Cover Version Challenge? (1 Viewer)

[Space]

so whats a good song to do? i know fuck all talking heads. something with one chord would be good.

I'm planning on improvising my cover, fuck spending loads of time learning a song.

See my idea, I'm gonna be happy if it's even vaguely similar to the as yet undecided original.

FAO th winner of cover competition. Guided By Voices would be a great band for next month. Just a thought.

Whats this about winners and competitions?
I thought this was just a bit of fun, nay, a challenge.

I think I just saw you walking down harrington street. you looked stressed out. should I be taking this as seriously? is there hard cash to be won?

I'm gonna try to do Air. Have an idea but its all very hypothetical so far... up in air you might say.

who picks the winner?

can we get celebrity judges?

 

[Franco]

Is the challenge for you to make them, or for us to listen to them?

I thought the 'winner" got to choose the next month's artist. How the winner was chosen, pissypants (typing that feels dirty) never really explained. Maybe a poll on here?

I'm going to have to ramp up my game here. I anticipate some sterling efforts landing in this thread. Has anyone got the number of the Dublin Gospel Choir?

I see trouble ahead...

stick up a poll of all the entries

i'm having a bash at 'what a day that was', mainly so i can use this disgusting guitar effect i found.
fun tune to play though

 

[Pantone247]

there's going to be so much crying

we start a new thread and everyone sticks there songs up on that, maybe stickie the thread, but keep it just for songs and not chitter chatter... that way people can just listen to the stuff with 8 pages of Blah blah blah... the can stay on this thread... yah?

He'd probably do it. Good idea.

 

[Goodbye]

I'm in this for the laugh.
Not into this competition thing at all.

You must have. I got the weight of the world on my shoulders today. Talking heads arn't helping.
If you said Hi and did'nt get an answer, I apologize. I like my walkman loud, keeps reality at bay.

God no way is there a winner. I don't think the "rules" have changed since the first post. I think this should be just for fun, but that maybe anyone who should submits a song should be allowed to submit an artist for consideration for the following month. I think someone suggested then doing a poll to choose one, which would seem fair enough.

Yeah I was thinking of that too. Or if someone's feeling amazingly productive they sould make a podcast and put it on the podcast thread.

The whole "this has to be good bacause I love the band" thing is so true, but fuck it, I'm just gonna enjoy doing it. I'm pretty sure we can take as read that none of us are better than Talking Heads doing their own songs.

An S.A.W. month would be incredible. Bagsy these guys:

(p.s. this is the most on-topic thread I've ever seen on thumped. Could someone please have a pointless argument or post a lolcat?)

yeah the more I think about it the more horrible it's going to get... I really don't think any sort of poll voting thing is going to make anyone happy... but whatevers, it's all about the choons!
