Leykis101 Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 I am working with some kid's right now, I kind of recruited some kid's from the local seen, and got them together to see what it would sound like, of course I did all of this after discovering a singer that blew my fucking mind, he's fucking 18 years old, and he was singing in kind of a blues based band, but I heard him on one of their songs, and this dude isn't meant to sing blues, this dude is born to sing melodic rock, and it took me a minute to convince him to just come give it a try, so yesterday I got these guys together, only 2 of them knew each other, the rest are complete strangers, but they started jamming and all I could do was just sit and think what did I do? it cant be this easy, but we decided to cover a song, and they told me to pick the song, my mind was blank, this isn't something Ive ever even thought about, and im not generally a fan of covers, but I got home last night, and just hit shuffle on my laptop, just to see if anything stuck out as something I could give them, maybe a song that doesn't rock, but you hear that if performed right, could easily rock, then the Del Shannon song Runaway came on, and I thought, this is it, a good band could kill this song, it would absolutely rock, I meet with them Tuesday, what do you guys think of this, and do you have any suggestions if not this? please only 1 suggestion if you have one, im not trying to get so rattled I become overwhelmed, I'll hurry and find the link to this song, though im sure everyone of you know it, just in case, thanks metal brethren.

Secondly, the original Runaway is one of my all time favourite tracks. This is a great cover I think you'll appreciate. As for suggestions, I'll have to think about it.

CureTheSane Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 I think it's a good song to cover. Easy just to update and rock up a bit. But I'd go further and change the tempo a little, with a significant heavy drum as the stand out sound, a constant flowing picking guitar throughout and some vocal harmonies on the chorus. Maybe gang type vocals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
