My first RPM cover of 2011. This one is "Like This" by The Missed Connections. I seem to have taken a darker turn with the song than Amelia did. It wasn't intentional, but it seems to be what I do when I cover her songs.
@Mischief - are you referring to the backing vox? That's all me. 2 guitars, bass, Addictive Drums, and 4-5 voices.
I assume "steezy" is something good. = )
Chester Arthur was the president
But no one remembers him
What about you?
He served a term with no vice president
And no one resident
To tell him what to do
He came to office by a bullet's grace
Garfield lost his place
And Arthur took…

A very strange spy story, co-written by Keith Landry. We were trying for wacky. We succeeded.
Raised in the Ozarks in witness protection, his parents turned on the mob
As a boy, he loved "We Are the World," now saving it is his job
A master…

A true story about some of my odd dreams
If the world's strongest man
Could hold the world in the palm of his hand
Would he crush us all into dust?
As a way to punish us
These are the kind of things
That seem to occupy me

The cover I did off Uglifruit's 2010 RPM submission. The drums are a pair of hotrod sticks, that I made, hitting my keyboard table. The "kick drum is the stick hitting the pop screen while the mic was on.
I still need to fade...
Inspired by the book Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. An earworm (or brainworm as Sacks espouses) is that catchy melody that sticks in your brain that you just can't shake.
This is a cover of a song by Sister Savage, from her kickin' 2010 RPM Challenge album, Juped 2k10. It also introduces the genre of acoustic crossdressed spacecheese (these damn kids today with their flying cars and their hyperspecialized genres…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode

:D this is awesome! I love it :) The acoustics are awesome!
Are those synths you're using? Your voice is steezy as hell <3 loving it. (I dig the Domo picture too)
Hi Tim! :) This tune is how I met you! Still love it.
Pretty cool!
Nice song, nice performance! Good power-pop guitar sound.
very Strokes-ish guitar...nice
Can I double heart this? Fantastic!

Haunting. Beautiful.
Impressive. I like what you did with the drum work and the guitar is really pretty.
This is about 24 kinds of cool. Well done.
Wow. Just wow. This just draws me in and mesmerizes me.
Oh yeah! Great bit of moodiness and I really dig the instrumental breaks.
Nice job. I really like the guitar work.
Absolutely wonderful job, Keith. Your version is better than mine. And thanks for adding the much-need bridge lyrics!
The first 17 seconds of this song is everything I want to do when I make music.
Stunning. Just absolutely beautiful. Wonderful work, Richard.
OH MY! This is SO MUCH FUN! You took a great song and put a tremendous spin on it. Well done!
Absolutely lovely. Wonderful guitar work.
I'm really digging the "bop bop bop". All great pop songs should have hand claps and "bop bop bop"!
