Dude , this rocks !  

You have a cool talent. Great voice. Its always interesting to hear Lana´s songs sung by someone, specially

with a male´s voice. It is a totally diferent song. You pulled it off very nice.

Congratulations !

 

You should go on that TV show for new talents! Get a record deal.

 

 

Cheers

MAX

Heck thanks @MXDH @Creyk @maxthehitman 

 

Very kind of you all. I just enjoy singing these since I love them so much. Let me know if there's any that you might want to hear . . . I guess I have a lot of time now thanks to quarantine!!

I love the lyrics of the demo so I stayed in my pyjamas today and sang this:

 

 

I kept on fucking up the lyrics and I was so loud I was worries that @@YUNGATA was going to hear me across the city. so I'm not totally happy with its but glad to make it! 

[Yosemite 23,786]

[Yosemite 23,786]

Better be my all time fav Radio

I'll be looking forward to it

[YUNGATA 14,955]

@takeitdoen

Didn't hear you but one of my neighbours was singing Let It Go from Frozen for like half an hour in their backyard so there's that

nice cover btw!

it's you, it's you, it's all for you 

 

I was going to sing a bit of Young and Beautiful at the end ("I know you will, I know you will" etc) but literally changed my mind while I was singing. It really struck me how sad this song could be interpreted too, and a little spiteful?

 

Also for ~PRIDE MONTH~ I did Lucky Ones with "boy and boy meet by the grand design" because I am getting a little sad at how queer men are presented in media as being plagued by tragedy all the time. Maybe this time they can just be LUCKY?

Thank ya. When I lived in Brisbane the school across the road from my house used to use 'Let It Go' as the bell between classes so I really, really feel this story in my bones.

Yeah this song can be so versatile. I still remember that one interview where she said this one was about a guy that came back into her life and her life was sweet cause he came back.

Amazing cover hun

 

Now, another request: marry me lmao

[takeitdoen 10,627]

Now, another request: marry me lmao

omg my first marriage proposal! Let's make a pact if we're still single at 40, this is it. 

 

This is legally binding btw. 

[Creyk 11,699]

That cover is Lucky Ones is amazing. I feel like you captured every nuance in her voice perfectly from the album version, I love these stripped-down covers of songs. The Lust For Life one was good too.

[takeitdoen 10,627]

@@sweetlikecinnam0n well, they say that the world was built for two . . .

 

@@Creyk thank you! The song is obviously not in my range but it's legitimately just adorable. I wanted to catch the cheeky vibe of the demo, which sounds a lot more romantic than the album version (which I still really like, but it's a little too demure). 

 

PS I also did a few other non-Lana covers of some of my other favourite artists...

• Got Gold by Tom Rosenthal
• Lodestar by Sarah Harmer

[takeitdoen 10,627]

 

Wanted to cover this for a while because it's my favourite Lana - and I got VERY EMOTIONAL at the third chorus lmaoooo. I posted this in lyrics but "I guess they really got the best of us, didn't they? / They said that love would be enough, but it wasn't" my favourite lyrics by Lana. The idea that love is supposed to be the force that conquers all, but we actually exist under this divine prank that we cruelly only find out about when things fall apart.

 

 

and I still love him

I'm gonna cover Wild One next (and Sky Full of Song by FATM) and I think I'll be done for a bit - but who knows in isolation . . . 

[annedauphine 35,889]

wait... waIT... WAIT.... you're a beautiful man omg

[Venice 6,933]

wait... waIT... WAIT.... you're a beautiful man omg

 

I wanted to say the same but didn't wanna take away from the covers and all that but whatever  Cuuuuute.
