Coco has graciously allowed me to record and post a countrified cover version of his song "The Words (Without You)". I'm in the process of teaching the song to my band (The Cutaways) and our style is a little different from the Bad Martini style. I needed a demo to play for the rest of the guys.
Thanks again, Coco, for writing great songs!
You will find my humble submission in the Music section of my Profile!

Dec 05, 2004 08:01 pm No problemo Jim...and may I be the first to say, I love this version of ma wee song.
Its cool. It is very cool. I like the way you sing the song, I like the geetars and the alterations to the rythmic feel of the song and I like the alterations to the structure. In fact, I like the whole song and the way ya done it here.
Recording wise, it's clean, well panned/eq'd and I can hear everything loud n'clear. I hear the bass/geetar/drums and vocals with no issues so its a thumbs up on the technical side, sounds DARN good for a demo.
In short, its a darn good version to my ears but I am a little biased :-D !!
Cheers for the words and I hope the Cutaways enjoy the song too...
All the best...
Coco.

Dec 05, 2004 11:11 pm Most excellent Jim! A very good version of Coco's song. The song really lends itself well to a country version, and you've done a great job with it.
Nice job on the mix as well. :)

Dec 07, 2004 01:55 pm This is indeed, a great song. Very cool rendition of it too. All around good ideas, and good everything. This is just cool.
[edit]
Honestly the lyrics in this song are insanely good.
I'm loving the chorus!
