Title: A fantastic cover
Post by: Wicked Deeds on December 18, 2020, 12:18:20 PM
By our very own PaulAds,

I've always enjoyed your work Paul. You are a fantastic songwriter and your own work would match this beauty any day.  However, I pressed the like button on this wonderful cover on your soundcloud page and it is on repeat play whenever I log on. It deserves to be shared. I absolutely love this.

Top quality Paul

Yeah Soundcloud auto-cued this one up for me too. But I enjoyed it so much, I played it three times!

I remember it when it first appeared on here. If he keeps practicing he’ll be quite good that fellah  ;)  :D 👍

This is a genius cover IMO because it becomes your song...

its sounds darker and more menacing...superb work @PaulAds (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=20253)

This is really good @PaulAds (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=20253) !  I don't really know the song very well, in fact it's only the chorus I vaguely recognise.  I've now listened to the original and this stands up brilliantly against it.

Top job Paul!

You obviously don’t listen to Jeremy Vine @PeteS (http://www.songwriterforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=22588) , he plays it weekly 🤣🤣
