I think a few of us will just knock up new cover versions of songs we fancy reworking...while the rest of the forum roll their eyes and potentially dislocate their scrolling thumbs 😀

Would you fancy doing one? It'd be good to have you on board...your superb version of Billy Ocean's Red Light Spells Danger still sticks in my mind!

Yeah - why not? Haven't done covers since a campfire sing-along 2 years ago :D

@PaulAds, you’ve inspired me to go for a huge song! Whether I can pull it off or the song beats me I have no idea, we’ll see.
@pompeyjazz When is the close date? 
Cheers

I want to do "Only You", like the Platters did it. Anyone want to produce and mix it for me? I did find a backing track, but, while singing with one of those is nice enough for a live performance, in a recording I don't think it sounds like my voice is mixed in. Because it isn't, I suppose....

Couldn't wait...I uploaded my karaoke version. How bad is it? (the "mix", that is)
