Cover of Steven

Mr.Sick · Post by **Mr.Sick** » Wed May 12, 2010 6:20 am

Hi all.I recently recorded a cover of Alice Coopers "Steven" and I am looking for someone who could contribute vocals to it.

This was a labour of love for me and I need someone to help with the final piece.

Here is a link to the track.

Check it out and if you think it is up to par and would like to contribute let me know.

I am new to this fourm and I would like to get to know all of you.I like that this one doesn't have thousands of members.It makes it easier to really feel like a close community with a smaller group of people with the same intrests.

Cheers

It's a beautiful cover! Not that I'm very much of a singer, but i knew every word to the song. And that says a lot about your musical skills! Did you really do everything on this song alone?

The drums,although I do play I have to program in until I get a house and can set up a better,bigger,studio.Apartments and live drums don't exactly go together.

I am fairly new to the keyboard but I think I am progressing faster than most because of my long guitar background.

So yea,I did it all myself over the past week or so but I am pretty amature compared to a lot of people out there.

Like I said,I am looking for someone to sing on it and anyone interested can give it a shot.

Thanks again.

Well, I almost thought about giving it a try, but I don't have the recording gear, and I don't have the voice for this song. I mean, that creepy singing is really hard to do! But I bet it's halve as hard as playing this song like you did.

You did a very good job, from drums 'till keyboards. I have no instrument knowledge (except for djembe), but according to me you did a very good job! And the other songs I listened on that site were awesome to

Great job. What a fun song to do.

Good luck with it.

That was outstanding. Unfortunately: I've nothing to offer in return!

I can sing, but I never like the way I sound recorded, and belting it out like Alice might be tough, but I may take a stab at it.

I'm almost tempted to have a go although i'd probably make the mistake of trying to sound too much like Alice

I can make the track availible to download for anyone who wants to give it a go.

I'll post the link soon.

Cheers

Hey everyone.

Sorry I have been gone for so long.My computer pretty much committed suicide and I have a lot of work related stuff going on aswell.I have a few projects that I would like to get started very soon.

1)I am still looking for the right singers for this song.The majority of the song is accually spoken word so being able to sing is not really required.What is more important is being able to play the role of Steven.

Like I said before,anyone that wants to give it a try can.I am not a professional so I don't demand pros.

2)I am going to make a video to go with the song.Since the song is highly conceptual along with the album and pretty much everything AC,I feel I should follow that trend with the video aswell.If anyone has any ideas they would like to see in the video,feel free to share.Any ideas used I will be sure to give proper credit for.

Again,this is all a labour of love.I am in no way making a profit from any of this.It's my hobby and I don't want people to think I am scamming anyone.

Thank you to everyone for your support and encouragement.

Great cover, love the guitar work on it.
I am interested in doing vocals, just have to figure out a way to record them.

If you make it available to download i'll have a go at doing some vocals for you.

Awesome - Can't sing, got no money to fly to Canada, so I guess that's me out of the picture.

That is brilliant!

nice job Mr Sick, I added a vocal for you using an iPhone app and a little mixing on the PC so it isn't studio quality and done in one take, but hope you and others enjoy it anyway.

I now need to go and lie down in the quiet room, Mom is calling

Remember there is only one Alice Cooper this is just a tribute!

That vocal performance would make Alice proud. No doubt.
