Default All Made Up - Self Cover (Video)

Performed this back in October, it's much more subdued video wise than the others but I was ready to make things simpler again anyway. It's just me singing and banging away on the guitar with some verb. I'm sort of covering myself since this is a song I wrote for my electric band which is on our CD - this is a stripped down acoustic version.

The sparkly effect on the glasses shouldn't be there, I just never got around to removing it.

I find this inspiring and I like your voice. I think you should crank that effect up to 1000. It's trippy.

Ah, I thought it might be overdone but if received well, it's ok with me. Thanks for listening and take care my friend.

I think I did this one in Davinci Resolve but I could have done this one in Reaper as easily minus the sparkles.

As other say, you have a great voice.
Nice done!
I would shortened a bit though.

LOL it is shortened. You are correct though, it wouldn't seem so long but there are other things going on in the CD version (length 6:05) that helps pass that time. I removed about 1.5 minutes that was an outro but probably should have cut it more. Thanks for listening.

I like the sparkly effect.

Nice balanced sound, and it's honest which I always dig.

Thanks guys, I hope to get back creating them soon as they force me to improve in ways just sitting around and picking don't (and I'm currently ramping a new cover band that gigs starting next week so I need to get that out of the way).

Unfortunately I was just diagnosed with "Chronic Idiopathic Hives"... Translation, I'm apparently a bastion of health at 55 (based on god knows how many tests I've been through with the DRs since it started) but my external immune system (aka skin) was triggered and now it won't shut the hell up so I have hives every day since mid-December. Apparently this is sort of well-known condition where any ole thing can trigger and the trigger doesn't stop after what caused it went away.

They aren't always 'that' bad and I feel great, but they unpredictably come and go here and there 24/7, they aren't like normal hives really, well they are but they are larger and just show up wherever the hell they wish, making it annoying to make videos with a bump the size of a goddamn small pancake on my head LOL. As far as gigs, screw it, everyone's going to just have to deal with it if they occur then. There's a very expensive medication I can take once or twice that should reset the trigger so fingers crossed.

Very cool, Karbo! You always manage to get a good balance between voice and guitar. Good job!

It's prolly a good thing that you are getting these out of the way before your band starts to gig. Good to scratch that itch now...

Oh... that was just... bad...

That's a good song with a strong chorus. I would like to read the lyrics, they sounded interesting. I listen mainly to the singing and the music, I rarely catch every word in a song, just my nature.

You have a good voice, I enjoyed listening to it.
