GNR, You Could Be Mine cover...

You Could Be Mine

My favorite cover is “Billie Jean” by Mike Henry and Justin Robinett.

Holy shit, that is great! Saved to favorites. Thanks!

Saw this on youtube about a year ago. Damn that girl has pipes.

You’re welcome. People with actual musical talent piss me off. I have none.

The kids in the GnR cover are really talented. Fun to see.

The Billie Jean cover: first of all, jeez!! The level of inner groove required as the switch off between drums, piano and vocals is wondrous. I can do some complex coordination with multiple guitar lines + vocals, but that was over the top.

I love musical communication, but man, those two had better be best friends or partners or something. The level of up-close work required to make that work is just astounding.

I will say that there is a fine line between musicality and a cool stunt. I am deeply impressed with their craft but don’t know that I need to see it again. Kind of like the conversation that happens when a new OK Go music video is released - what do you do when the stunt overshadows the music?

OK Go makes music?

Of course, I’m being facetious. They have a song or two that I like, but I’m not a huge fan of the band. The videos, however, I could watch all day. “White Knuckles” is one of my favorites, just because I love animals.

They have one called “Needing/Getting” that’s pretty awesome when you think about the preparation and set-up it took to create it.
