re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
Ay dios mio, fine lets just drop this conversation.

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
you're the one that jumped on the high horse, i had my opinion and you criticized me, what was i supposed to do? say you're a real cool guy and thank you for acknowledging my existence?

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
Lady, relax. As you can see in the description: "Which ones do >>>>YOU THINK<<<< sound better than the originals" No one has to agree with me.

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
i know who bucket head, he's a crazy guitar dude what wears the bucket with the funeral sticker as we all know and does a fair bit of work for soundtracks and with les claypool and the likes. i know what a cover is, don't question my understanding of that, i just refuse to see how you can suggest that a version of the song played exactly the same minus the lyrics can be better than the original, is it actually a case you find it to be better or just liked it and thought you would be cool and post it? By the way; I'm Griggsy, nice to meet ya.

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
Well, it seems like you dont know who buckethead is, He doesnt sing. And "Covers" are songs that are played by other people. It doesnt have to be note for note like the original. And plus, who are you?

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
yeah righto but you've entered it in a competition for covers > originals. But how can it be better that it is than the original if it's emulating the original piece note for note and missing a key factor?

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
That's why it's called a "COVER" genius. lol

re: Shout
nope, no and nein

re: High Hopes
alright i'm a massive pink floyd fan, and this is one of my favorite songs, and i thought this isn't too bad at the start, it didn't compare to the original, and it only got worse

re: Buckethead's Wrathchild
it's good, but nowhere as good as maidens, it's pretty much exactly the same note for note just - vocals

re: The Wrong Trousers - Video Killed the Radio Star
