I just noticed that I haven't done a Japanese cover in a long time.

Seems like I refuse to do the whole karaoke thing anymore. haha

Anyways, this is a soft acoustic cover of 'Dream Life 6:13' by; 'FAKE?'. It was a birthday present for a fan of my band.
The lyrics are about a man who doesn't want to let go of a fleeting moment in a lovers life while the morning tries to resolve him. Pretty good stuff.
Bass, guitars, vocals and tambourine all done by me. er.. just read the story thing in the soundclick page. Might be a little out of rhythm because I did the guitar and vox in one take then added all the other instruments.

Dream Life 6:13 by; FAKE?

The next song is strictly for fun. Just me screwing on the acoustic guitar making up lyrics and goofing off. I had some solid lyrics but you'll be able to tell when Im just making up stuff. Also at the end I play couple of different guitar styles.

Enjoy and listen well, this isn't pop eccentric.

I love your acoustic covers. They hold so much emotion =).
And your instrumentals are so damned awesome.

i hate you Chris.

no, i love you. i just dislike you for taking my first hahaha

The instrumental for 'Dreamlife 6:13' is beautiful. It's pretty amazing you added most of the instruments after. Chris is right, the emotion you put in it is so good. You say that you're a musician first right? That's probably why. There's a lot of people who can sing but can't throw themselves in when their singing. I think people who are more open and diverse with music and know different parts of it tend to be more into it, you know?

Hmm...the title sounds familiar xDDDD JACKYYYYYYYY explicit lyrics??? I'm UNDERAGEEEE

*sighs* I'll block my ears.

The guitar is <333 Seriously. I could just copy and paste the chords over and over and put it on repeat and listen to it when I sleep.

I like the ocean metaphor.

hahaha naanananaananana....

The music kinda overpowers your voice so I can't hear any swearing anyway. xD

The different styles you threw in were cool >__< Play 3 minutes worth of guitar one day and I'll make up a tune for it hahahaha

Jacky, don't stop with the covers. I will cyber punch people who purposely decide not to listen to you.
MATHMATICIOUS.

Dark -
Thanks babe, thanks for always supporting me.
I like playing the acoustic for you girls. First time I used a tambourine too. ^^
Sorry I missed out on your B.day. I'll sing you something nice next time.

Rai-
~laughs~ must of wrote a page of aggravation but erased it in a calming moment.
Thank you, Rai. I shouldn't expect people here, to pay attention to those kinds of things. And I'm glad your learning to open your ears more. Did I tell you that I'm very proud of you?

Haha, I'm happy you liked that rant of an original. I liked those chords I was using.

But you know my credo about this whole performers thread crap.

I realize how out of place I am here. I just wanna have fun and find people who have similar musical aspirations and tastes. But its few and far inbetween.. what with all these audition and timeless threads.

It's like getting a fanbase to switch from Josh Groban (Or however the hell you spell his name) to 'Radio Head'. Not trying to change anyone, just a little disheartened people want to listen to the same goddamn songs all the time.

Oh and yeah, if you want to work on an original with me, rai. Just let me know, I'll try to make sometime.

wow, new fan. ohmy.gif i love your songs.
your voice has that rockish vibe to it and i love it.
and of course i love your guitar parts. how do you sing and play the guitar at the same time? that's so hard for me; still practicing. haha
to you may electric? i think you'd sound awesome with the drive on and maybe a whammy bar. tongue.gif
haha and loved the nanana's in the second song.

Thanks for keeping tabs on my songs and covers. Theres a lot more to come in the near future with my band. But I'm sure I'll cover an acoustic song or two during that time. Thank you for listening to all my work, it means a whole lot to me. I got a little discouraged (again) about doing online stuff, but fans keep me alive and kicking (the jams, that is. happy.gif) Rock and slide~

BORicha -
A new fan, na? Hahaha, this is great! Thank you for takin the time to listen to this dumb punk who doesn't give a crap about what 'flow control' is. ^_- And I mostly play electric but I learned that acoustic styles win over the few swooning hearts. Takes alot of practice. Before I put a song on this thread I practice for a bit. The freestyle one though, just came out of nowhere. ~laughs~ yeah, that whole "nananana" part, I couldn't think of anything to say.

heres the lyrics to that freestyle though;

FLIPPING OFF A BOX OF KITTENS - by: Jacky Knife

It's kind of funny
It's kind of funny how things never ever change

Young hearts tied to a string that cheered the sounds that you'll never hear again
But I feel it fXXk right off, right now
Get out of my head

Black blatent stare
Purple blanket hanging on a clothes line
Can't believe... It's not really there?

It's not really there..

You said that when the sky turns from a blue to red
You'd help me pick up the pieces but you left instead
You left me here in a ocean that I can't swim
A ocean that you ditched me in

I can't believe I ran so far away
You know, You know you want me to believe

Fxxk this role and all its stupid lies
A sun disco hidden, charged within your windows
Cracked but solid 'brights' goin on, on and on

wawawawawa
nananananana fxxking trees
click click pop tree leaves

I feel like a fool for knowing I wasn't the..

Maybe your skin wasn't so soft as at that time
Maybe your lips weren't mine, but still I tried
And I know, I know where to go

A store really far..

Bringing some chips, a pack of cigarettes
You don't know
But don't ever fade away

Who needs a drink?

It may just be my general love for accoustic but I quite possibly love your songs.
Flipping off a box of kittens amused me if just for the name and tree randomness.
