Tiny Dancer

June 18, 2007 1:46 AM

o, here's my version of "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John. I had origially started doing a much more complicated version in which I planned to use the E-bow for the string sections and do a bunch of fancy overdubs. After listening to JLee's version of Eternal Flame, however, I decided to do a more stripped-down version.

Now, a problem I have (one that no doubt is a result of my obsessive love of The Smashing Pumpkins) is that I have a really hard time controlling how many overdubs I do. So, although I originally intended my "stripped-down" Tiny Dancer to be one guitar and some singing, I allowed myself to overdub one guitar and several backing vocal parts. Anyway, here it is. Hope you like it. Let me know.

It didn't crash! (yet) Wow...your playing is so beautiful, I got goosebumps!! I think the "unplugged" versions are always better personally. Good choice :)

I like it, but don't think it's your strongest effort; I think you sang it an octave too low. I don't know if that was to make it easier to hit the "Hold me closer..." lines, or if you just feel like the lower octave fits the stripped down version better. But I think when you sing that low, you are out of the strongest/most dynamic range of your voice.
