Title: Dancing In The Dark
Post by: djbride on May 29, 2010, 10:19:37 PM
Acoustic version of this Bruce Springsteen song.
I thought it was Unplugged Fest this month but I got it ass backwards.
To many dead brains cells I guess.  :)

I hated - just because I'm also working in a DitD version, I intended to post soon. Apart from that, it is very nice, congratulations!

Sorry dasilvasings, I just wanted to post this because I play it on acoustic for people and they seem to like it so I posted it here. There is always room for other covers post yours also we would all love to hear it.

I'm not a huge Springsteen fan (sorry), but I really liked this version Dave. You got a lot of feeling in this by slowing it down. Very nice performance as well - I can see why people like it.

Cheers,

Nigel

Thnaks ferryman, Old rottenhead and Tony.
I usually don't post cover songs but I really enjoyed recording this one.
Bruce has done acoustic version of so many of his songs but I had never heard this one. It is not my favoite Bruce song but I think by slowing it down it takes the popular conutation out of the song and makes the lyrics stand out.
Thanks for listening and for your comments.

I always like it when someone comes up with something I would never expect. I've never been a huge Springsteen fan but this is a great tune and you made it sound really cool. Great Job!
