A cover I started last night because it has been in my head allllll freakin week and I had to get it out. I recorded piano, bass, simple drums (kik/snr/hat), all vocals, and guitar lead last night and this morning.  This afternoon I brought it over to my friend Neil's place.  He added some additional (real) drums.

Not quite done yet, I still have to add rhythm guitar and do some mixing and mastering (this demo is a little squashed) edit: not anymore.

Here is a soundcloud link for now, when it is totally finished I will upload it here.  It's about 93% done.

I think it is sounding pretty slick so far.
