Being Boiled - Human League Cover - Boss BR600

[SharksDontSleep]

Jeez, I've been meaning to catch a tune of yours, they're always cool. I still have "Can't Stand Losing You" on my mp3 player.

Cheers Launched, I'm honoured to be part of your mp3 collection

Excellent! I didn't recognize the song title at first (although I should have because I have the Travelogue album on vinyl), but I remembered it when the vocals came in. Great cover. Travelogue has some good songs on it. I especially liked "The Black Hit of Space", "Life Kills", and "Crow and a Baby". I haven't listened to that album in ages but you've inspired me to dig it out.

Nice one 64. Glad you enjoyed it. I've been working with a friend lately who produced this some years ago:

I'm trying to get him on this forum too ... but he's shy!!

Oh nice one Sharky

Thanks Haylie

Nice production, good Sound. Like it very much! Takes me back to the 80's.

Cheers Sigi ... It takes me back too ... In fact in my mind ... I'm still there!!

Great production here and great performance,this is piepod bound . Love the overall vibe,Well done.

Wow ... Another glutton for punishment ... Cheers & Thanks

Must profess not to knowing this track - was expecting 'Fade to Grey' to come in at any time :-)

Hey cheers Bruno. You're not too far out with Fade To Grey (1980). Being Boiled was 1978 & re-released in 1980 

I don't to what extent you are being faithful to the original, but this is a good song and a superb record and its going to my iPod.  Thanks.

Can't believe it ... Another aural sufferer I tried to stay close to the original, but added a twist or 2. Cheers for the comments.

Great cover mate, makes me feel so old hearing this.......
Make me feel older and do Underpass by John Foxx

What!! Make you feel as old as I actually am I wouldn't wish that on anyone
John Fox ... Now there's a challenge. I have thought about trying to do Artifical Life the old Ultravox song.

Don't know the tune but I dig this

Oh Hooky ... If you want a treat ... Give Travelogue a listen (see 64 above) ... Now that's an album.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.
As usual, if I've missed anyone, I'm truly sorry.
I like to thank everyone personally, if they've given their time up listening & commenting, so I honestly don't want to leave anyone out.

Great job! This early Human League classic is a long-standing favourite of mine and I know it very intimately. This is all put together very lovingly and with great attention to detail. Fab!

Gotta be worth an OTD bump

Great job, SDS.  I tend to prefer early Human League, more avant guard.

[Geir]

Great bump of a great cover of a song I don't know

Impressive!!!!!

How did I miss this first time round. Thanks for the bump.

It's fantastic. The league are one of my favourites bands. This is a great cover. I love the layering.
