Oh Yeah - RoxyFest

[ODH]

I didn't recognise the song from the title, then when I heard it I went "oh yeah".  That really is what it's called.

Tuesday evenings I get an hour or so when my wife takes my daughter to her dance class. I meant to finish this one then, instead I spent the hour giggling like a schoolgirl making the Bananarama Pyjama Drama song. Yesterday I managed to concentrate and get it over the line.

It's a fairly true cover, less slavishly so than the Strand one. GB keys, bass & drums, real uke and vocals.

I watched a video tutorial about mastering in GarageBand, this is trying it here.

Anyway, enjoy.

A well put together cover - enjoyed listening to this. I like how you can achieve so much with Garage Band!
I remember the original well as it was released during the summer that I met the future Mrs C so it always reminds me of that time.

this is a beautiful piece here Nick...so well recorded and lovely music and singing (and I would say it I heard it and didn't know it was you I could almost think it was JP , more so on the chorus (lovely singing)...

[Zoltan]

Nicely done and very moody!

... And hey that other song (Bananarama Pyjama Drama) is still playing in my head!

This came together nicely. I was not familiar with this so I listened to to reference tracks. You really nailed it. There a lot going on here. Nice job good cover

really great cover....great job for such a short working window.....

[BerryPatch]

Another fine Roxy Music cover. I love those synth stabs in the chorus, the arrangement is perfectly done.

[Greeny]

Beautifully done, Nick. So much attention to detail and respect to the original. It really is a lovely song and performance. Love the lushness you bring to the choruses. And nice job on the fade out. The extended fade out on the original is my favourite one ever. Brilliant stuff.
