Rock Me Amadeus was a hit for the Austrian artist Falco in 1985. Kenny asked me to do the verses in German - the music and all the other vocals are by Kenny and sound awesome !

Zehr gut (is that how you pronounce it?)

Inspired choice of song, and it works. I like your version better than the original.
Overdrive - Distortion - Hyperactivity

Wow, even with the staccato use of the voice. Nice collab guys.
I do have an electric bass and guitar, i do have an acoustic guitar. I even have a keyboard and a Roland drum set What I seem to miss is skills. So to cure my at least 40y frustration I dicovered my instrument being my voice. So I finaly had the nerve to take singing lessons and make my voice heared thanks to Songcrafters.

Excellent cover! Very faithful to the original and your German sounds great. Massive sounding chorus!

Thanks everyone.
I had wanted to do this cover for along time and the Stumbling block was it was originally sung in German.
During a chat pete had mentioned he spoke some German and that pricked up my ears lol.
He did a fantastic job.
I had originally thought of using the keyboards but it's all guitar except for  the brass section and that's the Roland stratocaster with the GR.
I think using guitars was the right choice, it's a good song to show how the structure plays out in a different genre.
Thanks again all.
