    &

    and it's the only time Slash ever did vocals/was the only real duet ever between the two Slash & Axl..

    It's kinda stupid that...
    The only song I'm most confident with, (in terms of knowing the words and all of that) is also the most offensive..

    I also would like to say;
    I am a member of PRS and they're actually based in the town over from me/in Streatham.


    **It's also worth sharing that PRS and ASCAP have cross representation.
    So being in PRS, I get ASCAP in the US (and those in ASCAP/BMI) get PRS in the UK.

    (Seeing Marc Bolan and PRS there reminded me of that).

    I would never post a cover on here if I didn't first notify PRS; it's what I do.
    I upload, submit to PRS, then post in this thread; In that order. - If I've recorded it or used it to play along to in my recording I'm sharing.

    Day 2 of my starting to sing/Yesterday.


    I recorded it for my Instagram, that's why it's only a minute (if that).

    "We did 20 takes - and that was the best one."

    Me & Three Little Pigs right now.

    I don't know about you, but I remember this song.

    Rolling in The Deep . . . Performed by Adele, Chester as well as Arethra Franklin! I think the original version belongs to Adele, but I'm not sure. I do like her version the best though.

    GNR truly has to get credit for being the band that most gloriously self-destructed. Incredible start out of the gates then nada.....should have called it a day when they lost Izzy

    Not that it is a favourite or anything close, but still a very nice voice and catchy melody:

    I like this Russian girls cover of the Swedish song in the spoiler. Probably because I "have a thing" for Russian, but also because it is a kickass song:thumbsup:


    The verision below is actually better than the original imo. The Swedish is very good too for someone who doesn't speak it :D:


    Original
