Stand By Me Cover

This entry was posted by Grengama on Tuesday, 2 February, 2010 at

Well, I’ve recorded my first ever cover song. I’ve played cover songs live before (Quinn the Eskimo, Come and Get It, Johhny B. Goode, and Why Don’t We Do It In The Road — you know, standard stuff), but have never attempted to record them. This particular one was requested by my wife. I’ve never attempted it before, but it’s such a classic and one of Ben E. King’s best — I thought I’d give it a try.

Of course, I’m heavily influenced by John Lennon’s version (as you’ll hear), but hope that I’ve been able to inject some of my own Kreativität.

    Great Tod! I could feel the emotion in your voice–the angst, the desperation, the passion! Nice work. I want to record one when we visit in July :-)
