EBS_freak Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-0vvoBoF5A&feature=related[/media] Oh my God. How can you kill this song's groove to this extent? Bass player needs shooting. And the singer needs to stick to the melody. Just as well it fades right?

HMX Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Found it hard to get past the intro vocals. Yikes, and the constant slapping. NOOOOO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderthumbs Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 What utter w***fest. The bass player needs a serious talking too. It's not about you, you tit. It's about the song. There's a reason the bass line is what it is. It works. Yours doesn't. Cock. Absolutely awful cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I forced myself to watch 1:32 of it - imagine if you'd been in the audience and paid to be subjected to this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmettC Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 To be honest, if I was in the audience, the vocals would make me leave before the bass started. And once everybody had gone home he might aswell enjoy himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) What do you expect? This is a typical scenario played out every other night all over the country. Office workers who like to think they're a bit 'special', because they're in a 'band'. Should we judge them for it, lest we be judged..? YEAH!!

JakeBrownBass Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Eeesh, the bass players heard the original and decided to totally ignore the groove and feel of the song. And don't get me started on the singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skej21 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Typical case of 'run before you can walk' musicality... Singer trying to be fancy without having the technique to back it up (therefore fails with her timing and intonation) and same can be said of most of the players. Bassist has obviously only just (half) learnt a single basic slap technique and has tried to implement it in a song that doesn't need it, to the detriment of the ensemble, the original groove, his own timing and any form of taste. I bet he also calls himself a 'semi-professional' or 'professional' musician because he gets paid. Muppet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immo Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) I guess thet's why the bass player's head remains in shade most of the time. But, as the rest of you, it's the vocals I can't stand. Ouch! Edited June 8, 2012 by Immo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like "Somebody Else's Guy" anyway, so that original video was like watching someone splat a custard pie in Rupert Murdoch's face. Watching this version of "What's Going On?" is like watching someone punch my mum in the face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
