I had an attempt at Junes song as I know quite a lot of NY stuff. Only problem is when I played it back , I realise I have the type of voice that would send a glass eye to sleep. Has anyone got any spare helium?


haha love it ...  glass eye to sleep!!   smile

NY, he does have that kinda nasal or yeah helium sound to him (suits him though).  I may have to attempt this one with a peg  on my nose to get the sound effects smile

Love this!  "Easy Beat ... on an Easy Street"


haha love it TF

One from me that came to mind .....

Easy Beat ..... left Easy Street
Off to tennis ...........on those fast feet
Racing and chasing that elusive ball ....
Game won or lost ....  it doesn`t matter,
Its the social side ......and a bit of chatter,
Then it`s off home again ...... music to create brother.

Wow thank you to everyone for the great idea`s -  great choices and i liked them all!  ..... and i confess i am a bit of a LOTR and Hobbit fan myself smile

After much thought, I decided i am going to stick with the ukulele theme ......................so have narrowed it down to either  ukerator (thanks Baldguitardude) or just ukelady or uke-a-lady moderator ......................

So here it is:   uke-a-lady moderator smile

Thanks easybeat and agree smile

Any one else going to attempt  this one before the next one starts in June?  I have loved all the versions so far, been fantastic hearing them.

Hi all,  thanks for the welcome, I only just found this thread tonight, must have missed it on my travels around Chordie.  I love the idea of a nick name for me, I have been racking my brain trying to think of one.  Suggestions? I will also continue to try and think of one, so far all the ones i have thought of seem very lame lol

OK I have just listened to everyone else's versions and, out of the now four versions here, I put mine at 27th......

Jan. Wow! It works great with the uke and you have a smashing voice.

Joe. Brill! Great to hear a 'bluesy' version of this song, it works well.

Mojo. Super! Another different take on this song and you did a great job with it.

I enjoyed listening to all three of these versions. Well done to all of you.

Roger

Roger.......... Awesome, totally different again.  That is what is so awesome about us all having ago at these covers, how each of us does it so differently and they are all good!  And you are definately NOT 27th!!!  I have never heard of Band in a box by the way, is it any thing like audacity (which i have downloaded but never used yet!).

Ok so Topdown aka Jeff is going to be in Vegas this weekend and we have decided to record June's song. Do y'all want me to embargo it until June 1 or can we fudge a bit? smile

Woohoo, record it!!!   Will look forward to hearing it .........but wait until 1 June to post wink

beamer, plenty of time yet, they cant go up before June anyway ....... try different chords maybe? or just make it your own version, your own style, using  the same lyrics.   I haven`t tried this one yet, but will give it ago smile

Wow mojo ............... as i said to Baldguitardude, you nailed it!  that was awesome, really enjoyed listening to it, foot was tapping away with a life of its own smile  What talent you both have!

That was awesome- way out of my league!

Really loved that style.
Way to go BGD!

Tigljk, it won`t be way out of your league ............. remember any song we can adapt to make our own, change it around to suit your style.  As an example, if one month a heavy metal song got picked, well i couldn`t sing that to save myself, so i would have to definitely change that around to suit my style.  Or some songs for example definately suit a male voice, in which case i will have to adapt to suiting my female voice smile
