It turns out that I learned a few things while working on this cover of Give it Away
- You can mix guitar and synths more than you'd think
- wah pedals and distorted Les Pauls don't mix super well when you are doing chords (perhaps a tad specific, but important for me, actually)
- I maybe don't like this song as much as I thought I did ๐
- I maybe don't like doing covers as much as I once did
The last one is the most interesting to me. I used to do covers all the stinking time... But I also skipped out on writing original music for years so... I wonder if that was just me covering for not coming up with anything original? And maybe now that I'm feeling confident enough to make original songs I'm less keen to do covers?
lol, I really am not sure. Just kind of an interesting observation at this point.
