The title of my post is from the lyrics of my latest YouTube cover video. Bye Bye Love/Movin In Stereo Written by The Cars. Not my usual kind of cover to do but I enjoyed the challenge that it is to do. The time signatures of The Cars signature style sets them apart. Incredibly complex while a lot of the actual music is rather basic. That and the unusual and quirky vocals of Ric Ocasek. Impossible nearly to cover lol! Hey but I had fun trying! I seriously was a challenge and I never did perfect it but by this take, I decided to call it good and be done lol... So, for what it's worth, here was my rough draft...

It was interesting that the same day that I created this Cars Cover, I received this notification from AudioCopy (the app that I use to record my music for SoundCloud).
This was so much fun to see! I made the top #5 favorite list! Made me chuckle because all of the other the others who are listed here are electronic music. I guess this particular cover of mine fits because I used a few synthesizer keyboard voices to create this on my keyboard.
The other interesting thing about this track is that AudioCopy was having technical issues when I created the track. The app recorded this track in mono, not stereo. Made me so sad! I will have to re-record it in stereo sometime lol! Anyway, it's been fun to see all of the places that this track has been heard. All over the world thanks to the bit of promo AudioCopy gave me!

A fun boon from left field! Just like any kind of art, music is so subjective! Sometimes beauty is only in the eye of the beholder and other times, a lot of people seem to appreciate it!
I have tweeted my YouTube Channel Link to a few local Phoenix casinos to see if I can make my way into playing at one of the lounges... Wish me luck as now would be a really good time for me to make some money with all of this. I need to make a life change and enough money to do that would be an amazing blessing!
