Blah blah blah (cover version)

This is a pointless instrumental cover version of Meatbomb's recent a capella (one extreme to the other), Blah blah blah for the MeFi Music challenge, so now you can sing along to the tune*!

*Err. Probably not great to sing along to, actually, especially towards the end....

I had somehow missed the original. This is a great cover nthdegx, and I'm sure lots of other people are going to ask the same, but is there a way to sample the original and mix it with this one? I know, Meatbomb's version is very loose in terms of time, but perhaps it can be cut up and reassembled. If I had digital edition tools I'd do it.

Anyways, congrats for the cover, is very nice. Also, somebody proposed a "MefiMuCover" tag, so you can add it to your song so that it will show up with the other covers from the Challenge.

Ha! I was strongly considering dropping hints of Meatbomb's vocals here and there so maybe I'll go on and do a full on vocal remix of the original - it could be done as you suggest in an intensively cut-up way. It'd be easier if I dropped the tempo of this version, but that'd take the fun out of it. Adding tags accordingly. Cheers, guys.

Oh fantastic, then it's a cover and a mashup somehow. I agree with you, slowing down the tempo would kill part of the joy.

I'll be looking forward to the new version.

Ooh, I am doing the happy dance right now!!1 If you like, I cold also do proper vocals for this... but the mashup of the original rough draft is cool to, if that's what the people demand.

Hey Meatbomb! I'm glad you like it! If you want to record vocals for it I'd love to knock up a vocal version.
