Wheat Kings

Cover of Wheat Kings by Tragically Hip. Crappy guitar work, slightly less crappy vocals.

I'm not familiar with the original. This is pretty nice -- I like your voice, the sort of swallowed quality to it.

You seem to have a pretty good backup singer as well.

'Swallowed quality', I've never heard that before; it sounds slightly dirty, so I approve!

And yes, that's my backup singer, no sense of tempo, timing, tone, and only knows about 10 words. At least she didn't demand we sing 'Baby Beluga'.

Do you have a tiny little backup singer on this track?
