Cheer Up Charlie
June 5, 2009 5:12 PM
I learned this song on acoustic a week ago to try and best my roommate's version of "Somewhere Out There" from American Tale. I also needed to test out some new equipment in my studio. Then this happened. Let me know what you think.

The original was perfect - for its audience. Everybody in my age group can remember this song. We loved watching our Willy Wonka on the VHS.
Sincere thanks for the comments.

Never heard this before - like it! Mix could be a bit tighter perhaps. Vocal gets a bit lost. But loadsa fun and perfect for late night at a festival when everyone is steamin...!

Vocals get mixed low where I come from. So yeah, you're right MD. I'd totally love to play this late after a set of balls out metal just to get everyone stupid. It'll happen, for sure; as long as I keep my dreams in view.

Oh man, there was a song in there! I don't like the original, I gotta admit, but I like your version a lot.
"Vocals get mixed low where I come from."
And I like it. I remember that band from NY that got unbelievably famous a few years ago. (the strokes, I believe). I didn't like the band, but I liked it that they were the first mainstream band I heard with the vocals buried under the rest. Anyways, back to your song: great version. Congrats.
