Yet another cover of the Cohen standard, but at least I've got an excuse this time.

This is what happens when two people overdub themselves as a choir--and are both extremely stupid.
Following in the steps of edlundart's series of demos, I figured I should post this...gem?

A largely pointless endeavor, a rendition of Hallelujah with quick fingerpicking and banjos (what's new?).

Instrumental nylon string guitar, borrowing harminocally from Mr Cohen, but in my own style. Hope everyone enjoys it.

Influenced in all honesty by freya_lamb and wilco. And coffee shops. And random bars on 'punk' night with the acoustic Brittney spears covers that no one pays attention to. And the noise. Oh ~ it's half some jens lekman. Also dedicated to tired, exhausted folks with good things going for them.

This is the soundtrack to a movie about Leonard Cohen going on a rafting trip in rural Appalachia.

Here's my version of the esteemed Mr. Cohen's paean to the religion of love. I dropped the rhythm and chord changes, and made a new melody. The very minimal accompaniment consists of three tracks from my trusty old JUNO 60 analog synth. That's it! Video version (photos by yours truly) at
Vimeo and
YouTube.

You won't be able to escape this in the clubs this summer.
Unless you just stay away, which is what I recommend. [more inside]

I've been in a string quartet frame of mind for the last few weeks. The abrupt end is intentional. Not sure why.

Stealing the 5/4 shuffle from Take Five and injecting it into Leonard Cohen: non-trivial.

Disclaimer: This started as a semi-serious effort, but quickly turned ridiculous. That's not how I normally play guitar, by the way. Even as a teenager in the 80s I didn't play like that, except in jest.

Although the song says the distinction is irrelevant, this is
definitely the BROKEN hallelujah.

my take on the monthly challenge fairly faithful but with some harmonies. One take for guitar and vox, one take for harmony, no level altering (it needs it, it also needs the guitar rerecording, but no time!). Again recorded by singing and playing at my mac. One day I'll set up my recording gear!

I thought I'd take one for the team and kick off June's "Cover Hallelujah"
Music challenge. This is a scratch recording I made about a year ago when I was home sick and had lost most of my voice. If you ever wanted to hear Excessively Husky-Voiced Cortex, this is your chance.
