Re: Thingfish's Acoustic Maiden Covers (new track added : 28/02/07)

This has been my favourite song almost for a year  and iv been waiting for you to do it. The whole song is so well done I cant pick one part that’s better then the others great job Thingfish! This is my favourite Maiden song and now favourite Thingfish rendition. :ok:

Wow, great cover! Intro is almost as chilling as the original. Well done!  :ok:

A quick scan through a few...ahem..."art" sites inspired me to record this next classic from the Di'Anno era...not an album track this time, though...of course, it's...

'Women In Uniform'!!!

:yey: :yey: :yey:

Including the fade. Good job on this one as with most of the DiAnno stuff (as this suits your vocals better) - nice backing vocals as well.

As for Educated Fool, again nicely done and this, like almost all of the X Factor, does sound really good done acoustically.

Woo! Love it! You know, I prefer it to the original! Nice backing vocals. Well done!

Thanks again, chaps. I had fun doing this song and did it in one evening :D As far as I can recall this is the only song Maiden have done which fades out, apart from Stranger In A Strange Land. I've certainly not done one like that yet, so it was interesting to have to play on loudly as the original track was growing silent so I could mimic the fade properly. The backing vocals are fun too, although they say 'Women In Uniform' too often!!  :lol: :lol:

Good stuff again, Thingfish! Downloading a few of your songs right now.
 
Re: Thingfish's Acoustic Maiden Covers (new track added : 08/03/07)

Nice job on this one - as usual. :ok:
 
Re: Thingfish's Acoustic Maiden Covers (new track added : 08/03/07)

I was wondering where you were, albie :) It seems interest in my tracks is waning somewhat...  :S
 
Re: Thingfish's Acoustic Maiden Covers (new track added : 08/03/07)

Keep 'em coming though - people are still listening and last.fm has generated some new fans as well.
 
Re: Thingfish's Acoustic Maiden Covers (new track added : 08/03/07)

Yeah! Them keep them coming! Nice job on The Pilgrim.  :ok:
 
Re: Thingfish's Acoustic Maiden Covers (new track added : 08/03/07)

Thankyou, guys :) I will indeed keep them coming, starting right now!

It's time for another superbly emotional Blaze-era classic. I'd love to hear Maiden play this one again one day...

'The Aftermath'!

:( :( :(

I'm glad to see the acoustics have an emotional effect on me, just like the original.  This is one of my favourites.  I like the intro and the solo and this chorus is my favourite (both original and yours):

      Once a ploughman hitched his team here he sowed his little dream
      Now bodies arms and legs are strewn where mustard gas and barb wire bloom
      Each moment's like a year I've nothing left inside for tears
      Comrades dead or dying lie I'm left alone asking why

:ok:
