Lately I've been really in love with the music. I can't get enough of it. TNS hasn't hosted a contest for a while so I thought we should have a cover contest, again! We have lots of talented players here so I challenge every single one of you to join and have fun! I'm a shy guy and I don't have much of a gear but I'll give this a try. I hope you do the same. Screw the quality. Screw your shitty gear. Just give it a shot. So I'm waiting at least 10 covers!
We had Sum 41 Cover contest a while ago but this time I have a different theme for this contest.
1. Cover a song. Any song you like, it doesn't have to be a Sum 41 song.
2. Make your own version of the song. For example compose it the way you want. Just don't follow the studio version of the song.
3.Record the song anyway you want. If you have just video camera, its okay. If you have recording gear, great.
4. Post links for the original song and your cover of it. (Youtube links ftw)
5. You have time till March 1. Then we make a poll and vote for the winner. I can't give you prizes but let's think this as a friendly competition. Ofc Jeremy is such a cool guy that he could make a sig for the winner..
I need you now more than ever. Are you with me or what?
Time For Cover Contest!

Re: Time For Cover Contest!
Great to have you on board! I'm thinking of recording special kind of version of Lostprophets "It's Not The End of The World But I Can See It From Here". But I'm not sure yet. I have to think different kind of compositions of it for few days. I'm also goin' to sing. Oh God.
And Madjid, I love that cover. Why didn't it win Sum 41 cover contest?

Re: Time For Cover Contest!
I'll give the winner my spare copy of Sum 41's Introduction to Destruction but only if they have the DVD. I can't really think of anything else I can use as a prize :D

Re: Time For Cover Contest!
This is actually really interesting. I've been demoing ideas for few hours now. It's a challenge to compose one of my favorite tracks.
And Heather, I'd love to hear what you'd come up with :/ Please re-think! :(

Re: Time For Cover Contest!
Thanks. I'm the one on the right with my arms crossed:P And the colored one with a lightsaber. But these were all old pics, some from even when I wasn't in the band.

This video was put together by a fan, and she probably didn't bother to pick some recent pictures.
