London: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlgF-pB4i8I
Carousel (re-recorded): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y24aSrut5fU

The Carousel cover this time is much better, imho. And London... yeah.

There's this YouTube user who posts almost every Vanessa song. Maybe we can ask him to help us out?

Here's the link to his profile:

The only thing I don't like is the tone of the keyboard. :X I'm an upright/grand piano sort of person (Kyle Landry being an exception...).

Besides, we get to be more involved (?). .-.

As promised, I'm contribootin':

Carousel: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KW1UZ8K1
London: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R3S3P4FL

They're mp3's of my piano covers (go figure, right? .-. I'm so tech savvy...).  I hope they're adequate enough.

has any one tried to play TTFS slowly to capture the feel of In the End?

Yup. I'm still not so sure about it right now .-. Right now, it just sounds like a slow TTFS. I fail.

Downloaded. Playing. Repeating.
Overall, I like it.

I can't wait for the album now.

I'm slightly jealous of everyone who got to listen to it so far. 3 hours and 12 minutes so far. The suspense... o_O

If you don't mind a couple of mess-ups, you can ask sobriquet for the mp3 to my vid of Carousel (?).

1. Carousel
2. A Thousand Miles (Gotta Admit that this one's fun in piano)
3. London
4. HAT
5. Hands on Me
6. Nolita Fairytale
7. White Houses
8. Who's To Say (The Encore one with the guitar thingie I did. I am biased, I know  )
9. Home
10. More Than This

I think we should come up first with the set list. We should all guys decide. Then we'll just divide the jobs among yourselves (I really want to use ourselves but I'm not still sure  )

I'll stop now. This is too long. It got me excited.

I also think that we should separate the lighter songs from the darker songs... So it will be like two-sided instrumental EP?

Since ATM, Home, and Hands on Me is covered (and possibly White Houses), I could do London and H&T.  I'd do Nolita Fairytale and Who's to Say, but I can't incorporate the melody in those. .-.

If we're splitting up lighter songs from darker songs, I so call Papa.

I made sure to save money from my gift cards to buy Carousel and ROTR. Afterward, I'll see what else I can get before going to get another one. I try to limit my spending. o_o

Sobriquet, if that was you who asked on YouTube, yes, you can.

And thanks. Let's just say, I quickly fell in love with the song when it was first premiered live, and I have to get everything right. I did have other recordings of her songs (ATM, Papa, H&T, London), but since the FlipShare program on my computer is currently broken, they're not currently accessible.

And this is what happens when I dig through my iPhone and start deleting stuff. It's old-ish and pretty bad, imho--considering I meshed everything together, presumably in a half hour, and called it final. I'll mull over whether or not if I should re-record another cover.

Everything's making me excited for the new album. I'm sort of looking forward to what the main tune of this album will sound like.  I hope it's more than just some sentiment and ten songs...Honestly, I don't want it to sound cheap.    Nonetheless, I enjoyed the entirety of the last 2 albums [I wasn't a big fan of BNN--at all, really.], and I'm expecting to do the same for the next.

As for her favorite album by the Doves, I'll be honest: I prefer The Last Broadcast better.

I love signing in after a while and seeing something exciting. I really cannot wait for the album now. Hehehe, listening to the little snippet of Carousel made me a little giddy (and at the same time sad, since it was so short. .-.)
