Danke, mein Freund! 🤟

Thank you mate, I really appreciate that. I am not knocking the ladies, I know they can be great too, but there is no question that the algo intentionally shares them disproportionately, and it's not as simple as, that's because that is what people want to see. It can be really hard to cut through as someone like me (straight, white, disabled - but not visually, nothing special). Again, that is not to knock any of those demographics at all, but the algorithms are being intentionally configured to boost certain groups, and that can have a suppressive effect on artists like me, who aren't particularly pretty, and are just really an average guy. It's gotten so bad that many artists will use tricks like using a pretty lady in their thumbnails or in the language of their descriptions to get more algo boost. 😅

Thank you, I plan to do more like this (minus the holiday aspect). Merry slightly belated Christmas/Happy Holidays!

Heck yea, glad you like it! I'll probably be doing some more of these folky blues rock songs as I go. I move a little slow cause of health, but I'll post another one soon as I can 😁🤟 Thanks for the comment!

Hey actually I really want to do Iris. Maybe that one should be next!

Yea it's definitely an interesting one this year. Uncharacteristically warm for sure. Was thinking the same thing looking out the window this morning 😅

🤘🙏

😁😂 Yeaaaaaaa... It's just me and a green screen, but you're not the first person to think this was multiple people. I get a lot of "cool band" comments on TikTok 🤣

It's been a little while now so I don't remember if I played this exactly, but IIRC, what I played was based on the following: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/4375667

I really appreciate the support! Despite my health situation, which suffice to say is chronically not great, I will keep fighting to make music as best as I can! It's my passion 😅. BTW, it's slightly heavier (with some emo mixed in), but if you're interested, check out my band, Sayor. We're on pretty much all the usual platforms. Funeral (has a music video I shot from the hospital), Eternity, Leave Me 4 Dead, and The Split have some similar elements and topics to this song, so might be good places to start! linktree.com/SayorMusic SayorMusic.com

Really appreciate the support! I don't post enough due to medical stuff, but I'll have some new content ready soon. Look out for the next one, should be interesting! BTW, the below leads to a list of links for my band Sayor. Check em out if you're into hard rock/alt metal: linktree.com/SayorMusic

Thanks a ton! Really appreciate the positive feedback! Will keep posting!

@@MetalForBones alright great! Can’t wait to hear more

Thank you! I love acoustics too. There are a couple laid back improvised acoustic guitar solos in the full version of this cover on my channel too. Now, I can't speak to the quality of those guitar solos, but, you know... they're solos... at least 😅😂.

Thank you! Very nice Imagine Dragons cover you guys just posted!

Thank you! Appreciate it! 🙂

Thanks, Ninja! Can't wait to post our collab SOAD cover soon!

Thank you Shadow appreciate that!

Thanks, Ninja! Me too it's a good one for sure!

@@MetalForBones Hey Jamie, I did a cover of SOAD and set it as private and shared it with your gmail. I know you mentioned a collab with some harmonies, that would be really cool. Check it out if you'd like and let me know! if ya

@@NinjaNeedzCovers thats awesome! It's saying it's private now though so you might need to reset it to "unlisted" so I can still see it. Also, I need a few days before I can record my part, I've been hammering my vocal cords just a bit too hard lately and they need a rest 😅 haha. I should have time Monday or Tuesday! 😁

@@MetalForBones Hey man, no rush haha! Awesome that you've been going in with the vocals! It's unlisted now and you can just go to .ukposts.info/have/v-deo/bXJ5iZuGb691y4E.html with the www before it. Don't know if UKposts will allow a link in the comments.

Thank you Robin!

Thanks Ninja! Sounding good over on your channel too!

Actually Ninja, after exploring your channel a bit, you and I have SUPER close taste in music. Maybe we could collab sometime? What about a system of a down acoustic song where I sing Daron's part and you do Serj? I can green screen myself in if you leave room in the camera and I wouldn't mind shooting with nothing but my camera mic like you do and mixing it! Offers on the table if you ever feel up to it, let me know!

@@MetalForBones Hey Jamie, that sounds amazing man. I'll let you know if I get some time to do that. I love SOAD.

Its plugged in DI through my Apollo. Its also bleeding through the mic a bit.

Appreciate the awesome comment! I put a lot of work into these videos and it's really good to hear positive feedback. Thank you, itz Lit!

Can you please do alien ant farm acoustic

Thanks, Kato Gojira! It's one of mine as well. Comes off a great album in general too!

@@MetalForBones you ever heard of glassjaw

I feel lame for not knowing this band. They sound awesome. Reminds me of MCR meets Taproot and Incubus, with some metal LOL. What AAF you have in mind? I'll have to consider that one a bit.

@@MetalForBones she's only evil

Thank you! Glad to hear it! 😁

Thank you, jamlie Tjhai! 😀

Thank you, melany!

Thanks, KorahHoll! Appreciate it!

Thanks C_strings28! Appreciate that 😁

Thank you for this suggestion, I'll have to think about it a bit. I love MCR actually and have been planning to cover one of their songs. Just gotta think about which one.

Thank you! Believe it or not, this is a Universal Audio amp sim being run in the unison slot of my Apollo (audio interface). The Apollos amp sims seem to sound more like a real amp than other sims.

Thank you, that's awesome to hear! Great channel you guys got going BTW!

Appreciate that Luke! 💯

Thanks, Jeff! 😁

Thanks, BeeZYBubbLE. Will do my best!
