  • I made a Minecraft note block cover of "Give a Little", LeGrand's music video featuring CG5 (the "Everybody told me that I sound like CG5" song). The cover was made entirely by ear and manually built in-game. Enjoy the video!

    I honestly struggled to make this cover sound accurate to the original, hence the long delay (I started working on this video months ago!). I ended up using tons of sticky pistons, which take 1.5 redstone ticks to extend. This allows note blocks to be played in between ticks for faster, more precise rhythms.
    Feel free to use this cover as background music in your own videos! Just be sure to credit me in the video, tag my channel, and link this video in the description.
    Lyrics:
    Pre-chorus:
    Everyone projecting all their dreams on me
    A million life plans of what they want me to be
    Saying give a little, give a little
    Give a little, give a little
    Piece by piece I'm slipping away
    Hey
    Be kind, be patient
    Be hard to please
    It seems contradicting
    But do it honestly
    Just give a little, give a little
    Give a little give a little
    Until you disintegrate
    Verse 1 (LeGrand):
    Put your hands up
    If you've lied awake at three A.M
    Promising yourself all the things
    That you think that you'll never do again
    Put your hands up
    If you have a
    Dream of running away
    Somewhere you can get a little wild for a night
    And the next day no one remembers your name
    Verse 2 (CG5):
    Put your hands up
    If you’ve been manipulated
    By the masses, by the people
    Who just want to complicate you
    By the ones who only want to see you
    Crash and burn
    Well tell me honestly the things that you
    Yearn for
    Do you want the voices to stop
    In and out of your head
    Making your mind go pop?
    Can I get an amen?
    Why don’t you forget it
    And dance till you drop
    3, 2, 1
    Bridge:
    Of all the hypocrites
    With slivers in their eyes
    I'll scream that I'm sick of it
    I can't see the beams in mine
    Obscene expectations
    Is the most toxic form of pride
    So why should I
    Deserve to do more
    With my life
    Pre-chorus:
    Everyone projecting
    All their dreams on me
    A million life plans of what they want me to be
    Saying give a little, give a little
    Give a little, give a little
    Piece by piece I'm slipping away
    Hey
    Be kind
    Be patient
    Be hard to please
    It seems contradicting
    But do it honestly
    Just give a little, give a little
    Give a little, give a little
    Until you disintegrate

    Man, its wierd that Im now only realizing that pistons are kinda a novel thing for noteblocks, also, learning the fact that you do this by EAR is just amazing, I dont think I could do this by sheet music. Very impressive, I dont know how you do it.
    P.S. The gameplay bits are a wonderful touch

    Like how the reversed synths at the start well Minecraft chimes. And really cool technique to do those weird triplet rhythms with pistons! I can't imagine the hell you went through to time that.
