I've been wanting to learn Say Yes for a long time. You did a phenomenal job in your version! I'm curious, how long does it take you, roughly, from starting learning a song like this, to getting it recorded and finished? Oh and are you playing guitar and singing at the same time? For me, it takes a lot longer to finish learning and recording a song when I record guitar and vocals in one go compared when I focus on just recording guitar in one recording, and vocals in a separate recording.
@@FlameheartJr I'm going to do the same with tough songs like Elliott's from now on. I would spend a few hours learning songs, but then trying to play and sing them simultaneously always took me way longer than it took me to learn and I was less happy with the result than if I did it separately. You don't know how important the reassurance that you record separately is for me haha
@@FlameheartJr Damn, you're making me want to get back my cracked FL 10 from 2010. I stopped using it when i stopped caring about making electronic music back in 2015. But I'm recording Can't Make a Sound right now, which I gotta layer the electric guitar over the acoustic and background vocals with the main vocals. Plus get the levels right, add the right effects, etc. And I just realized how easy that all sounds to do in the DAW I spent 6 years getting really familiar with. These two posts right above made it all click (so thank you two!): Why reinvent the wheel and learn a DAW I'm not familiar with, or use cheap free stuff like Audacity, when I can just slap the parts together in a second and have more time to focus on the parts I love: learning and writing more songs and then performing them.

thanks! i learned this and recorded it in a couple of hours 😁. i recorded the vocals and guitar separate cause i find it much easier too!

Hey what program/app/ whatever the hell you call it do you use to double track vocals and record, also Love this cover it sounds really good!
thanks! I use logic (the payed version of garageband) and record the vocals twice, then pan one hard left and another hard right!
