Here's a cover I completed a month ago, but held off on releasing because I didn't do the SFX at the beginning and the end of the tune. In the end I decided to face the fact I was never going to get around to doing it, so I figured I might as well put it out.

The original tune is from a game called Galactic Pinball; I'm sure most handheld gaming connoisseurs will be familiar with this classic from the (admittedly very scarcely populated) Virtual Boy library.

Whether you are well acquainted with the original tune or not though, I hope you will enjoy this cover, into which a great deal of effort was spent trying to make it sound as faithful to the original as possible. I know I had a lot of fun making it, at least.

Ohmagerd, jrlepage posted something he made!? That's rare.

Anyways, the cover itself is quite well done, but personally, I never completely liked the song. All the high notes...hurt my ears. Even worse was that I was already getting headaches from the sight of this game...thanks, Virtual Boy. With your cover, it wasn't as much of a problem for me and I enjoyed it a little more than the original. Keep up the good work ^_^

I think this could've been worded better. The way you put it makes it sound like you're implying I routinely post things I didn't make. I know that's not what you meant (at least, I hope not), but other people could possibly take offence.

Still though, thanks for the kind words. Both of you~~

Eh...that was probably the most poorly worded sentence I've both said and typed all week. You're right--I DEFINITELY didn't mean how it was worded. It is rare that you post a song on here, though. When you do, Holy JalapeƱos...it is worth the listen ^_^
