Steemit Open mic week 71 - Story Charlemagne - Walking on the moon (The police)

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Hello again Steemit,


Today, a cover of Walking on the moon by The Police. The version in which inspired this performance is by Cas Haley.

Cas Haley was a contestant on America's got talent that definitely didn't look the way he sounded. A lot of times, for good or bad, that is the kind of thing that engages people. Something different than what is expected.

So here is just a quick fun song I like to play and shot on a new device. After having problems with every single electronic I own over the past 3 weeks, I now have a new One Plus 5t which I hope I can make some decent videos and projects come to life with.


ps. I accidentally say week 61 instead of 71. Please forgive me. (>^_^)>

Thanks again for the consideration Steemit fam!

Wow, you smashed it mate!
Great cover :)

Great vocal! Is your guitar direct or is it just miked? I see you have a feedback buster on. Just curious if that was a conscious decision to give you that percussive sound.

In this video I actually just had the one mic that I was playing and singing into. A few times I have mic'd the guitar as well through my interface. I do EQ in a manner that I think gives a deeper percussive sound so I guess its a bit intentional. :p Thanks for the listen man!

Hey @storycharlemagne,
I'm glad you were able to show face this week too. You did a really impressive job this time, you're very consistent. Do you have any music online that's downloadable? Me and my wife love your music and style of singing.

Verbal! Thank you so much! Appreciate the listen and kind words again brother. I do have a few songs on bandcamp right now. Definitely can get listens or purchase on there. These tracks are from a few years back now but I think they still hold up :p

This one is one of my favorite that is coming back on my new EP but with full instrumentation!

You're very welcome bro. I'll be sure to check this one out, thanks for the link and info. :) If you need a mixer masterer or beat producer/ sound engineer, let me know. My best friend is a ridiculously talented engineer producer. He could definitely bring to life some of your new songs so that you can share then and get them professionalized if you are interested. Look forward to your next entry. Congrats on your win

So good!! Love your voice and the feel you put in to this song. Thanks for sharing :)
