    If Walt Disney made Aladdin back in the 30’s/40’s, “A Friend Like Me” would sound like this.

    Considering the song was originally written to be a Cab Calloway-style number, this is a *perfect* era to choose for a cover.

      @@swingit3191 Just heard your version of Flowers, great stuff! Real bluesy and dirty. Be nice to hear a mashup with When I was Your man by Bruno Mars as a call and response. But if you're still after modern cover ideas I think Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo is a banger.

    I don't know but this style is closer to the original song.

    The music is wonderful, but the singer is hard to listen to - what's with the accent?! This song would sound fresh and wonderful if you were to just use your British accent!

    • @swingit3191
      @swingit3191  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      He is English (from Devon), so sorry you can't understand his accent!

      @billbauer9795 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@swingit3191 No. The problem is that he was trying to speak in a fake Southern accent. I realize that Robin Williams who sang the original song used that southern accent. It would have been a breath of fresh air if that song was done with a British accent.
      In any case, thank you for being one of the few contemporary bands who create beautiful music.
