Mayday Parade – I Swear This Time I Mean It (Acoustic Cover)
Jan 15, 2010 amazing bass solos
Hey guys!
Mayday Parade’s new song is amazing in my opinion, so I decided to cover it. 
I know I might have messed up a little, but well I just had to learn it by listening so forgive me if I didn’t do it any justice. I’ll maybe re-record it if this one isn’t good enough. Let me know if you like it.
Love,
Rod

Lyrics:
Florida Please Be Still Tonight.
Don’t Disturb This Love Of Mine.
But How She’s Oh So Mean,
You’ve Got To Help Me Out.
Count The Stars Before The Rise.
And Find The Words For Saving Time.
I Want To Keep Her Dreaming,
It’s My One Wish, I Won’t Forget This.
Im Out-Dated, Overrated,
Morning Seems So Far Away.
So I’ll Sing The Melody.
And Hope To God She’s Listening,
Sleeping Softly While I Sing,
And I’ll Be In Your Memories.
A Lullaby For All The Times.
Hoping That My Voice Could Get It Right.
If Luck Is On My Side Tonight,
My Clumsy Tongue Will Make It Right.
That Wispy Touch, It Isn’t Much,
But It’s Enough.
To Form Imaginary Lines.
Forget Your Scars And Forget Mine.
The Hours Change So Fast.
Oh God, Please Make This Last.
Cause Im Out-Dated, Overrated,
Morning Seems So Far Away.
So I’ll Sing The Melody.
And Hope To God She’s Listening,
Sleeping Softly While I Sing,
And I’ll Be In Your Memories.
A Lullaby For All The Times.
Hoping That My Voice Could Get It Right.
You Could Crush Me, But Please Dont Crush Me.
Cause Baby I’m A Dreamer.
For Sure And I Won’t Let You Down,
I Swear This Time I Mean It.
So I’ll Sing The Melody.
And Hope To God She’s Listening,
Sleeping Softly While I Sing,
And I’ll Be In Your Memories.
A Lullaby For All The Times.
Hoping That My Voice Could Get It Right.

LYRICS
i hopped in the van at 6AM, with a dream and my closest friends
welcome to the land of the skinny jeans and the 15 passenger van…
Pullin into a brand new city, I met a kid in a purple deep vee, He said he used to listen to me, everybody seems so creepy. Step out the van and I’m feeling kinda homesick
Too much flourescent and I’m nervous, when the first bands takes the stage sporting Supra Shoes and some fresh tattoos & everything was autotuned!
So I put my pants on they’re a little too tight,
but I think it’s gonna be okay
I’m noddin my head like yeah,
I’m tapping my toes like yeah
It’s not a bad song, but the tracks too loud,
and the drummer doesn’t really play
yeahhhhhh it’s every band in the USA
So we hop on the stage at 9PM, & turns our amps up loud,
They’re like who’s this band playin guitar riffs, they gotta be from outta town… I’m singin’ loud but the crowd is talkin over me, this definitely ain’t a chi-town party. Everybody’s wearing neon, lookin for somebody to creep on.
We huddle up and figure out a cover we can play
I rip a cause I’m nervous. Then I turn to the crowd and ask if they wanna hear a Miley Cyrus song, a Miley Cyrus song, AND EVERYBODY SANG ALONG!
AND SO I PUT MY HANDS UP THEY’RE PLAYIN MY SONG & THE BUTTERFLY’S FLY AWAY
NODDING MY HEAD LIKE YEAH
I’m MOVIN MY HIPS LIKE YEAH
I PUT MY HAND UPS THEY’RE PLAYIN MY SONG
I KNOW I’M GONNA BE OK
YEAH IT’S A PARTY IN THE USA
Glamour Kills won’t sponsor us
& All Time Low won’t tour with us
But something keeps us on the stage,
That Miley Cyrus cover is all the rage!
I PUT MY HAND UPS THEY’RE PLAYIN MY SONG
& THE BUTTERFLIES FLY AWAY
I’M BANGING MY HEAD LIKE YEAH
PLAYIN METAL BEATS LIKE YEEAAAOOOWWW
I PUT MY HAND UPS THEY’RE PLAYIN MY SONG
I KNOW I’M GONNA BE OK
YEAH IT’S A PARTY IN THE USA

bass notes: the low C and the double low C
Dec 19, 2009 amazing bass solos
So now it´s time to go down below. I don´t count vocal fry or growling, it should be real speaking/singing voice.
I start with the low C (C2) which every bass singer shoule have no problem with. Baritones can also reach it but the volume is not so impressive. Even some tenors can reach it (michael kiske, joe lynn turner, geoff tate) but that is rare.
1. a C2 by swedish folk singer fred åkerström, from the song “glimmande nymf”.
2. a C2 by opera bass kurt moll, from Rosenkavalier.
3. an outstanding C2 from russian bass wiktor wichniakov, from the song “do not cast me off in the time of old age”.
4. famous gospel bass JD sumner hitting an easy (for him) C2 in the elvis song way down.
5. JD begins climing down into the cellar, here´s a A1 from “where the roses never fade”.
6. JD hitting a G1 from the same song.
7. russian bass, ivan rebroff, climbing down to a F1, song is “Im tiefen Keller”, this could be a growled note though.
8. JD hitting a F1 from the song “give the world a smile”.
9. JD humming his way down to an E1, from elvis song “I got a woman” live.
10. the famous C1 (almost, he misses the C1 and starts on a E1 instead, then he slides down to a whispered C1) by JD at the end of elvis song “way on down”.
11. a better C1 by JD off the song “you´ll never walk alone”.
12. tim storms humming/singing a C1 from song “amazin grace” live version with Rescue.
13. Tim touching a A0/Bb0 (bottom note on the piano!) in the beginning of this clip!! also from “amazing grace”.
Enjoy!
PS: Frying is all about SLOWERING the sound in the throat while normal chest voice is all about LOWERING the sound as low down in the chest as possible.
