Recording covers with just a laptop and GarageBand

Lost Child - Lee Jieun [IU]

First song that I’ve ever done in Korean. Apologies to all my Korean friends for butchering your beautiful language. I hope I didn’t cuss unintentionally, though it’s inevitable since I have no idea what I’m saying. The range was a bit on the high end for me, and it sounds somewhat different from the original because I didn’t have much of the background vocals. Wasn’t sure how to mix it so that that would work. :[ Hopefully, it’s not too hard to listen to. :]

If you listen to it, please leave a comment. Soundcloud won’t let me upload it claiming copyright issues, so it’d be nice to know that people have listened to it. In the meantime, I shall continue to figure out why it will let me post all my American covers and not this one. -___-

Love Story - Taylor Swift

First order of business after a test is completed: a new cover! This song is four years old now. Oh how time flies. I was OBSESSED with this song when it first came out, as some of my friends can attest to that. :)

Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen

I can’t believe that 5 months has passed since I did my last cover. Time really flies when one is studying for the CPA. -__- I’d meant to do this cover months ago when it was at its peak in popularity, but I never finished. Well, a break today meant that I can finish it. It’s not exactly how I wanted it to turn out, but I figured if I don’t finish it, I never will.

Payphone - Maroon 5 

Wow. First cover I’ve done in three months.  Probably the only one I’ve done all semester, but what a nice way to end the semester (and my undergraduate career) with one more song!  Not great quality…since I’m half asleep…but I was really itching to sing this song. And I really need a better mic.  This will do for now.  Enjoy!

Airplanes - B.O.B.

my first attempt at rapping.  wasn’t planning on actually posting this for the public to hear, but i’ve decided that i’ll take the risk.  so for my first post of 2012, here’s b.o.b.’s “airplanes”.  

Starry Night - Chris August

My first attempt at a Christian song (one of my favorites!) as well as harmonizing with myself.  Enjoy!  :D

The Story of Us - Taylor Swift

Started this cover a while back but never finished…so thought I’d just finish it up today.  :)

Christmas Must Be Something More - Taylor Swift

Chasing Pavements - Adele

Haven’t done a cover in FOREVER.  Well, I’ve done a couple but none that I’ve really liked.  I’m obviously no Adele, but I LOVE THIS SONG.  So, hope you all enjoy.  :)
