    I just covered Still Loving You by Scorpions!!

    I guess this is the definition of an "ego" post but... I am so damn happy!!

    I started singing 6 years ago and I have never been able to take a high note... I never had ANY confidence in singing (and still have a LONG way to go) but I feel so damn good now because I managed to sing this song! It's not awesome or so and quite off-pitch... But... Meh, you judge!!!

    Please tell me what you think guys!!

    See you all on "that game"-3

    Very good voice, definately not bad. It is not ready to get a place in the "covers that surpassed the original" thread though, but that's a hard path to follow. The original song is awesome and that makes this version sound a bit... I think the word is "awkward". Don't get me wrong, your voice is amazing, but I think I would have liked it better if you did something completely different with the song, if you know what I mean.

    Hahaha thanks Snowy!! Yeah, the day someone outsings Klaus Meine is the day I re-value most of my life choices... The guys is a high tenor and pretty much the ONLY one with a nasal sound that sounds GREAT!

    Ninja-edited my post :-)

    To clarify a bit, with this version I was comparing it too much to the original. That made it sound a bit off, even though, as I said, it is sung very very good.

    I hear you... I did make some differences... I do some wails... For example, the high "love, our love".. I like that one.. I sing some falsetto things too near the end, also in the end I do a high metal scream while singing some random lyrics in a different melody in front.. But one can always do more... I do sing it one octave down in the beginning and then raise one...

    Sincerely it's awesome, I am a guitarist and occasionally was the singer in my former band, but I was nowhere near as good as you . I'm speaking about pitch and precision. I'm sure I also had a horrible breath-management. But enough of me. Your performance is amazing, however, I've noticed some very slight precision mistakes (to reach the right tone I mean), but honestly most of non-musician people won't even notice, and btw this song IS difficult. Your voice sounds great. Good job, keep on the good work !

    Wow Frosty... I am more than.. I don't know... Grateful... I have a lot to learn and I am really trying to get ahold of how to become better... But it's very hard.... People just say "sing"... t.t

    You certainly can sing. The only criticism I would make is that the pitch of your voice changes too much. You ought to keep it somewhat more consistent, but I know nothing about singing, so it's an uninformed remark at best.
