I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) (2011 Remaster)

YouTube
The #music truth the world is not ready to hear is that #TheProclaimers could do a fantastic cover of Bad Romance

One of the things about the amount of #music that I've played is that when I can get my mind right, I've got a pretty good inner ear.
I often imagine what songs would sound like covered by artists who never covered them. It's easier with very distinct voices or sounds.

Most recent one... just worked. And they're not dead, so it could happen:

Imagine "#TheProclaimers" (500 Miles) covering Bad Romance by #LadyGaga?

That whole whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh section just would work perfectly, right?

🎵 When I wake up, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
If I get drunk, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's haverin' to you 🎵

500 miles? Sure. I just saw the album cover and thought "Can I redo that in ACNH?" The answer is...mostly. Though the cityscape wallpaper isn't quite right, it still works.

Have a great Music Monday.

“Third boxcar, midnight train
Destination Bangor, Maine
Old, worn out suit and shoes
I don't pay no union dues
I smoke old stogies I have found
Short, but not too big around
I'm a man of means by no means
King of the road”

#TheProclaimers deserve way more credit than they just get from 500 Miles. I can't quite figure out where there's almost no studio covers of Sunshine on Leith and none of Streets of Edinburgh. Both are fantastic songs, and there's a rich world to be explored by both. Wouldn't even need the brogue to work.
