acoustic insanity

it amazes me that i actually like this.

as fond as i am of boyce avenue, the masterpieces that are their acoustic arrangements, and their willingness to cover almost every genre on the music scene today, i'm not inclined to think they can make good on every cover they attempt.

i thought 'dynamite' would flop, cause let's face it, it's taio cruz and with lyrics like

I came to move move move move
Get out the way of me and my crew crew crew crew
I'm in the club so I'm gonna do do do do
Just what the **** i came here to do do do do


i doubted alejandro's mellow vocals could pull off, you know, the emotional complexity behind those deep, and no doubt meaningful words.


but yeah i like it! alejandro makes them pretty hammers and pulloffs, and it doesn't even matter sometimes that he's singing utter mainstream rubbish.

i really, really want a Taylor.


they're not particularly flashy, but the sound is brilliant, and really crisp.

and watching all these covers on youtube makes me want to do one with somebody considerably more musically inclined than i am, cause then their sheer epicness could make it worth watching.
and it's fun.

i also want more chocolate-covered raisins.
