I Guess that what Moor meant is that Nicky's covers aren't as bad as the thing he presented there.

Well, to be fair, while this is bad, it's mostly a singer with bad timing (possibly without a good monitor?) who's a little flat and a guitarist with next to no technical ability.  It can be tolerated.  This, however, is WAY worse:

The drummer has potential.  That's the nicest thing I can bring myself to say.

I don't recognize the song at all, but still had no problem feeling the melody. Great job! :tup Nice range and power. I'd like to hear something along with a backing track.

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

You're new here aren't you?  :lol

Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I trimmed it, but I'll let it grow again xD

I'm moving to a new apartment next week, so I packed almost everything  :)

I can guarantee you I used 0,0% autotune. What you hear is my pure natural voice. The only effect I did add on my vocals is a little reverb  ;)

That should be the last damn thing you pack!  It's the only thing anybody (read: me) remembers about your videos besides, ya know, the LaBrieisms, the passion, the fury, and...well, the voice.

Really? I always watch them when I'm in doubt how to headbang to Dream Theater :metal unless headbanging falls under the category of passion/fury, in which case I stand corrected.

It most certainly does. 

You want to see some prime passion/fury, check out his take on Winter Rose's Asylum City.  My god, the way he kicks the air, it was like he was kicking me right in the soul only with my spirit to be resurrected when his angelic voice sang the first verse.

The "are you using autotune" obviously was a sarcastic remark. Quick way of telling whether somebody is using autotune: Is it on pitch? If not, then he/she is not using autotune.

Yeah, I had sensed it was sarcastic too. Because if you use autotune and you sing that bad, you must sue the company that has provided you with the device. :biggrin:
