The first one goes out to Jeff! Thanks for helping out the site man. Here's one of your songs on a baritone acoustic. For those who don't know this is Blizzard by XO. It's an amazing song.

Here is me and a beer covering Alive with the Glory of Love on the baritone (it's the only acoustic I have currently with me).

I'm totally loving the minor sound you got going on there with your Alive cover on the baritone! Should tab your chords out for us to play the song in a new way. For sure!

I started working on this acoustic arrangement of Crush'd, based more off of the album version than Max's own acoustic version some time ago. I never finished it, though. Oh well.

Sob story:
Spoiler:
I stopped working on it around the time my ex-girlfriend broke up with me. I had been working on this arrangement/cover for some time and had planned on it being part of a collection of songs I was recording for her, along with Looking Back On Today by The Ataris, Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer, and others...
She broke up with me because I didn't do many "sweet things" for her (or so she said)... this song collection was going to be a surprise. She still doesn't know I was ever working on it for her. Women = bitches.
I suppose I can tab it out if anyone wants to mess around with it. Just let me know.

sounds like all you need to do is add vocals and you're done. I would do it but I think I noticed a few parts where the beat staggered but I could be wrong. If not I'd like to do that.

Damn awesome cover. Singing was WAY better than I was expecting! It was nice to hear some deviations from the original melody without either completely changing the way it sounds overall or without sounding bad.

What I love about covers are the slight deviations from the original, sometimes covers come up with some genius ideas.
