I covered the James Bond theme!

Recorded my own version of it, a few weeks ago. I play the guitars, and the drum beat is from a drum machine.

    I think you could write a James Bond theme song.
    Perhaps you could put lyrics to the James Bond Theme by Monty Norman

    Of all the covers I have herd I think yours is the best. Moby made an absolute hash of the James Bond theme when he covered it.

    You are very talented!

    I have added you on Myspace, thumbs up to your other work aswell!
    What counts is what the heroine provokes, or rather what she represents. She is the one, or rather the love or fear she inspires in the hero , or else the concern he feels for her, who makes him act the way he does.

    Very nice, plenty of strings, quite relaxing actually !

    Bravo Jarvio! That is probably one of the best covers of the James Bond theme I've ever heard! Next you should do an AVTAK instrumental and mix in the soundclip "Welcome sir, I'm Jenny Flex" every few times. ;)

    Well, the soundclip isn't necessary, but definitely an AVTAK Remix/Cover is in order someday!

    So that's what you look like, Jarvio...

    Not bad, does show up the main verse as a tad repetitive however. I prefer the chorus which sort of improvises more and doesn't have to replicate every note exactly. I'd rather the main verse was like that, more laid back.

    Certainly better suited to Craig's Bond than Brosnan's.

    Interesting idea, I have a book that tells you how to play the Bond songs somewhere, so could probably do that someday, would be cool

    Yeah I know what you mean about it being a tad repetitive at times. I agree that it suits Craig's Bond more than Brosnan's. That's something I see as a good thing. Thanks for the feedback.
