Awesome Yeah this has that Vic stamp trademark on it. Very awesome cover, the music & vocals are just great! It's not easy to pull off a cover, but you did it justice. RAVEN ;-) Check out my latest song called Tattooed Scars (w/ Sigmund, Scofugate, Rok41)

Cool Nice work on this. I like the feel of it overall. It sounds muffled for some reason on my system though, am I the only one? A little muffle doesnt remove the enjoyability of the song though. Check out my latest song called Devil's Argument!!!

Very nice Cover, Jim You tamed this down some from Vic's original, and in so doing you made it your own. I particularly love the wonderful Harmonies you did on the Chorus. Excellent Cover my friend, Ed Check out my latest song called Quack's Blues

Great cover! Hey, this is a really well-done cover! You totally made it your own but I hear the Holman-esque elements. You (and Vic) should be proud of this :) Check out my latest song called (An Untitled) Intro

I Won't Fly Oops! Almost missed this. I'm a big fan of Vic's songs so you get props for good taste. Great dynamics. Nice contrast between verse and chorus. I like the way the piano track lightly drives the whole thing. Nice mix! Check out my latest song called Just Ain't Worth a Song (2 Track)

Great hushed homage to a great tune. Love the whammied chords, in-your-face leads in teh intro. Neat vocal, too. In fact, the whole thing's got a nice, unified feel. Reverbed chorus... just fun and effective. I haven't checked but I think some will compare this sound to After the Gold Rush. Not that I'm doing that... What a great song, Hope Vic feels pride in this one. It's great. FOR THE CURIOUS, here's the link: http://www.macjams.com/song/27137 Check out my latest song called Call Me (Turn to Me Reprise)

Cover challenge I think I seen this "Cover Challenge" thing mentioned a few times now. What is it exactly, any covers or covers of MJ artists. Cool concept if it's other MJ artists. I've heard some tunes that it would be fantastic to give a try. I think I saw one comment that used the word "intimate" to describe this tune. +1 Check out my latest song called House Terrace w/Yomar
