A sample of our cover of Megadeth's "Symphony of Destruction". There is a little help at the beginning from my 10-year-old. This song was from Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction. No copyright infringement intended. I have NO intent to sell (pshh...like anyone would buy it! HAHAHA!!!)

LYRICS:
Leaving…
Going away for a season…
Where leaves are all golden…. forever
Nothing will never change.

Always the same

Almost…
As if it were a dream.
But dreams are not real.
Like the pain that we feel

And we know I can’t leave.
Till the me that you see
Transcends the horizon.
Beyond…
the Transgressions
There can be no exceptions.

Then…
The season will never be changed.

A cover of the 80's hit by Falco, "Rock Me, Amadeus".  Unable to speak German, I put my own twist on the lyrics with help from Google and other English Translations. The lyrics are as follows:

He was the first punk ever to set foot on this earth.
He was a genius from the day of his birth.
He could play the piano like a ring and a bell
And ev'rybody screamed:
Come on, rock me Amadeus.

He was a superstar, he was so popular
A master at his craft filled with so much flair
A virtuoso rock idol who caused quite a fuss
And everybody shouted:
Come and Rock me Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.


His mind was only music and having fun
He lived his life so fast that he died too young.
Still today we all listen to the compositions he gave us
And ev'rybody shouts:
Rock me Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus.

You can get Falco's original recording here:https://www.amazon.com/Rock-Me-Amadeus-30th-Anniversary/dp/B01DGIBFT2/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=rock+me+amadeus&qid=1633298332&sr=8-1

The follow up to Yondu's Gift. I used a Diamond Monarch guitar and a Digitech Polara pedal.

A Ravager Funeral - Yondu's Gift Part II

This song was inspired by my 5-year-old daughter who was eating strawberries and making up her own song (which she often does). I had the music written prior to this and just wrote some quick lyrics based on what she was saying. I had her and my 9-year-old to provide some additional vocals as well. As always, it's not professional, but we had fun doing it!  This was recorded using Reaper Software, a Focusrite Scarlett interface, a Diamond Monarch guitar, Boss GT-1 effects, an Ibanez Talman bass, and a Beatbuddy drum pedal.

Strawberry Dreams

What if Type O Negative had performed "Rainbow Connection"? I'm sure it would have been better than this train wreck. ***The original song was written by songwriters Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher for The Muppet Movie.***

Rainbow Connection

Originally recorded by Bozie Sturdivant in July 1942, "Ain't No Grave" has been around for a while. This version was inspired, obviously, by Johnny Cash's version recorded shortly before his death in September 2003.
