For those who were affected by the typhoon and all the others who are having difficulties in life, remember that Jesus will never leave our side. Stay strong.

Cry Out To Jesus by Third Day (cover)

While I don't really want to make a habit of doing covers, I've found them to be particularly useful for improving my production skills as well as keep my playing skills up. This song was a request for me to do a backing track for Misty & Krystal, and despite not having actually heard this song before (I didn't know this song is a big hit on mainstream pop CCM stations), I found that liked it enough to fill in the blanks and do the full cover (with a special thanks to Misty on vocals in the chorus).

I omitted the sequenced synthesizers, electronic drum machine parts, as well as the extra vocal overdubs and reduced the parts to "human playable" part and instrumentation because I wanted a "more rock, less pop" overall sound to it. All the tracks are essentially scratch tracks done in one or two takes over the course of three nights.
