Lords, download the song "Help!" by The Beatles.

Downloaded. And?

Lords, do you have Guitar Pro? Install it if you don't.

Is it not too difficult to learn?
P.S. Which version should I install?

No. There, you just look at the notes and tabs. There's also everything for percussion. There, it's specifically written how the percussion should sound; your task is to simply copy all of this into your Fruity Loops editor. I've attached the file above. You can listen by pressing the spacebar, or you can select a specific track and listen to it.

The style is the same as in the song). We will play it just as accurately as in the original. For the first time. So, classic rock. The drum instruments are written directly in the gp5 file, or rather, not instruments, but... I don't know. I just don't understand drums :[ Go ahead and download it, take a look at how it all looks, and if you have any questions after that, then ask.

There's another cool song. I like it). I think many people have heard it. Uriah Heep - Lady in Black. It's a rock ballad, actually. If people approve, we can play it too.
We can also take some Arkin punk rock or alt.

what drum instruments should I use? At my discretion?

Well, you can change something (a little), replace it, embellish it, etc. If you want).

Heh. Mostly, electronics don't really work for rock music (x. Well, okay, I'm sure something will work out. Let's do it and send it to him, okay?)
Both guitars will be there. I might even record an acoustic version so Veg doesn't have to do everything alone.

By the way, everyone who wants to sing this song can start practicing now) We can then choose the best vocal and give them a photoshopped medal. Heh.
I might record it too, although I'm not very good at clean vocals. Or rather, there are songs that I can sing more or less okay, and there are songs where I just can't hit the notes, I don't know why. And my resonators aren't working very well yet, so it sounds a bit flat, although, of course, it's better than someone who doesn't do it at all.

Wolf, could you maybe create a cover for Mozart? I played Des Irae, and I liked it.

Des Irae

Dies Irae.
You first said you didn't like it. Also, I sent you the metal version.
Hmm, how should I put it, Mozart might be a bit too intense for a crowd of music lovers who think they can play music :D Classical music isn't like the Beatles or punk rock; it's difficult to play, and you need to be a virtuoso. Although, in that song, I also looked at the tab, and it doesn't seem that difficult, so it doesn't require you to be a virtuoso, but neither I nor Veggie could handle it. How did you play it yourself? On guitar or keyboard? It's definitely easier on the keyboard, and if you could play it on guitar, you wouldn't be here with us right now :D

It has a complex solo. If you manage to nail it, that would be great, but no one will help you: D You'll be playing it all alone, maybe someone else will sing along, and that's it)).

Let's start with something simple, and no need to aim for Mozart.

Okay, let's start with The Beatles. I've already downloaded Guitar Pro, I'll install it today, and tomorrow I'll start figuring it out.

Just in case, I'll post the song. Just in case.
Good quality, almost all tags are there.

Well, you organize a choir, huh)
Veggie will organize the backing guitar there.

Damn, you keep editing messages after I've read them several times)
A Viking choir, like Ensiferum, yeah.

Installed, opened. Will we be adding electronic instruments or just percussion?

No need for electronics. I think so. Lord, do you like electronic music with vocals? If yes, you can try listening to: William Control Blaqk Audio Especially check out "The Love Letter" by the latter. It has keyboards. Although it might not be exactly what you're looking for, other songs might be similar.

This song doesn't need any electronic elements. We'll do something else later, don't worry).

The third post of this thread contains songs that have been suggested for cover versions. Feel free to suggest more, and I'll add them. They are temporarily in the third post – until they fix some issue with the forum that prevents me from properly editing the first post.

Sorry for the clumsy guitar playing; I guess my hands are shaking today.

Excuses :33
Aslo, I thought you'd be playing everything on the guitar, but you're back to electronics again.
In my opinion, you added a few off-key notes. It's better to download a Guitar Pro tab.
Tabs are here.

Haha, I just tried playing the beginning myself. In general, if you're good at guitar and can play tapping techniques well, it might work. If I were playing, it would take me a long time to learn, and it would be very tedious because it's quite difficult for me. And the speed is very fast there.

Added 2 minutes later
P.S. I'm talking about the very beginning; later, when they start playing very fast, it's even more intense.

Added 2 minutes later
Although, there's no tapping needed there. Maybe it's easier to play without it.
Well, I don't know, anyway.

Hmm. In "Lady in Black," there are only one and a half chords on an acoustic guitar; there's not much to play. The main thing is to sing it beautifully. :)

Added 5 minutes later
Maybe we should rename the topic to "Bards of the Arandor Forests"?

Lady in Black

I don't really like it.

Maybe rename the topic to "Skalds of the Arandor Forests"?

Maybe to Arandor of the Arandor Forests?

Arandors in the Arandor forests? Absurd, Arandors don't live in the Arandor forests. But I really like it! And "Help!" by the Beatles isn't really my thing, but we won't be able to find a song that everyone likes.
