A beautiful video

146 words

I’d been working on this for a while. I finished by adding the vocals, when I realised you could plug a Rock Band USB microphone into a Mac, and it would work.

I’ve thought for a while that Christina Aguilera’s song deserved a fast, loud, and slightly caustic rock version, and I finally got round to finishing one.

I must give credit to Clem Snide for their slower alt-rock version. Mine is faster and more dissonant. One influence is the faster old Placebo songs, which is why the vocals are distorted they way they are (also to save my blushes).

I’m sure lots of people have done similar - I’ve deliberately not sought them out.

All my own work, except for the basis of the drum patterns, which are Apple loops, modified to fit the song.

The video’s cobbled from pictures found among the tubes, along with a few personal friends.
