About the Richie Havens “Freedom” cover!!!

I think I got it! After practicing and rehearsing this song all-day-long, I think I’ll be-able to play this song just fine with no problem! Yes, I have been rehearsing the song with a metronome so it can sound much tighter. I love playing an entire song throughout with a metronome. It’s a bit of work and kind of hard to play at a steady pace in sync with the beat — especially, when you’re playing at 130 bpm, which is what I set the tempo on. I’ll never be able to get Richie’s exact rhythm pattern with the song at all; so, I just gave the song my own take on it. I’ll have the video uploaded in youtube this weekend. I think it has potential to be another big cover of mine for youtube. It might become just as big as my Whitney Houston tribute. The Richie Havens tribute could possibly get even more views. We’ll wait and see to see what kind of feedback it’s gonna get. It’s not that hard to sing either. Like I said: the song is a piece-of-cake. I think people will like my Richie Havens tribute coming up. I can play so much better with a metronome too! It really helps and makes a difference in your playing!
