The Chapman Family - Anxiety (Bad Cover Version)

The Chapman Family

So...  although no one actually requested I cover "Anxiety" by The Chapman Family, I wanted to do it anyway on account of the fact that the 26 / 07 / 14 was the one year anniversary of their splitting up and their final gig at The Georgian Theatre, Stockton.

I got into The Chapman family at rather a late stage, seeing them live twice - both times at The Georgian Theatre, Stockton in 2013. What I really liked about them was their energy and stage presence. I think they were one of those bands who needed to be seen in a live context in order to fully appreciate them.

Anxiety is probably my favourite song by The Chapman Family. Online resources indicate to me that The Chapman Family were not that into other bands and artists so who knows what they'll make of this cover, should they ever even see it?

Bad Cover Versions

"Well... I'm afraid that just sounds like a bad cover version of something else..."

I'm pretty sure I've never been into doing cover versions and have always expressed as much.

I say alot of things.

It doesn't mean they are true.

Could you please just hold this for me a second while I shoot myself in the head...?

So while I'm pottering away in the studio recording my album I figured I might pass some time and do some youtube bad cover version requests for fun.  For future reference, every request I do will be added to the following playlist:

The first request (see above) was "True Love Waits" by Radiohead / Thom Yorke. You know? That song from the "I might be wrong" Live E.P?  It was requested by a white haired lady named Becky Jackson.
Some of the more freakier Radiohead / Thom Yorke fans may notice that I went for the "to have you be in peace" line over the "to have your babies" line. Although it's been a long established fact that the latter is the genuine lyric, I can never actually seem to remember this when I'm singing. So...  there you go.

So...  make a request if you must.
I'll sing anything you want.
Challenge me. 

I'll give you the credit. 

Or not.

Now, tell me what it is that you want me to do.
