The Laptop Sessions: “I Am A Building” (Wallflowers Acoustic Rock Cover Song)
Friday, March 21st, 2008
By Jeff Copperthite:
Good evening! Despite being down about my alumnus UConn losing to San Diego not too long ago, I am happy to bring you our latest Laptop Session. I hope today finds you enjoying your upcoming Easter weekend, and if you’re like me, glued to your TV set keeping up with the NCAA tournament.
Today I bring you another Wallflowers song, and my third session from their latest album “Rebel, Sweetheart”. It’s an extremely catchy track called “I Am A Building”. I always liked this song since I first heard it because of the catchy strumming pattern and drumbeat. Looking back on the writing of songs for my album, I think the strumming pattern from “Home” is inspired from this song.
It took me a few takes to get one I was happy with for this song. I actually had three versions, and the one I have selected is the most solid. This was take #17, and despite that, I still appear to be having fun with it!
Look for Jim’s next addition to our series tomorrow, and check back on Monday when I bring you a new addition to our series.
And as far as views are concerned, I expect to break 6,000 views tonight or tomorrow. Talk about an increase in viewership! Thank you so much to all loyal Laptopsessions.com visitors.
