View Full Version : Petition for Luke de Spa to record more BC covers
Kahlo 08-05-2008, 07:02 AM The Luke De Spa cover of the TFE track The Camera Eye is probably the best version of a Billy corgan song I think I have heard - It is a shame that Corgan didn't strip the tracks back like this. I'd love to hear more of his interpretations of SP/ Corgan songs.

i was afraid this cover was gonna suck since the bass line is my favorite part (missing in the cover)
but the harmonies really won me over.
A+
i'll take another.
IWishIWasBlank 08-05-2008, 08:11 AM Signed.
Kahlo 08-05-2008, 08:13 AM has anyone heard any of the other covers on thepumpkins.net?
Don't bother.
IWishIWasBlank 08-05-2008, 08:13 AM Luke's got a good voice.
RockLobster 08-05-2008, 08:16 AM no thanks!
waltermcphilp 08-05-2008, 08:21 AM i had no idea he did another cover. i heard his rocket cover- it made me cream in my pants.
somaziro 08-05-2008, 08:25 AM has anyone heard any of the other covers on thepumpkins.net?
Don't bother.

SlingeroGuitaro 08-05-2008, 08:27 AM burn! oh wait...:cry::eek:
hey where is your cupid de rawk?
Kahlo 08-05-2008, 08:33 AM burn! oh wait...:cry::eek:
I didn't listen to them all, so I'm being a little bit mean. Maybe there are a few gems I didn't hear.
IWishIWasBlank 08-05-2008, 08:37 AM False, but fun to pretend.
Kahlo 08-05-2008, 08:38 AM See the Rocket variations thread for actual SP cover goodness
skipgo 08-05-2008, 09:23 AM i like his music. i mean the songs he writes. I haven't had a chance to listen to the cover yet.
hnibos 08-05-2008, 10:06 AM his voice is making me jizz
somaziro 08-05-2008, 10:47 AM hey where is your cupid de rawk?
I started working on it, then got really busy at work, bought a house and have been remodeling it the past few weeks ... it is still on my "to-do" list whenever I get moved into my new place... but it has totally been on the back burner due to life =)
somaziro 08-05-2008, 11:06 AM I didn't listen to them all, so I'm being a little bit mean. Maybe there are a few gems I didn't hear.
didn't see my cover song under the cover song tab. guess the cover songs from the 'cover song contest' didn't get moved over to the general cover song playlist. here was mine http://www.thepumpkins.net/content/view/687/161/ + i adore adore singing and slingero with the production
IWishIWasBlank 08-05-2008, 03:42 PM Nice cover of Ma Belle, guys. Really nice.
mickyshambles 08-05-2008, 09:15 PM any chance of a luke da spaz public self-hanging?

you're crazy if you're telling me you think this is better than the real thing.
lds is a good vocalist but musically this isn't a spot on the original. and there are better sp covers out there, definitely.
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 04:33 AM Where did I say it was better than the real thing?
Anyway you are such a fanboy that any opinions you have SP related are invalidated
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 05:02 AM You live in a fantasy world
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 05:02 AM My Dad is bigger than your Dad
This has nothing to do with the mighty sp. Lock this shit.
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 05:51 AM Interpretations of SP songs have quite alot to do with SP actually.
SlingeroGuitaro 08-06-2008, 05:55 AM gouranga

Excuse me. Are you Monte?
SlingeroGuitaro 08-06-2008, 06:08 AM ouch
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 06:11 AM Excuse me. Are you Monte?
Who are you to talk to me?
But in all seriousness. I am Monte's troll. I get to say all the things he can't in real life like
"exposed ankles give me a stirring in my tighty-whities"
There I said it.
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 06:13 AM anyway, which is the least terrible SP cover album compilation?
Ones I can think of off the top of my head are:
The Gothic Industrial Tribute - Terrible
Shot full of Diamonds - Terrible
Ghost Children Tribute (1 & 2) - Not heard
String Tribute - Not bad, I like SIYL
SlingeroGuitaro 08-06-2008, 06:14 AM so basically youre a cool guy that gets to have sex, cuss, and drink beer?
SlingeroGuitaro 08-06-2008, 06:14 AM String Tribute - Not bad, I like SIYL
i dig the string tribute. its a welcome surprise when itunes decides to play it on shuffle
Kahlo 08-06-2008, 06:15 AM Because I'm a terrible person, I had some of the tracks playing at my wedding. I slowed down the sting SIYL slightly using cubase, as I think the album version is slightly too jaunty.
aztec litany service 08-06-2008, 08:03 AM i liked that arrangement of camera eye.
IWishIWasBlank 08-06-2008, 08:06 AM so basically youre a cool guy that gets to have sex, cuss, and drink beer?
I thought that was what you did now that the rest of the band is gone.
SlingeroGuitaro 08-06-2008, 08:09 AM spek
Luke de Spa 08-06-2008, 11:12 AM you're crazy if you're telling me you think this is better than the real thing.

yeah the original is awesome. why else cover it? i'd actually say it's the best thing bill has done since adore. an acoustic cover is never going to top it
Luke de Spa 08-06-2008, 11:13 AM any chance of a luke da spaz public self-hanging?
are you trying to make a name for yourself here? i don't post enough for that to work
Eulogy 08-06-2008, 11:26 AM yeah the original is awesome. why else cover it? i'd actually say it's the best thing bill has done since adore. an acoustic cover is never going to top it
i wouldn't say you topped it, but it's kind of hard to compare the two. it's also one of my favorite post-Adore billy songs, so the fact that you did something with it that i enjoy that much impresses me. it's really the only pumpkins/bc cover that i've ever kept around. mad props, bro.
avsfan7733 08-06-2008, 10:41 PM you did a great job covering that man.
now i wanna listen to TFE.
Shallowed 08-06-2008, 10:48 PM Now imagine that, except sung with a blocked nose and you've got a good version, with Billy's voice!
vitaldust 08-06-2008, 11:01 PM like to hear 'tilt'
