Hive Open Mic Week 235 // What's my age again? (Bass Cover) By @musicandreview

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


I'm really sorry for not complying with the theme of the week, but I couldn't come up with anything even though “The Heaven” seems to have a lot of material to cut, maybe I'm not in the mood for the kind of songs that could inspire the theme. So once again I bring you a bass cover of a song that had been playing in my head for days. Lately I have felt like listening to the songs I listened to in my adolescence and well, some of blink-182 came up in the playlist.

So I bring you “What's my age again?” from the album Enema of the State which was released in 1999. In that album we can find very famous songs like “Adam's Song” and “All the Small Things”, among others. For this bass cover I took the original song and edited it by adjusting and reducing to the right beats some sections in such a way that the most striking part of the song was kept. I removed the original bass with the Moises app to record my line cleanly.

I hope my presentation will be to everyone's liking, best regards!

De verdad lamento no cumplir con la temática de la semana, pero no se me ocurrió nada a pesar de que "The Heaven" parece tener bastante tela para cortar, quizá no estoy de animo para el tipo de canciones que pueda inspirar la temática. Es así que una vez más traigo un cover de bajo de una canción que tenía días sonando en mi cabeza. Últimamente he tenido ganas de escuchar las canciones que escuchaba en mi adolescencia y pues, algunas de blink-182 surgieron en el playlist.

Es así que traigo "What's my age again?" del álbum Enema of the State que fue lanzado en el año 1999. En dicho álbum podemos encontrar canciones muy famosas como "Adam's Song" y "All the Small Things", entre otras. Para éste cover de bajo tomé la canción original y la edité ajustando y reduciendo a los compaces correctos algunos tramos de manera tal que lo más llamativo se mantuviera. Eliminé el bajo original con la app Moises para así grabar mi línea de manera límpia.

Espero que mi presentación sea del agrado de todos. ¡Un fuerte abrazo!

Lyrics

I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feelin' right
We started makin' out and she took off my pants
But then I turned on the TV

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

Then later on, on the drive home
I called her mom from a payphone
I said I was the cops and your husband's in jail
This state looks down on sodomy

And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by prank phone calls
What the hell is call ID?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And you still act like you're in freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me?
My friends say I should act my age

(What's my age again?)
(What's my age again?) That's about the time that she broke up with me
(Please, stay with me) no one should take themselves so seriously
(Please, stay with me) with many years ahead to fall in line
(Please, stay with me) why would you wish that on me?
(Please, stay) I never wanna act my age
(With) what's my age again?
(Me) what's my age again?

What's my age again?

Likewise! Best regards!

Yes this is a cool song and you play bass too very good brother this is good to hear 👍👍

Thank you for your compliments, I am happy that this presentation has reached you. Best regards!

You are brothers, Yes this is really nice and cool

WOW 😲! But 23 is a very good age. I don't think I will not love someone because he is just 23. What a lovely song.
Thanks for sharing

Yep, it's an interesting song with some grace haha. It was a pleasure to share!

Bro, te quedó super brutal 🔥🔥🔥... estas canciones donde el bajo son muy imponentes y más cuando hablamos de punk, ufff merecen tener este sonido a la hora de un buen cover, simplemente me encantó, te felicito de pana 🤘... Creo que si buscamos asociar tu canción elegida con la temática, podríamos decir que incluso recordar nuestros mejores momentos con la música forman parte de ese bienestar que necesitamos siempre, es como sentarnos en la grama y ver el cielo y sus nubes, esto es algo parecido porque nos desconecta de la realidad 🙏❤️... Te mando un gran abrazo Bro y que tengas una grandiosa semana 🙌😀💛.. You Fuc&%$ Rockkk!!! 👊😎🔥🎙️🎸🎶❤️🌟🍻💥💫💯

En bandas como blink-182 el bajo suele resaltar ya que en teoría solo usan 3 instrumentos, así que siempre se va a distinguir bastante bien, ademas, en el punk el bajo siempre ha tenido mucho protagonismo. Por otro lado, sigo buscando buenos sonidos para los covers que hago, poco a poco voy encontrándolos.

Y si, como bien dices, recordar buenos momentos de la adolescencia nos desconecta por momentos de la realidad. Me alegra mucho que te haya gustado ésta entrada bro. ¡Nos vemos!

WoW lo mejor de estas canciones cuando uno las escucha es que por momentos se viaja al pasado en la mente porque vaya que son muchos años de haberla escuchado en su apogeo y mas aun por esa actriz porno que salia en el video 😅

Las canciones buenisimas de esa banda pero esta portada, ese video y esta mujer ayudaron a potenciarlo. Grato haber escuchado este buen performance del bajo y los gratos recuerdos de esa preciosa muchachona 😍

No había caído en cuenta con lo de la actriz nopor 😅, supongo que era muy joven. Y bueno, considero que las canciones de esa época son la mejores de esa banda.

Fue un gusto compartir bro!

Awesome performance

Wao, this is so good and lovely. I really enjoyed it

If you enjoyed it then the purpose of this presentation has been fulfilled. Thank you for your support!

Yeah I did. You are welcome and I hope to see more often

What a wonderful performance

I'm glad you liked it. Have a nice day.

Even so, you always leave everything in every cover you perform and you can tell that every time you do it better and with more passion, that's what's important, well, in my feathered opinion haha 🦉

Very good job 👌😍

I try to do the best I can in each of my presentations, I hope to improve with each one of them. Thank you very much for your support. Have a nice day! 😉

I too have been listening to you for a long time and am a fan of your voice. The song is so amazing and the lyrics are so good. I enjoy listening to it.

Great cover, I loved it!!! 😃

Beautiful presentation
