More 5G Than Man
I had a little free time today, so I put this together this cover of EPAA:
YouTube - U2 - Elvis Presley And America cover
As you can tell, there was a whole lot of necessary work to be done in order to perform this song like you would anything else in U2's canon. For starters, the tab I used was very simple:
Capo - 3rd fret
Verses: Cmaj7-G
Break (2:25): Fmaj7-C-Fmaj7-C-Fmaj7-G-Fmaj7-G
The additional riff that pops up is as follows:
e|--3-3-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5--
b|---3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---
A good number of the lyrics were rewritten, although they often sound about as same, as they are phonetically similar to the original set. Much of it is still gibberish, but you can actually hear it now, which is either a good or a bad thing, depending on your view.
There are not a whole lot of Elvis Presley And America covers out there, so it's a novelty, if nothing else. Just figured it would be an interesting experiment.
