Michael Jackson Cover!

[MarcusJoseph]

I have just recorded myself singing "Gone Too Soon"... With my Apogee Duet. The mic I used was a Shure beta 87C. Software Logic pro.

Here it is: https://www.yousendit.com/download/Z...ZEtPSHl4dnc9PQ

Let me know what you think!

listening with laptop speakers.. you sound a lot like mj....... like a lotttttt......... but im sure you knew that

right now i can definitely tell you need more compression and reverb

you're a pretty damn good singer btw

Hi,

This is really oustanding, I thought it was the real one !!
And the instruments, playing and mix are great, like the original's.

I think I will put a link to your song to my sites if you agree ?

I will also share my tribute through my first album release on iTunes store this September, 30. It is called MJ style... (is the main song's name, that I composed in 1996 like the others of the album. I initially named the song that way because I felt it reminds MJ music) :

Cjed music/MJ Style album

best,
Jerome

[cjed]

Thanks Marcus for sharing (I finally wrote a short news pointing to the recording, as I think many will be pleased to listen to it).

Looking forward to your work (I couldn't find anything about you on Google, do you have a website or something ?)

Would be pleased to work with such a stunning singer as you (I still worked with a real sax player on a song, and the result of adding real thing was impressive)

[Pies]

sounds fantastic, you have a great voice.
I would compress the vox a bit harder and try a different reverb
something a little more rounded but that's just a matter of taste

Marcus, I couldn't tell from your picture here , how much you looked like Michael J.. Then I checked out the video, you do look and sound so much like Michael.. I enjoyed your performance very much, it was awesome!

I would like to see one of your shows, but I live too far away, in Canada..

Maybe someday though, you never know!

[Marando]

Some months ago your posted 2 other songs, I whas totally blown away how it sounded. I have the same feeling again!

If they are going to make a video about Michael Jackson, they should cast you, as you are, what I believe, the one that sounds the closest to the real Michael Jackson!

Hi, the link didn't worked for me, however I watched your other videos, and they are great (and the crow seemed to appreciate).

Would be pleased if you could make a try on my MJ Style song ;-) (search for Cjed at the iTunes Music Store).

Cjed, I looked for your song, I couldn't retrieve it on there, is there another link for me to look at your song? Or another website to find it? Thank you

Hi Elizabeth,
What iTunes store did you try (when I checked, it was available on all) ?

You can also listen to it using the player (Flash-based) here :
Cjed music

I would eventually provide a longer free sample to Marcus if he gets inspired by the 30s sample (and if it ends sounding nice we could even share publication of an extended "single" ;-))

Thank you a lot Elizabeth, you really are the first one to give me your feeling about it, I appreciate !
Moreover the whole album was done with only one instrument, without any extra effects, so I'm happy you did like the sound.

I wonder whether Marcus composes music besides singing, I would have expected to hear more about him on internet considering his talent.

cheers,
Jerome

Hello Jerome, I wondered what happened to Marcus as well? He disappeared somewhere.. I wanted to hear more of his videos also..

[cjed]

Yep, the song link also disappeared.


In the meantime, as to thank people that helped my album at iTunes, I'm providing the full album listening (through streaming) for a few days here :
