Steemit Open Mic Week 63 - Acoustic Remake of King Diamond's "Abigail"
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="
Heya Steemians!
I returned from the dog rescue today after picking out my new puppy I named Abigail, and since I was having a tough time deciding what I was going to play for the open mic this week, I decided to get stoned (good excuse as any) first and then learn this song on my acoustic and work up a little remake of the song.
Hope ya like it!
lyrics
"Abigail, I know You're in control of her brain, Abigail
And I know that You're the one that's
speaking through her, Abigail
Miriam can You hear me"
"I am alive inside Your Wife
Miriam's dead, I am her head..."
"Abigail, don't You think I know what
You've done, Abigail
I'll get a priest, he will know
How to get her soul back"
"Oh Jonathan, this is Miriam
Our time is out
Remember the stairs, it's the only way"
"Abigail, nothing I can do but give in, Abigail"
"follow me to the crypt"
"Abigail you aught to be reborn where you died Abigail"
"Jonathan, I agree...Yes I do"
"I am alive inside Your Wife
Miriam's dead, I am her head...soon I'll be free!!!"
Here is a photo of my new dog Abigail

Your cover is great. Why!? I did not know this song. So I listened to your version and I said, "Interesting cover!" then I listened to the original. I have to say I prefer your version but I hope my comment is ok.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much!
I really enjoy remaking these extreme metal songs on the acoustic guitar, sometimes it requires quite a bit of changing and you're not the only one that prefers my versions.
Did your dog enjoy as well?
Of course
Cool :) Otherwise it may have been a hard choice :)
That was so dark and tortured, I loved it!!
Thank you Lyndsay
If I hear a drop tuned guitar , i'm instantly drawn in! haha :p . Nice deep sound my bro . Abigail surely found a nice new home btw :) . Cheers !
Thank you very much and yes, she's a lucky girl.
Long live King ! \m/

This is awesome! I love King Diamond, and this made me happy:)
Thanks man!
King is one of the greats indeed
My heart is with you, man. Don’t know that I could truly “enjoy” this, however, I trust that Abigail’s kindred soul will to some extent replace, and more importantly, “honor” the recently lost soul of your most precious “Apollo.”
Thank you, Abigail is a fine little pup indeed.
I never heard the song before. Kind of like it. May be I am weird but thanks man.
Thanks man :)
If liking this kind of music makes one weird, then I'm as weird as they come \m/
