🎸 Steemit Open Mic #103 Week | Zombie | The Cranberries cover

in #openmic • 6 years ago (edited)

¡Hola Steemit!
Espero que la estén pasando muy bien, hoy quiero compartir un cover que hemos preparado para
esta ocasión.

¡Espero lo disfruten!

Historia de la canción

Zombie es el primer sencillo del segundo álbum de estudio, No Need to Argue, del grupo irlandés The Cranberries, publicado el 14 de septiembre de 1994. La letra, en tono de protesta, habla sobre el conflicto de Irlanda del Norte, desde el Alzamiento de Pascua de 1916. La canción fue creada como protesta por el atentado perpetrado por la banda terrorista IRA en la ciudad británica de Warrington en 1993, en el que murieron dos niños. Se ha consagrado como el tema más popular del cuarteto irlandés. De hecho, se alzó con el premio a la Mejor Canción en los Premios MTV Europa de 1995.

Nuestra versión

Como grupo somos fanáticos de esta canción desde toda la vida, quisimos experimentar y versionar en acústico añadiendo a un violín. Aunque el tema está compuesto para cantarse por una mujer ( por la tesitura) nuestro cantante aborda esos retos haciendo las 2das voces en vez de la primera. Por mi parte en la guitarra hago las lineas del bajo para equilibrar la canción mientras que el violín hace el papel de la guitarra líder.

Letra


Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?

But you see, it's not me
It's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fightin'
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are cryin

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh

Another mother's breakin'
Heart is takin' over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme
Since nineteen-sixteen
In your head, in your head, they're still fightin'
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are dyin'

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie

What is zombie?

"Zombie" is a protest song by Irish rock band The Cranberries, written about the 1993 IRA bombing in Warrington, and in memory of two young victims, Johnathan Ball and Tim Parry. It was released in September 1994 as the lead single from their second studio album, No Need to Argue (1994). It preceded the release of No Need to Argue by two weeks. The song was written by the band's lead singer Dolores O'Riordan, and reached No. 1 on the charts in Australia, Belgium, France, Denmark and Germany. It won the "Best Song" award at the 1995 MTV Europe Music Awards.

Our version

As a musician i am fan of this song since i can remeber . We wanted to experiment and make our own acoustic version with a violín. Although the song is too high for our singer, he play with the backing vocals to generate a different color. I made the bass line on the guitar to balance the song with the highs notes.

Enjoy!

In your head, in your head, they are fightin'

And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are cryin

In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh

Another mother's breakin'
Heart is takin' over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken

      Hermano, eres quien canta? Si lo eres, te la comiste bro.
      Y si no, también lo has hecho al estar entre los que tocan.
      Cuando vi el titulo del Open Mic me interese mucho por la canción a la cual le hacen el cover, mas no esperaba encontrarme con esto. Honestamente creí que me encontraría con una mujer cantando; pero no por ello me decepcione, creo que les quedó muy bueno el cover.
      ¡Éxitos!

              Buena instrumentación. Sobre todo el guitarrista y el violinista. En cuanto al percusionista y el vocalista sentí que desentonaban por momentos, pero el resultado es satisfactorio en líneas generales. Les doy mi voto.
