This is my version of Joji's Glimpse of Us with drums and string section. I hope you guys enjoy it and I would love to hear any feedback on how I can improve it. :) TikTok Version: • Video [ SOCIAL MEDIA ] My TikTok: / eddibear_
imagine a sad drummer just slumping over their drum kit, sobbing with tears dripping onto the equipment. This version totally conveyed that, each hit sounds so defeated and tired, totally conveying the song's sentiment. nice one!
Yes! And imagine if the guy made it that if so the drummer missed a beat here and there, like a drummer would if they were depressed and not feeling their best, or simply a weak muted beat here and there, too weak to hit it from the sheer depression. perfect way to convey a sad drummer over this
@@jethrodavison1405 they seem happy but a lot of them have a lot of pent up anger and sadness that they hammer into the drums. me being one of them, its damn therapeutic.
This is actually great god damn. I kinda half went into this thinking it was a joke bc I had just watched a video where someone played a goofy ass drum track over Joji's Glimpse of Us and I'm so glad it wasn't this was a delight
put more reverb on your drum hits and play with the velocity to give it a deeper, more acoustic sound to your kit. play with the big room reverb to make it all sound more washy and mellow, which my ear hears largely in this song(my own drums and strings are on my channel) awesome cover, keep it up!!
She'd take the world off my shoulders If it was ever hard to move She'd turn the rain to a rainbow When I was living in the blue Why then, if she is so perfect Do I still wish that it was you? Perfect don't mean that it's working So what can I do? (Ooh) When you're out of sight In my mind 'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes And that's where I find a glimpse of us And I try to fall for her touch But I'm thinking of the way it was Said I'm fine and said I moved on I'm only here passing time in her arms Hoping I'll find A glimpse of us Tell me he savors your glory Does he laugh the way I did? Is this a part of your story? One that I had never lived Maybe one day you'll feel lonely And in his eyes, you'll get a glimpse Maybe you'll start slipping slowly And find me again When you're out of sight In my mind 'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes And that's where I find a glimpse of us And I try to fall for her touch But I'm thinking of the way it was Said I'm fine and said I moved on I'm only here passing time in her arms Hoping I'll find A glimpse of us Ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh 'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes And that's where I find a glimpse of us And I try to fall for her touch But I'm thinking of the way it was Said I'm fine and said I moved on I'm only here passing time in her arms Hoping I'll find A glimpse of us
This is just perfection. The drums and string adds more depth of despair and just utter acceptance of what is to come and expect from the actions of the singer. Keep up the good work bro 📈
a subtle detail but completely flipped the scale for me was when I noticed the battery going down as the song progressed. I love this version keep up the good work.
This is wonderful, I really hope this gets more views! When I first heard the song, I thought of strings in the back and how nice it would sound, I'm happy to see it here
I've always felt this song could use some heavy hitting drum track to further accentuate it's "sad and defeated" feeling (not that the song is bad without it) and you have done it well!
The battery drain in the vid is a nice touch. Wonderful expansion on the song, and as another said, improving on the sound to echo in a way would be a version quite beautiful like this. This one is for car rides, and the other would be for being "alone slow dancing in the dark" haha.
this song just got better which i didn’t think was possible, amazing job dude you blew my mind with this version and even the cover makes it so much better it’s just such a peak song and you added to it and made it even more amazing nice job dude
Nice one man! The strings are really good! But maybe de drum should be more "expansive" for the type of song, maybe more reverb and dont "show" to much drums
how is this beautiful masterpiece going unnoticed man i'm in tears this was just amazing to listen i love it sooo sooo muchh i thought this was not gonna work this is gonna be a mess but damn you proved me wrong so glad i clicked here much love keep going
In my opinion, since this is Joji we're talking about, giving the drums a more old, used up sound like a lofi type sound would sound a lot better. It's in his fashion to use used up type percussion in his music to give it a more vintage and authentic taste.
