If you've been participating in our live discord chat (join if you haven't already!), you know that a rivalry has slowly been brewing between me and fellow Bandaid member @konstidee . Some are already saying this is the next Tupac/Biggie or Taylor Swift/Katy Perry rivalry. He claims he sings the best Avril covers. I claim I sing the best Avril covers. We've decided to settle the score and let you, the BA forum members, be the judges. My only regret in making this thread is that we might actually be too good, which may sour everyone on the original Avril recordings. It's a calculated risk that I'm willing to take. I'll start off the competition with one of the most hardcore songs in Avril's discography: Wish You Were Here (Walmart soundcheck)
(Everyone else is more than welcome to share their covers and challenge us. Just remember, come at the king you best not miss) Edit: I'll post all of the songs here so they'll be easy to access for everyone: Round 1: Wish You Were HereNeil (Walmart soundcheck) konstidee (Studio) Round 2: When You're Gone (Studio)konstidee Neil Jewel (Download)
Round 3: Anything But Ordinary (Studio)konstidee Neil
Round 4: Breakaway (unreleased demo)
konstidee Neil
BONUS SONGS:
Paramore - Hard Times (Neil)

I'm actually waiting by the phone for Avril's people to hire me as a backup vocalist. Maybe I need to give them my number again to make sure they have it.

I think singing When You're Gone is going to kill my voice for a week but I'll do it for the people I updated the OP with everything we've done so far and I will continue to update it as we release more stuff.

It nearly killed me but I posted my cover of WYG. I'm not proud of it because it could have been a lot better, but I couldn't do too many retakes . I also added Jewel's cover of the song in the OP. Even though part of this thread is about me and konstidee's deadly rivalry, everyone is highly encouraged to post their covers! As a masochist, I have chosen our next song to be Anything But Ordinary

Finally got around to recording Anything But Ordinary. I added it to the OP. It's easily my worst effort by far but I'm happy to say I kept all of Avril's Canadianisms in my cover The next song will be Breakaway (unreleased - eventually turned into the Kelly Clarkson hit song).

Added both konsti and my covers of Breakaway to the OP. I didn't think my cover was that bad but the original vocals were a little loud in this recording. I also did a cover of the new Paramore single Hard Times as a bonus and added it to the OP . The song is harder to sing than you might think!

I'd like to hear Let Me Go LOL I was literally about to post that LMG would be the next song. It'll be a little more complicated because we have to record the Avril and Chad parts separately and combine them but it'll be interesting to say the least
