Summer of 69 (Bryan Adams)

Summer of 69 (Bryan Adams) Lyrics & Chords

Those definitely were the BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE …… My School and College Days, Where all that Life had to offer was a few exam papers, a few fat books, loadddss of friends and truckloads of fun…!!

SUMMER OF 69

This song by Bryan Adams (released in 1984) is one that almost everyone of us have at sometime or the other listened to – jived to – and have had great times with.

To me, this song is Nostalgia – It brings to me the images of some of my long lost friends from school, some school teachers, some college friends, the Xavier’s Campus at Calcutta, the Xavostav Fest, Park Street and a lot of other stuff which I came in close proximity in my formative years from middle school to college.

This rendition of mine is very different from the original – it does not have the huskiness of Bryan Adams, it is a notch lower than the original scale and most importantly, I sang it the way I always interpreted the song to be.

But I feel it still manages to bring back to me everythin I wrote about up there – and I hope you like it too.

Hey Bodhi great rendition man……versatile…Lionel Richie to kannnada to BA ……great going……

My only take is,the energy level seems a lil low for this power punch kinda number….But otherwise a bold rendition….

Subbu.

Surajit Da, Thanks a lot…will surely come up with more such classics….

Meera, Yes!! Quite a contrast I must say…! :) and thanks for liking the song….

Hey Sai…!! Thank you so very much for suc appreciation…. and the rating, too

Soumitra…. Dhonnobaad, dada…. apnar bhalo laglo, sheta amar kache khub boro ekta jinish… thnk u :)

Subbu Sir, Thanks a lot…! I agree the energy level could have been a tad bit higher, but with my feeble voice, this is all i could manage… but trust me, it is actually my dream to one day in life, sing out “Back To You” and “Heaven”, both by Bryan Adams, in the original scales and with the same energy…. God knows when that will happen :)

Regards,
Bodhi

Neha ........ said

Hey Bodhi! Awesome!
Very Very well done!

IMO sometimes we get sooo used to a particular song that we are unable to interpret it any way other than the original.

You gave a different dimension to the song by adding your own flavor to it, making it sound fresh, but without spoiling the beauty of the original! And that, I feel, is the mark of a good singer, a good cover!!

and hell, you sounded like a rockstar in this!
The expressions, energy, diction,
the improv towards the end… all simply superb!
10/5 from me!
Cheers and looking forward to more eng covers frm you….
