Careless Whisper - George Michael - Cover
Careless Whisper - George M... Lyrics & Chords
Careless Whisper ( George Michael )
I feel so unsure
as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
as the music dies, something in your eyes
calls to mind the silver screen
and all its sad good-byes
I’m never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I’ve been given
so I’m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you
Time can never mend
the careless whispers of a good friend
to the heart and mind
ignorance is kind
there’s no comfort in the truth
pain is all you’ll find
I’m never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste this chance that I’ve been given
so I’m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we’d want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But noone’s gonna dance with me
Please stay
And I’m never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I’ve been given
so I’m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Very very good song pick ….love this song. Very nice attempt sumit ….but feel that you can do much better than this ….have heard some of your earlier covers. There were some tempo issues and also some pitchy places ….also expressions could be improved ….I know you can do better than this…:)

I will be taking a more serious perspective towards them :-) . Thanks for feedback again. will record the song again sometime and post it as 2nd attempt :-)

good job Sumit… the high part went a bit off (noone’s gonna dance with me),, but overall it was real good… enjoyed listenin to it :) Cheers!!!!
Sumit Rai said
Thanks Neha :-) , you picked it up correctly :-) i am working on improving on high pitch . Glad you enjoyed listening , thanks for listening n feedback :-)
Regards,
Sumit
Neha ........ said
well, you need to sing in a high pitch almost throughout this song… its not easy, and u did a fab job, its just tht single point where it went a bit off, overall it was real good… keep em coming! :-)
Janhavee said
Sumit,
Good song selection, one of my favorites of George Michael. Your voice suits this song very well.
But through out the song, i felt you are not at ease :-) :-)….i have heard other English numbers of yours and you have done a Greatjob on it. If time permits.Give it another shot.
Cheers

This was very original Sumit. I thought you didnt try to copy George Michael, which would have been a losing battle. There were problems and others have pointed most of em out. Overall, you captured the essence and still made it your own. Good job! 5/5 from me for the brave effort and the originality shown.
-George

This was a good attempt sumit. I think you started off really well….but towards the end from 2:49 it started getting a little pitchy. I guess it was because of the high notes. Overall, this was a very good job!

Subbu said
nice pick Sumit-But honestly i dont think it s a right match for your timbre……your ideal genre in my view is some good country numbers a…ka don williams type….and some rock numbers of metallica like NEM etc….not GM who has a feminine voice at higher range……you may be more comfortable with your expressions in this genre,my view AU.

Subbu.

Vikram Js said
I am sorry. Just couldnt connect with this cover. Probably better mixing and timing the vocal inflections and intonations (or whatever they are called) right and making them smoother would help. Post – 3:00 mins had significant pitching problems.
Sumit Rai said
Ya vikram, harshan also pointed about timing n mixing problems , also noted pointers about vocal inflections , pitching etc. thanks for listening n giving honest feedback :-)

Sumit,
Sorry…it’s out of my reach…I am not used to listen to western numbers. But I enjoyed your singing. May be this way I might get into the habit of listening more song of this genre.
Good job done my friend.

Deepak Nayak said
Good job mate… Nicely done… I felt a little hesitation while singing… Like as if you have sung it in the night and you’re afraid of waking your neighbors up!! :P
All in all it was done well… It was a little shaky towards the end though… I mean the notes…
Recording has a long way to go… Gear up dude!! So goes with mixing… All the best… Cheers… \m/

“Its all bout music and it always will be!”
Sumit Rai said
Thanks Deepak :-) … exactly it was done 1 am in the night and i was making sure that the music doesn’t wake up my parents :-) They did complain in the morning though :-) Ya i know … about the notes i could have done better job on that :-). Will make sure that recording n mixing goes better for me next time :-) thanks a lot for listening n feedback :-)
Sudeip Ghosh said
Sumit this was good ….
your voice and recording and mix were very correct…
i think DJ summarized the comments aptly well
honestly
i thot this was more like Axl Rose doing a George Michael song….you have a very rock voice !!! do some Rock stuff !!! try Dylan , floyd , deep purple….actually delete that….i think you should do more of Guns N Roses
i can feel you want to scream !!!!! but its like listening to those bollywood metal songs…where you WANT THAT DAMN SOLO but they compensate with it some table solo or something !
just go for it and scream your lungs out man !
i dont think ballads are much of your genre
try Skid Row if you can !
~ Muziboo…get an audience…BECOME A STAR !!!
Sumit Rai said
dude … i want to do all those … but i just cant get there karaoke :-) My guitaring skills are novice so i cant create my own track :-) lol man i totally agree about those rock guitar players in bollywood industry :-) poor guys :D .
