My piano version of Avril Lavigne's "Things I'll Never Say"

2008-02-01

This isn't new — about 6 years old, infact. Martin M. kindly wrote in to ask where my cover rendition of Avril Lavigne's (and yes, I did used to be a big fan) "Things I'll Never Say" was, and when I asked for help searching it down ('cuz evidently, I don't have my own copy, he helped out. So here it is…

Even if you don't know the original, it's a pleasant romp. The tempo's a little unsteady in parts to my now-more-mature ears, but there's enough sly bits of "Sk8er Boi", "Complicated", and even a little V. Carlton riff at the end — if you know what I mean — to make up for it.

I haven't listed to Avril's more recent albums, but I did like this incredibly well-done music machinima-thing made in The Sims 2.

I'll put this up with the rest of my piano recordings.

Gosh, I sometimes think to myself I've got to record more…

Torley, that's amazing, and if you like JayDee's Sk8er Boi machinima, check out this (Not Another Nightlife Movie, and this (Helena by My Chemical Romance, a BEAUTIFUL drama story made in The Sims 2 by the same creator). Enjoy! ;)

Torley, thats absolute great sound. I think the difference to the original song from Avril are the best parts. Since a long time i watch your YouTube channel and listen your piano sounds and i hope for more creative creations in the next time :-)

Friendly greetings, from germany.
