This classic song by Gordon Lightfoot was really fun to cover. I made a total of ten tracks. Two acoustic guitar tracks and a third track for the electric guitar solo stuff. I had three background vocal tracks for the chorus harmony and then three tracks for drums and bass.
Then I sing the melody live over the studio tracks to make a complete version of the song.
Here is the song and then below I have a spoof version called "Sundar" because YouTube removed many channels.
Sundown by Gordon Lightfoot - Cover Song
Sundown by Gordon Lightfoot
I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress
In a room where ya do what ya don't confess
Sundown you better take care
If I find you beenn creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sundown ya better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
She's been lookin' like a queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
I can picture every move that a man could make
Getting lost in her lovin' is your first mistake
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
I can see her lookin' fast in her faded jeans
She's a hard lovin' woman, got me feelin' mean
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
