A metal arrangement of "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey from the album "Merry Christmas".
So funny story with this cover, I actually arranged most of this a couple of years ago as this was intended to be a cover with my band Oroborus (links down below!) but obviously the whole pandemic thing kinda made that idea fizzle away. And I totally forgot about this arrangement until a couple of weeks ago, and I thought "eh screw it I'll finish it off myself!".
So this is actually probably up there as one of my least favourite songs of all time! No disrespect to Mariah Carey, but I'm really not a fan of this song, so my idea with this cover is let me ruin it my own way by making it heavy and doing all screams and distorted vocals!
There's not much to add to this one, other than I'm really happy with how the arrangement actually turned out, with the someone djenty/8 string guitar riffs and just how it grooves in 12/8! Vocals were a bit of a challenge as I'm out of practice but I think I pulled off what I wanted to do! And lastly the mix wasn't very difficult at all, the 8 string guitar really blends nicely with my Dingwall and the drums cut through just right! Hope you enjoyed my silly cover or at least got a good laugh out of this, and hopefully 2023 will be a good year!
