This is a song I initially had slated to cover many moons from now, but then my daughter asked me to cover it and what did I do? I scrapped my plans to do something different and covered this one instead. Kids, they have a tendency to do that especially when they ask nicely. Thought it came out fairly well. I tried to incorporate kind of a Dimebag Darrell thing at the end of 'Planet Caravan' with the clean guitar solo that wrapped up this track. Most of the work came in post-production as you'd expect or I'd have this one done a week earlier than I'm releasing it right now. Oh well.




I own exactly 0% of the rights to this song. I did, however, make my own version of it, which is mine. The original song was composed by Brad Buxer and the rights are owned by Sega. There is also speculation that Michael Jackson worked on portions of this soundtrack before his troubles with the law came to light and he left the project. The game was released in 1994 on the Sega Genesis. I am simply paying homage to these musical geniuses in my own weird way. This "DERIVATIVE WORK" (look it up) is also covered under the current copyright laws and as long as I don't sell my work for money, I won't get a cease and desist letter from the copyright owners. Otherwise I gotta go pay for some licenses down at the ol' Harry Fox agency.





I do a mix of video game covers and popular songs. Here's a list of other stuff I've uploaded just to mix it up a little. And yes I'll do more song songs in the future. You should see my list of tunes I plan to cover. It's massive:
