 I think we should cover "The Rain, The Park, and Other Things" by the Cowsills. It's a catchy song a lot of people know, and is a perfect seque into the future of Vera the Ghost's melodies, which I want to write to where more often than not both me and Leslie have parts. We could maybe even learn it and only play it if we play an acoustic set or

Don't think I've heard that song, but I'll try to find it and check it out!

it's my myspace song right now.

It's just a really good example of bouncing melodies, the kind of thing i'd love to write.

I guess that could work. It's kind of boring and muddled, though.

I agree to the extent that I don't think it could work as a live cover, but I think acoustically it wouldn't be bad. It's disturbingly catchy in my opinion.

I feel like if you sped it up a bit, removed a little of the layering on the vocals (which you would actually have to, anyway, unless you get Jeremy and Tony both to sing) it could work. Might be too much work for a two-minute song, though.

yeah. i've been messing around on my guitar with the chords....turning the vocals into a two person thing and just having jeremy play the guitar is about all i'd want to do.

I don't want to invest too highly into any cover. You saw us play take on me. haha.
