VALENSIA IS DOG SHIT WANK....Thats all I have to say.
Why do you think that? You can say a lot of things about Valensia, but not that he is not talented... You may not like his music but...
After hearing Valensias versions of Boh Rhap, My fairy king and Man from manhattan I think calling Valensia dog shit wank is calling Queen dog shit wank
this is download at Valensias website and only can say: INCREDIBLE!!!
take that, robbie williams!!!
I was kinda hoping he was a chick....
My older brother had Queen II when I was little, and I thought Freddie was a chick too.
Even after looking at Killer Queen I still thought he is a chick!
By the way Valensia is a groupsname, in case the name is confusion for a chicksname. His real name is Byron Clarkson
BTW, the European edition of the Queen Tribute will include an a capella version of YTMBA.
The guy needs to be a bit more original, rather than copy everything Queen did. Thats why I said, and still think that hes DOG SHIT WANK. A Fucking rip off merchant.
Well.. actually.. Valensia doesn't really copy Queen...and if you're referring to the Queen tribute album...DUH!!! But anyway..Valensia definatly has the Queen-sound, but that is not copying... there are other artists who sound Queen-ish, but thats just the music-genre... because to say Queen's music is unique thats pretty arrogant..it's recognizable as Queen, thats for sure...
Ow, and I'm not trying to bring Queen down (they rock ass!) but I just tried to make a point..so I hope I did :)
peace!
Cool, an A Capella verstion of "You Take My Breath Away" on the European Queen Tribute! Guess I will be buying that CD too :)
I love the version of "Liar" on that CD. Imagine he wanted it to be more like "Bohemian Rhapsody", but didn't had enough time to perfect it.
BTW, My signed Japanes Queen Tribute CD Booklet is on it's way back to Holland :) Yeah! I've been waiting since june for this :)
"Imagine he wanted it to be more like "Bohemian Rhapsody", but didn't had enough time to perfect it."
He also planned to include Somebody To Love - which wás recorded I think... The original plan was to include a Queen version of "Green" from the FM boxset, but that got cancelled because Valensia thought it was unreleased (so that it would be hard with royalties etc) - I told him it WAS released officially and he said he might record it :-P
BTW Paul, I already told you the package was sent yesterday from Spain, right? Let's hope it doesn't take 3.5 months to get back here :-P
Ah so now he is planning to record it anyway. I thought he put that idea aside. Well, if he needs some help with it (like putting some extra vocals in) I'm glad to help :P
Yeah, you're right about the package, Pim, but once the package is outside of Spanish borders, I think it'll go very fast ;)
