Gold Dust Woman cover (Fleetwood Mac) - reimagined as a swing tune

[Jascoduende]

I thought some forum members might enjoy this. I rearranged Fleetwood Mac's "Gold Dust Woman" as a swing tune.

What do you think about it done in this style?

I think you need to find another forum.

I realize that a lot of metal-heads have a fairly narrow scope of what they like.
But there are also quite a few who are open-minded to like other styles.

Gold Dust Woman is supposed be this dark, haunting, almost lament about a woman's current life. This upbeat cover misses the point of the song.

Talented but ........

Thanks listening and for your input.
I'd always imagined it as a symbolic look at a woman struggling to cope with excess substance abuse while trying to survive the pressures of the music industry. What made me think of a more up-tempo arrangement was both "Gold Dust" representing cocaine, and how frantic the music biz can be.

Here's a live version of this same arrangment for comparison/contrast to the studio version I posted above.

I apprciate the talent, but I do not feel the music works with the lyrics. It's almost like two completely different songs being palyed simultaneously.
