Here's one for the Depeche Mode fans -- a cover of *Enjoy the Silence*, which is fairly faithful to the original. Since buying my fancy-pants mic last year I hadn't actually sung anything (even though I have done a crapload of podcast recording), so this is me correcting that, and also having some fun with synths and sequencing. I did a lot of this on the laptop, so there are more Linux soft synths in there, but I still pulled out the Blofeld for the bass and the "beeeeow" sound in the chorus. Let me know what you think of the results!
