Another milestone! And in only 52 days! I have reached 20K views on Youtube!

I am pleased to have reached this milestone, as it brings me another 10K views to my goal of 40K by the end of the summer. I want to thank all of you loyal guitarbucketlist.com visitors. This motivates me further to continue to provide the best acoustic cover song videos that I can!

My viewcount increased 10K in 52 days. That makes my views per day stat 192.31. The past week or two (thanks mostly to my Jakob Dylan video) I have been averaging 250 views per day. And this statistic can only go up from here!

We continue to please and you can expect more songs from new bands, previously covered bands, and more top notch original music videos from Jim, Chris, and myself. Again, thank you for helping me reach this wonderful milestone. Here’s to the next 10K and beyond!

Behind the Scenes IV (Cover Music Video Series)

Welcome to a special edition video that Chris has done a few for. Now it’s my turn!

This video documents an unusual way to lose a take. We here at guitarbucketlist.com have many ways to mess up during our recordings – missed chords, forgotten lyrics, sounds in the background, etc. Thankfully you see only the best.

However, now you get a rare look!

Well, enjoy this while I get today’s session up and running!

Editor’s Note: Unfortunately, Jeff’s acoustic cover song music videos are no longer on YouTube, but we decided to keep his cover song blog posts up.  We figured these music blog entries would be good for posterity’s sake and because Jeff always gave such insightful posts each Session.  We hope to see Jeff’s impressive catalog of acoustic rock songs here on the Laptop Sessions cover songs and origianal music blog again in the future.  But, for now, please make sure to check-out hundreds of other acoustic cover songs from all of your favorite bands here on the Laptop Sessions music blog!

“My Brave Face” (Paul McCartney Cover)

Welcome to your Friday edition of the Laptop Sessions with me, Jim Fusco!

Tonight, I bring you a cool tune from Paul McCartney, “My Brave Face”. I always knew of this song, hearing it on the radio and such, but for some reason, I fell in love with it a couple years ago. I guess I never really knew it was Paul.

It’s a TOUGH song to sing and I just can’t seem to shake this cold lately, but I prepped myself by eating and drinking a lot before I did the take. It always makes me feel better.

There’s also some really tough lines to sing, as they have this odd syncopation to them. The line, “Ever since you left I have been trying to compose a ‘baby will you please come home’ note meant for you”. Are you kidding me? It took a while to get that one down.

But, I really like the way the whole video came out and I think you’ll agree it’s one of my more passionate ones.

Enjoy tonight’s video and make sure to get yourself back to https://www.guitarbucketlist.com tomorrow for another new video from the one and only Chris Moore!

“Sober” (Original Song by Indie Music Songwriter Jim Fusco)

Welcome to Original Wednesday here on the Laptop Sessions! Tonight, I bring you the first ever video starring Jim, Chris, and Becky for my original song from the new MoU album, “Homestead’s Revenge”.

“Sober” is a song I wrote a couple years ago and has become a live favorite whenever we play it. I wrote it during the recording of the first MoU album, but didn’t get to record it until recently, so it remains a “new” song.

I had Chris and Becky help me out for two reasons- first, the harmonies. Second, the fact that my voice kinda gave out tonight right before I went to record another original song called “The Game”. And, for anyone that’s heard that song before, you know it’s not one to sing with a bad vocal range! I guess that will have to wait three weeks.

I hope you enjoy this edition of Original Wednesday and I hope you’ll come back tomorrow for the continuation of “#1 Week” here at guitarbucketlist.com!
