LAST COVER OF MARCH!!! :D
To end off the month of March and send out winter, I decided to cover a highly requested song, but with a little more fun than I normally do :P One of the main reasons this cover was requested was because of an amazing individual known as JonTron. By channeling his energy, I have crafted what I hope to be the best cover I have ever made. EVER! In fact I'm so certain you'll love it, that you will be uncontrollably compelled to write, "THIS IS THE BEST COVER I HAVE EVER HEARD. EVER." (make sure it's in all caps too :P) But in all lack of seriousness, I hope y'all enjoy this silly cover and share it with a friend who needs a laugh :)
A HUGE shout out to y'all for sticking with for these past few years :) There's some BIG plans for 2016, so bring along a friend and stay tuned~ You're not gonna want to miss this ;)
Mixing, editing, and vocals by: Caleb Hyles
Music: Firework by Katy Perry
Cover inspired by JonTron

I assumed it was a well placed adjust, because he knew he needed more moisture in his vocals to pull it off. (Made this assumption judging by his reaching for the water bottle mid-chorus)

+Zayth why even leave a comment like this......

[@CryzzG]

You should check out jontron's cover of this song too. Equally amazing. Love them both !

[@SuperJames526]

THIS WAS THE FUNNIEST VERSION OF THE COVER THAT I EVER HEARD! *EVER!* I'm surprised that after 5 years it came out, you didn't know the lyrics of the song. That's okay, not all of us can sing as the wickedly talented Caleb Hyles. Keep up the PHENOMENAL work you do so very well. Cheers all the way from Minnesota!

[@ToxicTears]

I can't quite describe my excitement at finding this cover! I was listening to some of your other songs a few days ago and I noticed that your voice does sometimes sound a lot like Jontron, who until some what recently I was a big fan of. Unfortunately, I'm not anymore, and one of the saddest losses for me was listening to his cover of this song.😂 When I saw you'd covered it I screamed hahaha. This was wonderful!

[@findursox548]

Toxic Tears But you can always look back at JonTron's videos! Short Controversy doesn't matters, entertainment is and you should feel free and look back! :D

[@somedudewatchintv5297]

Fury Gravity what happened?

[@findursox548]

Basically JonTron was accused by the internet for saying "Black people commit most of the crimes" during a debate against Destiny. Most people got it the other way so they started getting mad at JonTron but fortunately everything is clear with Jon. Remember, one simple sentence can almost wipe out your career.

[@somedudewatchintv5297]

Fury Gravity I'm not sure I understand, did he actually say that or did someone seriously mishear him?

[@findursox548]

Somedude Watchintv People were Triggered when he said "Rich Black people commit the most crimes" which was heard many times. You can find out the situation in Drama Alert or Scarce if you still don't get it.

[@dubproduction879]

[Verse 1] Do you ever feel like a plastic bag Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again? Do you ever feel, feel so paper-thin Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in? Do you ever feel already buried deep? Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you? 'Cause there's a spark in you [Pre-Chorus] You just gotta ignite the light And let it shine Just own the night Like the Fourth of July [Chorus] 'Cause baby, you're a firework Come on show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework Come on, let your colors burst Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" You're gonna leave them all in awe, awe, awe [Verse 2] You don't have to feel like a waste of space You're original, cannot be replaced If you only knew what the future holds After a hurricane comes a rainbow Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow And when it's time, you'll know [Pre-Chorus] You just gotta ignite the light And let it shine Just own the night Like the Fourth of July [Chorus] 'Cause baby, you're a firework Come on, show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework Come on, let your colors burst Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" You're gonna leave them all in awe, awe, awe [Bridge] Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon It's always been inside of you, you, you And now it's time to let it through [Chorus] 'Cause baby, you're a firework Come on, show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework Come on, let your colors burst Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" You're gonna leave them all in awe, awe, awe [Outro] Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

I personally think that this is better than the original, you should do another. Love it!!

[@davidmassey8773]

Nice adjust for the first chorus from the first verse. The gradual note rise from the beginning into the first chorus sneaks up on you. I saw that smirk behind the adjustment as you made it. That was an awesome catch. Winging it and playing with your voice in the first place is what probably landed you where you are today. You have a pretty great grasp on your own limits, as well as a good vision of what you want something to sound like. Improvising and running with it, coming out this clean makes it pretty clear to see that you're very talented and could probably even arrange and write your own original stuff. Keep doing what you do! You're great. And yeah, the first time I tried to do the chorus, the exact same thing happened to me, that happened to you when you said "fuck it i'm just going to have to belt it". Except... I'm pretty sure my vocals began to give out after my third attempt at the chorus. I feel your pain there haha. Your vocal tone and distortions you add to give more texture to your sound in your other, more polished covers are pretty great too.
