Wordy Rappinghood is one of my favorite songs eeeeever, I was so obsessed when I was little. I’d totally do a cover of that track, it’s kinda JACKIEcore when you think about it. I’m sad this cover didn’t click with you! I went for a very mechanical MIDI sound intentionally as I was really trying to create what I think late 90s clip-art/art software would sound like as a genre, covering a hit. (hence the “oh no!” near the beginning that is pulled from Kid Pix) It’s definitely done a lot more ironically than my Bizarre Love Triangle cover, which was done with very careful attention to staying faithful to the original and matching the energy. Also, there’s literally no way for anyone to compare to the original recording of the Genius of Love bassline.

In my opinion, this lacks the laid-back feeling of the original. It sounds stiff and mechanical, and I've given it two listens. Chris and Tina sounded as if they were high when they recorded their version in fact, I'd bet money on it they were. lolz I wouldn't say I like many song covers, but I do love your New Order cover. Your Genius of Love cover doesn't do it for me, however. Have you considered covering Tom Tom Club's "Wordy Rappinghood"?
