My own cover of Black. BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA. Long live PJ

Post by elvedin33mo »

Hey guys,

This is my small contribution to Pearl Jam covers from all around the world. Pearl Jam is THE band for me. No other band can come even close. Big impact on my life. I am a singer, I come from the city of MOSTAR, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and I have a PJ tribute band. That occasionally plays... I also have some projects on my own.

but THIS IS BLACK - sung from the depths of my PJ soul :)


I really would to hear your thoughts on my cover, and I would like you to be completely honest, ofcourse.

Best to all, and talk to you soon!

By the way, not even close. What a horrible thing to say... Nothing wrong with the photo. That says it all about your culture. I WONDER what you look like?

I didn't mean to offend you. I don't think Chud or Mecca are ugly at all.

I listened to it! It sounds just like "Black". I usually like covers to be more like re-interpretations of the song but as the singer in a Pearl Jam tribute band I guess you want to be as close to the original as possible so I think you did a good job.

Thank you for the comment. I was actually hoping for something little more than "well".... but WELL is still pretty good...

So I appreciate it... thanks.

yOU ARE RIGHT about that.

I wanted not TO BE AS EXACT as original, so I sang it - as much as I could with my OWN VOICE... but because PJ has influenced me throughout my whole life... I guess I can't escape the - "Eddie feel" in my interpretation..
