I only spent a day on this

This is instrumental

It is NOT meant to parallel the original version

I only had one mic, so each drum had to be recorded on its own track, and they are a bit imprecise at times; in the end this was probably a good thing

I am a terrible keyboard player, terrible acoustic guitar player, but I suppose I may be a halfway decent bass player

The beat for this song is NOT my style and feels a bit awkward to play (strange to say I am a prog rocker)

It is a bit long and has a long intro, sorry.

Here is the link:

J'En Ai Marre (ImRawdg Version)

You captured the essence of the song very well! It had feeling, the intro was not bad, works well in your version, and I got caught up in it, as I do the original.

It's not always how great a musician is, but how they interpret the song, which is all that matters. Congradulations.
