I'm just going to give myself a big pat on the back because that was hard as balls, especially with no music and trying my best to stay in key and tune. I'm going to give myself the benefit of the doubt without coming across too egoistic and vote for the 2nd choice in the poll. I do sing for a band ( Lotus ) and we cover songs by Tool and A Perfect Circle. Maynard James Keenan is obviously my biggest influence and inspiration. If anyone wants to hear more covers, just ask. I can upload them in this thread. Enjoy. ;)

It wasn't bad until you got to the loud part where you starting sounding like a guy with Down's Syndrome. Just keeping it real man, but it wasn't good. The phrasing is terrible in parts.

You are also at least a 1/2 step flat around the "fatty fingers" part. Out of your range? Try taking it down a bit.
