So, once upon a time, I was in a cover band, and we played all sorts of top-charting songs from the eighties and nineties. One of the songs I wanted to play was from The Proclaimers, because I loved it! It was awesome, catchy, singable, and people danced to it! Alas, my band didn't want to cover it, so.... I decided I'd do it right now. If I'm being honest, I think this is one of my best covers. I love how it turned out!
Enjoy this week's hard rock cover song, "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers.
I have a Patreon account which allows people like you to help creative folk like me reach our goals. Right now my goal is to get to $700.00 per video. I know it's personal, but that is my break-even point. I do a new video each week. I believe we can make it and when we do, that means I'll be able to put a lot more effort into these songs and videos. I appreciate your help so much. Thank you.

Oh, did I forget to mention that ALL my patrons get access to an instant download of ALL my songs? Yeah, it's just my way of letting you know how awesome I think you are.
Enjoy great meaningful hard rock!

Hi there! I'm Jason. I'm a drummer who pretends to play guitar and sing. I also own and operate a recording studio called ArtCitySound. I do all my own engineering. I figured having videos to watch along with the music would be a good idea, so I started making my own videos, too.
To me, music means everything. It's a very meaningful part of my life, and to a large degree, defines who I am. I think there is a power in music to uplift, to heal, and to help us be better humans. Music can help give life meaning.
I'm taking it upon myself to provide as much music as I can to anyone who is willing to listen.
I invite you to visit my website MeaningfulHardRock.com (link below) and subscribe to my mailing list. As a way of saying "Thank you", I'll give you two free songs available for immediate download.
It will also keep you up to date.

Also, this week I uploaded a drum-only video of this song as well as a full version. It's the same song but just drums the whole way through. You can find that video at the link below.

For this song, I produced and performed everything myself including all arrangement, performance, production, editing, mixing, mastering, and all video editing and production.
Please subscribe if you'd like to see more videos. I really enjoy producing them, and I create a new one every week!

Lyrics:
When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next you
When I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
When I have fun, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the one's whose funnin' up with you
And if I haver, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
When I'm working, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you
And when the money, comes in for the work I do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you
When I come home (when I come home) well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you
And if I grow-old (when I grow-old) well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you
Got nothin' but love, yeah
I'm runnin' to love ya.
I'm a run, gotta love, gotta love love ya right now.
When I'm lonely, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
And when I'm dreaming, well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
When I go out (when I go out) well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
And when I come home (when I come home) yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home with you
I've got something to say! Yeah! The whole notion of true love is so messed up.
When it is all take, and no give, how can there be any love in that?
True love is to serve, to give, to sacrifice, and to be kind!!!
Got nothin' but love, yeah
I'm runnin' to love ya.
I'm a run, gotta love, gotta love love ya right now.
