Hi, everyone. A couple of weeks ago, we recorded this version of John Lennon's Imagine. No piano, just guitars, bass, drums and choir. Hope you like it. Cheers!

Somehow I have to resist peer pressure and say that it is a great version to a beautiful song. And it was too fast for my taste, with the breaks too sudden, thank you. A bit perfectfied (overproduced) no grit, a voice that is nice but lacks umpf and a band that is, well just a non-special act. :|

Nothing wrong with not really liking it. I must agree with your points, especially on the vocals lacking grit or falsetto. Otherwise I did enjoy the arrangement and video.

Juan, feels weird to call you by name because my name is also Juan Carlos LOL! Bien hecho!

Honesty is good, but you're making your opinion sound like fact. If you don't change up a cover what's the point of doing it? I don't think this video will become a sensation, but it's a nice attempt at a different feel for a great song.

Hi, Jim. Of course everyone has a different point of view. Welcome. In this production I wanted to respect the speed of the original version of Lennon. Thanks for your feedback and have a nice weekend!
