Lonely Day – System of a Down Acoustic Cover

I can’t say that I’m a huge System of a Down fan. However, there are a select few songs that I really enjoy from the band. Lonely Day is one of that select few. Maybe it’s because Lonely Day is written by System’s guitarist or because it shares a similar sound with The Animals’ “House of the Rising Sun.” Whatever the reason for liking it, I present my acoustic rendition of the tune. As I didn’t want to attempt to sing the song, I layered my instrumental interpretation of “vocals” over the basic rhythm complete with simplified solo.

As always, it’s not perfect, but, I hope someone enjoys it!

Oh yeah, and, yes, there is a little bit of “War Pigs” influence introduced into the song towards the end ;-)
