Sister Golden Hair

I don't have much ability to sing harmonies, so I ignored them here. Instead of playing the drum section on the keyboard, I decided to try using a pre-recorded drum loop. I did this after I recorded the basic piano part, so I had fun trying to match the tempo. I started this song out by playing piano to the original recording - this provides the 'beat', although it turns out that the beat changes from verse to chorus. Probably not the best way to add drums.
I transposed this song from the key of E, once again because of my voice. I can hit the notes in E, but it sounds too tinny or thin or something.
