Title: Best song for chi.
Post by: cmndrctrlr on Apr 07, 2010, 09:57 AM
I know it's been done before and in no way am I trying to steal their thunder, but I wanted to make a tribute video for chi and I was wondering what the best deftones song would be. I'm even toying with the idea of making it a mash up kinda thing.
So do let me know.

Thanks in advance.

And sorry to the guys who've already out their vids up. I'm just following your footsteps.

Something uplifting. Minerva? Or relevant. Good Morning Beautiful?

They're all good suggestions come to think of it. Luck You and Good Morning Beautiful would be perfect.

But I'm kinda leaning towards digital bath for some reason... Dunno if its a good idea though...

you know.. i have been meaning to do one for chi and i just haven't had time because i am doing so many other things for him that take higher priority.. but i will pass this on as what song *I* would use.. and it isn't a deftones song at all.. My Hero- Paramore [Cover: Originally by Foo Fighters] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7WutJSda6M#)... i think it's perfect. chi is my hero!

one love for chi,
gina

Hey Gina,

Wow, it totally skipped my mind, being a fan of the foo fighters and all. But i was kinda hoping to use a song that Chi plays on, maybe it's the fanboy in me, but i feel, it'll be more of a homage that way.

But thanks a lot Gina, will definitely keep My Hero in consideration =D

I love his bass on Cherry Waves, Needles & Pins, and Dai the Flu - but out of all of them, I'd pick Headup.

Cherry Waves would be awesome.  8) I love his bass in that.

I still say Dai the Flu but honestly..............976-EVIL is obviously written about Chi and the mood of the song is perfect.

No Further.........

not too fond of Paramoe, but that version was pretty good indeed..

Hehe this is getting harder by the minute, every song you guys have posted on here seem perfect, but there some serious Dai The Flu inclination on this board. Still working on getting the footage together, so i guess we have another day to finally get the right song.

Wanna get the video up as soon as possible.

Thanks to all your inputs though. It almost seems encouraging.

I think the instrumental from SNW would be perfect. It's mellow, easy going and Chi's bass really stands out on it. :)

THE BOY'S REPUBLIC! It never seems to get that much love and it's one of their more positive songs. Plus I love the live acoustic version they played in Hawaii when Chi using the acoustic bass. Classic stuff.
