about

Welcome to the first track of April here on #TuneUpThursdays.

I decided that I didn't have a theme this month. I couldn't think of one in time, and I had already started on a piece that wasn't going to fit in any kind of category. But also because it's my birthday month, and I can do whatever I want.

This week's song is one that I've had on the back burner, just waiting to be covered. Initially, I was going to wait for a theme that this song would fit under before actually recording. However, with the quarantining and the self isolating happing all around the world, people started to get creative. A comedian by the name of Dana Jay Bein (#DJB) ended up writing Coronavirus lyrics to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, and they were damn good.

So please enjoy my cover of the Pentatonix arrangement of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", with DJB's lyrics - "Coronavirus Rhapsody", as transcribed by George Wu).

And as always, if you like what you hear, please share with your friends and family.

Side note: I love to collaborate!!! If you'd like to record a Tune-Up Thursdays track with me, just drop me a line at Aerhyn.Lau@gmail.com and we'll work on something together to record!

If you have an acapella arrangement of a song you've been working on, please share it with me and i'll do a recording of it!
