Welcome back one and all to another quarantined edition of #TuneUpThursdays.
For this birthday month of mine, I'm covering songs that I've been itching to cover for years, and this one is no exception. I've actually wanted to sing an acapella arrangement of this song ever since I heard the song on the radio.
Found an arrangement of the song on
musescore.com, but something about it didn't really gel with me. So I used it as a base to start from, and made changes to suit my style, and heard a little section of Boyce Avenue's cover of the song, and incorporated that into my version.
Please enjoy my arrangement of Vanessa Carlton's hit "A Thousand Miles", inspired by the arrangement by Zachary Toom for the University of Akron's "Nuance" A Cappella group, with a little sprinkle of Boyce Avenue.
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
