Careless Whisper is one of the most iconic ballads of all time. The moment that smooth saxophone melody starts, you know exactly what song it is. But this time, I wanted to try something different—a dual lead guitar cover that combines both the vocal melody and the saxophone lead, each played on separate guitars. The result? A rich, expressive instrumental interpretation of this timeless track.

Some songs just never lose their emotional power, and Careless Whisper by George Michael is one of them. Known for its unforgettable saxophone melody and heartbreaking lyrics, this 80s classic has been covered in countless ways—but for this version, I wanted to approach it differently: with a clean, reverb-drenched guitar tone, focusing entirely on melody and feeling.

Few songs scream "80s rock anthem" louder than Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) by Journey. With its iconic synth intro, driving guitar riffs, and emotional vocal lines, this track is a staple of classic rock history. For this guitar cover, I set out to capture that same epic feel—translating the song's melodic hooks and rhythmic power into a guitar-driven instrumental. 

The Rayman series is known for its whimsical, creative worlds and memorable music, but not all of its tracks are lighthearted. Skops the Scorpio stands out as one of the darkest and most intense themes in the original Rayman game, perfectly fitting the menacing atmosphere of the Skops boss battle. So, I decided to take on the challenge and bring this haunting track to the guitar!

Few game soundtracks are as fun, wacky, and chaotic as Rayman Origins, and Gloo Gloo is a perfect example. This underwater chase theme is one of the most memorable tracks in the game, blending high-energy rhythms, quirky vocal parts, and a frantic pace that keeps players on their toes. Naturally, I had to bring it to the guitar!
