First exposure to Roca Rourin here and my god it’s a breath of fresh air hearing an English Rock cover out of an ENVtuber for once. As a guy whose only Eastern exposure is to vtubers, this is a surprise, and it’s an awesome cover of something right in my childhood too (GH3 DLC)

I'm so glad that-even after being hesitant about this-you still put it out! Dave Grohl's voice is incredibly versatile and definitely a tough one to beat, but yours was absolutely up for the task It's actually insane how you can fit your voice into any genre and make it sound so natural. That perfect growl at the end was just the cherry on top of an amazing cover

I just like lyrics all in front of me: Keep you in the dark You know they all pretend Keep you in the dark And so it all began Send in your skeletons Sing as their bones go marching in, again The need you buried deep The secrets that you keep are ever ready Are you ready? I'm finished making sense Done pleading ignorance That whole defense Spinning infinity, boy The wheel is spinning me It's never-ending, never-ending Same old story What if I say I'm not like the others?

What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? I'm the voice inside your head You refuse to hear Yeah, I'm the face that you have to face Mirrored in your stare I'm what's left, I'm what's right I'm the enemy I'm the hand that will take you down Bring you to your knees So who are you?

@@skullcolectolector I can't think of a single member of Hololive EN having a permanently posted cover of an American/English language artist's song, feel free to prove me wrong to but they only do that in unarchived karaoke as far as I'm aware because western record companies are copyright vultures. Actually now that I think about vtuber in general, Amano Serafi now has western song karaoke that stays up, I don't know if she or her agency goes through more effort to get permissions from the Copyright holders that HL doesn't or what.

And live gigs with her avatar are also possible. I'm fully aware that Idol is by no means a big company like for example Cover. But there surely is a way to project her on a stage (if it's only 2D screen, so be it) and have her perform even in a small venue - preferably with a real band.
