Tweedaa Music Permission

So far in regards to planning our project we have focused primarily on rock music, since me, Katie and Barry have all done our research in regards to rock music it meant that we began searching the internet drastically for cover songs of artists that we enjoy personally, after scanning the website YouTube we found a couple of cover songs that caught our eye, we knew it would be unlikely that if we emailed an actual professional band such as Muse or Linkin Park then there would most likely be no response whatsoever and if there were to be a response then it would most likely be no which would mean we would put all our time and effort into planning a video for a song we would not have permission to use. I myself therefore decided to email a couple of artists with covers of songs that we like; so far we have had the positive response from “Tweedaa” (YouTube username being “Tweedaamusic) that we can use his music, his music includes many cover songs such as a punk rock version of Wonderwall as well as another song which I personally feel is better than the original which is The One, a song originally performed by Limp Bizkit. Due to almost every typical rock song featuring a live performance I feel it is very important for this to be done within our video. The feeling of isolation and rebellion of young people I think would be a good choice of theme for us to use, this would have to be orchestrated by a narrative with support from a live performance. Some examples of Tweeda’s covers can be seen below.
