“As with the previous EP from the album Skull, I wanted again to include some cover songs on it to make it an interesting little EP album instead being just a single” says Dave. “Plus they are all my personal favorite songs which I want the world to hear. Yet, I wanted to give some of them a special “like never before” kind of arrangement. As always with cover songs, you must have some special point to record them.”
The title track “Fantasy Living Boy” features backing vocals by Kristiina Vaara, the lead singer of the Finnish alternative rock band Lasten Hautausmaa. “Way Down In Old Swanee” is Dave’s own kind of rocking version of the old traditional song “Swanee River”. Dave’s rendition of the raw traditional blues “Sittin’ On Top Of The World” is a tender ballad and the backing vocals by Mira Sunnari will give it an extra gospel flavor. “You Can’t Fool The Fat Man” is a song written by the legendary American songwriter Randy Newman and “My Bonnie” is originally an old Irish folk song. Dave gives it a special soulful treatment and takes it far from its roots.
