My Dad and me are both huge fans of Bill Nelson and Be Bop Deluxe, so as a gift, a friend and I decided to create this cover version for him.
It's all re-created from the ground up.
Thought you guys might enjoy it, would mean the world if it made it all the way to the man himself.
Merry Christmas and best wishes everyone.

I listened a few more times 😃. Bravo! So new and fresh. It's a pleasure to hear this song continue to your generation.
Great job. Didn't know what to expect, but I got the gooseflesh. Thumbs up.
Like it. Keep the faith.
That is a very fine interpretation of a classic Be Bop Deluxe song! Really enjoyed your vocals. Merry Christmas!
Well done from me as well - if I was your dad I'd be very proud, and consider my job of being a great dad well done!
Well done, nice version and well played.
Great version - after 45 years, it could still be a modern rock hit!!!
Yeah, keep that one.
Very Nice !!! Way to hold that vocal note at the end. Well Done !!!
Wow! Quite Nice!*****
I like it.....I like it because it's not a slavish copy..your interpretation is fresh and original and therefor you have 'made it your own', added your identity, whilst it still obviously being 'Maid In Heaven'...Great job with the vocals, especially the little twist at the end.
Made In Heaven should have definitely been a No1 hit single for Be Bop Deluxe, a song which many agree, me included, is the perfect pop song (as close as you can get, anyway).
BTW, this was released 45 years ago, this year...I can remember buying it as a 15 year old and being sooooooo excited...and Bill's music still gives me that same buzz all these years later.
Miss buying 7inch singles though...a bit of magic that was, along with Sounds and NME.
Superb effort. Well done.
Excellent
That tune's got a lot of life in it still – great job!
Brilliant ❤
