Bloody hell. Those three versions are stunning. I will be staying tuned for more about them.

Bass and lead vocals is reckoned to be a tough one to pull off and give it your all to both, isn't it, more than guitar+vocals? I speak as someone who knows nothing about the technicalities of music-making.

They certainly seem to have made the right move by freeing Melody up just to do her thing fronting the band, though she was doing an astounding job while playing bass as well.

In the Sandman clip I was thinking to myself, 'What's it going to sound like when the vocals kick in? Which of them is going to take the lead?' (I hadn't properly read the details - sorry, Charles!) And it was quite something. 15 years old!

I am hugely impressed. Thank you very much for your A&R work in bringing us this stuff, Charles!
