Title: Song by a friend
Post by: Walrusbonzo on April 30, 2006, 00:01:46 AM
Some of you may remember the American girl I once met in the laundrette, she was one of Engelbert Humperdincks backing singers.

She recently sent me a demo one of her songs, if you like country music(Cl0ckd 0ne) a bit like Faith Hill/Shania Twain then you may like this.

Personally, I think its brilliant.

On playing it back I realise I must have been a bit slow alt-tabbing into WMP because its closer to 0.55...but its where she sings "the way we were before" in that slightly higher pitch...it just seems like it has so much clarity and power...really makes you think "yeah....yeah, this is good!"

Perhapos, actually I think the drum roll might be more eastenders...

Obviously red has a bee in his bonnet over something.

I wasnt commenting on if you liked it or not, I was making a comment that its often worth listening twice just to make sure you like, or dislike something.

Was chatting to her last night, sent her over to this forum and this thread as she didnt believe people liked it.  It wasnt a final vocal at all....

Anyway, she didnt quite answer my question about doing an album, but she did mention setting up a myspace site and putting her songs on there for you lot to listen to :)

Shes got a real talent, tell her to get a Myspace set up; thats how word spreads. If its good enough for the Arctic Monkeys its good enough for her  ;)
