That's funny. Plus, he'll sing "Love Me Tender" while kissing 90% of the women in the audience.

Paul could do it with And I love her...
He would go down and kiss kiss kiss and maybe say sometimes " that shinee... sorry, I'm not kissing you, hey I'm sorry!... dark is the skyyyy" And he could appear in one of those Elvis dresses...
I feel he's gonna do really something similar to what Elvis did, being the fan he is. As he did similar things in the MTV Unplugged compared to Elvis comeback informal part... and Glasgow was the "rehearsal concert" for this... "Glory, glory... hallejuuuhah..."

Well, no I think Paul will do Something in a different way than Elvis did.

Today, I recorded one of my favorite country hits, Eddie Rabbit's "Driving My Life Away." He wrote Elvis' "Kentucky Rain" and had plenty of country/pop hits in the '70s and '80s. I play all the instruments and did all the vocals: DRIVING MY LIFE AWAY: http://rapidshare.com/files/403152925/Audese_-_Drivin__My_Life_Away__FINAL_MIX_6-26-2010_.mp3.html Enjoy!

well... nothing much to say... Lately I've been singing a lot "Trouble" (perhaps because that scene with a little stage on a bar reminds me of the place...) in that special karaoke. I think this Sunday was the fourth and I wanted to change something (I wonder how Paul can feel after singing a song for the 200th time). So I kind of "acted" similar to Elvis, in a drunk, angry style, angrier than Elvis and less drunk
. That's not new for me... but in the end I remembered the shoulders movements in time with the music and I did the same. I didn't know how people were going to react to that.... but they liked that a lot.
Not that I liked it very very much but I think it's starts something about "certain movements" while singing for me.

You sang Trouble???????? I'm impressed! By the way: I suggested in the "Golden Earth Girl" thread that you and I should so that song. Wanna make me a piano track?
Also, do you use a metronome? I don't have one, but they can be quite helpful.

Great call on doing Golden Earth Girl Audi, I vote yay
and good call on the metronome.. it's got to be in time. slow and warm. like a sunrise.

Indeed! Ollie is a great pianist; maybe we'll have something for you before too long.

Cannot wait to hear that piano opening Ollie
and the broken chord acoustic guitar.. the wobbly recorder (or whatever that is
: ), the gentle horns, heavy 1 & 3 on the bass.. What a soundscape. Paul?s vocal is really gentle yet firm on it as well. The way he holds those notes at the end of phrases,and lets them taper off.. tough stuff. Good luck
I know its not professional or anything but you guys are setting the bar high with these choices! I like it. I was reading elsewhere that you were going to take on Coming Up.. man alive. Who and how are you going to accomplish that fast staccato horn or what ever that is? Is that tapping the keys on a synth really quickly? or is someone planning on breaking out a kazoo?
what instrument does Paul use there

So that IS a kazoo!!! Well... clears that up!

yes, I always sing "Trouble" now, (lately I've had other "permanent choices" like Bohemian Rhapsody, Hey Jude, Whole Lotta Love...). The thing is a great great song to sing cause there's lots of silences, I mean the singer is all alone without any background music and that's great. I kind of make it more Elvis-like than Elvis. I've just replied about GEG... so you want to sing it? okey... I want to sing it too
. Well, I've thought a way to do it and I guess you have thought another, so I think we just can do both. No, I've never used a metronome... the thing is play the piano 99% of the time as solo piano, improvising, composing, so there's no beat to follow, so I'm not used to that. I think the best metronome is to listen to the original while playing... I have a thing for changing the beats of music chords, kind of that syncopation about Elvis-singing, but in your version I'll make in time (I hope :lol
Now I'm not such a great pianist but I'll see what I can do. So we do 2 versions. And hello kapoo... the thing is we don't use to do songs just like recorded. I always like to change things, changing the vocals, the arrangements... If not I feel like I'm just copying and not creating a thing. I may be wrong but I use to think "hey that could be better this way" and maybe it's not neccesarily better but at least is not the same you have already heard... But I must admit sometimes I just copy... like in that part where Elvis sings "Glory glory hallejuhah..." cause I couldn't imagine a better way...

hey I'm definitely up for any rendition you guys want to put together. its such a tremendous song, it'll fly. I'm just a guy talkin over here
actually writing.. audi, at least thats what I was thinking.. sounds kazooish, right? (not kapooish, that's something different
) but it just sounds a little windy to me to be a sax or something. if it is a kazoo though, that's still tough to play
especially those like 20 note runs he does, that start low go high and come back down, you know what I'm saying? but then again you guys can probably pull it off.. seems quick to me.

the thing is coming up can be done in lots of ways, well, Paul has made it in lots of ways... Hey don't worry that keyboard part is not so complicate for me, I'm used for similar things. I'm not used for that things many classic piano players do of doing runs up and down the black notes... for instance. Probably cause I don't find a point in playing like that
I would like Paul to sing this someday, If not I guess I will sing it in the end.. That solo is similar to many Mozart melodies... the famous McCartney-Mozart connection. Sound familar?
-
This might be too out-of-left-field, but whenever I'm listening to the instrumental break in "Golden Earth Girl," I often find myself singing lines from "Wanderlust" over it. The part that goes: "Oh where did I go wrong, my love ... what pety crime was I found guilty of..." It fits well. I might try that.
-
Since you guys are discussing music (yes please do Golden Earth Girl!!!), I also got my guitar out this afternoon...
Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound....originally a Tom Paxton song, but Simon & Garfunkel covered it, and I like their version the most. And sorry, it's headless! -
I love, love, love, love the way you play guitar!

Why, is it that different from how others play the guitar?
