Awesome! I've been dragging my feet in my plans to form a band. It's something I'd like to do for at least a year -- while I'm still (relatively) young and pretty.
More importantly, I hope I have enough talent for it. Good luck, Ollie. Your band -- er, YOU'RE gonna need it. Kidding!
I don't get the joke
I really don't get it
You don't get the joke - this means YOU'RE BANNED!!!
I still don't get it. You must remember my English is not very good. Especially for jokes.
I don't have any street talk experience...
"we alll came out to Montreaaaux...."
Audi said you're going to need luck with your band. THAT is the joke, Oliver!
He said he was kidding, he didn't really mean that you need any luck.
ok, I didn't get it, I thought he meant "you're gonna really need your band" or so...
Looks like a few of us need a course in Comedy 101.1 : The implication of my joke was that the band would need the luck.
Geez... if ya' have to explain it...
Maybe I'm starting to get it.
Hey it's hard to get jokes in your third language.
hmmm... they would need the luck if I sang. Then they'll have to deal with my... divo attitudes, you know.
I would only sing the way I want to sing and etc. But as only a keyboard player I'm not hard to get along. I know from experience.
Uh-oh! You're a diva, too? Look out, Elton John!
hmm... no! divo not diva
. I mean the attitude... well, my fav band is Queen (after The Beatles). The most divo-attitude band ever.
"We're the fussiest band in the world, we can be a real pain in the ass" Freddie Mercury. Well, they crowned themselves.
I still don't know who I "accepted" to sing some song mimicking (you know what song, the one on work) Paul's way
Once a year is not bad they say... but you won't get me to sing a song mimicking Johnny Cash
-
well (or should I say weeeeelll)... a week ago I was doubting which song to cover: Unchained Melody, Blue Moon of Kentucky or Whattaya Want from Me. So in the end I've done them all, more experience to me. I've done keyboards and vocals for each and what there's left now is to finish the cooking or should I say set the table. Equalize, mix, and upload it to youtube as I do lately. Blue Moon Of Kentucky: Elvis did it fast, Paul did it slow and fast, I decided to add a slower part at the beginning, sort of gospel like. Unchained Melody: Quite similar to the Righteous version only slower and with simple synth strings. Whattaya Want From Me: only with piano at the background, I change the end a bit, cause I don't like to do harmonies to myself. I get a little mad at the end, but not more than Adam Lambert. Same key than the original versions, so I don't have to think about which key to use...

here they are, going back to my roots about sound... no vocal compression and no reverb except for a little reverb in Blue Moon Of Kentucky, simply equalized. [Blue Moon Of Kentucky[/color">](

well, since you're an Elvis fan you could skip till 1.20 in Blue Moon Of Kentucky cause that's where the Elvis part begins. so -25 is only the start!
well, it's Christmastime pretty baby and the snow is falling on the ground... Elvis

Although he struggled to recall the lyrics, I love this "down n' dirty" version. Love it!

It's the version I like, I felt disapointed when listening to the original, If I ever do it would be in the spirit of the 1968 live version...

I'm planning to record my own version, based on the '57 version very soon.

live versions from the "original artists" of my versions... UM Elvis live, last song he sung
This actually was neither the last song nor the last concert he gave. This was from his last tour, however. The last concert-date (Indianapolis) of that tour was not recorded for the 1977 CBS special. Too bad -- because it was the best show by far. That "Unchained Melody" performace is from Grand Rapids, Michigan, which was a day or two prior to the last concert Elvis ever gave.

the 1968 version is maybe too dirty to be recorded
Maybe with Blue Christmas as B-Side...

then I guess it's a false Elvis myth (like hundreds of false Beatle myths..), I always thought that was the last show and that was the last song.

So, B: Is that WikiLeaks founder hiding out at your place? Supposedly, he was in Sweden at one point.

I know that my comment should be Lennon-focused, however I can't get over how newly developed your voice sounds! Have you been doing new vocal exercises?
