It's rare these days that I'll record an actual song with vocals, much less a cover . . . but this Bowie tune has been haunting me for weeks so I just had to let it out . . . enjoy the ghoulish Bowie/Eno vocals and Frippy guitar, all produced by Trent (in my dreams!)

**Go to my www. link at the bottom to listen

Followed the link ... did not find the music?

Same here, I saw the pile of music at the bottom left side but which is the tune?

Gee, I hope you are easier to communicate with the next time you round this galaxy..lol

OK ... that's much easier ... listening now, thanks.

Way too slow to evolve, nothing till 2:10ish.

Sounds like Billy Idol drunk vocals covering Bowie.

I'd cut some of the intro, it's just too long.
I'd also want to speed the whole thing up some else it just doesn't feel ???

Nice effects, overall composition needs work.

Thanks Chief! I did leave out the chorus which is the Hook too!

I can speed it up and check it out! Maybe I better stick to esoteric noodlings!!

Etu, don't take it the wrong way..

It sounds good and the changes I suggest are merely personal.

Hella better than some we hear on here....do whatever you feel good with !!!!

Give us some more.

No way, there are quite a few members here that I respect their opinion . . . thanks!

Dude! Awsome job! I mean what an amazing Concept of production...
Okay I'm jazzed...

1) You have GOT to bring forward the voice tracks (Left and right/... Keep them panned like you did, but they gotta be out front.

Love the rythyms with the deep Toms/bass you threw in there.

The song is about endless , unrequieted, unchangeble burning passion...The VOCALS gotta get out there to get that across. Currently they got buried...Unbury them and let that fire out!

Much Better on The Vocals... Maybe drop back a little on the gate/delay I like the L & R swapping. and the guitar work.. Excellent rendition!

ETU, give up the covers and write your music.
You got enough to spit it out.

1) Vocals not crisp enough/too slow for me imo.
2) Guitar track very entertaining, but emphasize Bb even on the solo.

Harder/more on the Bb will fill this out to feel much fuller/heavy feel.

Ach my ears are messing with me.. I might be talking a Cm, I need to see the tab to be sure.. sorry if i am mistaken.

ETU if you have a paying membership, write me mail via the regular system.

I get the minty sensation that we might be able to work together a bit here in the future...
