Nice lyrics! I know you say this is just a rough cut, but could I
have the vocal track as it is anyway? I can start piecing things
together maybe at the weekend and get something sorted with guitars
and vocals in the mix from the original - which should sound better
than just everlaying them because I can make room for them properly.
Good job! I think these will fit well with the Christian's guitar
part.
I wish I had time to do this today, but I really don't.
Thanks,
James

this is just a *very* rough copy of what i hear for this track ...
haven't had *any* time to polish it or learn how to sing it properly:
hence, some of the more, er, "intense' parts may sound a little
strained, etc ... but i wanted to throw this up so others could give me
feedback, or if they wanted to do backing tracks, or even sing it
themselves ... On Tue, Jul 12, 2005 at 01:17:42PM +0100,

Bloody hell!
That sounds amazing! It's not what I was expecting at all, but I'm
very very excited about it.
Do you have the guitar parts recorded separately? I'll put them in
with the rest of the stuff, get the levels right and shufty things
around so that they get the space they need in places.
I love where this is going.
I wonder what Shayne's been up to?

That's great. I very nearly wrote about what kind of thing I'm
looking for in the original mail, but then decided not to. If I
specified the kind of sound I'm after, it would influence people and
give us less room to explore.
I'll share later, of course and maybe what I'm expecting and what you
intend to do will match up. Either way, it should be fun.
Ok, see what I came up with on
http://maitre.physik.uni-kl.de/~schumann/sv_WIP_guitar.ogg
I have to apologize first for the bad timing, but it's been late at
night, after a hard work in the lab.
This is just some ideas I had, I don't know if this is what you
expected. Now that Shayne wrote that he might have some lyrics for that,
I would give it another try after I have something with vocals.
I was kind of unsure whether to do some more clean comping with delay,
or more of a full-on distorted rock guitar. So tell me what you think.
Christian here are the lyrics:
Even though we had to wait,
the shadows were receding
along the shorelines of Fate.
You turned just to say that you hate me.
ooh ooh ooh hey hoo
Last time we attempted to leave,
the tide had been stronger
and the river was no longer
than our love.
Even though our lips are sown
Our bodies keep breathing,
We keep leaking, from our bones,
Centuries of Meaning.
So much longer now
So much longer now
this is fun!
