One more request for my song, if anyone has it. Should I spoil it and save people having to look it up?
No, don't do that: post the time when it's drawn out the hat on the video and we can have a look.

i do have Going to Some Damned English City floating around on its own, but not in the context of the (Radio?) Show it was played in..

Definitely one of my personal favourites.


That's the one, sorry, been away from the comp but it's the one I was going to post as well.

Found out which song I've been assigned, panicked that I've never heard it and may not be able to find a recording, then decided it was way more exciting not to listen to it at all but just take a look at the lyrics and write my own thing.

Yeah, nall's site has no shows listed where it was from and I can't find one myself either. You may just have to take the lyrics and wing it! But that might even be better.

i am curious what betamax's song is. if you guys can't find it on nall's site, is it such a big secret to say what it is?


i just sit here in my cave and absorb your facts and figures.

It's esgnat's song. I can find the song itself, I said there's no shows listed where it was played. It exists, unreleased and apparently not in any recorded form that we could help esgnat with. I'm kind of excited for ones like that actually, so let's NOT spoil them.

if i got a song that wasn't released i'd probably just read the lyrics monotonously into the mic. but yeah, good luck to those people, i do not envy you.

oh i just assumed they did. if not then i'd just recite the title of the song monotonously into the mic for a minute and forty-five seconds.

On the WNUR note: I like that version of Alpha Omega! My previous version of choice was and has been the KEXP 2006 version, which is much quieter, and the mood is very different. But this one is pretty cool in a different way.

I have to say, I am now rather excited about this after finding that I have more than a month to work on it. I was scared I wouldn't have time to set it up right. Just got a couple new (cheap) things for my little home studio. I've also been deciding how I want to play my song. This year, I've been assigned a strikingly personal song though I didn't realize that fact until I learned it. And I'm trying to get Cecilia to sing with me again. This time we'll have my tube condenser and she's going to sound like the shit.

bump.




so, where are we at song wise? Anyone finished? Anyone feel they will need to drop out? I'm currently working on the album artwork and want to get a feel for the amount of songs we'll be dealing with.

I'm messing around with a number of versions... i've gone through genteel fingerpicking, bossa-nova, jazz/blues (seventh chords mainly) and a copy of the original shoutier version.

I have no idea which i'm going with! I feel like if i try to add something to it, or change it, it's making it worse and i should just cover it as close as damn it, but then again i want to make it different, you know? So, to answer your question.. i'm still in, but i'm not finished.

I wonder if i could do a DADGAD version.

Hmmm.

I'll let you know next year!

It may be a slow process, what with there being no chords/tabs about the place, and my mouth full of screamingly painful ulcers (attractive). Not dropping out, mind. Should have it done not too long into the new year.

Jonty you send me an email I may be able to help you tab out some chords.

I don't remember what your song is, but I'll try!
As for me I haven't started yet, if I finish my current project before sunday, which is when this sweet fourtracker has to go back to an ex, I'll do my song on there. If not, it'll still be good and done probably by the tenth.

I've done a little bit of work (basically just decided on a chord sctructure/vocal melody). It'll be a while until I have time to actually record it, but I'll definitely turn something in eventually.

My first priority is my long overdue second Simon Joyner cover. After that, I'm recording this one, but I think I've got my attack all nailed down for it.
