" I figured out (eventually) that that's what you meant, and in fact I tried that first. But there's still some lead vocal in the other channel (if not much) and some guitar and drums in the first, so it didnt really sound right. And I'm a decent enough musician, so I was able to replicate it pretty closely from scratch. Hardest part was all those background oo's. They're pretty much constant and sometimes pretty low, so it took me a while to figure out just what all 3 parts were doing. "But redoing it, and doing such a good job, even better!!)" Thanks!

I have enough hits already I think some of you must have, but let's try to get this from the hundreds to the thousands. You tell two friends, then they'll tell two friends..,

Originally Posted By Dabob2 "Personal question which, of course, you should feel free to ignore. Are you a professional musician? Just curious, as this really is an excellent performance." I don't make my living at it, but I do gig with my band, and solo. I'm primarily a somgWRITER, and I have various indie cuts, TV/Film placements (eg an upcoming True Blood, though they haven't told me the air date); still waiting for the elusive major artist cut. It's a ridiculous business, but a writer writes-- that's what I do.

Originally Posted By Dabob2 "Dabob, shut up!!!!!" Okay. {skulks away} Seriously, I'll let you know when I know. Was at nearly 4,000 views for Michele this morning, so people seem to be spreading it out. Great job - keep it going!
Originally Posted By CuriousConstance By the way, Dabob. Forget my subtitle comment, I can hear it MUCH better on my laptop. My darn computer speakers on my desktop must be shot, lol. The more I watch it the better it gets. It's hilarious! You're version of the song is addicting too. Very good voice.
