Repeat After Me
First new song for a while. I've been sitting on this for a ages and finally got around to remixing recently.
Basically, over the last few months I've upgraded my kit a bit, so I now have some desktop monitors and a natty set of Sennheisser headphones to mix on. The other big change is that I've finally got a (half) decent mic which has helped me improve the quality of my vocals (which, ironically, are distorted slightly on this track!!!) but you should get some idea from the backing vocals - which I'm pretty happy with. Incidentally, I used the vocal transformer on the b.vox to give me a guide how to sing 'up a 4th'. I then went back and sang the lines live - and am really happy with the result.
I've never considered myself much of a guitarist, but I'm pretty happy with some of the bits in here - although I'm still struggling to get a half decent acoustic guitar sound - maybe I Just need a new guitar???? Any excuse!
Enjoy the track and let me know what you think. As always, if anyone fancies having a go at remixing this then let me know.
Cheers,
Phil

Lyrics
Repeat After Me
You could be the one
You could be the chosen one
You could bend the rules
You could play the genius or fool
You could be the Time Magazine man of the year
The smoke that keeps the mirror clear
This could be the time
When you change the ridicule to sublime
And write another line
Where all the narratives intertwine
This could be you nomination for the Man Booker Prize
The ghost who hides behind closed eyes
(chorus)
‘Cos I don’t admit to much you see
When I think you’ve got a problem with me
So I’m trying to act diplomatically
Repeat – please repeat after me
So I could be the truth
Now, how might that fit in with what you do?
Isn’t it just great
Listing all the things you like to hate
You could be a reconstituted Silvia Saint
As you try to make it straight……
You could be the one
You could be the chosen one
You could bend the rules
You could play the genius or fool
You could be the Time Magazine man of the year
The smoke that keeps the mirror clear
This could be the time
When you change the ridicule to sublime
And write another line
Where all the narratives intertwine
This could be you nomination for the Man Booker Prize
The ghost who hides behind closed eyes
(chorus)
‘Cos I don’t admit to much you see
When I think you’ve got a problem with me
So I’m trying to act diplomatically
Repeat – please repeat after me
So I could be the truth
Now, how might that fit in with what you do?
Isn’t it just great
Listing all the things you like to hate
You could be a reconstituted Silvia Saint
As you try to make it straight……
