this is mine & peppermints  entry in the pairs competition
it was cool working with peppermints  lyrics as they werent deep or complicated & had loads of rhymes which is what i like
even so ive moved them about a bit to make the song work but i dont think anythings been lost

so... me on guitar ...ally vocals...sarah bass..our band death by guitar &peppermint lyrics...TURN IT UP LOUD YOU WIMPS!

When We Were Young

Was it something i've said,
Was it something i've done,
Please tell me what i've done wrong,
Then i wouldn't of wrote this song.

When we were young,
We would spend each day in the morning sun,  
We played games that were really fun,        
Until the day you went away.

And i'm sorry,
If my words caused you any pain,
I'll write them all down,
And then perish them in flames.

And whenever i felt alone,
I would call you on your telephone,
Or go around to your home,
When i had no where else to roam.

And i'm sorry,
If my words caused you any pain,
I'll write them all down,
And then perish them in flames.

hey Peppermint T !
excellent vocal, one of ali’s best, stands out,
really punchy track & lyric works fine
like the spoken parts a surprise and then its gone..you just keep things happening..
love that wicked growl on your gtr  ..like steve vai in that crossroads movie..
nooms

[nooms]

and sounds amazing in headphones ! great drums, and more gtr parts ! like it more i play it
well done ladys

[The Corsair]

Dat bass...

This is wonderful, I think the rest of us have our work cut out for us...

[Peppermint]

I really like it  

[flossie]

This is brilliant, it's so hooky it's ridiculous - the bar has been set

It's a perfect song in my opinion (and that is unbiased too!)

[Kafla]

Tina,

I really can't criticise this - perfect playing , recording and a lovely hooky song.

Just awesome 

[Dutchbeat]

Yes,that is serious, serious competition
cannot believe how good the drums sound, that snare sound is so extremely to-the -point that it hurts

guitar is rocking as always, vocals are super, and yes...

....this may have been mentioned by others but the song has great hooks and angles that i can't get out of my mind after one listen

arrh back to the studio.......

[tina m]

oooo thanks! glad you all like it  
ive finally been able to start using my whammy bar again....i found it in the shed my youngest had been using it to clean dog poo out of his trainers!!  little darling!

 im sure somebdy will come along soon & say it sounds just like evrything else ive done... well if it does i dont care this is how i want to sound!

[cheff daniel]

fantastic track tina. and you're right this sounds like you.




gr.   Dan

[Dutchbeat]

it is true, you do sound very much like YOU,

and almost ecxatly like Death by Guitar! come to think of it...

and that is super!!!!!!!!!!!

but,
what is your whammy bar?...
hang on
perhaps better not explain...you know,

we have moderators looking over our shoulders....nowadays..



 

[tina m]

are you serious dutchbeat you dont know what a  guitar whammy bar is ?
they are also called tremolo arms & when you press it it changes the pitch... mines a little rod that fixes on to my guitar bridge & i can take it off & unfortunately little people think its good for all  sorts of other jobs so it disappeared months ago

get one on your keyboard... rods are more exciting than knobs!!

[Dutchbeat]

ha,
that is a whammy bar!

Dutchbeat has that
I have a pitch bend with a handle (!)
ánd a modulation /tremelo wheel just beside it (apart from the knobs)

you really should try that, Tinam 

[Dutchbeat]

luckily, the moderators have no clue what we are talking about

sst, let them sleep...

[tina m]

I have a pitch bend with a handle (!)

thats obviously the difference between men & women
