Where are we now?

I've always loved this song
Lots of Berlin references in this
I reside in Berlin, I think I've always liked this place

Anyway it#s rare that I cover
this was done by mixing a German choir with my voice

Feedback would be lovely


All the best. Rightly

It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

Don't eat the yellow snow

And there you have it.

Hey Rightly, loved it.  I'm a total Bowie nut, but it wasn't just that... I loved the way the voices escalated towards the end in particular.  Very original interpretation.  Can I ask how you made it... do you have a German choir lying around in your studio room?!  It certainly didn't sound like samples or special effects.
It's all too beautiful.

well, I asked
a choir my friend is involved with
to do one of my glorious productions

1st they were keen, then some started whining.
I started to lose interest, then they did this.

And I went about mixing it, as good as I could, practice don't cha know, n' all that.

well the same really resonates with me
the given lead vocals weren't getting me

so as an experiment
I dropped the volume in places

and put my own vocals in. 

I just thought it was fun and healthy variation on an album

I think it will surprise some listeners and they might find a way of giving my album a higher quality listen.
