MindWanderer Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Some lyrics that make more sense and more closely match what I'm hearing: http://forums.sonicretro.org/index.php?showtopic=32133&st=180&p=768141entry768141 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I can't say I had gotten around to listening to Hard Times yet, but I just have, and damn, it really does sound like Ice Cap Zone. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troyificus Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Question: If we do create our own lyrics do we need to supply them along with our entry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillRock Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 Question: If we do create our own lyrics do we need to supply them along with our entry? Anterroir didn't. I don't think it can hurt to tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anterroir Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Anterroir didn't. I don't think it can hurt to tho To be exact - they aren't my lyrics - they belong to Tony Banks / Phil Collins / Mike Rutherford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nase Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Ah, round 2. couldn't really get into the first track i'm afraid. Will listen later. I'm sure it's happening anyway, but i'm rooting for some classic (hard) rock/blues in the future! Something that's easy to go wild over and just have fun with. You know, the kind of songs that make it easier to mask technical imperfection with display of energy, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Strader Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Sunny days! It feels so warm! Sunny days are great! Oh man I'm not even going to bother writing lyrics, I'll just use the original ones. I could get creative but I can guarantee anything I would write would be so much more cheesy than the original lyrics just because it feels engineered to be that way. x_x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Strader Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Well it's hard to say. It's probably my own inadequacy as a lyricist anyway, or some psychological issue with the source tune that would prevent me from writing something touching and substantial.

kitty Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 So my mic in is picking up a fair amount of static. Gonna have some trouble cleaning that up but hopefully I'll get it done in time to submit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xarnax42 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 So my mic in is picking up a fair amount of static. Gonna have some trouble cleaning that up but hopefully I'll get it done in time to submit. This could be any number of things, but there is a lot of troubleshooting help available. When it was happening to me, it was a fairly obscure problem with a simple fix: disable your wireless adapter. If that's not it, good luck!

Brandon Strader Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I just turned in mine. I recorded the main vocal line twice exactly the same so that it'd have that neat doubled sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troyificus Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I *may* require a small extension on this if possible, I don't think I'll be able to record until Wednesday evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
