Frost* Forum Collab Song - the Discussion thread (TDT!)

[E.S.]

I can sing.. sort of. I have a pretty high voice, my range isn't too far from Dec (although he sings higher notes a lot cleaner). But I haven't done lead vocals before, at least not for real. That will be done soon, I'm working on a cover of a prog epic by one of the finest bands from the USA. If it works at all, I'll share it with you here, and maybe I could be useful for something... who knows?

I don't like my own voice.  :cry:

[gr8gonzo]

I'm more of a baritone, better in the mid-lower registers. My tone falls in the Rick Springfield-David Cassidy-Lou Gramm-Barry Manilow area. I've always been more comfortable in a backing vocal role, but I've had a few outings singing lead. I'm willing to put up a sample or three. I love doing harmonies, anything from sporadic two-part (har!) to excessive Queen/Sweet/ELO-type stuff.

WOWWWW I only just stumbled upon this now! I'd love to get involved I'll have a cheeky, sneaky listen later on and see if i can hammer anything together for it. I'll sign myself up for vocals or guitarwork, but I fear several other frost*ies might be slightly more talented than I. Look forward to working with you all!

The Frost*wind?

For shame! This is Prog. Surely a double album plus dvd with 5.1 mix as a bare minimum?

and everyone better start to video themselves as they work...

..... We have vocalists among us don't we?!

[Raises hand] ..    ... lead or backing vocals primed and ready to go ! .. Though prog style lyrics would not be my forte.

[flamadiddle]

Tenor here.  Probably better for backing than lead.  It'd be a nice idea to get a load of people singing certain sections and layer them.  Then quality wouldn't matter as much as different character.

Pedro claims "stickies" aren't part of his "moderator toolkit". Shouldn't every musician carry duck tape (and condoms) with him as standard survival material?!  

So all musicians are male, are they? Huh.

(Har?)

[Pedro]

Oops.
While Cath's away the mice will commit political correctness crimes.
(Quick, tidy up!)
I could nip back and edit the gender-crime out but that would be dishonest.
So, all those in favour of female musicians carrying duck tape and condoms at all times?

[gr8gonzo]

Aye. Preferable to carrying ducks and condom tape.

[rogerg]

condom tape.

hey!  what a gre....  wait.  bad idea.

[owen]

Sex 'n' ducks 'n' rock 'n' roll?

[gr8gonzo]

condom tape.

hey!  what a gre....  wait.  bad idea.

Like I said.

No! I said him/her. See?!  :roll:

But seriously; I use the him/her phrase in all the discussion about the FFCS (except in this duck tape / condom comment....) . I'm waiting for some she-Frosts* to step in!

[gr8gonzo]

Frost*she?
