Calum Carlyle

Thanks for the link, Calum, I plan on using the 'sounds of silence" to chill out after a long today i know i'll be having...

Hi Calum, wanted to say thanks very much for commenting on my song "crackin". Really appreciated. I was reading your comments in the forum about pseudonym names so actually laughed when I saw your comment on "crackin" cause there was roddy commenting above you and agreeing with "callum's comments" - classic! Hope the tours goin well :0)

Hi Calum, thanks for the good comments. You can now click directly on the songs I just posted using the address under the demo tag. Your automatically connected to the player of that song. I like your epic. Silence is golden to many I guess.

Heh, pretty funny comment Calum, but spot on too. Thanks man. the Knack, Devo, Talking Heads, Bowie, and Rocky Horror all influenced that song for sure. Good ears.

Hey.

I definitely wasn't "mad at you" for being able to do multi-track demos - jealous if anything, and probably wishing you lived closer so I could stalk you til you teach me how to do it :D
more than anything I am frustrated because I have literally 7 songs sitting here, and literally NO WAY to record ANYTHING. I had borrowed a video camera off someone else (in order to do an international audition for a dance school back in NZ), so that is my ONLY option is I want to record anything, and I hate that, because I feel like it's not good enough to just do a live recording of me and my guitar. But it's not even my video camera, and I only have it because I'm too broke to get on the tube and get it back to the person I borrowed it off.

I think your post only made me mad cos it made it sound like people would do video tracks on purpose, rather than doing mp3s. The videos I've seen have mostly been because people didn't have a choice. During FAWM, all I had to record was a webcam (it's broken now too), so I turned the video off and used that - but it still came up with a picture, and I have no idea how you'd go about extracting the mp3 from it or anything! I've seen two videos from one person that weren't just them sitting there singing, and in that case I'm fairly certain that they'd put a pretty picture behind the mp3 so that they could use Youtube as a free file-hosting service.

And again, I really only got mad cos I am so limited in options right now!
Plus I'm way over-eager about everything, and sound like I'm really mad when I'm just a little bit upset by most people's standards. "Passionate" is the nice way of putting it :P

Anyway, I hope I didn't upset you, and I hope I didn't scare you away from using the forums, or even just that thread. You do bring valid points to the table, that are definitely worth discussing.

Amy :)

Wow oh wow, I never knew I could sound like that!!!

Hi Calum, cheers for msg, i think it was 2004 the last time I played OOTB so no, youve prob not seen me around there lately!!! lol, but hopefully after the summer will be going along and booking a slot. Have now managed to get my first song up after 3 computers dying on me within 3 weeks! Crackin on now though :o)

hi Kim, was just chuckling at your slight slip in the Mornington Crescent thread, still, i don't think anybody's going to be able to trace you by just that bit of info.

Heh. It was the #970 bus thing that gives me away. If you compare that route to, say, #971 you can track me down to within a couple of streets. I'm not losing any sleep over that, though. ;)

By the way, i used to live in Kogarah and had a dentist in Rockdale Plaza, and i'm always finding that the world is smaller than i think it is!

I know Kogarah well. I went to the TAFE there, back in the day. I drive through Rockdale every week on my way to and from band practice. I quite often stop at the Rockdale KFC on the way home. Practicing makes me hungry.

Thanks for the "Keep Your Shoes On" remarks Calum! Had I had more time harmonizing touches is the first thing I would have done, so I guess great minds think alike! Glad to hear my performance was so pleasing to your ear, as was yours to mine.

Just added you as Facebook friend (I'm already a fan on your FB music page). I want to see/hear the festival performance!

Hi Calum. Thank you so much for your beautiful comment on my A Sappella Challenge "singing". So amazing to hear "cool"! Thank you, you are very kind :)

Hi Calum! Thanks so much for your kind comments on my collab demo with LPK's "I give to you today" - glad you enjoyed it in its simplicity. Took a trip over to Wikipedia to understand "Horlicks" - so now I not only know what to order in the cafe', but I have a substitute swear word to use in polite UK company, I guess?

Glad to see you on here again, Calum. Always look forward to hearing your new stuff.

Thank you for listening and commenting on "Carefree day" Calum. So glad you like it :)

Thanks for listening - took your advice and rechristened the song Feel(Through the soles of your feet). Anyway - today is my day off from worrying about global warming so I'm not going to think too much about the apocalyptic songwriting geneology in your family.

Hey Calum,
Just saw your note on Full Many A Flower. I'd be happy to have you try it.
I'm pretty much "puter illiterate". I'll try to get it done right this time.
Thanks H H for clueing me in to Calum's style.
And thanks Donna for clueing me in to FAWM in the first place

This is a "great" place. I'm having a ball and writin' up a storm :)

I haven't seen to many Celtic artists. I try to write some Celtic lyrics time to time, though I only have Celtic ancestry, (Welsh).
Anyway, I've got a lyric up that might fit in Celtic, "Full Many A Flower"
If you get time I'd appreciate your opinion on it
Thanks
(Of course if you "hear" anything for it, a collab is open)

Hey I saw that you wanted to put some music to (What If) I Said That I Loved You. About the style, I pictured it sort of as a ballad, but with a bit of a rock bite. Although I'm sure that whatever you come up with will be great.

Hi Calum, good to see here again!

Hi! thanks for your lovely comment on "so alone" - I wrote and recorded it in about 12 minutes after a crying jag at 2:30 in the morning (as evidenced by the sniffle halfway through) so that it sounds rough is probably the point. I considered re-recording it yesterday, then decided that I liked it that way.
:)

Hey, Calum. Thanks for the song comment on "Over Jordan." It's fine by me if you want to do your own version of it, but I would suggest that you not listen to my demo first. Make it your own, if you like. You'd probably do better than me.

Dude, totally excited to see you here and looking forward to hearing more of your work!

hi- great to see you here!

hey Calum! tour of scotland sounds very exciting! looking forward to whatever you come up with this summer.

Hi Calum, excited by 5090 and this spiffy new website. Hope you are well and have music leaking out of your brain for us all to enjoy!
