Hey Shannon! Been a while since we last spoke.

So I finally finished recordning "Morning Run."
http://airbagtester.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/sdecourcey-airbagtester-...

It ended up being a pretty rocking tune IMO! If you like it (you don't have to...) maybe you can add me as a collaborator and link to the demo above? I'm still nowhere close to 50 songs though...

Shannon, the demo for Summertime Was Better is up. I did change the yabbies line for the sake of us uncultured Americans (kidding).

Shannon, yabbies are like 'backyard prawns', you used to be able to catch them in creeks and mudflats. It was heaps of fun, even better than searching for tadpoles!

I am from Australia, so your accent is lovely and strong to me!

I would love to work with you again and would like to swap details if that's okay. My email address is starsinmyeyes@inbox.com

Hi Shannon, I am so pleased with your magical treatment of Almost East. And I LOVE your accent, it really helps make the song sound even more 'Touristy' - that's Gold! Thank you for allowing me to be able to sing it to your lovely tune!

I am also grateful for your enthusiasm for the lyric and that you have marked the song as one of your favourites - that is way cool!

A HUGE THANK YOU ALL ROUND!!!

Thanks :) I've got it all worked out, i'll send you a demo tomorrow and then I should be getting my decent mic back at the weekend so I can record properly then.

Hey, I commented on the song but I don't know if you've seen it, is it alright for me to record some music for Beautiful Mistakes?

Thanks for your kind words on 'Rain'. I haven't really tried writing a song with all verses before, so it was a fun try after listening to some great music. Much appreciated!

No problem. I would have kept my comments on Walking Away from Summer to the "good job" variety but for the fact that the part of the song I pointed out is really special. (On another note, that Stokowski quote is great. I have a large collection of Stoki recordings amassed a couple of decades ago; his Bach transcriptions turned me on to classical stuff. I don't think I am supposed to admit that I like those; a classical sin akin to preferring Twinkies or Oreos to, well, food.) :)

I came up with something for your song 16, if you want to check it out.......

I'm really glad you liked the way "Home Is Love" came out. Funny about our chorus ideas being similar-the music for that section came to me instantly. Maybe we can do it again, sometime.

I'm glad you liked the name of my song, and I apologise for the lack of lyrics. At the moment I am a little too busy to be able to type the songs up onto the computer, but if I do ever manage to get the lyrics up I will let you know! Thanks and please do check out my other songs!

I've got "Home Is Love" up. I hope you like it.

Hey, thanks for adding me to the song. I've been working on it-tried to make a demo the other day, but I made a mistake and need to redo it. If all works out, I should be recording it later on today.

Thanks for the comment! I agree. French is pretty. And I don't speak it. Or Spanish. And if I remember correctly, just about all the French means the same as what I say in English. Which is weird, because I started in French, using what little French I know.

They seem to be working for me, though they're taking a bit of time to load. Not sure if that's because of my link, or because my internet's slow. I'll try to figure it out.
