a tim burtony/weezeresque lovefest about... brains here for my pals on mefi first by the edison carter project

Another one off endlessly upcoming album-thing. Originally this had been intended to be a sort of sappy tune; it's still about something I said to one of my friends, which was "if we were just brains on a shelf, and the only thing we could do until we were dead was communicate telepathically, that would be ok". if we were two brains on a shelf and that's all we ever were i'd be next to her eternally right by my side it would be so divine fusing thoughts and no words after the gas severed at last under the glass a crackling sound and you'll never be down 'cause I'll always be around synchronized by EEG we vulcan mind meld instantaneously underneath the glass you'd find i'd have no teeth to grind since you'd ditch other guys we'd never have to dress or dine it would be so divine telepathically hers after the gas severed at last under the glass an electrified sound and you'll never be down 'cause I'll always be around synchronized by EEG we'd vulcan mind meld instantaneously i'll take your bad habits and sad faces and mad in inner space we just think of a place where nothing like that ever happens If you dug this, please tell yer buddies, dig up my other posts, 'become a fan', you know. Those things fans do. Also @ http://www.myspace.com/edisoncarter & http://www.edisoncarter.net

Neat.

I like the retro synth action a lot.

Well done. I wish your vocals came out a bit cleaner, though. I'm not very good at explaining these things, but it seems like you've doubled your voice there and it might be better without it.

Yeah me too. Unfortunately, it was in a wicked hard key for me, and so I needed the bolstering. I'm no master of vocal - recording clarity, tho, and for rock n roll, the clarity is not always as necessary (or wanted, depending on your skill and/or embarassing lyric content) ; )

Thanks tho!

"Two brains on a shelf", haha!

To your "Tim Burtony/Weezeresque" descriptor, I'd add "XTC-ish". Nice job, bitterkitten.

Also, I guess you noticed that your "body" idea was chosen for this month's WILDCARD Challenge. YAY!

Hey, way to go, bitterkitten! This is a good/fun song and I think your vocals ring true. Right on the money, bunny! I mean, kitten!
