Title: You Don't Understand Me - a new song
Post by: MarioD on September 29, 2009, 06:06:21 PM
“You Don’t Understand Me” is a new song by Pumping Station Road.  Bob is doing the Mr. Slowhand impersonation, Steve is singing lead, Danny has the last guitar solo and I’m on everything else.

Let us know what you think.

Good work, Mario, by all concerned. Your usual excellent production.

Somehow the song lacks the life and energy of the band's other material. It could be the singer's presentation, or perhaps the tempo is a bit slow... it's hard to nail down, exactly. Perhaps some punchy percussion would add a little structure and definition...?

TBH not my favourite.... your lead singer doesn't sound as he is at ease with the key, actually in some spots it's really on the edge.

Is that you playing the USB EWI ?

Oren and Kara thanx for listening and the comments.  I sent this one up knowing that we were not satisfied with the song but we couldn’t pin point exactly what the problem was.  Comments and suggestions like yours will go a long way in helping as sometimes you just need a fresh set of ears to pick up stuff we overlook.

Yes Kara that’s me on the USB EWI.

I agree..

..great production work..

..sounds like the vocalist needs a different key..

..and a bit faster might help.

How very strange. My comment has disappeared :o

Basically, I agreed with everyone else, but added that it sounded as though there was some room echo also tending to spoil the singers efforts. Was this a live venue of studio.

Looking forwad to the next take anyway.

ce morceau a t'il été oublié?Dommage, avec un peu de travail il serait parfait.
this piece has it been forgotten? Too bad with a little work it would be perfect.  ;) ;)

This is a common problem!
I have a big folder of unfinished or forgotten songs :(
I sometimes look again and have an idea. Then it all goes well and the tune is free at last :)

C'est un problème commun!
J'ai un gros dossier de chansons inachevées ou oubliées :(
J'ai parfois Regardez à nouveau et avoir une idée. Puis tout va bien et la mélodie est enfin libre :)

Currently this is on the back burner.

I’m trying to get the guys to write some newer material.

Maybe we will come back to this one at a later date.

Thanx for listening and the comments though!
