Guys,
you have been incredibly helpful getting me on the road with Logic. I
am entering an amateur online song contest with a song called
Disturbing Tendencies. I am recording the vocals with the singer this
weekend and have done as much as I can with the backing track, with
what I have learned over the past six months. I know this is
incredibly cheeky, as everyone is immersed in their own music, but if
anyone had a few spare minutes to listen to the backing track and give
me some tips I would be so grateful. Without the vocals I know the
song sounds like it has no chorus, but trust me on that one. What I
really need to know is what will I look back on and say oh my god, how
could you have done that? So if anyone has the time and patience to
download and listen to the song, and to pull it to bits for me, I
would be very grateful. I'm posting the lyric that I wrote for the
song so that you can see the sort of standard that I am hoping to work
towards. (The song is partly autobiographical, partly about Kate Moss,
Pete Docherty and Tracy Emin (a British model, singer and artist,
respectively) although it could just as easily have been written about
Ami Whinehouse, except that it pre-dates her).
Thanks in advance for any tips...
Andy B

Disturbing Tendencies
You were a beautiful baby; heaven sent, heaven knows
You had a privileged childhood - boarding school, and it shows
Why is it, no-one else can see what I can see? You need help
you are displaying disturbing tendencies
Drinking too much, taking too many pills
Smoking too much, chasing too many thrills
When are you ever gonna wake up
And where will that be?
Too many end spent in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn on the lights
And when are you ever gonna grow up
And where will that be?
Will it be before your nemesis will show up?
With your celebrity lifestyle, gutter press stalking you
They build you up just to knock you down - that's what they always do
Now it's becoming clear for everyone to see, you need help
You are displaying disturbing tendencies
Drinking too much, taking too many pills
Smoking too much, chasing too many thrills
When are you ever gonna wake up
And where will that be?
Too many end spent in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn out the lights
And when are you ever gonna grow up
And where will that be?
Too many end spent in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn out the lights
And when are you ever gonna grow up
And where will that be?
Will it be before your nemesis will show up?
Will it be before....
Drinking too much, too many pills
Smoking too much, too many thrills
Drinking too much, too many pills
Smoking too much, too many thrills
You were a beautiful baby; heaven sent, heaven knows
