Anyone want to sing my song?

IamtheWalrus

I am an acoustic guitar player and occasionally write bits of songs that never make it beyond little clips. I never take the clips to completion. I am a very average singer and have never written lyrics so I'd prefer if someone helped out.

What I'm asking..

I would like to finish the music for one of my latest clips. I would like to record this in an agreed format and get someone to write and sing lyrics on the top of the track. Ideally I'd prefer a female vocalist (but that's not mandatory). You don't have to be in any way good. I'd just like to collaborate with another musician, to see what comes of it.

My influences are Radiohead, The Smiths, The Beatles, Arcade Fire, et al. The track is in minor key (starts with Em).

Let's see where we can take it.

All levels of musicianship are welcome.

Hi all,

I'm London based. For what I'm trying to achieve, this shouldn't be an issue I don't think. I can send demos in any format. We can see if we are a good combination..

If you want to hear the track, PM me.

I'm listening in work trying not to laugh too loud. Great stiff man. I genuinely appreciate your work. I'll try to write some more and maybe we can work together soon.


Love the subject matter.

You turned a very blue Monday into lighter shade. No mean feat.

That bridge/middle eight/whatever is very funny.

Thank you very much, delighted you liked it! I actually had loads more dialogue written for the captain and the docking crew, but the amount of bars were already set so I had to chop a lot of it out. Still, I got the lines I wanted in there anyways :pac:
