Thom

Tommy · 12-07-2005, 11:47 PM

I have a recording of me playing insane on my purevolume site www.purevolume.com/thombartley, but its recorded on my uber ****ty home mic and my vocals are REALLY rough, still have a look if you want.

Thom

muskoxen · 12-08-2005, 05:26 AM

quite good for the most part! i was amazed. i was like oh dear...not another. but then i heard you playing and got hooked. you voice is brilliantly gorgey, but you need to lay off the t's. soften your words a bit and you'll be ****ing brilliant. cheers.

wow are u from wolvo tommy? im studying in edinburgh at the mo but i come from shrophire- shrewsbury? if u have heard of it. such a small world

Tommy · 12-08-2005, 01:06 PM

Hey,
thanks for all the positive replys, firstly i know about the T's and it really annoyed me when i listened back, my mom had picked up on them before and i changed the word ''bit'' to ''bid'' basically, but then recorded it wrong

but oh well. And i come from near Sedgley in Wolverhampton but at the moment im at Keele University

Thom

origami · 12-08-2005, 03:46 PM

bless ur mommmmmm. keele eh? i went there once 4some random reason

Tommy · 12-08-2005, 04:53 PM

Haha yeah my mom is my harshest critic, she always finds something to moan about with my songs, its good though its better than getting loads of fake ''yeah its really good''s.

origami · 12-08-2005, 05:01 PM

hehe i suppose but still....i hate when my mum critises. i feel like im always trying to please her and we she does say somethings good i think its to shut me up!!! mothers, so strange

eskimochicken · 12-08-2005, 09:34 PM

Check out my version of Volcano http://s18.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1...32EX49OTTOPD99

origami · 12-08-2005, 10:54 PM

mmmmmmm chicken dat is goooooood!!!!!!! what a group of beautifully talented people! very natural voice love! would sound great with my friends cello like

Tommy · 12-08-2005, 11:10 PM

Thats great man, really like the vocals, the guitar tone isnt good though the bass end really fuzzes, distracts from the otherwise great performance

Thom

eskimochicken · 12-09-2005, 05:53 AM

and after all that i actually posted the wrong song!! thanks for your nice comments though.

The one i was supposed to post had lead and base guitar and backing vocals with nice harmonies. thats actually why the ending was so long because i was toying aound with different harmonies. Ill try and upload the proper version one day

maryb21 · 12-10-2005, 04:39 AM

Yes, very very good!!
Congratulations, I left you a message on your myspace!

(i messaged you on myspace about this) that's what it was, your words were too sharp. it took away from the song's initial soft quality. other than that, like i said, i'm jealous you have to guitar part down so well.
