I have recorded Mick-AKA's lyrics to original backing


My apologies to Mick-AKA who asked for Andreas Botcelli to record it for you

Sadly it ended up being ME singing as NO ONE ELSE would try it !!

So If you want to HEAR how it SOUNDS

YOu will find it in the ZONE as EAB carol

It's very close to the original..

Rubbish, inaudiable vocals with that menacing twist.

Where can I buy it? !!

You're a good sport Woody.
Cheers

Oh fuck I'm tough
I'm so rough
I feast on blood
KILL YOUR DOG FOR SATAN

Yeah.......

Kill your sister with a spanner
kill your brother with a blender
rape your granny with a broomstick
KILL YOUR DOG FOR SATAN

Lick the sweat from an old man's back
ram a chainsaw up his crack
put it on youtube for fun
KILL YOUR DOG FOR SATAN

Go and find yourself a nun
put her in bondage for some fun
masturbate, on her face,
disappear without a trace
KNIT A SWEATER FOR SATAN

Steal children from all over town
steal a tow-truck run them down
Take Santa down with a SAM-7
BUY A CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR SATAN

Can we please organise or select another Song Creation from this competition so we can create an EAB Xmas Albumn ?

I,m sure there are others who could happily murder a few other tunz for your amusement LOL

The current recording is a single live take ...a version for the Albumn will need backing singers...as niether of my hamsters can hold pitch ..it will help if other members volanteer !

The logical one to do would be the Live Aid - Do The Know It's Xmas? single, everyone writes a few lines and records them, then we mix it all togeather with a backing track

so lets look at the original lyrics

recorded on November 25, 1986

It's Christmastime
There's no need to be afraid
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime

But say a prayer

Pray for the other ones
At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging
chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

(Here's to you) raise a glass for everyone
(Here's to them) underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world
Feed the world

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmastime again

repeat then fade

(Bob Geldof & Midge Ure)

while I can definitely provide an spoof backing version ..it will mean each person RECORDS there contribution over it...But we need a COMMON agreed
Chorus /Refrain to replace the

Feed the world ..doo they know its xmas time ...BIt

then each contributor can add their voice to those parts too !

I have zoned a dub version with copy vocals ...will those who want to record PM me for the backing track for adding their original recording to it

A PM'd e-mail adress will be the fastest way...then the next contributor can add to your returned version......or I could just paste your bits together & mix in the chorus tracks


IT will proberly be ready for NEXT xmas LOL

I don't know where you'd put it, but this thread surely must be moved from off-topic as it's too good to lose forever.
