    Now THAT’S the response I expected! <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_wink.gif” />

     

    I imagine it would be helpful with the more obscure artists to include a YT video link/embed?

    Indeed!

     

    Thx for posting.

    Just in case, the tracks will be released on 2081?

    Yes, these are preview versions for the long-awaited album! <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_biggrin.gif” /> <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_wink.gif” />

     

    (Actual explanation: “Also note that all of my singalong tracks have a release date 100 years in the future for easy sorting.” Or filtering, I suppose I should have said: easy to eliminate them from the list if people are playing instruments.)

    I would be eternally grateful if someone could chart these songs for full band (specifically, bass) in the future. I’ve never charted before or else I’d volunteer to do it. Japan is one of the most underrated bands to come out of the 80s, and surely the best art-rock band of all-time. For you progheads out there, Japan’s lead singer David Sylvain released two fantastic albums with King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp in the 90s, that are definitely worth checking out.

    Sylvian. Because Sylvain is quite different.

    Quite different, yes, though apparently Sylvian named himself after Sylvain!

     

    I dunno if RB charting can even come close to doing Mick Karn’s fretless bass any justice. All those slides!

     

    (Also for progheads, Richard Barbieri is now with Porcupine Tree.)

    Ghost brings me back to my DDR days. Its nice to know where the song originated from though, finally going to check out all your vox only customs MFX thank your for sharing.

    Mind blown. An electronic cover in DDR? Never knew!

    SINGLE: David Bowie – “Absolute Beginners”

     

    Oh, Bowie, how we miss you already…

     

    This was essentially the “title track” from the 1986 rock musical film, featuring the man himself among the cast. Loverly tune.

    Audio edits: Shortened the intro slightly, eliminated the single’s fade-out by splicing in the ending of the full-length version.

    (Here’s the music video for the long version…)

    Your tracks definitely need full band, especially Absolute Beginners. May I have the Reaper file to chart the instruments, please?

    The amount of Bowie coming out is outstanding. We might see “Changes” soon.

    Thank you for Absolute beginners! I also love that it could become full band.

    I certainly hope we do. Not working on it but definitely eager to. Available time is another thing though.

    SINGLE: The Fixx – “One Thing Leads to Another”

     

     

    So we’ve already released The Fixx’s “Saved by Zero”, might as well provide their biggest hit from the same album, right?

     

    UPDATE: @Bansheeflyer has now filled out this custom to Full Band! Such a great song (and another successful collab!), and now available to all players. As such, I’m taking down links to the old singalong, and here’s a link to the release thread.

     

    Audio edits: @Bansheeflyer spliced in a remix ending to eliminate the album version’s fade-out, and I shortened the last repeat section just a little to get it down to multiples of 4.

    Great pick.

     

    You will need to fixx the release date – 2083 in visualizer.

    That’s my general practice for these singalongs:

     

    *** Also note that all of my singalong tracks have a release date 100 years in the future for easy sorting.

    You can use it to filter out my vox-only songs when you have people playing instruments: would suck to force them to sit out! Once we have Full Band versions of these, the dates are fixed.
