Cornelia (2017 Remix) (Pleasuredome/Riggorog/Zax/Jayman/AndyG)

[AndyG6508]

Redid the bass guitar part...and took the opportunity of getting the "Wiz" Zax to replace the acoustic and rhythm guitar parts (poorly played by yours truly from last time around).

It was nice to listen to the guitar work from Riggo and vocals from Percy again.

Frank came up with another stunning mix armed with a shiny new limiter.

Cornelia (Gupta/McAndrew) (c) 2017

Verse1:
Oh Cornelia, can't you hear me callin'?
It's been a while and that's appallin'
Though you tried to hit me with your lorry
Please believe me when I say "I'm sorry"

Oh Make me happy and take me back again

Instrumental break

Verse2:
Oh Delia can you hear me pleadin’?
Screaming out your name until my lips start bleedin’
I know I've hurt you and caused you so much pain
So please forgive me, let's start again

Oh I'd love to have you back here with me

Chorus 1:
When together it's so much better
Oh Everything just falls back into place
Feels so good when we're together
Oh Everything falls back into place

There's something here you can't deny
We've got something going you and I
Can't you feel it yeah?

Guitar Solo

Verse3:
Ophelia can't you hear me choking?
Will you let me back in, see that I'm not joking?
Could you once more trust me and once again care?
Once again be happy with our love so rare?

You're the best thing that ever happened to me

Chorus 2:
When together it's so much better
Oh everything just falls back into place
Feels so good when we're together
Oh everything just falls back into place

There's something here you can't deny
We've got something going you and I

Repeat Verse1:
Oh Cornelia, can you hear me callin’?
It's been a while and that's appallin’
Though you tried to hit me with your lorry
Will you please believe me when I say "I'm sorry"?

Coda:

Yeah, make me happy and take me back again
See-saw Marjory Daw
I'd love to have you back here with me again
Oh Cornelia, Delia, Ophelia!!!!

This is sounding absolutely fab guys and I have just recorded a very short section of re-done vox for you   

I have also redone the lyrics to follow the actual sung part Andy :

Verse1:

It's been a while and that's appallin'
Though you tried to hit me with your lorry
Please believe me when I say "I'm sorry"

Hi Steve,

Glad you like the mix!!

I enjoyed that shout out to Peter Gabriel . Maybe we should do a cover .

I had forgotten about the changed lyrics, I shall replace the lyrics in the first post with your iteration.

Cheers,
Andy

Percy Gabriel?  Is it really you?   

Great vocals as always, Steve!

Frank

[Zax]

Thanks for the invitation to take part in this great tune, Andy! 

And btw... your bass track for this was way cool and really well played!

In fact, all the tracks were a pleasure to work with.

At the end of the song "Gallows Pole" (1970) by Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant sings "See Saw Margery Daw" in reference to the swinging movement of a hanged body.

So does our Percy!

In some folklore, Margery Daw is a certain type of woman .

I love it! Lots of energy, vocals really reminds me of Robert Plant. Pleasuredome is the only man I know who can sing it this way. So so good!
