Hi All.

Unlike my friend Eddie, who writes from personal experience, this is simply a product of my fevered imagination!

The backing started out in Realband using all RTs, but once I started looking at the vocals some of the RTs weren't doing exactly what I wanted. I moved into Powertracks to do some overdubs and ended up replacing all the RTs except one. Exactly which one remained will become obvious to anyone who listens all the way through!

For the first time in twenty years, I mixed something outside of Powertracks. I've got a copy of Harrison Mixbus 32C which I've never actually used, so I thought I'd give it a try. The verdict? Better graphics than Powertracks and it's nice to have long-throw faders, but essentially it doesn't do anything which I can't do in Powertracks.

So here it is.

THE GIRL NEEDS ME
She's got a lot of diamond rings, she's got a lot of pretty things
She's made CDs, DVDs, yes the girl can sing
She's got her own atomic clock so she never runs late
She's got an MGB GT V8
Everybody knows everyone can see
There's only one thing that this girl needs
She needs me, the girl needs me.

She's got a condo on the beach, she's got money in the bank
She's got a stripped-down Harley with a tiger in the tank
She's got a chain of gas stations, so she's never out of juice
She's got a '57 Tele that she says belonged to Bruce
Everybody knows everyone can see
There's only one thing that this girl needs
She needs me, the girl needs me.

Some day she's gonna find out
Just what this life's all about
No matter how hard you try
There's some things that money can't buy.

She's got a cellar full of wine, she's got a vinyard in Bordeau
She's got a chateau in Provence where she never seems to go
She's got lots of friends on Facebook, she's got friends she's never seen
And her friends down at the laundry keep her money nice and clean
Everybody knows everyone can see
There's only one thing that this girl needs
She needs me, the girl needs me.

As usual, grateful to anyone who has time to listen.
Cheers,
ROG
