Joanne asked me to do my version of Fancy Underwear that will be included on her upcoming collaborative album.
Lyrics are on Youtube.

It was great fun doing the song, the video I found hard as my mind ran wild for a while. grin Thankfully her original video fitted so well so needed only a slight adjustment blush

Thank you Joanne for thinking of me and giving me the privilege to be part of your wonderful project.

I hope you all enjoy the song and video.

RealTracks in song: ~1847:Bass, Electric, CountryBoogieArp Sw 140
RealTracks in song: ~961:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm CountryBoogieOpen Sw 140
RealTracks in song: ~373:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Hank Sw 165
RealTracks in song: 1990:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm 40s Boogie Sw 160
RealTracks in song: ~823:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Country Waltz Sw 140
RealDrums in Song: NewOrleansBoogie^01-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride
RealDrums in Song: UrbanPop128Shopping^1-a:KckClp, b:Kck

I used Joanne's original vocals, and harmonies, in the choruses but transposed down a tone, in BIAB, from the original . Then time shifted forward a smidge (40ms) and each line time shrunk an even smaller but random smidge to fit my vocals.
In FL Studio I added claps, kik drum and 2nd snare. Last 2 taken from the Nashville 8's RD.
Solo is me with EMU Proteus Free concert piano.

Again, thank you Joanne,

enjoy

That was fun!
Alyn, you've managed to outdo yourself here, definitely your best contribution so far.
We love the layering of the backing vocals, very professional!
We love the video too.
Isn't this a lovely project?

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

What a hoot!!! Joanne, in addition to writing great songs, you have a talent for A and R. Alyn was the perfect guy for this song (great delivery Alyn!), and your other choices have been excellent too. This has a great live, spontaneous, fun feel!! Video was icing on the cake! Take care. Greg

Noel, floyd, Guenter, Rob and Anne-Marie, Charlie, Janice and Bud,Lawrence, Bob, Richmac, David and Greg,

Joanne suggested I do this song and boy did I have fun and it couldn't have come at a better time also as sad events took over the extended gibbo family.

Yes Rob and Anne Marie it is a great privilege to be part Joanne's project and a wonderful opportunity for me to lower the tone grin laugh

BUT I can't get the song out of my head now!!!and it's time to take off my fancy underwear now!!! frown

Thanks all, but the song was an excellent starting point,

Alyn

Now we know why the Welsh are so good at rugby, its the fancy underwear that drives them on.

I loved this song when Joanne first posted it, and you have done a great job on it Alyn, seems no end to your talents, now must be the most productive period of your musical life me thinks!

Love the instrumental break as well.

Alyn - You did the most wonderful job with this song. I love it. It fits you like a hand in a glove and I love the fact that you "Gibsonized" it. It makes it so much fun.

Alyn is the only artist on this project that I did actually "select" a song for. He asked me to choose because he said he was very bad at making decisions (but he is definitely not bad at making a song SHINE!).

All the other artists selected their own songs to cover. This has in itself been quite wonderful because without exception everybody has selected songs that suit their particular styles.

Thank you to everybody that is involved in this. (And may there be many more like it!)
