Hi All,
Here is the French Version of SOS Titanic .Its a song about the heroes on the Titanic percieved or real .English Link is below which I posted earlier in the year.
Realtracks make up the entire music ,High Violin,Low Violin,Piano and Cello the instruments used by the band on the ship.I put the violins through a filter to make them sound a bit haunting.urs Hugh

SOS TITANIC Cherbourg Édition
Sauvez-vous
Harper a pleuré
Les femmes, les enfants et les damnés
Le Carpathia se dépêche
Mais les héros de l’ombre trépassent
Molly Brown a crié
Revenez en arrière
Mais plus un bruit dans l’air
Plus un bruit
Kate et Léo se séparent
Selon l’histoire
Mais leur cœur battra toujours
Chacun pour soi désormais
Mais l’orchestre a continué
Sauvez nos âmes
Sauvez nos âmes
Au fil des ans, j’entends l’écho de Jack Phillips
Venez vite et sauvez nos âmes
Venez vite et sauvez nos âmes

English Version is at this link

Wonderful production work here. Clean sound. Loved the SOS Morse code bits fitting so well in the rhythm. Thoughtful and enjoyable throughout.

Hi Thanks all for the kind comments.The vocalist was fantastic as she was bilingual and her voice suited the song 100%.I had alot of sibilance problems in production due to the amount of S's in the song and dealt with them manually in the end and a light touch of a deesser after.The realtracks were amazing especially the Piano thanks again to PG for making this song possible Hugh

High.. I listened to your wonderful track, and I also listened to the English version. You are to be commended for the detailed work that you did on this composition. Both productions are very polished, and are of the highest quality. This is an excellent meditation on the titanic event. Thanks for sharing your creative work!

Hi Tano,Scott,
Thanks for listening,I think her vocal fitted both English and French and probably even more interesting in her mother tongue.I upped the angelic background(sampletank played over Realband midi) a little more in the Cherbourg version and I liked it.The standard of the songs on the Usershowcase pushed me hard to getting up near to the standard of the forum songs.Thanks again everyone for the positive reaction to the song Hugh
