Vienna...

Nice little exercise for folks and should be easily reproducable with RTs.

Who fancies having a go at it??

Best musical version - I'lll gladly add my vocals over the top

Hi Sam. I don't understand. Is 'Vienna' also a song? Or was there a link missing?

Billy Joel wrote a song called "Vienna"...

Not sure what Sam is getting at here.

"Vienna" by Billy Joel
"Vienna" by Ultravox

Different songs with one thing in common: the vocals look a lot easyer than they are!
The Ultravox song can (should) be done with MIDI-only. So I guess Sam is referring to the Billy Joel song.

Just ship it so it routes thru Michigan, it'll get cold on it's way by.

Time to turn off the little fridge and start leaving beverages in the garage again - works fall winter and early spring here!

Hi, Sam -

Here's an accompaniment file to use. Yes, it's a down and dirty, quickly created file, but it gives you something to use, and it's just a straight up BIAB file with some added parts. I didn't use RT's, but there are RD's in the file. Feel free to adjust accordingly.

So, let's hear a Viennese British ex-pat rendition of Vienna (which, by the way, I've visited several times and is a beautiful city)...

Have fun!

Refers to the fact that my apartment is in 'return to factory settings' mode and is totally UNconducive to songwriting and recording at the moment. This situation will likely last another month or so

I do like the Ultravox song.

Just had a look at the vid on YouTube. From what I can make out, it uses locations that appeared in 'The Third Man', which starred Orson Welles as Harry Lime, particularly as the song was loosely based on the film. Scenes include the Zentralfriedhof (main cemetery), the Freyung, Heldenplatz and the Opera House

Sorry to hear Sam that your apartment is in return to factory settings mode, hope you get it all sorted out soon,

Kind regards
