Can I answer in the form of a cliche-filled song? I'm imagining Bob Hope and Bing Crosby crooning this together on a "Road to Somewhere Else" film:

That's What You Bring to the Table
I was perfectly happy with working as one
Thinking that I was second to none
I've learned to do things by myself
I wasn't looking for help from anyone else

I couldn't hear the part that was missing
I just couldn't see what wasn't there
But now that you've filled the hole, just listen
The final result has no competition

(CHORUS)
That's what you bring to the table
Something I could never have done by myself
Working together, you showed we are able
To make this into something else
Something much grander
A real outstander
That's what you bring
That's what you bring to the table

Suddenly words on the page can sing
I'd only done half the job with this thing
I thought I was clever, how I put it together
But you've made it a song
Like it was there all along

(PRECHORUS)
I said I was done
With what I'd begun
But you made it more
Raised up the floor
Made it into something
Really worth waiting for

(CHORUS)
That's what you bring to the table
Something I could never have done by myself
Working together, you showed we are able
To make this into something else
Something much grander
A real outstander
That's what you bring
That's what you bring to the table

Is it cheating to write the lyrics and melody in a song that literally is about collaborating on lyrics and melody? wink

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