Hi all,
Here's a children's song.

https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/fishes

Chorus:
Clownfish or catfish,
What beautiful fish are here!
Sunfish or sawfish,
What beautiful fish are there!

1) Clownfish, you’re orange and white
Nobody else is so fun
Clownfish, you’re orange and white
And you make laugh the Ocean

2) Catfish, in the deep river
You just purr in your own way
Catfish, in the deep river
With urchins you like to play

3) Sunfish, in the blue sea bed
Your rounded shape is so nice
Sunfish, in the blue sea bed
Your light is of great service.

4) Sawfish, you always tinker
You cut and fix everything
Sawfish, you always tinker
With the hammerhead helping

I did not listen to the original version but I really like this version.
Nice use of RTs and the synth voice.
Super mix.
A really nice children's song.

Hi, Christian.

A happy and fun song - I enjoyed listening.

Putting on my "grammar police" hat:

What beautiful fish is here!
The "is" should be "are", because "fish" is plural, so "are" is plural as well.

And you make laugh the ocean
Google tells me this works fine in French ("Et tu fais rire l'océan").
But in English, it's just... broken. frown

But not a big deal at all - the song still made me smile. smile

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

Thanks Mario, DC Ron and David for your comments.
I've changed the chorus using the plural.
I think this is a poetic song and I consider the Ocean like a person.
So I think that "And you make laugh the Ocean" can be used...

Sorry, I wasn't clear.

Calling the ocean a person is fine! It's just not written as an English speaker would say it.

But then, it wouldn't rhyme, so... All's fair in song and poetry! wink

Thanks, David, for your useful comment.
Do you mean that the correct sentence would be:
"And you make the Ocean laugh"

I've followed David's good advices and I've changed the wrong sentence.
Now, it is " You bring joy in the ocean "!
Do any of you know of a good English or American children's song site with a forum?
