Hi all,
Here's a french song about overconsumption.
Patrick Fournerat has written the lyrics and he sings on this minor blues.

https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/vendeurs-de-progres

Here's an approximate translation :

I see around me
This frenetic world
Selling anything
Everyone in his shop

These useless objects
Which invade us
Mercantile system
Who benefits ?

Progress sellers
Make me laugh
Not the shadow of a regret
To make us stupid

Since we accumulate
Compulsively
We’ve reached an impasse
Without alternatives

Limitless expansion
Which characterizes us
Misbehavior
Brings us to the crisis

Enough to race
At your percentage
Like a return to sources
After a great cleaning

Good song, good message, good singing. The simultaneous solos seemed just a little messy, not a big deal. (just my opinion)

A song for the times and something young Greta would likely endorse.
The sax solo was unexpected but very well placed to counter the guitar.
Well done - an always excellent collaboration team.


Cheers

It's blues, so it automatically gets a thumbs up from me. smile

The sax + guitar section where they played at the same time sounded a bit more like a competition that a collaboration, but that's a small nit.

Nicely done! smile

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