The vocals on this one from Nigel and Aaron are simply fantastic!!

Nigel is on holidays so poor Aaron had to deal with me on this one -poor guy, I hope he recovers soon

He also did all the mixing and produced an awesome mix.

New rookie bass player too on this one

Enjoy!!

Very nice fellas. Very nice.

Mike's first go on Bass and a bloody good one too!!
Nige's vocals are perfect for this song.

I heard this song on the radio after the Olympic Closing Ceremony and immediately thought that it suited Nigel's (schnuffi) voice. I sent him a PM saying that I thought it would be a good song for him & the BBs and before I knew it he had laid down a trial vocal and guitar track and called me into the studio to take part... Oh and then he promptly buggered off to Germany to frollick with beer wenches and the like!!!.
I was very proud to make an appearance with BB's and I hope Mike doesn't hate me too much after the pressure I put on him. He put in an enormous amount of work on this and had a major family health crisis in between!! I'm almost certain he doesn't sleep. Thanks Mike and great effort on the vid.

Nigel has a nice voice whether he admits it or not. Great choice on the tune.

Thank Mike. The vocals make this song for sure.

Aaron fails to mention that a day after Nigels demo he comes back with those backing vocals mixed in already. Talk about having your jaw hit the floor. I knew at that point I was dealing with a pro here.

I'm sure after my 10th take Aaron was secretly cursing Nigel for laying all this in his lap. Lol

Cuppa tea.........

WOW outstanding !!
Love the production !
Very well done by all.
Thumbs up !!

[mikedem]

Thanks Don and Jack!

I think Nigel has run out of MB on his German data plan....he's been quiet....or the beer wenches are occupying all his time.

I'm pretty sure it will take more than free beer to get treebeard on board. My guess is the Beach Boys will sign him to do ALL of their harmony parts and I bet they pay better than beer!!

Better than the original
