"Zooey's Sister (Revisited)" a Geir original for the First Post Fest

[Geir]

OK, it's not my first post, but it's my first song post (the first one was an instrumental "jam".

This is just a simple rocker, and when I on the first version used the microBR, my Ibanez ST300 and and old Orfeo bass (now in Jarle's possession) I this time used ... well .. a bit more gear ...... but hey that was the point of the fest wasn't it ?

Here's the original:

I'm sitting in my room
I'm feeling all alone
I wanna get out
and get rid of this gloom
I wanna rock
I wanna roll
I wanna feel a boom
I wanna get out of this cocoon

I wanna learn to fly
60 miles high
no aeroplanes beneath me
around me only sky
I wanna soar
I wanna roar
I wanna make some noise
I feel like I haven't got a choice

--

And flying right beside me
is Trillian and you
Zooey bring your sister
then we'll be more than two
I wanna fly
I wanna cry
I wanna shout out loud
as Africa is rising through the clouds

Hiya from deepest lurk. Just dropped by and can you believe this I was listening to the original version on my mp3 player while out for my morning walk just a couple of days ago. Love the update here, great production and great playing. Vox are excellent as well. But most of all loving the polished production, you've really come on since those early posts.

Still love the song and the complete wackiness of it.Too cool Mr. G.

Byeeeee!

[Burtog]

wow, that is full on from start to finish, love the vox and the intro organ bit sounded ace!

[Farrell Jackson]

Now this is music to my ears Geir....you are playing my style of pub rock! Oh yeah both versions rock but the newest one has a bit more finesse and clarity to it. You are rockin' the room Geir!

Loved it! Great loose feel that seems like it could have been a White Album bonus track. Definitely rocks, love the three chord stomp. Going to have a listen to the original now.

Wow brilliant rendition of your old song,the vocal fairs better production wise on the one as does the clarity of the guitar.
Brilliant .
