black widow by oldrottenhead

[Oldrottenhead]

with the upcoming fest on songs based on a book or a movie i was inspired to do this.

all done rather quickly so lots of clipping on the vox but i'm done with it and forward ho to the next one


she will smother you with all her love
take you by the hand and drown you with passion
she could lead the blind astray
and break the will of stronger men than me
she will take your heart
she will take your soul

gently to her you surrender
yielding to her soft advance
she will wrap her hair around you
you're hypnotised by just a glance
she will take your heart
she will take your soul
and she will give you nothing
nothing...
in return
black widow
black widow

she will lure you to her world
where butter doesn't melt in mouths
but you can feel something's not quite right
but you're looking through rose tinted spectacles
she will take your heart
she will take your soul
and she will give you nothing
nothing...
in return
black widow
black widow

May well have been done quickly, but that has not diminished the quality of this tune, fits perfectly with the subject matter a great listen enjoyed it so much ,magic!!!

[cuthbert]

Kinda scary, with that John Carpenter-like piano! 

You're the master of that Juno, Jim - great vox and lyrics as always.

[Kenny B]

WOW!  This is intensly excellent.  "Rather quickly"?  Just don't slow down ...
Going to listen again.

Quickly??? This sounds like you put a lot of time into it! This is incredible!

[Oldrottenhead]

usually with me if it doesnt happen quickly it doesnt happen at all. this was done in well under an hour and is all very simple, but i have spent the last 5 hours trying to do an associates song for the localfest thingy and it is a car crash, i cant hit the notes mr mackenzie can and whenever i hit record i play  at least 60% bum notes on the keys. naw nearer 80%. am determined to do one of their songs but i think im too old for it lol.

The more I listened... the more my foot tapped and I could hear (in my head of course!) a Gary Moore style, moody blues lead... crying over the top of this track....

That's the guitar head on me  

Brilliant... Really liked that!

if you want to try add some gary moore style lead over it go for it, have you got the 800 out the box yet? whatched legends on bbc4 iplayer about thin lizzy the other night was braw.

Go Johnny go..........I would love to hear it............Great song Jim, some crying blues lead over this would be insane................get that BR-800 out of the box Johnny.

I have an agonising week to wait To do that, do you just download the whole track as MP3 and import it to a single track on the BR?
