This is my song based on the children's action rhyme Two Little Dickie Birds, here's the Wiki link

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Little_Dickie_Birds

Reloaded with a bit on the end - litlr (internal mics) with additional harmonies. I'd like to take the time out to record this properly at some point but for now you get the gist!


Two Little Dickie Birds

Two Little Dickie Birds – Hilary Fox 21.3.12

I'm like a little hungry sparrow
Being thrown a crumb
I'm like a little hungry sparrow
Just singing my song

Hungry for you
Hungry for love
Hungry for . . .

So I'm sitting on the fence
And I'm cold and alone
Just waiting . . .

Waiting for you
Waiting for love
Waiting for . . .

Little robin red-breast, will you sing with me?
Little robin red-breast, will you comfort me?
Little robin red-breast, will you lay with me?

Two little dickie birds sitting on a wall
Come back Peter, please come back Paul

Little robin red-breast
Do you notice me at all?

tweet, tweet etc

One little dickie bird sitting on the wall  . . .

That is the new ending Reggie, I've just reloaded it - it is better and slightly faster than the first version

Thanks :)

Pretty short, but as always you've done brilliant job! Which preset you used on the harmonies?

I didn't, it's just me! - I did it all on the BR, internal mics and just lowered the volume for the backing vox and added a smidge of reverb. The singing's a bit rough on this though, it was first thing in the morning and I hadn't warmed up, should have redone the main vox!

Thanks for the info...I do own BR-80, too. I just thought that the folks always use a certain effect :D

Looking forward to hear the redone version!

I hate dislike the vocal effects on the BR, they suck real bad  ???
