New original song "Boogers", by Lectric. My first Song Post. Just me and my Ibanez and Audacity. Just got a BR532 and learned how to turn it on and off. Next month i will learn what to do in between. Hope you get a chuckle....Ted Degerstrom.

She was pretty as a picture
she smelled just like a rose
Her body it was perfect
but she had a snotty nose
She looked like a beauty queen
from her hair down to her toes
but she never took a bath
and she never changed her clothes
Now I love her with all my heart
I think she's pretty slick
but when I see those boogers
it always makes me sick
Now I'd sure like to kiss her
but I guess thats how it goes
HOW DO YOU KISS A WOMAN
thats got a snotty nose?

At first I thought this song was funny, but then I realized it's snot.

Seroiously though - this is a gas man!
The recording was only coming through the left side though

I can't answer the question, but I'm looking forward to hearing your songs on the new BR! Congrats!

As Vanncad said, you've only recorded to the left channel. And both channels have a lot of noise. But it's a good song. Maybe you should have another go at recording it and try to use both channels and eliminate the noise.

I've done a bit of processing on it in Audacity in an attempt to remove the noise, trim the ends, and simulate stereo. Unfortunately, this has introduced some warble, but here it is anyway.

That reminds me of this hilarious video.

There's also a good cover of it by Bigsky at the top of that topic. Check them both out.
