New Youtube Vid - Citizen of the Cosmos

Something I had done months ago but only put up the other day.

Its a haunting acoustic cover of a pop/dance track I done a while ago called "Citizens of the Cosmos", James Yoyo gave me a hand on that also. 

Some piano,guitar,cajon and even some HD visuals in this one.

Take a look!

    Awesome video and music track! The opening riff sounds a lot like a popular song from years ago but can't put my finger on it. Anyway, I really enjoyed this!

    GREAT tune & video.  I'm all about acoustic simplicity and this really  shows your talent. Excellent, lead vox and harmonies. You have a Glenn Tilbrook vibe to your voice.  KUDOS!

    Scott, glad you enjoyed it, and yes that opening riff did half ring a bell at the time and i now believe it is actually similar to against all odds by phil collins!

    Tim, thanks for loving it.

    Kev, thanks for your comments too, glenn tilbrook, nice man!thanks

    Really enjoyed this Cian. Well done.
    Only nits I have is that the video seemed a little out of sync with the audio and the guitar is out of tune (didn't really bother me but, I noticed, The B string:)
    Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Ben,peaceful...i like.
    Tim, many thanks for your input also. In relation to your nits...you are right and I would agree, however with the equipment I had and the time frame I felt they were very minor. I have to visually sync the exported sonar wav file with the videos in windows live movie maker, this aint easy and in fact is quite pain staking. I only found the last piano part to be slightly off. I would like to know how this is properly done, I presume you sync by looking at both waveforms, Im thinking of purchasing sony vegas because of this in fact


    The guitar is slightly out of tune and I would say its probably the bottom open e string!, however I had done so many takes I felt it would suffice, it is not helped by the chorus effect put on it either. 

    Thanks again guys.

    Cian

    Really well done Cian. It's the mark of a good song, when it can be sung to a simple accompaniment like that.
