Simian Girl <---- Soundcloud Link

Lyrics: 


I wanna live 
with a simian girl 
I could be happy 
the rest of my life 
With a simian girl.



A dreamer of monkeys 
I run in the night 
You'll see me as apeman, 
chasing the moonlight, 
With my simian girl.



All the bananas, 
have safely been stowed 
The apeman relaxes 
and stares at the load 
With his simian girl.



A dreamer of monkeys 
He runs in the night 
You see him as apeman, 
chasing the moonlight, 
With his Simian girl.



And I have a monkey now 
I'm gonna make it somehow 
Don't need another chance 
You'll see my monkey loves to dance 
Yeah...yeah...yeah.

Weird lyrics but I love the song - the idea and the execution.

A classic tune for sure, but the dissonance between the vocals made it such that I had to stop it just a bit in to the 1st verse :-( Would have liked to have heard the lead guitars.

Yeah, I get that Robby.


Admittedly, not one of my better vocal attempts.


Let's just say I was trying to channel old Kneel as if he was on a bender with cotton in his mouth and and ear infection.


You know, a typical Kneel Jung live performance.

The avatar is definitely better than the vocals, yes?

I understand, I wasn't trying to comment on the vocal performance? As I know it was a parody/spoof.


If it was one part? I could have listened and gotten by it? But multiple parts together, when out of tune enough? Have a certain effect :-( You can do wonders w/vvocal and or melodyne? and or autotune? And it doesn't take a lot of time?
