| Sorry to mislead, but the lyrics and piano are me, and the vocal is from the producer/studio owner (I can't sing for toffee), although I did coach him through it, with the help of the english 'For Sarah' recording. The demo was done in a non-stop 10 hours, with only around 4 hours for the vocal. I would have ideally spent days or weeks on it, and there are a few places I don't like the vocal, but 'endlessly' seems okay to me...keep listening. > Scaramouche, > > I've transferred the song to my PMP.
