Okay, how about the verse in In The Presence of Enemies Part 2 starting from 8:49...

Servants of the fallen
Fight to pave the way
For their saviour's calling
On this wicked day
Through a veil of madness
With a vicious play
One man rises up
Standing in the way

What a verse!.. :chill I wish I could have JLB's vocal range just to sing that part..

Doesn't look like there'll be any more entries for this one. Let's see...

CDrice, your entry was very entertaining, loved it. That death growl though.

Ad134, I'd say yours was the most professional-sounding. Really liked the multiple vocal tracks. Especially the ending.

Zyzzyva17, I loved how consistent you were with the throat-murdering harshness throughout almost the entire thing. And you made "don't cross the crooked step" sound like a death threat, lol.

Tomislav95, I didn't know Gollum could sing. :P

IdoSC, you started out pretty soft and almost timid, then you turned into Batman. Brilliant.


I think I'll go with Ad134's. Very difficult decision, all of the entries were awesome, but I really liked the sound of his.

Ad134 is now on holiday, so won't be back for another couple of weeks or so. Can't remember how long he said the holiday would be exactly, but I think it's two weeks.

I only read the first and last pages of this thread, but somebody should do a similar version with guitar licks.  That way I at least have a chance.

I would nominate the quintuplet solo from Erotomania.

Oh man, I missed out on such an awesome one... Ah well. I'm actually working on putting together a small studio in my home, so my recordings will be of much better quality now, and I'll be having so much more fun recording them. Looking forward to the next one!

So, Ad says he doesn't want to post here until he's seen DT in April, to avoid setlist spoilers. Just to warn you guys!

*Pokes thread with stick*

Anyone still alive in here?

Don't you mean Another Won? :P

I mean, I probably should have done that, but we've already gone to the concert now anyway (and it was awesome, by the way). I'll have to keep nagging him to come back here soon under threat of picking someone else. :laugh:

Okay, let's try this one... I hope we haven't done it before, but I ain't going through 12 pages to find out :D




Heaven must be more than this
When angels waken with a kiss
Sacred hearts won't take the pain
But mine will never be the same

He stands before the window
His shadow slowly fading from the wall
And from an ivory tower hears her call
"Let the light surround you"

Took you long enough. It's been, what, 6 months? :P

I'll probably do my entry tomorrow, when people aren't asleep.

Guys, if you don't want this to win by default, you better send in some entries.

By the way, you win by default even if there are other entries.

But here's mine anyway. When one bad take is not enough

That made me laugh so hard.  :rollin

I appear to have strained my voice from constantly singing along to things and never giving my voice a rest. Welp. I'll see how it is in the next few days. I want to enter this one :D

Surprised this thread hasn’t been revived sooner under the lockdown, but here it goes.  Has this section from Lines in the Sand been done before?  Disclaimer:  I am not a singer (obviously) and I do not have professional recording equipment (just a rudimentary computer setup), but this is a fun lyric for some shameless karaoke. 

Link:

Lyrics:
We fabricate our demons
Invite them into our homes
Have supper with the aliens
And fight the war alone
We conjure up our skeletons
Enlist the den of thieves
Frightened from our closets
Then sewn upon our sleeves
In the stream of consciousness
There is a river crying
Living comes much easier
Once we admit
We're dying

I used an instrumental version of the song from YouTube.  Feel free to link your own personal rendition or poke fun at mine.  Based on some of the prior samples in this thread, I’m sure there are a few DTFers that could really nail this one.   :metal
