great idea roger, wish i'd known about it...i could tell who wrote each verse and the recording with most of the contributors works well.

well done chordians

phill

I'd like to second what Russell has said. I too am proud to have been asked to be a part of this fantastic project..!   I sent my mum the MP3, explaining it was a worldwide effort, & she said she listened with a lil tear in her eye, hehe.  The time, effort and dedication from all involved, and ESPECIALLY Roger, is amazing..!

Well done everyone..! 

Hi everyone, Roger, you did a fantastic job on this tune. It's amazing the things you can do over the internet,,,,thank goodness Al Gore invented the internet...:lol: (for those that don't know, this is a huge joke in the states). Anyway thanks for including me in your song and hopefully more songs will come along and we can do it again.

Hi Phill,

Thanks. I enlisted the help from the people who had put their names in Russ's list, apart from Rachael as I wanted a female vocalist to be included and I knew she was able to record, but I will remember you for the next project I attempt. That is when my hair that I pulled out has regrown and I am released from the lunatic asylum after completeing this one.

Thanks Russ, Rachael, Scott and Jeff,

But it was the effort and expertise of you and the other contibutors that made this possible. I certainly learnt a lot and I am sure that your services will be called on again. No contribution can be considered small, every facet is equally important in completing the finished song and I am extremely grateful for the amount of help and effort that everyone has given so freely. Now we know it can be done I hope others will follow suit. Maybe some of the songwriters here who are unable to record their songs will consider such a project.

Thank you too Daddycool,

There was a lot of time spent balancing and mixing so many tracks, endevouring to make sure that each performer was heard, and OK perhaps had we been togther to record it would have been a little tighter, certainly much easier, but considering that no one heard anyone else's track I am amazed at how well it came out in the end.

Roger

IM GAME !

The Power Of Chordie A First

Congratulations Roger for doing an excellent job on this project. It definitely was worth the wait.
Well Done to you and a hearty pat on the back for your hard work.
Big Kudos to all involved from writing of the lyrics to jumping in on the vocals to laying down the musical tracks.
This project proves that being involved with Chordie is a very good thing.

Congrats all.

Kenny

Good Job Roger!

  I feel like a dolt, but I'm blaming it on my medication (it makes me stoooopid!).  I posted my congrats on the Recording Forum.

  As Russell has pointed out and Roger suggested in his posting on how it was done.  Amazing things can be accomplished with a little "team effort" and a stalwart "captain at the helm".  So by all means, if anyone here in the songwriting section has aspirations to put together a "virtual band" and record a tune or two.... assistance is readily available right next door in the recording forum!

  Once again "goodonya" Roger for a fantastic effort, and a hearty Thank You for allowing me to participate.

  Take Care; 
  Doug

Big Congratulations all round to each and everyone.

Arkady!  How  beautiful your guitar playing is. I love the flow of it through this song.

Blue Peter Badges for all who participated.   

Rachael, Well done Girl.

   Doug, your voice is low and Husky. Lovely quality Sir.

So very well done again to all.

Old Doll.
