St. Elmo's Fire [Brian Eno cover]

Nothing spectacular. Some throat singing. Other than that, you probably won't be horribly impressed. For whatever reason, only part of the vocal stereo channels uploaded properly on this clip. The result is an incomplete vocal balance throughout the entire stupid recording. The original file has been corrupted, so this is all that remains of my effort.

Hey, maximpetergriffin: I'll have to check out that Mercury Rev song. You posted the same comment on my St. Elmo's Fire video. I've heard about that band in the past, but I have yet to check them out. So thanks for the heads-ups.

Hey that's pretty cool. You've got some good throat singing skills. I also made a cover but took a very different route with the whole thing, since I don't play guitar as well as you.  You can see it on my channel page if you like. -Stephen

If you have good singing/harmonizing skills, then you should have good throat-singing skills, assuming you learn how to throat sing. I liken it to whistling; it is almost zen-like once you figure out how to produce it.

I always say: start with a sustained 'L' sound, slide the tip of your tongue along the roof of your mouth until you get to a 'R' sound. Right in this area is where you will manipulate your tongue (in conjunction with the rest of your mouth) to produce throat-singing harmonics.
