Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me - (COVER) By: Drew Dawson & Barrie Walker

Hey You guys! I'm sorry it's been so long since I posted a vid. I KNOW it's been forever. I figured I should make it good for taking so long...something not only good..but different!

This is my buddy Barrie Walker...he goes by Baz to some. I think he's a talented guy and we kicked around the idea of a musical collab for some time....and here's where we ended up. We hope you guys like what you hear.

Baz lives all the way over in Europe. He sent me his raw vocal and video from ALL the way over there and I spliced and mixed everything together. Pretty awesome huh? With New technology and the internet, there really isn't much you can't do. I've heard of over dubbing...or tracking on top of another mix from another studio before. It happens alot with strings. They record down to the basic mix...and then send back the raw information and the mastering studio mixes everything in right...but that's in major studios etc. It amazing how powerful out little studios are now. Anyway...You'll notice Barry's vocal sounds different than mine. not just because our voices are different...but because his mic and pre amp are different...Hense a different tone...and phase etc. But they do that a lot with duets. Find a mic that fits each singer and then mix them together...and the difference in tonal qualities between the mics make each of the voices stand out in their own way. ANYWAY...going on forever here. But i thought this was cool. Although I won't be doing it again any time soon as it was a lot of work. =0)

@boutabeastar420 : What's teh deal? Is it the Elton John thing. Ya know...if there's one thing I've learned in all of this it's that people will associate you with whatever pre set thoughts they have about a song and artist who originally sang the song. If I sing Lonestar I sound like them..if Flatts....same thing...Keith Urban etc etc...and if I sing Elton John...That means I'm fruity. LOOLOL!  Well...That's not my problem. Without sounding rude..I say we enjoy the music and get over it.
