THiRD NEW TRACK UP ON WH MYSPACE - CARMELiTA

Postby Ean » 5th May 08, 12:55

Preview Track 3 - Carmelita (May 5th)

Originally by - Warren Zevon

Lead Vocal by Scott Sorry

Some words from Scott, Ritch & Ginger about the song.

Scott Says:

This song is one of my favourite songs of all time. It brings back so many memories. For the most part it reminds me of being up for days, high as a kite with Ginger in the middle of a canyon in Malibu. We were a fucking absolute mess. This song captures that 6-month period perfectly. Not to mention we listened to it every day. Kind of a theme song for the fucked up hermits that we were and it only made sense to cover it.

Ritch Says:

Ralph from Grand Theft Audio first played me Warren Zevon. Werewolves of London became a daily ritual on the GTA tour bus. I hadn't heard Carmelita until Scott suggested it and I'm glad he did. What a phenomenal vocal from the young lad.

Ginger says:

Our version is a lot more punked up that Warren's. Check out the original for some of the darkest country you will ever hear. Absolutely authentic and incredible.

Hmm... not so sure what I think, I'm in two minds...

I was expecting something similar to the Rachel Stamp version

Never can be sure with this band

I've only ever known this song as the Rachel Stamp version, so I will have to go and dig out the original. It's a fucking beautiful song. I wish Rachel Stamp would tour again. And play Leeds. And not have to play somewhere the size of a toilet like they did last time. Carmeliiiiiittaaaa... :cry:

It's cool, but Scott is clearly straining hard to get those high notes.
