Default Idéaliser : I'mRawdg Version

I remember the "joy" of recording my first two songs, back in June, right while the concerts were going on. I recently looked back on that and really missed how great those times were, even if I wasn't able to be there. Early this week, after listening to Santana's "Europa" and Genesis's "Firth of Fifth" I got my influence to create this version of Idéaliser. I actually spent some time on this one, started on Sunday I believe. Although I probably only spent about 2 hours a day or less on it.

I am really satisfied, though. I have improved my recording quality, even though the drums still sound awful in my opinion. The song begins and ends very similar to the original, but I put in a slightly faster bridge part. And, true to my habit of creating long songs without meaning to, it is 7 minutes and 57 seconds. Once again, I beg you, do not fall asleep!!

And once again, I wish Operation Lilly Town New York the best of luck!

Here's the link:
Idéaliser (I'mRawdg Version)

Also, while I was making this, I thought, gee, maybe no one is interested in Idealiser, they would probably rather hear a more well known song, so I wanted to ask if anyone is interested in me doing another song eventually, and I would like if everyone could agree on one for me to do.

Personally I want it longer.
But that's because i'm used to Opeth.

But I love the works and i'd love to see what horizons you can extend her songs to.

Thanks ImRawdg. Idéaliser isn't my favorite song on the album, but as always I really like what you've done with it. Keep up the good work!

Good job, ImRawdg! Idéaliser is one of my favorite songs on Psychédélices. Thanks for sharing.

Great job indeed, you give the song a whole new athmosphare.

Im starting to believe this song might even be able to "metalize". Change to flute for a guitar and add some prog drums.

And don't forget the growl! (kidding)

Ok, so now I listened to your songs and they are great. I like this Idéaliser version. A clip would be good for my mobile phone. I need to figure out how to get it on there. Thanks for creating these.

Wow, finally got a chance to listen to this and I applaud your work. The recording quality sounds wonderful, percussion and all. There's just one minor thing I think you can improve, and that is the part at the end of the chorus (when she says "Un dernier baiser"). Maybe its just me, but those five notes seemed a lot more dramatic in the original version. But a seriously kickass job on the song and here's to many more I'mRawdg versions in the future.
