Hopefully that head of yours will swell up large enough that I can use it as a land bridge, and pop in for a visit ! :lol:

Wow, great job! I love the contrast between Melissa's very melodical voice and the deeper voice of the singer. :up:

Cheers Sprogger ! :smile:

Marcus 9. October 2006, 02:04

Very cool indeed! How'd you find the music to fit along so well with Melissa's voice?

Wakajawaka 9. October 2006, 12:02

Thank you FMX.........glad you liked it :smile:

How do I do I find the music??..........Well, its kind of the same with all of them.......I have a good listen to what the person sounds like. Usually I get an idea pretty quickly of what will work and what wont.....then its just a case of putting it together then checking if it sounds the same coming out of the speakers as it does when I hear it in my head :smile:
