So Wintersox was kind enough to send me a PM linking me to a 4-song EP of him. www.sendspace.com/file/qejt11- The first one is a cover Van Halen's Jump. Apparently unable to sing while playing the keyboard, or doing multirtrack recording, W. alternates between the two.
- The 2d track is a cappella cover of Ruby Tuesday, which is obviously quite a challenge with someone with such a poor singing voice. Clerverly enough, W. actually sing all the lyrics, except the words 'Ruby Tuesday'. Nice touch. When I first played that track, I actually had it playing on two different players but not in synch. Although the result was not fully convincing, it sounded somewhat creative and adventurous. My bad.
- The track is apparently an original called We He Hee; the title is also most of the lyrics. W. is sporadically snapping his fingers trying to trick us into believing he has a clue about rhythm. The 'shaman' bit, is actually scary. Is this a tribute to or a satire of Michael Jackson, I can't say, but it fits with pictures where W. pictured himself with pics of MJ. Why would anyone listen to this willingly is beyond me.
- The 4th is also an original, as far as I can tell. Cheesy lyrics, dodgy metrics, poor vocals & no music. Thankfully it's only 42 s.

Why not keep this in the wintersox thread?

I thought we needed a thread to discuss the man's music properly. Don't play the mod, man.

It's a bit strange for a man who just seconded Ben's thread about keeping wintersox stuff away from the main forums

In good time, I trust this will be moved in the appropriate section. In the meantime, could you plz stay on topic, instead of kicking up shit again? www.sendspace.com/file/qejt11 |

I guess this is an insult but I don't understand it.

You're probably going to need to turtle the links Chuz  Alturnatively you could Soundcloud them which would be nice for those of us without the ability to currently download stuff. |

Anyway, about the music. I haven't listened to much of wintersox his discography. I like honesty and if I'm being honest I like his art better than his music

+1 for his interpretation of The Fall's 'Big New Prinz' though |

Chuz is just jealous because Wintersox is a 1000 times more famous than he'll ever be.

I've not really paid much attention , but why were the Wintersox links moved in the first place, surely if its his own stuff there isn't a problem?

A lot of the stuff is apparently him singing over the top of the original track. It's very borderline copyright tbh. Videos on youtube can get removed if there's a song in the background for example.

Chuz is just jealous because Wintersox is a 1000 times more famous than he'll ever be. I've noticed the same. Chuz is constantly calling out on wintersox, pretending to care etc as a new way of promoting his own music and making us pay for it |
