Here's another fine tune from the Silent Hill 3 soundtrack, I Want Love. As usual, this is another fantastic melancholy composition from Akira Yamaoka, who's scores were extremely consistent from Silent Hill thru Silent Hill 5. This is mostly the version known as the studio mix which differs from the in game version of the track featuring a much heavier rock guitar arrangement. In my cover, I included the piano part from the in game version of the track during the intro of the song which I thought worked pretty well in spite of a dissonant #7 interval that the piano part really exaggerated that was already present in the guitar part.
First things first, the vocals were way outside my wheelhouse, really taking quite alot of manual tuning to get them into the semi-presentable state they're in (my hats off to people who find singing easy!). They were definitely a struggle to track, but I definitely learned a few more things about what gives me trouble with vocals, so it was a good learning process. Beyond that, all guitars were double tracked, including the guitar solo which I added a partial harmony to in a few spots. I added a piano part for the choruses that plays the vocal melody with the right hand, and a simplified version of the chord progression with the left hand. I was pleasantly surprised that keyboard part took alot less rehearsal to get under my hands then I thought it might. Finally, bass and drums were kept rather inline to the spirit of the original track, although some of the drum fills are rather spicy!
Anyway, it was definitely something else trying a song I arguably have no business trying to sing! Hopefully it's not too nails on a chalkboard!
