Because 1,000 H-Bombs are just as bad as 10,000

A Fool's Paradise

           They say, Hey Look!
           The armies are receeding!
           Times are changing
           Can't you feel it in the air?

           Its Just Fool's Paradise...

           Changes in all the world
           Changes all for the good
           That we should, should,
           should, should

           Its Just Fool's Paradise...

       The Cloak of Peace
       Before Our Eyes
       It is the Wool

       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?

       A Fool's Paradise!

           Only down hill away from here:
           The deepest part of....
           The deepest part of my fear!
           Only time will tell...

       The Cloak of Peace
       Before Your Eyes
       It is the Wool

       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?

       A Fool's Paradise!

           They say, Hey!
           The missles are receeding...
           Look at the paper fly!
           From the capital to the capital...
           nearly every day...

       The Cloak of Peace
       Before Your Eyes
       It is the Wool

       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?
       Are you the fool?

       A Fool's Paradise!

Adlib drums and bass (remember the Adlib FM synth card??)
slide guitar, in the begining,
three guitars, the center one backwards, at the end

Well, what to say, clones. A nice piece of rock and roll..
Maybe a remark about the vocals, but not the pitch this time.
I got the feeling that you are sometimes too focused on singing the lyrics correctly, so you loose the contents of it a bit, as expression. For example the lines (4 times):
Are you the fool?
They are just too neat on the timing, which is not necessary.

Hi Sam, thanks for the listen. I don't remember singing this one. My guess is that because I used the adlib card the drums and bass came first and the slide guitar and then vocal line. I know the lyrics are improvised. That I sang on time is probably a minor miracle. I was changing the setting of the digital delay as I sang. I do remember playing the slide though - that was strange because I just did this hand motion without thinking "notes".
