Members MattSkibaIsGOD Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 He has a phenomenal voice and is a great songwriter too. I'm praying that he'll come to chicago in the next year after his CD comes out; if I remember correctly, he is going into the studio soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to his website he's in the studio right now. This song however, is a cover tune and doesn't appear to be for sale anywhere. I came across it on Youtube and thought to myself "DAMN! That's ANOTHER awesome song. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members eor Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 gnarls barkley! didn't think i'd hear that from ray-ray, thought it would be the patsy cline song. ray is a tummy singer, no nose at all. just breathe deeply into your tummy/diaphragm and shove. this'll help you get a little closer. you'll probably get a little lightheaded, though. love,eor rectify your not owning the second album now. right now. empty is my favorite thing he's ever done, if you want to poke around a little for it. ps- mp3 downloaded and added to itunes. good find!

Eor is right on about "empty" and I think "gone away" is right up there too; in fact "All the Wild Horses" is my favorite Ray song. He is so awesome.

Members Verence Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 Yul Brynner was awesome. Das vidania, Yuliy. But yeah, smoking's not worth it, even if it guaranteed you a cool voice, which it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aussieguitarnut Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 i love ray. saw him do a solo show at the beautiful union chapel here in london - was one of the most amazing musical performances i've seen. the combination of his vulnerability as a performer and his powerful voice was just knockout. people were sobbing all over the place : ) i've also seen him in bigger venues with a band - still really great but that night at union chapel was something else.

Members kwakatak Posted February 25, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hehe - just kidding about the smoking thing. I can't stand the smell anyway. I know that Ray uses his diaphragm when he sing but my voice is more nasal and would take some serious work to tune my voice in that manner. Still, I guess the voice is kinda like an instrument in its own right, and I wouldn't be surprised if all it needed was to "open up" like a guitar.

Members g6120 Posted February 25, 2008 Members Share Posted February 25, 2008 Well I have this forum and particulary Stackabones to thank for turning me on to Ray's music. I'm a fan and have bought the CDs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kwakatak Posted March 4, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 4, 2008 Update: I just got his second album from Amazon a couple of years late, but it's new to me and I'm blown away. I can't wait for the next one to come out, what? Later this year? I gotta catch this guy live. I wonder if he'd still play the Rex in Pittsburgh's South Side?

Members kwakatak Posted March 4, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 4, 2008 Hehe - thanks, but he's strapped in so he wasn't going anywhere. He'd climb out if he could, or chuck his bottle at me - or worse, projectile vomit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
