Are these available for purchase or download?

I think right now only the Lulu ones are, but I'm not sure.

Lulu is on soundcloud somewhere

the u2 album sparked the idea for me because I thought the song titles were interesting but I was not interested in the actual album

Ah indeed : I have never listened to that u2 album so whenever I see one of the titles I hear the ILX version in my head !

Very much the same thing for the Lulu album, too.

Yup. Actually, the only original album I know of the ilx covered ones is the AnCo, I think.

Whenever I see someone walking a little dog, I think of the Little Dog tracks on the ILX Lulu comp

localgarda if you need some loopin' floopin' synth shapes, i know a guy

i am up for this if you want to collaborate! i have a good idea of what i will do with this so i can webmail you if your ilx mail works, or else give me a mail here.

Ahah the opening lines from "Chinatown" :
Well the cops are taking over
While everyone's in yoga
'Cause happiness is still a warm gun

It's oasis lyrics generator level !

Three weeks to go!

I guess I should look at this, huh

My "Chinatown " version is a lot more...errm...minimal? Lyrically speaking.

(damned phone added those extra spaces)

Ten days to go!

I wrote a verse! Still haven't recorded…

i have the core of the track done, but it has a very expensive sample i must clear with paul mccartney

I confess i haven't had the time to work on the track as I initially planned it, I worked out the structure of it but realized it would take me forever to do it with my mininmal resources... plus I'm going on holiday next week. So, I'm going to cannibalize an existing track, hopefully it shouldn't take too long - hopefully - I think it should work out fine.

I'm in the same boat, suddenly having to move house in two weeks, but it'll be fine LG xx

i wrote something last week that was ok, just something tossed off that is pretty much a full song. i tried starting over from scratch yesterday and made a totally different song but i don't like it as much as the first. now that it's down to the wire i'm thinking i'll go back to that first one and clean it up. only problem is i don't think it sounds like Oasis or Liam at all =)

The latter has never been a requirement.

And thank god for that.

I did sit down to write a plodding indie-rock song with Vox organ and backwards guitars, etc but it ended up sounding like The Doors produced by Lee Perry with a head injury so went for something completely out of keeping instead.

I am, however, hamstrung by an appalling singing voice so will probably need to make it instrumental.

mine will contain a sizeable sample/backing track - nobody tell the artists responsible.

Would you all be alright with postponing the deadline a week, to Thursday 7 Sept? If not I'll have to give up my song. I'm in the midst of a surprise house move. Won't make the 31st of August. But if you all don't want to postpone a week that's fine and then I'll just hand my slot over to someone else. Otherwise I'll ~bring teh tunes~ a week later. Let me know, whoever's in charge.

That would be me. I'd be fine with an exception but would prefer everyone else stick with the deadline.

Ok, then hereby I'll hand in/back my song.

Ha, you misread me -- I'm saying you're the exception!

I'm still on holyday but will be able to finish mine on time.
As for the cover I think there's a thread will Liam pictures worth using !

What, Beady Eye ?

Ahah yeah. Ok it's mostly one picture !

Ahhh my bad, thanks Ned!

All good! And yeah, we still need a cover, so, anyone?

Hey Ned, just sent you my "For What It's Worth" (avoided hearing the song that's been out there it looks like)...anyway let me know that it goes through, or I can send you a link to DL.
Thanks!

Sent!

just need to make a slightly better recording of mine today

Mine might be a couple of days

*cracks whip*

Anyway, got four of them now, thanks!

there's no maximum track length is there

haha oh boy

you see me, i've got my magic pie

Can I have until Tuesday morning?

You people and your extended deadlines I tell ya. Aim for Friday please but the absolute deadline is next Friday, no further.

Mine will be done shortly. It's difficult to craft music that's "real" enough.

i can honestly say in making my song i truly explored my feelings for liam

likewise

Have sent mine now - I am on holiday so I didn't have a particularly great mic with me but I think it hopefully has come together in a way that nobody else but me will find amusing might be amusing

Just finished mine. I'll send it tomorrow !

Rock. We're up to six submissions now...
