FAWM: "You'll never know my pain! (Comments first song)"

You'll never know my pain! (Comments first song)

Liner Notes

This song is for the #CommentsFirst challenge (https://write.fawm.org/forums/3025).

Fool that I am, I took ALL the comments and tried to incorporate them! I didn't quite finish with the glockenspiel, but very nearly. The growl at the end IS Vinnie. I recorded him while we were playing a tug-of-war game. That's his play growl. His guardian growl is much more ferocious!
So...
@youraveragejoe - Monkey almost screaming.
@dreamscuba - It's actually a vibraphone, so a posher glockenspiel?
@beto - Not my doorbell - it sends Vinnie crazy when it rings, so this is a sample.
@esc4p3 - There's only a few bars of 11/4, but they're in there.
@beej - The main bass arp that starts the song and reappears a couple of times is REALLY 17 layers of bass! See the screendump. It was the only way I could think to do it without it getting too muddy.
@beacon - Vinnie loved the game that led to him being recorded.
@ayeahmur - Tuba through the nearest thing I had to a Big Muff pedal was quite interesting!
@kayo - I thought that poem would never see the light of day!
@mahtowin - Celtic harp and Gaelic lyrics just for you. 😃

Well. There you have it, Now I need to lie down in a darkened cave for at least a week.
