Title: I just wasn't made for these times - Lyrics Confirmation
Post by: adam78 on November 14, 2011, 10:23:52 AM
Hi all,

Can anyone confirm for my own sanity that the backing vocals during this song sing "People I know don't wanna be where I'm at", underneath the "Sometimes I feel very sad" & "Ain't found the right I can put my heart and soul into" section.

Thank you. I can't find confirmation of this anywhere and it's driving me nuts. It's so low in the mix I want to be sure i'm hearing the right thing. I bet I sound like I only heard pet sounds yesterday....

Other than attributing a Brian line to Mike, I believe a post (http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/archive/index.php/t-16966.html) from the Hoffman forums has it:

Quote from: Andreas
The following is sung during the chours of "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times":

1. Sometimes I feel very sad. (Brian)
2. Cuando sere? Un dia sere. (In English: When will it be? One day it will be.)
3. Ain't found the right thing I can put my heart and soul into. (Mike)
4. People I know don't wanna be where I'm at. (Brian, falsetto)

Perfect! Thank you! Funny thing about the 4th line is that he's only falsetto for half of it, and then follows the lead for the second half, creating the effect of a extra tracked vocal. I personally think that's quite unlike him. You'd almost expect him to follow with another harmony instead. Sounds great though and thanks again.
