DO YOU BELIEVE ?
Well, for one, i believe that i'm always destined to make a come back here on BLOGCATCHER with an opening track :)
Here's sharing a song from yesteryears by a pop diva that i simply adore for her personality as her voice.
Just chanced to hear her croon a favorite number of mine on World Space yesterday and i had to immortalize the song so i could keep coming back to it again and again and again....
Believe - CHER
TRIVIA:
Actually, there's more to this song, than just being my favorite.
Cher's 'Believe' (Dec 1998) was the first commercial recording to feature the audible side-effects of Antares Auto-tune software used as a deliberate creative effect. The (now) highly recognizable tonal mangling occurs when the pitch correction speed is set too fast for the audio that it is processing and it became one of the most over-used production effects of the following years and known more commonly as the 'Cher effect' !
It is said that Cher's Producer Mark Taylor added the effect to Cher's vocal simply as a lark and when Cher heard the results, she demanded that the effect remain in the song, and her original vocal be erased. When her record company requested it be removed, Cher responded, "Over my dead body!"
