    "The Time Has Come" is a VideoSong, a new medium with 2 rules:
    1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
    2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).
    "The Time Has Come," by Jack Conte
    Lyrics:
    The time has come
    for all good men
    to sink or swim or die.
    The boats are broke
    and the bow is stuck,
    and the waves are crashing high.
    Oh! Wouldn't it be nice
    to have a bit more time?
    Yeah. Wouldn't it be nice
    to have a bit more time?
    The time has come
    for all good men
    to jump or float or fly.
    The cockpit cracked
    and the captain croaked
    and the wind is tearing by.
    Oh! Wouldn't it be nice
    to have a bit more time?
    Yeah. Wouldn't it be nice
    to have a bit more time?
    The time has come
    for all good men
    to want or wish or try.
    Our brains are blank
    and our bones are breaking
    and the years are blowing by.
    Oh! Wouldn't it be nice
    to have a bit more time?
    Yeah. Wouldn't it be nice
    to have a bit more time?

    @micalishis - I get this question a lot. Here's the answer! I've been collecting stuff for 10 years. My Aurora Hammond organ was $250 on craigslist. The upright piano that I'm playing in this video was $50 dollars on craigslist. My drum kit was pieced together from Ebay, craigslist, and unwanted stuff from guitar center. Yes, I have a lot of stuff, but I didn't get it all at once, and i look for good deals. Buy two things a year for ten years, and eventually you have 20 awesome things.

    Hi Jack, I've had clinical depression for over 20 years. The last few Years have been the most difficult as I rarely leave My house or socialize with friends. but a few days ago I suddenly started to feel hope again and the urge to start living life again. I can't put My finger on what has changed and I really don't care, what's important is I'm starting to feel happy again. I've been listening to this song every morning and have decided...THE TIME HAS COME FOR ME TO SWIM! :D Thanks Jack

    This song has haunted me for YEARS. Every time I listen to it I feel chills down my spine.
    The production is absolutely amazing. The arrangement is really interesting on many levels. A true genius.
    The only bad spot is the audio recording which echoes a bit for the solo singing parts.

    I think my heart would stop beating for a sec or two and a tear would come to my eye if I ever get the chance to buy your album and listen to it on a sunny day. I really love music... its stuff like this that makes my spirit hurt and make my nerves tingle because I can feel the music so much. Sadness... That under your skin pain that makes the tears well up in your eyes as you suffer with the joy of hearing something beautiful... and everything in you yells... YOU CAN DO IT TOO!!
    But you don't.

    Jack, you're a huge inspiration to creative musicians such as myself. Too often I find myself stuck and as a result I let too many great ideas go stale. It's partly because I hardly have any gear (not a huge deal) but mostly because I just don't MAKE time to be creative. Seeing your vids and hearing your music is just awesome. Maybe I can't be as innovative with these videosongs as you are, but I can still make some kickass tunes. Keep it up man! Greetings from Canada

    Jack, I would absolutely love to see all of those different vocal "Woos" separated to show all the different harmonies, and then brought back together. -I know you have like NEGATIVE time to do something like that, but still. Your work continues to be great. Thank you once again for this album; it is both comforting and entertaining.

  • @Jackconte
    @Jackconte  13 лет назад

    @NeutralNewt - yessir. i wanted the verse vocals to sound distant and roomy and i wanted the chorus vox to sound close and full. the effect would have been more pronounced, except that in the end, i chose to add reverb to the chorus vox because i felt like the chorus needed to be washy and huge. it kind of counter-acts my original intention of moving closer then further away, but i had to go with it because it's what i wanted to hear.
