Vocal freakouts!

I've just started seriously looking at the vocals on these recordings. Once the basic track is down, I put a vocal line which is a roughly recorded vocal track to show me just where everything is put together in the song. It's like a tracing line that I can work around.

The tragic thing is, because I'm so relaxed when I'm doing those temporary vocal guides, they're some of my best singing, but generally, they can't be used because I haven't recorded them properly.

Now I'm beginning the the real vocal line recording process, & I'm stuffing everything up as I go along, a plane goes over, the dog comes in and trips over a lead, not to mention my having a coughing fit from my nervous dry throat..yikes. It's a mess. The pressure I tells ya is getting to me!
