    Trying to stay true to the original tuning. I found my bass to match at A436. It may not be perfect, but please do not use A440.

    "Little Lies" is a song by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac from their fourteenth studio album Tango in the Night (1987). It was written by band member Christine McVie and her then-husband, Eddy Quintela, with lead vocals performed primarily by McVie, although the chorus of the song featured brief solo passages by Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. The song was released in August 1987 by Warner Bros. Records, as the third single from Tango in the Night.

    On its release, the single reached number 1 for four weeks on the US Adult Contemporary chart and number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1987. To date, it is their most recent top-ten hit in the United States. The single also reached number 5 on the UK Singles Chart. "Little Lies" continues to be played on radio stations as a classic hit of the late-1980s, along with "Everywhere" and "Seven Wonders", both of which are from Tango in the Night. "Little Lies" was also accompanied by a music video, filmed on a farm, in and around its rustic buildings and fields.

    The single was also available on the 12" single format, featuring an extended dance version, a dub version and its B-side, "Ricky", a non-album track penned by McVie and Buckingham. A limited 12" picture disc was also released in the United Kingdom, and it was the first Fleetwood Mac single to be issued on the cassette single format.

    New backing vocals submitted. dan00075 I added FX only in the one that does harmonies in the chorus. I left the other 3 dry, as they are the overlaping phrases in verse and chorus, so u can add the FX or reverb needed to make more overlaping effect. I held the phrase longer in those phrases but depending on the effect I guess it will do more overlaping. As you can see, the video where I added FX myself is the blurry in the beginning, again. I tried to find out what is happening when editing the video, but I can not find the answer.

    Excellent tracks Marga! Thank you so much! I edited them offline to increase volume and add some video fade filters. I will work on the final synth track over the next few days and then we can complete this one! :)

    Thanks for your patience everyone. The collab is coming along great. The video issues have been fixed (thanks to Dennis). We are waiting on a couple more vocal tracks and I need to add a synth part as well as some work on the mix and then we'll be done. Everyone sounds great so far.

    @Margarex: Thanks Marga, but I don't think that is going to work. I have asked Dennis for help.
