    Fitting the original line/rythmn with the new one:

    In -------- all ----- the ----na----tions -- of -- the --- earth

    Strewn -- o'--------er ---- all ---- the --- na---tions -- [?]

    That's where I was coming from.

    How about adding this verse...

    Billions and billions of bodies,

    piled up in Arab lands,

    and millions more in China,

    where Witness work is banned.

    Controversial yes, but it might make people think!

    It's good, but the original only has 3 verses.

    No, I mean as a replacement for an existing verse?

    Or I could play with the music and extend it somehow? I'm good at that sort of thing.

    great job Diana, your very clever. AnnOmaly is correct, their is extra phrasing at the end of the verses.

    here is my small improvement for 3rd verse:

    Billions and billions of corpses,

    Struck down both far and near.

    God's cloud of radiation

    Cleared them all outta here.

    And as they keep on rotting --

    Mountains of putrid men, (hold mennnnn with higher note)

    Patient, we wait on God's word ---> Patiently(Pay-Shant-Lee), waiting (Way-Ting) for God's New Scrolls

    On how to dispose of them.

    Ann... I did notice the typos after I posted it. I did mean strewn..and befall. I am a lousy proofreader.

    I would love to see this done on You Tube, Cedars.

    Don't forget to mention me in the credits on the video.

    Me too, all I need is a singer!

    Have you already done a backing track, cedars?

    ya know - there are some interesting possibilities. If someone created a basic back track, several of us could contribute vocals or other pieces via Audacity.

    AnnOMaly - no I've not created the backing track yet, but I could do it for multiple verses very quickly without too much bother. All I need is a singer - or singers!!

    memochan13 - I love your idea! It could be a true Bob Geldof / Band Aid multi-singer project. Rather than "Heal The World", this would be "Kill The World"!!

    Again, I'm happy to produce it. I just need singers.
