todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Fantastic. Could you do one more but try and sound a little bit bitter?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | No, wait a minute. Try less bitter.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Fantastic. That's really super. Now, just to be sure, could you do it again but a bit more intense?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Less intense?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | More purple.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Green?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | A touch less unguent.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Perfect! That's the one. Could you do it again just to make sure?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | No, no. Sorry. That wasn't it after all.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Oh God, yes! That sounds EXACTLY like what we want. Could you do it again the exact same way but totally different?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Try stretching out the "s" in "clients".
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clientssss. | Nope. That won't work after all. How about "This"?
todd ellis wrote: | thisssss business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Blech! No way. What a stupid idea. Why did you even take it in that direction? Just say it normally.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Good stuff. We're loving it. Now try something completely different please.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Could you add more happy?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Even more happy?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | A bit more happy.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients.  | No, no... not really a happy sentiment I suppose. Could you emphasize the word "perfect"?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | A little more emphasis on it?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Hmmm... try less.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Now try saying it angrily.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Mmmkay. Yeah. That's great. But a little less anger maybe.
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Can we hear the purple version back again?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Could you try something similar, but maybe a little less purple?
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. | Gadzooks! THAT'S IT!!! Thank you!!! Absolutely brilliant! I cannot even imagine it sounding more perfect than that! ...now could you say it exactly the same way and we'll make sure the engineer is recording this time.
That's OK. Take a minute if you want. In the meantime, I'll just have a listen to the very first take
todd ellis wrote: | this business would be perfect if not for the clients. |
Yeah. The first take it is. Thanks Todd!
cheers,

LOL, Andrew! Kudos, my man, kudos!
