I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word

I can feel your heartbeat and you didn't even say a word

Oh, I know, pretty woman that your love can be heard

You can feel my heartbeat, too

As David explains in the following excerpt from the book “C’mon Get Happy…Fear and Loathing on the Partridge Family Bus” by David Cassidy & Chip Deffaa, his voice on the first two of The Partridge Family records, his voice was altered.

“Wes had some problem with the way I naturally sounded. He had me double-track vocals (the way Neil Sedaka had so often done) to give my voice added pop-ness. And by altering the tape speed, he was able to raise the pitch of my voice a half-tone above what it actually was, so that on records I sounded a little younger, lighter than in real life.”

The following two recordings highlight this. The first recording is a small part of the original recording from 1970 LP “The Partridge Family Album”. The second recording has been provided by John Gomolka who altered the original track to better reflect David’s true voice.

"I Can Feel Your Heartbeat" - Part of original recording.

"I Can Feel Your Heartbeat" - altered to reflect David’s true voice
