Without Hands (Perfection)
Verse One
It’ll never snow here
In this quiet little town
even winter brings
a green green ground
still stranger yet
in his monolithic place
so delicate
with scars on his face
Chorus
All the words you…
Paisley Tears
Verse One
Awake to the sound of broken glass I know,
It’s far too real
A wispered word could spark a fight
We learn to play so still
In Shadows hiding from the light
Children against thier will
Chorus
But I’m more than…
Transparent Zipperfoot (title meaning at bottom if you want to read TLDR:)
Verse One
This life in focus
I feel it has no meaning, its purpose ever fleeting
And how we get through
This world and aspdcts thereof
only through words and thier…
Love the story behind the title - I've got songs like that too. One of the reasons I am SO MUCH of a one man band is because of bad experiences with bands. Cool song.
Blue Skies
Verse One
I try to imagine, a sky too blue
Your hearts older, but mine ages too
I turn to wisper, you've lost the war
Holding to everything, you've lost
Chorus
And we're all to blame
Holding your fame to favour
All your…
Kisses Goodnight
Verse One
After Goodbyes and all,
We’re now on our way
We’re leaving here for now
Cold hands, spin me around
Eyes lock and innocence becomes
My eyes
PreCH
The photographs
Still frames in my mind
Forged memories…

I gotta be honest. I had this on in my headphones jamming out while working and felt like I was listening to spotify. The breakdown on "Without Hands" caught my attention and I remembered I was listening to an RPM all recorded in one month! That says a lot for your production I think. Bravo. Look forward to hearing next years!
Smiles Not Fading
Verse One
Called in content in all of this
all the world has past me by
Outraged by fear and holding on
Still I've done nothing wrong
PreCH
Taking all of this, all away
Breathing although
You’ll, never feel awake…

Tight! The guitar tone in the solo section is dynamite. Thanks for all the kind words on our page btw. Means a lot for a debut album! Grats on 20 yrs of records!

Verse One
How did we get to this place
in our lives where we hate each other
how could you be so far away from me
I’ll never understand
With you by my side
We could have been so great so perfect now
Chorus
And how the world can be so…

Lyrics for the bridge
Logically there's room for all questions
Though the answers aren't all known,
Objectivities the myth of plenty,
Who doubt His truth within their soul.

“Homesick” was recorded and mixed on February 21-25, 2025.
First half of "Homesick" was written and demo'ed on the evening of 8/10/2023. Second half of "Homesick" was written on 2/21/2025. This version of "Homesick" was recorded and mixed…
I decided to try a few different things this year for RPM. This is the single (along with a b-side to make a playlist) I'm using to show I completed RPM. All told I had six songs and could have listed an EP, but the songs all need a bit more…
“Wrapped Up” was written, recorded, and produced in 12/19/2024 - 12/22/2024, for the December 2024 REM Challenge (via RPM Challenge).
I stole the chords from "Soul Glo" in the movie Coming To America. Nile Rodgers can sue me if he wants…
“Summer Rain” was written, recorded, and produced on July 23, for the July 2024 REM Challenge (via RPM Challenge).
Written in five minutes. Recorded in 10 minutes (used take #3). Added additional instrumentation and mixed in about 45 minutes…
“Nothingness” was written, recorded, and produced on May 31, for the May 2024 REM Challenge (via RPM Challenge).
It was done out of desperation to have something submitted for this month's REM Challenge. It is terrible!
I might be warming up, turn me over
But the spinning wheels are stuck, on the shoulder
I lost the day
In a trade I lost my soul to the devil
In a fair enough bargain, it's on the level
For the pay
While I stare at brakelight eyes…
I've got a frakentele... and it is my current goto guitar... an't nothin wrong with a giter made from parts of other failed projects...
great tune, just great.
RPM. Month of concessions. I had lots of ideas, and they all seemed to fall apart. Time was not in abundance. Glad this was a leap year, for me to squeeze this out in a few hours after work.
Thrown around town
Wind in your face
Picking up discards, push handcarts
In this town
Jump overboard
You're pushed overboard
There clearly is a difference: you're flotsam lost or jetsam cold
Jump overboard
You're pushed overboard…
“My Butterfly” was recorded and mixed very quickly from 5/7/23 to 5/11/23, for May’s 30 Day Songs challenge (30daysongs.com).
“My Butterfly” was also submitted to May’s REM Challenge (via RPM Challenge).
“My Butterfly” written by W. Ng.
The juxtopation of these two songs is perfect, the ugliness of the first intro of harsher nature into a neatly wrapped tune of beautiful melody.
Coming into My Butterfly that feels like something Smith should have done in the first place. The completion of the thought from old to new is a wonderful idea.
Great job Wilsun! --- *SORRY! *DR* Wilsun!
“The Caterpillar” was recorded and mixed very quickly from 5/7/23 to 5/11/23, for May’s 30 Day Songs challenge (30daysongs.com).
"The Caterpillar" written by R. Smith/L. Tolhurst, originally by The Cure.
Tim played and sang everything

Wow, this is really cool! I love the faster tempo, makes the song feel way more alive! The solo and drum programing is way better then my original. Thank you Brent!
Yacht rock.
Every time I see your smile
I feel like I’ve come home
And every time you stay a while
Is the best day that I’ve known
You’re the one that lights my way
Brings brightness to my day
And I just have to say
Don’t want it…
Everyone loves a tribute to The Cure
I’m sitting here in the dark , Thinking how we fell apart
I can’t shake the feeling of your touch
Remembering the way you smiled, And how you said you’d stay a while
But now you’re gone and I’m here all…
Your backing vocals on this album remind me of something that I cannot quite put my finger on. I like them a lot. I think you have actually done more with less this year in the BGV department. That solo was borderline Just like Heaven... but then again, you said you were doing the Cure and the Cure you did.
I don't even know you anymore.
You open your mouth, the words slip out
I’m shocked by what I hear
The differences couldn’t be more clear
Same scene, different views
With our eyes and on the news
And I’m not sure what to do
I don’t…
Over the course of the album, you seem to have some pent up aggression toward some one... Ooh chimes! sorry ADD... The addition of the left guitar in the second chorus is killer! All of the layers in the end are wonderful!
Sometimes you listen to a Peter Murphy song and then ask ChatGPT to help you write a song. Sometimes you end up with this. You wouldn't believe the lyrics I left out.
Goths on the beach, all dressed in black,
Heading for the waves, and…
Super interesting concept going into this one. I basically have no other words.
Its good? Its weird? Its perfectly constructed?
I think the only thing it is missing is a 12 string and maybe it is already on in there...You really let loose in those last choruses and it is awesome... more of that please.
Comments on A Beautiful Scene's stuff
A powerful set of songs, and a really good listen, well done.
Woah. Powerful stuff. Didn't need the meaning (or I didn't need it), I didn't get the details but I got the point - really moving.
Love the story behind the title - I've got songs like that too. One of the reasons I am SO MUCH of a one man band is because of bad experiences with bands. Cool song.
Powerful stuff
Rocking!
I gotta be honest. I had this on in my headphones jamming out while working and felt like I was listening to spotify.

Mhm. Yup. This is great.

That hits the spot
Excellent Album!
Good rockin' tune!
Well done. Cool rocking song. BTW, thanks for listening to my songs.
Agree with (WilSun, I assume?) sounds real good now! Any RPM '23? Thanks btw!
Are you English?
Love this. The pulsating...
Is that all you? Great vocal...
Great production! Such an emotional song! Great vocal mix. I'd like to hear a bit more of the lead vocal.
Sounds great already, demo or not. Amazing vocals!
This is TIGHT. Dang.
Digging this track.
Comments made by A Beautiful Scene
Great track Wilsun! You’ve captured such a raw and relatable feeling with this song!
Ah, a song that is well recorded and speaks volumes of truth! Well done Tim!
Good times. Good times indeed.
Love it. Yes, it is bad. But You committed in the performances making it still great!
Short and sweet! ...and happy? I like proto punk Wilsun! Happy Birthday! - 8/1/2024
Dark and dramatic! Love this Wilsun! Celebrate the little things, desperation or not, this track is fantastic!
Jarrett, this song just gets better every time I listen to it. I have it on my reoccurring spotify playlist and I simply love it!
I've got a frakentele... and it is my current goto guitar... an't nothin wrong with a giter made from parts of other failed projects... great tune, just great.
Interesting. Clever and interesting!
Hol.Lee.Crap. This is absolutely fantastic! I feel like Brian Wilson after hearing Elenore Rigby..
That was astonishing!

Great job Wilsun! --- *SORRY! *DR* Wilsun!
There is a bold move in purposely have dissonance be the intro of a song. You are nailing the Robert Smith.
So very tranquil and lovely. Love what you did with this Mark!
This sounds absolutely phenomenal!
Wow, this is really cool! I love the faster tempo, makes the song feel way more alive! The solo and drum programing is way better then my original. Thank you Brent!
Nice and gentle way to end the album. Well done as usually good sir.
