When You Least Expect It
And you're out to dry
And its all too hectic
Thats when it comes x 2
And it feels electric
And you feel alive
Cos when you least expect…
Thanks for the encouraging words, Alex! There are plenty of options out there for making 8-bit sound; the one I used is a free application called FamiTracker, from famitracker.shoodot.net. More popular is the cartridge LSDJ for the original Gameboy, but that costs money and I love my freeware! Excepting the one copy of Fell Plot I sent to RPM, I don't have any of my music in print so I can't really make any trades, but I'll stick around and listen to some of your songs. :)
Let me introduce to you
Every woman child and man
The place I did my growing up
Raised by grandma's hand
I think you'll find
That folks are kind
They're sure to ask you in
Enter the warmth
Close the door
And my story will begin…
Well I been playing the blues for so long
Kinda feel like playing jazz x 2
I dig the random instrumentation.
Play this in eight over three and a half
I been playing the blues for so long, make me feel like tryna rap x 2
I think I'll call…

I heard a story about you
I didnt want it to be true
But it felt like it might
You, well it was all about you
and how the things that you do
Seem strangely undone
And life doesnt help out the weak
A lifetime tends to bring you some…

It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…

HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…
Of out tonight for a drink with a few friends but not til 9 so i thought i'd try to write a song and i think i have . i think i'll revisit it later to re-do but for now it will have to do. Hope you enjoy!! A heart-breaker for a Friday night…
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Meg Radley on vocals
way to go
great escape
such a clever girl you are
made the grade
change the course
all because of what she said
climb up the ladder
release the lion trapped inside
all our thoughts…
from the album 'ZERO'
featuring Tess Savigear on vocals
as you wish said the boy
to the girl with the sparkling eyes
so it goes, so they say
he was taken from her that day
and her deep blue eyes went silent
just another sad tale, so sorry…
Really all comes together here. Better of a song, awe inspiring vocal delivery, perfectly measured production. The outcome is incredibly moving.As much as I adore eternity (and I do) I think this just pips it for me as my favourite Tess flavoured one. Esp. The emotional ending. Contender for fav Angie fights crime song ever
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Meg Radley on vocals
wait a day
might as well stay, awhile
here with me
where the breeze, blows
just say now
time grows shorter
then we dream
awake a scream, out loud
leaving leaves a hole
kicks around…
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Meg Radley with Tess Savigear on vocals
tic, of the clock marches forward
wait, for the bell to chime noon
patience, I can't tell when it's coming
think, that it has to be soon
wasting all my time counting…
Megs voice is a real find for me. Absolutely love the tone.. And this song really really suits it. Hope to hear lots more of this voice. Got bits of nico.. I think that's what I pick up. So beautiful set against teases voice. Such a beautiful song Brent. Incredible
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Tess Savigear on vox
seems like I felt this way before
but my memory is not to be trusted
so many things flashing through my brain
was it real or a dream or something else
you're staring at me like a criminal…
Recorded Friday, December 13th, 2013. Drums were generated using a Yamaha E313 keyboard. Vocals and all other instruments are my fault. Lyrics and composition by Stevie Wonder.
My version of a Neil Young song.
"Rockin' In The Free World"
There's colors on the street -- Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet -- People sleepin' in their shoes
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
There's a lot…
Part of the Sunny, Sorta project.
Music & Lyrics written by Angie Fights Crime.
there's a bomb in the back
as we head down the tracks
but we can only go so fast
there's a man on our trail
pack of dogs with no tails
this kind of excitement…
performed by Randy Johnson.
from the album "Sunny, sorta..."
sunny sorta, in a twisted way
to see you praying all together
with your greedy little eyes
all staring at a prize
that is so very far away
sunny sorta on this ungrateful day…

is it funny? do I care what you say
(thinking hardly matters)
it’s not who you are at the end of the day

you’re worse than a child so please go away…
from the album "the Hardest Blow" featuring vocals & samples from Barney of Vivian Circle
I’m just singing for the war, inside me
Four thousand soldiers dead, maybe more, maybe more
It’s hard to read between the lines, so blurry now…
from the new album "the Hardest Blow" featuring vocals from Ashley Reynolds.
I asked the man is he blown away
He said "son, not today,
But that's ok man, it's just ok"
Just ok
So I tried harder, I tried so hard
To kill that man with my…
I have loved this song for eons. Any time I've found myself in a cover band I've tried to get it into the set list but I have never once succeeded.
I've never actually recorded a cover before. Prior to buying a Strat I had no desire to, but…
I got up nice and early this morning thanks to Seb ....so i got the acoustic out and came up with this one ....Don't ask me why....
the innocence of a lie
the reason behind the why
the sigh of regret
at that moment of death
why
why
oh…
