Damn fine blues!

The tension in this is palpable from the first question. The quiver in the voice. The nakedness of the questions. "Often forget you understand." Hard to hear as just another blues song.

cool soulful serenade

wow. this song is so cool and delivered in just the right style. hats off to you, andrew!

Fine song, fine, fine song. I love your slight country feeling here, really true sounding. This really works for me.

fun lyrics, Vox, cool tune!

Does for me..... a little light, a little dark.....

A little Purple sounding! Pretty FN cool.

lol - the bass was an organ set to "hammer house of horrors", perhaps I overdid it! (The reverb on the vox is deliberately "chilly" as well) I wanted stark and lonely in the verses. But I also wanted comfort in the choruses - which is what the other instrumentation was intended to bring... but I've given up on that idea... it now sounds to me like the singer is incapable of bringing the comfort he offers, and he knows it... so I'll leave it them both to it :) And nope, I didn't steal the teddy bear... But mine were removed from me and given to my sister when I was about 8 years old... so I do know exactly what I'm talking about lol

odh is right; the bass feels a little sinister. Did you steal the teddy bear, Andrew?

Something slightly unsettling. Which is a good thing. Could be the treatment on the bass. I like...

"I dream you every Day" Some tunes dont need a lot of stuff. Focused and moving

I'd agree with G. Connor: it already is a very nice song as is. And the relative nakedness of it fits the story pretty well.

I'm reaching that conclusion too :) If I'd held it back and put the parts on that I was rehearsing that day it would have been fine... and possibly better... But I was trying them out today, and they seem surplus to requirements now! (Mrs R has got her way lol)

I like it. Why fill it up with more than you need. I think you captured it perfectly.

Wow this is awesome! Thanks for the comments on my tracks.. theres more on soundcloud if you like :) https://soundcloud.com/peterdonaghey

Lovely melody (and you carry it very well). Though I can 'hear' some more instrumentation and harmonies, this 'naked' version is not so shamed to be that way.

I love this song!

Nice lyrics and great voice dude.Good stuff

Very nice... Like something in a musical. The voice doesn't sound like Freddy Mercury but has the dramatic tension...

Like it. Good song, good performance all round - still love her vocals! Excellent recording/mix.

Wow... this is a stunner... a complete stunner.

Another excellent song/performance. Your voice, guitar, and songs just hit the spot for me.

This one's a bit special.

I'm gonna have to set aside some time to listen to this entire Lobster Man album. What have I been missing? Love the lead break on this one - right in yer face.

I've heard tell of this many times, but I have to admit I've never got round to listening to it before. Superb :-)

If you'd described this to me I'd have said it'll never work... ... but it does! It's one of my least favourite Beatles songs (and I'm a big Beatles fan), this has made me reconsider it as a song in itself. Nice one.

This is one of my all time favourite songs (though I've never heard The Band's version). Great cover - love the backing vocals, really effective.

Oh good grief, this is just fabulous. I've gotta go now, but I saw you getting a lot of comments last night, now I know why I'll be back check the rest out... This such a good song/performance/recording... Loved it.

Really enjoyed this. It started up after I was listening to something else, and I looked at 7:07 and I thought "oh dear"... But I never pressed stop! It kept my interest going all the way.

Nice one. The title dragged me in for a listen. Good song :-) And that MLC is a stunning guitarist.

Woo, this has something going for it. I'm listening in headphones, so the initial fizzy synth tones were a bit scary! I love the rhythm and the interweaving melodies. Really, really inventive stuff. On the second listen I almost felt like it was too short - so I had to listen one more time!

I'm ashamed to say I don't know much about The Cure - I was a blues-rocker by the time they emerged, I liked some of the singles and videos, but that was about it... I really like what you've got going on here, though.

You guys are off the map! :-) Loved this, you had me rolling on the floor.

Still love this one.

Yes.

Do you know T? I think this is the first live recording of yours I've ever listened to. You cut it live just as well. Great song too. lol at the compere at the end - "get off you f*cker there's more important folks here... can you wipe the mic down boys?" It's years since I've done it, but I remembers :-)

Ah... glad this one is here :-)

I was sure I'd commented this one... anyway, back for another go. Love it.

Yo T :-) I remember you talking about the project, but I don't remember hearing this. Fantastic project, but a cool piece of music anyway.
