It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…

Another wonderful track , I still think I can Here shades of Roy Harper in your music , and in my book that is a good thing , that isn't taking anything away from your songwriting , you are still very original

A cover of Justin Currie's Sleep Instead of Teardrops. Recorded 2010.
It has always been one of my favourite Del Amitri songs. I was strumming away at it one day and my missus said I should record it...
@ facemask - there's time yet! I hope... lol
There's a LOT of competition though... and to be honest, I only really started saying what I wanted when I gave up the idea of becoming famous!!

Love the first section, and then when the second section cuts the phrase down I'm thinking "but I loved that widdly bit!!" ... but really quickly I'm in the groove and digging it and I've forgotten it until I listen to the track again. I've listened three times now and it has the same effect on me every time. Mighty cool.

Another tune exhumed from the past... 1984 to be precise. A 15 year-old angst-ridden vocalist wrote some words that went something like "Late at night... the shadows... creep across my wall". Happily, the song is musically much stronger than the…
The thing is though, "Late at night... the shadows... creep across my wall" are really good lyrics! Feel no shame, the angst-ridden 15 year-olds knew what they were doing! lol .... Cool sounds, looking forward to the vocals.

Well I'm down
I am falling to the ground…
Awww yeah... very tasty. Loved the title when I saw the notification - was wondering how you'd treat it... it's just wonderful. Cool song, and the performance/recording is smooth and lively at the same time. Love the groove, and the playing from everyone is perfect - like a coiled spring but with great restraint... YEAH!
Do you know where the title comes from?
One of the Disney Parks (I don't remember which one), as part of it's Covid-19 re-opening plan, suggested to patrons that screaming on a ride is a good way to spread the coronavirus, so instead they ask…
Oh yeah LOVE those guitars... the drums, bass and guitars just gel so gorgeously. And that title makes for a superb chorus. Makes a lot more sense to me here in a song than it does as a theme park motto!! lol
Round two of what?
I'd tell you if I had even the slightest idea.
I'm pretty pleased with this one. Well, I don't completely hate it at least. I think it could have benefited from some rehearsing, which during 50/90 is asking a lot…
Nice one... I do like that "Here comes round two" hook... And I've just looked up 50/90... you're a crazy man!!! Crumbs, a song every two days for 3 months solid!! I could probably write the songs, but I could never record them in that time frame! Anyways - mighty cool, I shall keep listening and cheer you on from the sidelines.
Do you ever have an idea / song that you just need to get out of you and recorded, even though it's so rough that you'll want to re-do it over and over again? This is one of those for me....
Drive Until The Signal Dies

What a sad tale. I love your voice and your diction is perfect.

Great tune.

These two, and having them as the soundtrack to reading up about what exaptation is... wow, very thought provoking...
Oh yes, very cool.
Cool and interesting sounds... and once again I learn a new word... Definitely listening to 2 now!

That's really cool, like it.

Woo, yeah, nice one. Love the imagery.
Relaxing vibes.

Oh yes, we like those Black and White movies too. Good to hear some more H R Music. Love the relaxed vibe of this one.
Oh yeah, powerful song. Love the imagery of "Drive until the signal dies".
