never need to convince myself
I always knew
surrounded by you
I am at peace where I am
can you say it too
the past is a clue
stop waiting, for things to change
just change, anything that you want
change, anything that you…
This same old story,
Boy loses girl and can’t move along
Stuck in a rut and moping around
You’re not gonna fix it writing a song
Stand in place, start the chase
Turn and slap you right in the face
How long, something better comes along…
Another day of broken promises
Like all the other days before
You start each morning with such optimism
That lasts until your feet hit the floor
That’s when things begin to fall apart
And the rain starts to pour from above
There’s no hope…
When i was 15 i’d, had enough
Got all my things and, packed them up
Flipped off the whole world, i was so tough
Little did i know things would get so rough
Got so excited to be, on my own
Finally a place that i, could call home
Little…
I completely agree
That it’s harder to fall than leave
You said before you let me kiss you
It’s a wonder that we
Can still fondly remiss, that kiss
The miracle of the red dress
20 years from today
When i’m lying in my grave
My face…
When i was 15 i’d, had enough
Got all my things and, packed them up
Flipped off the whole world, i was so tough
Little did i know things would get so rough
Got so excited to be, on my own
Finally a place that i, could call home
Little…
You crave the sea, the oceans far away
And further every day
You watch the sky, and see the birds all fly
Towards their destiny
But where are they going?
And when can we leave?
You’re climbing up, the mountain’s summit
Just a few more…
sometimes a man needs finger snaps.

it's all you know
so why don't you show me
just how it's done

the way that you lie
mostly to yourself
as if you're someone else

these things that you do to
simply remain
not breaking ground…

kiss me softly in the evening light
and like the breeze, i'll be blown away
linger longer if you have the time

farewell my concubine
there's no need to get the door

No explanations left to give apologies over
She wanted more than the story, but nobody told her
I hear the insane are hardly worth the medication
But she'd like the story just the same, for when she gets older
It's not the end…
Some may say that given time, every one messes up and thinks of no one else,
Sins their sin, their selfish acts.
But you I would have sworn were different, a faithful heart.
Not without fault, but I never thought you would cut me like that.

i'm working on my cover, it may take me a week or 2, it's complicated song, mostly the lyrical delivery, which i don't want to change. everything else though, has got to go.
My first RPM cover of 2011. This one is "Like This" by The Missed Connections. I seem to have taken a darker turn with the song than Amelia did. It wasn't intentional, but it seems to be what I do when I cover her songs.

If I scream louder
Could you understand

Would it ease your fears

My take on Gumbo's Keep Your Eye On The Spot, one of many excellent tracks from his RPM2011 album 'Cat's Moustache'. It's something of a departure from the original, though I was trying to retain an element of the gospel so hopefully its soul…

A slightly destructive children's song... But I suspect that many of you have tried some of the things mentioned.

i don't know if i ever told Tess that's her sampled vox ringing out through the whole tune. the funny thing was she took my song out of 5, and i put hers into 5. we're silly like that.
"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…

Comments on angie fights crime's stuff
Dang.
Oh, this is OUTSTANDING.
this mix is outstanding.
More listens kids. this is wonderful music. Thanks Angie Fights Crime.
Gettin' Sunny Sorta :)
Hey man This is off the charts. Should be on the charts. Chiefs look good though :)
Jangly and catch as heck. Awesome middle section.
Love this, melodic and melancholy. Great solo. Quite Cure-like too, reminds me of "Numb."
Tight! Love this groove.
You turned my song on it’s head in the most delightful way! I think I like your version better than my own.
It works!
This is about as spectacularly arranged an album as is humanly possible. Dang, man.
LOVING this arrangement.
Niiiiiiiice groooooooove.
This album is already feeling "Tour-de-force-y"
Dang, brother. This is OUTSTANDING.
Agree with Will and Andy - a fabulous, eclectic, moody page turner of an album. One to return to again and again.
Anthem!
Awesome - absolutely love the arrangement and vocal layers in the chorus lift it to a new level.
Bitter sweet overload, my bitter sweet overlord.

it's kinda already an electonic version isn't it? i don't care, do what you want man, it's your cover.
i'm working on my cover, it may take me a week or 2, it's complicated song, mostly the lyrical delivery, which i don't want to change. everything else though, has got to go.
nicely done.
i love this.
I'm in awe of your mixing skills, you should produce all of my albums please. I love the vibe on this one.
wow, this is different.
it's really about my anger management problems.
i actually had the volume turned pretty low to record this, it sounds big because of my huge nuts.
phat!
this song is perfect, but i'm going to cover it anyways.
NICE.
I'm a tool, I forgot all about this. Sounds GREAT!
what makes this song stand out even more is that it's about me. :(
this is perfect.
smokin something alright
i don't know if i ever told Tess that's her sampled vox ringing out through the whole tune. the funny thing was she took my song out of 5, and i put hers into 5. we're silly like that.
i played this in college. fun.
what a weird song, what was i thinking?
it's no joke.
i agree, it passes the honda stereo test.
