Beautiful song Tom. It gave me a feeling of introspection. I get what the guest was saying. Very nicely done!

Thanks for the comments, Guest. A log cabin sounds lovely - I hope it is everything you hope it is.

Very nice. Building myself a log cabin so that I can stay there.

Thanks for listening and for your feedback, @TheProods. Calling this a Peanut Butter Cup is a good summation of my collaborations with DoktorDoktor. From a distance you might think we wouldn't be compatible, but, once you get past any initial reservations, you realize we make a surprisingly good combination, haha!

it's happening, isn't it? This is like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Great

Thanks for listening so closely, Steve! I was definitely going for something more emotional here, so it's cool that you caught that.

Beautiful song, and you put real feeling into it. Well done Tom!

Thanks, Steve! It's been really therapeutic to play around with these Sea Change songs and it's cool you're enjoying listening to that catharsis (not everyone would be so keen on listening to the more emotional stuff, so I appreciate you taking the time to listen!)

A bittersweet and emotional song, and you express it with real feeling Tom. Very nice.

Thanks @theProods! This was a fun collab with Dokdoktor, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Now you're cooking!

Thanks for listening to my Beck covers, Steve! I've been listening to a lot of his Sea Change album lately and I've set up a goal of learning the whole album. I've been pretty busy lately and so recording them has been a slower process than I had initially hoped, but I'm glad you have enjoyed the few songs I've posted so far! Thanks, as always, for your encouraging words!

Like the singing. Beck's songs are a bit melancholic. You perform this very well. Good job!

Nice version Tom. Tone of it sounds great. Suits your style.

Thanks for the kind words, Steve! These last three songs ("Golden Age," "Memory Lame," and "Therefore I Am") are all different kinds of songs for me and I wasn't sure how they'd be received, so I'm glad you liked them!

Lovely vocals. Well performed as usual Tom. I'm sure most of us can relate to this subject.

Another song, not sure who Jim is criticising again. Clever lyrics, and I think you deliver them simply and yet effectively. Good work!

Nice version Tom. Don't know the song or whether it's literally about another person, or religion, or what? It's sad, but I like it.

@sistersavage Thanks so much! I was kind of going for the sort of song you might listen to on your headphones in the dark -- so I'm glad it was received that way.

Smashed it. Great late night feel.

I've been pondering which part of this song to single out as my favorite, but what I think like more than anything is how well it all combines to be more than the sum of its parts. Great job, Steve!

@sistersavage Thanks so much! I was kind of going for the sort of song you might listen to on your headphones in the dark -- so I'm glad it was received that way.

Thanks for the kind feedback, Steve! This one was a bit of challenge as the chords are a bit obscure, but it was a fun one to record nonetheless.

Thanks again for offering the opportunity to collab on this song with you, Steve!

Fun stuff, Steve! This one really has an inspiring edge to it, kinda like a "We Will Rock You" by Queen.

Thanks for the kind feedback, Steve! I enjoyed playing around with lyrics to this one to suit the sentiments that were floating around in my head at the time, so I'm glad that it turned out suiting me 'cause that is what I was going for!

This is astonishingly good! I think you are being too humble in saying you *just* patch a few sounds together.

Thanks for the kind words, Steve! I'm glad you appreciated the backing vocals at the end of the song--I was trying to replicate a tension of ideas (and impulses) so I wasn't exactly sure how that part was going to be received. It's cool that you noted that part and thought it enhanced the song (which is what I was going for!)

Flawless -- you're really starting to hit your groove with songwriting, Steve!

It was tricky to figure out how I wanted to strum it because the Dawes version has several layers and that forced me to do my own direct version, which, to my surprise, ended up sounding better to your ears. High praise--thanks, Steve!

A nice Talking Heads-esque biting commentary on The Donald. I consider myself a guitarist first and so my ear is always initially drawn in that direction and I like what you have going on here on that instrument. I also think the drums, vocals, and bass are nicely intertwined and complement each other well. Another fav, Steve!

Thanks so much, Steve! The chorus was particularly tricky to pull off, but I'm reasonably happy with the way it turned out and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks, Bookey! Every passing year I grow in my appreciation for Elliott Smith. I recorded another song of his recently, so check it out if you like.

Thanks, as always, for all the kind words, Steve! I'm not a 100, though sometimes I feel that way, haha! I've spend the last two decades almost constantly listening to and learning about music. I don't have much of a "life" outside of school and music and so that's probably why my musical interests seems so varied.

Thanks @GregConnor!

Thanks, as always, for the encouragement, Steve! I thought about making this song longer, but I decided to take a page out of one of your books (cuz you are versatile enough to have many metaphorical books) by going with something short, sweet, and straight to the point. That said, next time I suspect I'll do something longer.

It's really impressive how you have so much going on here and yet it all fits together nicely. Def another one of yours that is a fav of mine!

Glad you loved it, Steve! I about strained my vocal chords singing it, but it was definitely worth it to do justice to such a classic.

Thanks, Proods! I actually tried to play and sing this one in a more understated way so I'm glad it still turned out good.

This is really awesome - my only complaint is that I wished I had heard it sooner! It would fit perfectly between Jeff Beck's "My Thing" and "So What" songs off his 2003 album, Jeff (which is his best album, imo). Excellent work, Steve!
