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!

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!)
You me and infinity
Time slows down and then we see
Hands of God and synecdoche
No ground
Rendezvous and longing stares
Apocalyptic, no more pairs
Epileptic swirling flares
Deconstruct us
Doctors of divinity
Lives within you and me…

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!
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!
@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.
My light-hearted take on a serious issue.
Over- prescription of powerful and addictive drugs, and the unknown and (to some) worrying relationship between doctors and the drug companies.

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.
Thanks, Colleen! I'm surprised that people are enjoying this one because it is so casually done. I guess it goes to show that simplicity is often the best route.
@doktordoktor - Thanks! I know my voice isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I appreciate the feedback. Keeps me motivated to keep playing, recording, and singing.
Thanks so much for stopping by to listen and provide encouraging words, @peppermintsky! I feel like you've been listening to my stuff longer than almost everyone here, so I feel honored that you keep coming back to listen.
@castratibrothers: thanks for the feedback. I tend not to notice if my vocals are too low in the mix (unless it's super obvious) so it helps to have a fresh set of ears point such things out. And I'm glad to hear you liked the lyrics -- I encourage you to check out the original version by The Verve Pipe because their version is far superior to mine!
@slkrell, @greg, and @theproods: Thank you so much! I thought of a special someone when I was singing it which maybe explains why it resonates. Since you like it, you might check out Brandi Carlile's version too.
Comments on Tom's stuff
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.

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!

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.

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.
Comments made by Tom
It's like Syd Barrett joined Guns N' Roses for a day to rewrite (and sing) their song "Coma." Cool stuff!
Tapping my toe to the rhythm guitar on this one - you're definitely onto something here!
Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!
Liking the guitar on this one!

Sounds like something off an 80s John Carpenter soundtrack. Very cool!

@Guest: Thanks for the kind words; it's always a welcomed sight when people take the time to listen and comment on the stuff I post here.
@TheXinkies: Thanks for the encouragement! Joining a band would be great. Maybe one day...
@ColleenDillon, @peppermintsky, @TheProods: Thank you for taking the time to listen and provide the kind feedback! Much appreciated!
@peppermintsky Your tone is one of the best on this site, so your words of encouragement are definitely a confidence booster! Thank you!
@TheProods: Thanks! Sometimes it's nice therapy to just give a good yell in a song.
