really like the mix of the raw chug and the backing vocal woo type bits on this one. Tone of your vocal is an asset too, and you can really hear it on this one. A very natural advantage that! Like the more speaky part especially.
this is a song that came from the pain of dealing with idiots that just dont get it on a daily basis. newest mix tries to deal with vocal vs instruments imbalance.
theres alot of idiots out there to write about! I often feel lucky to have music to vent or else I dont know where I'd be.
Really catchy melody here. Think that ones gonna still be with me come tea time
Sassy Nation version!
Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…
Well, who do think came down the cellar last night... Yep! you guested it, Charlie Sheen, he was none too happy. He should have been if the girls with him were anything to go by. He'd come to talk to Elvis about handling the Yes men and how he…

The (mostly) true story of my friend DAVe and his quest to finish college.
You laid down the challenge
You said you want to hear a song about a donkey again
Well, I'm here to tell you
I have a little story about my friend
He put himself…
The story of a workplace experience. And an ultimate fighting match.

Hey there Mr. Flashy Pants
Hey there voice of thunder
As you lie there flat on…
Chester Arthur was the president
But no one remembers him
What about you?
He served a term with no vice president
And no one resident
To tell him what to do
He came to office by a bullet's grace
Garfield lost his place
And Arthur took…
A true story about some of my odd dreams
If the world's strongest man
Could hold the world in the palm of his hand
Would he crush us all into dust?
As a way to punish us
These are the kind of things
That seem to occupy me
If a giant…
This one started as a the title line while driving in my car. All I had was the line and it's melody. I built the song around that about 6 months later. The lyrics are self explanatory.
beautiful song and great performance. i'm a fox. ironicly just lost my uncle gary. yes gary fox. weird. great rpm . i was blown away. incredible guitar parts and your vocal was spot on.
It's about a few folks, some known, some known to me. I liked the chunkiness of the chord that starts it, but wanted to do something a little more 'spacey' than a pure rock number. It's all true too.
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
Top Of The Pops circa 1972! Remember when all those bands in the early 70's where adding synth to every song but the lyrics meant something (sometimes)? Pure excitement, pure bubblegum, pure fun. Well, this is my offering and thanks to all of…
Comments on Dirty Spirits's stuff
Ultra cool! Dusty, rustic spook. Vocals are amazing. And the guitars make me want to spark up! ...and that's exactly what I'm a gonna do.
A hint of the Doors on this one. Nice groove.
Nice touch with the answers. Actually, the Be my lover line is pretty hooky. Build on that.
A little New Orleans blues sounding. Good work!
This is great. The playing is restrained, and yet this is precisely what lends the song its power.
Nice musical tension here, coupled with the minimalist lyrical observations. Really suggestive, quite an effective piece. Well done!
Love the TVZ, bless yer heart.
likin that vocal great backing vocals too thumping guitar yeeah!!!
bloody brilliant
I love the chords in the chorus in this.. dark, but brilliant. Especially good use of your vocal in the verse and the chorus is a real pay off. Sold.
