Inspired by a large stone I saw in the Ortspark in Munich, which somebody had carefully engraved with the name Mabel.
No loops used this time, all virtual instruments played by me. Cymbal, guitar, acoustic guitar, violin.
A thoughtfully constructed and genuinely performed song, Steve. I particularly appreciate that way the violin and acoustic guitar interweave throughout. Nice job!
Thanks Tom. Yes, the track is shorter than I expected. I wanted the guitars speeded up, and in doing so it shortened the whole track considerably. Perhaps I will extend it. Cheers for listening : )
Love the funky bass in this one, Steve! My only "complaint" (if you want to call it that) is that I wish it were a little longer.

Fun! A toe tappin' collage of sound!
Thanks for listening Tom. Glad you like it. : )

Thanks for listening guest : )
Smooth
Thanks for your support and encouragement Tom : )

Like it! Sounds like being chased by a crazy killer!
Amazing! Like the phrasing as well as the speed and tone. Great job!
Simple but effective lyrics. Good song that you express very well Tom.
This is cool. Chords are nice and I wish I could sing this high!
Another new one on me. Your voice suits the Beck songs very well. Good job!
Nice song Tom!

Nice tune. Chord changes sound tricky. Good sound Tom. I think you made a great job here.
Soulful performance, and good use of your vocal range Tom.
Thanks for that Proods!
