Dang, everyone except Rob (and Laura) (and me) liked the previous version! (Cupid's Own Knife)
Only i did this with the lyrics so maybe one can be a bonus track ...
aargghh ... why didn't i write a *different* song?

It was quite a lucky mindgame in that case, since you ended up with two very worthy tracks as a result...although I'm sure you'd have preferred more convenient timing (like NOT when you're trying to finish up an album with a looming deadline.)

i just went and re-read what you wrote at RPM, Rob/Laura and I must apologise - you actually said you like it - i didn't though, so i re-recorded, but then it felt like me against the world lol
ANd now guess what - i listened to the first one again and it sounds OK to me too. Aaaarrggghhh again. :-)
Weird how my mind plays tricks on me

Ok, to set the record straight: I didn't dislike the previous version...sorry if I made it sound like that. I certainly didn't mean to push you to rerecord...
THAT SAID, I much prefer this version. Great stuff.
(Great...I still sound like a complete jerk!)

Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album
For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…

This is great like a hangover.
I have a hangover.
I had a great night. I remember what fun it was and bits of it make me burst out in a big grin. And yet i feel very different today. Slowly, warily i get on with my life, bits of the past intrude without being asked, and I'm sort of unbalanced.
If things are too quick it almost hurts so I trust to the slow things.
Pictures. Songs.
Beautiful.
This tune was sounding so dramafree and happy-go-lucky that I decided to write some (uncharacteristically) dramafree and happy-go-lucky lyrics. The sound at the beginning is from my Nokia-phone which I also use as my alarmclock. I was then reminded…
Featuring a sweet reference to the Loretto Chapel's mysterious staircase and the most wonderful mylar balloon ever manufactured (with allusion to secret promise attached).
I mostly wanted to make music with a funky clav line I'd come up with, so this is it. For the voiceover, I unabashedly used an awesome monologue by Ken Nordine.
I came up with the main bass riff on my electric bass, but after recording it I was unhappy with the tone, so I used a sampled upright bass. On top of that is a layer of doodling "lead guitar" (played on my bass), a dreamy semi-harsh organ sound…
This instrumental song is about the rabbit in the moon. Fact: the ancient Aztecs measured drunkenness in number of rabbits. Like, "Oh, cheg out Bill, he's 300 rabbits." "Dude, I was like 230 rabbits last week and I got kicked out of the Florida…
Oh, I had such big plans for this song. Acoustic guitar, tin whistle, maybe go and drag the bagpipes out of storage (cough, or as the case really would be: fire up Logic, so I can use an external plugin).
I went to storm spotters training instead…
Comments on Gumbo's stuff
Definitely feel-good-factor.

Another great one!! Well done!
This track works so well! Sort-of reminds me a little of Johnny Cash (and that's a good thing!)
This rocks!!!!!!! It's a keeper!!! So gooood!!
This song rules.
Hahahahahaha, YEAH! Love it! Awright!
Hey this ain't no filler, it's great. Alright yeah!
That's really different for you, but I think it works fine. Has a great groove!!
I likes it. The groove, the vocal, the "awright".
I like the panning in this one separating the guitar parts.
Lovely tune, very nicely sung and played.
Nice one Stu! Love those backing vocals
Great song. The guitars have a nice Spanish vibe, which I like.
