I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.
This predicament…
A little scratch track from a few months ago. A song about the trials and tribulations of being 11 years old. Watching Six Million Dollar Man, dodging bullies and pretending our bicycles were Harleys.
I was at a friends house and saw a little…
Finally getting to this song Mark. Are you teh man or what? This is really deadly. I find this to be a very serious song, killer. I love the lyrics, the part about the doggies in heaven, thats the deal. Its as real as it gets. Real, real real. Great song Mark.

:D There's always something to eat right there in the woods, where Mother Nature intended it to be. Just stay away from the mushrooms....
actually...it depends on what kind of mushrooms. hehe. A study found that shrooms can actually help with anxiety. I think u know which ones I mean....

Second listening. Still like it. I've never been an eleven year old boy, but I have two boys, so I think I've seen them in this moment. Love when the guitar comes in. Love the vocals, too.
Wish I could write songs like this when I'm drunk. Hmmm... maybe I need to start drinking more. Excellent acoustic jam. This one has a sort of Adam Sandler feel to it. I think it's a combination of your voice and the lyrics. Well done!
Coolest song I ever heard. And to think that you nailed it on the first take! I was laughing through-out the song (well, except the part about your dog getting the blue tongue - I almost cried at that part).
When I wrote this song.... It was about staying true to your Ideals...
In fact... It is about a person that put me in a very difficult situation....
One that effected my life for a while... Just for doing the right thing...
I think…
Man, I must be out of touch. I play/sing on a lot of your tunes and still managed to miss this one!
I love it! It swings big time and the vocals kick ass!!
You rule, bro! Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!
Morning light on the mountain stream,
catches the eye of the child within his dreams.
The day begins, present and aware,
of all the beauty, he plays without a care.
Castles on the riverbank, a choir of birds in song,
picking spring flowers in…
Right on, bro! A well put together prog masterpiece as usual. You must have had a hell of a time putting this one together! We've got to do another collab soon!
Mark
This one has been sitting around for a while but I feel it's the best or most interesting of my most recent posts. The inspiration came from listening to an old CD I have of a great band from the 90's. If anybody can name the band that I gained…
This one is called "Your Light".
Hope you Like it!

LYRICS
-YOUR LIGHT-
-By Tharek Mokbul-
We’ve heard all the compliments.
All said in a day.
They’ve lost all their meaning now.
Wasted away.
They were there…
Love like a salt river washing away
Love's like sunshine evaporate
Love like floating candles blowing away
Watch out for the way you'll compensate
When I've seen all you have to give
When I'm still hungry
I need more than this
Tell me how…
The verses in this song alternate being about my best friend when I was a little kid, and my best friend at the time I wrote it. I thought it was brave and artsy at the time. Then I grew up. :)
Thanks to Sister Savage for helping us debut our new project. As busy as she is, Sister managed a bit of time and some great Jovian vox for us.
This piece or art is unique, sublime, and psychedelic.
Lyrics:
?
2010 Savigear-Reyes-Lennon
Many thanks to Kirk Lynch, a real gentleman and a pleasure to jam with.
His tracks are the heart of this tune.
Lyrics:
I have a a pain
deep in my Chest
I can’t Breathe
as I Light my cigarette
Oh my head, Woe is me
Oh my head, Woe is me
But…
A cover and rearrangement of the song Lost! by Coldplay.
Thank Jesus for my skills, had it not been for him i would surely be dead.
I give thanks to God and credit this to him for giveing me the skills he has.
It should never be different for…
For this Mother's Day week, a conga improvisation dedicated to Saint Monica and all the other mothers who surreptitiously provide for and incessantly pray for their children. Thanks Mom!
** this could really use a tasty melody to go with…
Hybrid analog/digital rock and roll. I'm trying out some new guitar FX and amp sims in Pro Tools.
They are not so bad all distorted and fuuzzzzed
up.
I tried to sing it, but hey, you know, I give it hell though right?
It's a Goddess of War…
I think this is the first song that I've posted here under Mannequin Races that actually has a guitar in it. You can't really tell that it's a guitar but it's in there (middle section around the 1:50 mark). The guitar is heavily modulated but…
Dissonant cohesion. Didn't think it was possible, but you managed! Stays interesting the whole way through which is important to me anyway.
Great stuff!
I'm singing lead on this. It was recorded to 24 track, 2 inch tape, I'm thinking. I have those somewhere, but they've turned gooey. Sadly, it seems to go into the red during the chorus, but I can't fix that now. I have more stories about the…

Drunken loser... story of my life... awesome riffs and chord progressions... love the singing and the story.....
Like your style! Sorry you felt so rubbish, but turning it in to a song (and this is the coolest song I ever heard) rocks.

This is the classic Launched style, the spook baby, its got it. I love this kind of sound you get here.
Finally getting to this song Mark. Are you teh man or what? This is really deadly. I find this to be a very serious song, killer. I love the lyrics, the part about the doggies in heaven, thats the deal. Its as real as it gets. Real, real real. Great song Mark.

Great vocal textures here.
This is freakin' sweet, bro! Wonderful strumming and the lyrics are awesome! You rule, man!
Yes - I love it. It's full of passion - You both know how to deliver. Fantastic!
Very soothing and mellow. Requires multiple listens.
I like this one, flows along great.
Can you say neo-hippie-symphonic-space-jazz?? Well composed and performed. I love it!
This is great stuff, guys! You should give a breakdown of who did what. I kinda got an idea, but it would still be cool :) Frickin' sweet lyrics too!
Beautiful.
Yes - I love it. The rhythm guitar tone and that Tony Banks sounding synth part was great.
Nawmy!! Cool shout out to mom! I might craft a little audio card for my mom now. Great driving conga beats!
Enviable guitar tone. I want that sound.
The guitar and vox are a deadly weapon here! Great tune.
I thought this was cool as all getout, bro! Vox were great, and I loved that guitar tone. Sweeeeeeet!!!
Yes - I love it.
Dissonant cohesion. Didn't think it was possible, but you managed! Stays interesting the whole way through which is important to me anyway. Great stuff!
