Thank you for telling me that your cat threw up on the rug today, and
Thank you for telling me that Starbucks didn't make your coffee the right way, and
Thank you for telling me that…
There's a story here. One day I'll share it.
G - D - Am7 - C
In the year of upheaval
Pick up and start a life anew
Stare down the possibilities
Wonder what I'm meant to do
Am I the one
Who will be king?
In the year of betrothal
Coming into…
Another 80's flashback
They say the laws of motion
Don't apply to emotions
But I say check your equation
You may not need so much persuasion
If you want to be the one
Who I take home tonight
You should get your back up off the wall
Some things…
My cigar box guitar makes its debut.
This seemed a good idea
But you bit more than you can chew
Now that you've sized things up
It's decision time for you
At this critical juncture
It's time for you to choose
We're waiting for your final word…
Yacht rock, featuring my most forward and forthright vocal ever.
I don't want to believe
It's time for me to go
I don't want to
Walk through that door
'Cause I know if I go
I won't be coming home
I won't be welcome here
Anymore
We can try…
I'm lucky enough to have a lot of talented friends helping me out on this song.

You say your life's full of problems
So much to worry about
And you feel overcome now
By your worries and your doubts
Well, I may have the…

Do you remember
Those times we spent alone?
Walking hand in hand
Skimming stones
Watching the stars
Hiding from our friends
Those summer nights
We hoped would…
My George Harrison phase....
Don't look now, you're caught in the lavender haze
Before you know it, you're caught in the lavender haze
Head in the clouds, caught in the lavender haze
Don't look now, you're caught in the lavender haze

Heading out on the floor
Act like you've been here before
Eyes are watching from all around
To see what's up with the new kid in town
Is it true that he has all the moves?

“Shine” by Wilson Ng, written and recorded in February 2022 for the RPM Challenge.
Outtake from the 2022 RPM Challenge Sessions. Just one of those songs that doesn't seem to work. Wanted to recut the vocals because they were basically scratch…
Cool mood and vibe. I'll echo an earlier comment about this being the most accessible of your songs, but that's not a bad thing. This reminds me of something from a Brian Ferry album.
Some say, "It's the price you gotta pay"
Some say, "You gotta learn to walk away"
But I'm still standing in the light
And I won't go down without a fight
Some say, "True love is just a lie"
Some say, "You'll give it up before you die…
If I told you how well I know you
Would you tell me it's not true
Have you got yourself believing
No one could know you like I do
I know it's been a long time coming
So many others you thought would treat you right
But I'm gonna show you…
Raised on vinyl and a needle that rides
To a paper circle at the end of both sides
Between the speakers, cover in hand
Sit in silence after Jungleland
I will not trade one bit of my soul for their pieces of gold
I've seen a world they'll…
RPM 2022. I finished a song.. does that count?
Well the early bird
Catches the worm
Eats it up
And shits it out
Onto the lawn
And into the dirt
Where the worms crawl
And use the soil to form
To be eaten once more
By the early birds…
Man... that percussion just embeds itself into your soul. It's a hypnotic joy and makes me think of an electronic version of "Fool's Gold" by Stone Roses.
Great work this year, my friend!

Comments on Letter Seventeen's stuff
pretty sinister, kind of a NIN groove although the little synth line towards the end made me think of a demented Main Street Electrical Parade thing for a moment for some reason... (for whatever reason?)
"thank you for telling me you worked on your virtual farm today..." LMAO BRILLIANT!
Another great song, the music is really wonderful too. I love the banjo sound.
Lovely full track, well played too. Very, very nice, love it. Foot tapping good!
I like your lyrics, very clever.
Very gentle backing music making a feature of this brave and strong vocal. Pretty guitar outro.
I like your song writing, they jog along well and keep the interest. Great performances here too.
Pretty song, nice relaxed feel to it.
This is an exceptionally good song. Rather exciting I think! Great performance!
I'd say Gary did a good job of teaching harmony singing. Backing vox sound great!
Nice use of synth. Love how this tune moves.
Really like this one.
Punk rawk vibe! Love the subject material too!
How did we miss this? Hilarious! And kicks ass too! w;-)
This is one of my favorite songs on the album!
Too funny! I have said most of this myself as I visit my social sites.
hilarious and oh so true! this really ROCKS!
Ha ha nice one! ;)
british sound here, you an anglo-phile? Nice !
Cool - like the sitar sound.

I fail to understand why you consider this unworthy of inclusion on an album. This is Wilsun at the peak of his powers.
Cool mood and vibe. I'll echo an earlier comment about this being the most accessible of your songs, but that's not a bad thing. This reminds me of something from a Brian Ferry album.
I love it when you sound like Elliott Smith.
Another great tune just begging for a full band treatment.
Someone needs to give this a full band treatment. You have a serious pop vibe working here.
Excellent polished sound here, Keith.
Excellent backing vocals here.
Glad to have you back, D. Rockin' tune.
There goes Moody putting us all in our place again. Just remarkable. Absolutely remarkable.
Man... that percussion just embeds itself into your soul. It's a hypnotic joy and makes me think of an electronic version of "Fool's Gold" by Stone Roses. Great work this year, my friend!
Beautiful atmosphere.
Yep. Peak Wilsun here. Great job.
This is a tremendous piece of work, Matt. You should feel very proud of what you've produced here.
Wow. Really great stuff, Brian. Great space and mood.
The new vocals really make this already awesome song shine even more. Well done!
Check out Mr. phasey-voice.
So awesome!
I do loves me some DKM harmonies!
Very cool vibe!
Great closer and a great way to finish out the arc of the record. This a really wonderful EP, Ed.
