This is what happens when you can't get an internet meme out of your head.
You can leap tall buildings in a single bound
You can save a drowning man
You can stop a bank robber with your kung fu moves
Still, McKayla is not impressed…
This is what is known as a "hostile takeover".
MCOBigBen wrote the song and gave Tim the multitracks.
Tim chopped and edited away, adding guitars, backing vocals, and various production.
Grant added drums.
Ben still hasn't heard it at this point....

Excellent stuff - big smile on my face.
And anyone who can master a tambourine is ok in my book (wretched instrument of the devil that it is lol)(guess who, still, after too many years, can't get a tambourine to do sensible 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?)
Some thoughts on the growth of social media....
E-E A-B
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…

Can you hide in happiness
Can you disguise the sadness in your voice
Could you play only major chords
Can you hide in happiness
Choose a part of you to show
And no one around you can know
Just how deep the scars go
Can you hide in…
Now with more awesomeness! Thank you to This Wretched Vessel Lead vocalist for adding in some Gang vocals to beef up the chorus. Also borrowing their percussionist for some tambourine to give the song some extra pop!
You know I can’t think…

This is like a lost Railway Children song from a session where they were letting one of the other guys sing for once. Nice work, and it features your usual upbeat lyrical content! :)

Comments on Letter Seventeen's stuff
Hard time impressing her, lol - I like the thought gone into this song, and the range of instruments.
Oh yeah...dig! w;-)
Likin' this!
Excellent....liking the vibe
Bad ass tuneage! Spankin the 7#9 chord with thick tone. Nice!
Better than the original. I speak with authority here. ;)
groovy

Tambo. Awesomeinfinity.
Has that elusive "Feelgood Factor". Love it.
Cheeky arrangement, wonderful!!!!!!!!!
Such a fun and vibrant track. Love your vocal and the music is wonderful, right up my street. Bethan
I think the tambourine is the true anchor of this tune :-) Great job Tim!
Perfect!
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 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.
Great energy and great fun.
I totally want to see the movie trailer this should accompany! Major bonus points for the trumpet, too.
Apparently Ed likes the Allman Brothers. Who knew?
Excellent song and killer guitar tones!
Such a catchy chorus! At times you really remind me of Eleanor Friedberger.
I love hearing you embrace your pop sensibilities. Another home run.
Wow. This is really great. The key are perfect and the affected vocal sounds amazing. And then some perfectly placed drum bits. Well done!
Whoa. The revision with the new backing vocals is really great!

Great space and sound, sir. I look forward to hearing this in context of the larger story.
I wish this were four times longer. So, you know, like two minutes long.
Man... there's something about your melodic choices that I just adore. Nice work!
Wilsun, the remix king!
I’m honored to be chopped up and reconstituted so. Great work and great fun! Ow, if you’ll pardon me, I need to go find a shiny shirt.
Great voice and a great bit of talent here. Your EP is quite excellent. Keep up the great work!
Spectacular! There's sort of an Eleanor Friedberger vibe to this that I really love. MORE PLEASE!
Wow. That really opens up at 2:00. Great stuff!
