Hi Tim, just listened to your RPM album - excellent stuff. Personal faves 40 Days, Flood, Donkey and this fine rockin' tune. Glad there's someone else out there fond of a fuzzy guitar!
Hmm. I guess I'm not a Husker Du superfan cause I don't get the nod (all over Bob Mould's solo stuff but that's another thing).
Regardless, lovely piece.
Great songwriting, just a terrific use of a phrase that baseball-fan newspaper-reading kids like me used to see. As one sportscaster once said... "He's listed as day-to-day... Well, aren't we all?"
“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
Is this an original or is this a cover of Husker Du? Either way, it's a beaut!

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.
