Here we go
I can't wait for you to show, me the way
and I know
there are places we will go, someday
but i'm feeling inside
that there's thing that we hide

RPM. Month of concessions. I had lots of ideas, and they all seemed to fall apart. Time was not in abundance. Glad this was a leap year, for me to squeeze this out in a few hours after work.

The winter evening settles down
With smell of steaks in passageways.
Six o’clock.
The burnt-out ends of smoky days.
And now a gusty shower wraps
The grimy…

Wow. You really nailed that intro!
Quick story: my high school girlfriend was obsessed with this song. She once played it on a loop for 54 hours straight (CD players had just become affordable and that repeat button was just too much for her to resist). When I came over to see her she was a little..... frayed. She really wasn't much of a goth, but she loved this song and the movie The Hunger. Okay, so maybe she was a little bit of a goth.
October 2023 A-side? It started with the stupid singsong thing I remember hearing as a kid and then mutated into Meshuggah... with a special cameo at the end of the track.
The first lines of the chorus just crept into my head.
I had to write the rest.
ALL IN
You've been holding back for so long now
And I've been losing track of how many times I've written my vows

Great guitar, your voice matches up well with the music, carnival ending is nice

Dig that fuzzed out guitar!
This is very FNG!!!
Is this about terrible Ted Nugent???
Excellent guitar tone.
Yeah- that put a smile on my face!
Everybody should listen to THIS song RIGHT NOW. iPodded and on speed dial. (He ain't no doll.)
GREAT track! Love your vocals and seemingly effortless song-writing! Truly excellent stuff.
Clever. Almost like Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Reprise.
Fuckin' excellent.
I love your noises Tim. Keep making them.
yeah! very cool.
(And the intro is fab also.)
Awesome album! Downloaded as soon as the kiddywinks are in bed!
Is that a TARGET stores mascot puppet in your profile pic? Duomo???
Damn, I really, really dig your style man.
Silly Rabbit!!!

This is quite awesome.
I'm with Keith. I think I prefer this version.
You did it again. Of course you did.
Yeah... we need to talk about how you get those bass sounds.
Fair. True. But seriously.... no one should ever record an acoustic guitar via the pickup. It should be declared a crime.
I do loves me some cheap guitars.....
I sold my Neve and I use the SSL more than the ToneBeast these days, but my last recordings were an SM7 straight into the interface. So there!
But my mic **IS** better than your mic!
This is quite lovely.
A very cool soundscape here. Nicely done.

And you finish it out with loungy goodness. This is a fabulous set of songs for October. Bonus points for the great harmonies.
Spooky, but also more fun!
Awesome work, Ed! This song is all kinds of fun!
Very cool!
This is quite spectacular. You took the song someplace different and Andy is a rock star, but we all already knew that.
Nice work, Keith.
Not only do I not hate you for this one, I love it!
You've started using a different approach with your vocals and I really like it.
This is spectacular. The raw emotion really comes through.
