A love song for my wife

It happens all over every day, seems the right thing to do

Trying out new names and every one is taken

A song about exactly how ugly local politics can be.
It’s time to play the blame game

Countin' dem pennies from youtube clips

What’s The Yams? The Yams, you say?
What’s The Yams? Am I supposed to know?

What’s The Yams? I don’t know

1. Master of disco gtr 2. love the breakdown. 3. My new fav L17 song. 4. It’s like the Talking Heads, Devo and the B52s are having a conversation about Kendrick Lamar lyrics at a screening of Saturday Night Fever.

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.

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

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.
