Tom Waits
Letter Seventeen
I asked to robots to help me write a song in the style of Tom Waits.
Riding on a train to the edge of town
Where the night has just begun
People on the street with nowhere to go
Living hard and having fun
Everywhere I go there’s a song in the air
People living life with no care
Riding the night, with Tom Waits
And feeling alright
Down in the city, with its neon lights
There’s a song that never ends
People walking by in their Sunday best
Heading off to work again
There’s a place in my heart, where the music plays
It never stops, It never fades
Here in this moment, so free
And all the world is green
Love the electric piano you got going on. One of my favourite tones is a Mark IV through a fender amp with a bit of grit mixed with an organ. Those lead guitar tones are perfect for this feel. Very laid back. If anything on the second solo there are a bit too many notes. Just take some out and it will be perfect... just none of the ones after 2:57; those ones are spot the F* on.
Okay, I was cut off so here goes again: I really like this. I can hear Tom singing this in my mind and it's really cool as well. You did a great job on this. One of my favorites. Dave C. (acoustic57) :-)
