And those yet still to come
It fills me with a sense of wonder
To watch the rising sun
how many times
how many souls
Have acted out these scenes

Good lyrics, good melody. It makes me think of two people; Eckhart Tolle for some of the lyrical concepts(Author of Power of Now) Doing is not the same as just being. Those lyrics kind of made me think of that a bit. And about the time I noticed you were from UK I could hear a John Lennon esque accent/quality to your voice. About 38 seconds. Good work anyway.

three fingered piano chord hopping and then bass on the juno di. and some singing too.
It’s a comedy of errors
It’s a d for disaster
There’s a comic on the stage
But there isn’t any laughter
There’s not even a hole
That can swallow him…

words and vox by oldrottenhead
Take what you want
But keep your hands off my medication
I can get by without you
But not without them
And don’t you dare
Even think of taking my guitars
And don’t you care
Of the state you’ll leave…

this is one for the over fifties
we strolled along
lost avenues
with no regrets
and nonchalance
who's kidding who
so confident
so bold and full
of bravado
when we were young
we knew it all
with certainty
you couldn't tell
cos we couldn't hear…

On Norwegian shores
Neath the autumn sky
Sitting by the water’s edge
Counting bees and flies
I’ll soon be going home again
I’ll be saying goodbye to my friends
On Norwegian shores
The sunlight bright
See a million stars

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…

A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.

She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard

Bethan wanted to make a lullaby for her new grandson and asked me for to make a music track for her to sing to.
Tess added 2 extra riffs and pitched it down as well. She also did the mixing and the vocal arrangement.

sort of alice in wonderland or maybe you might read something else from it. that's up to you.
They've switched off all the lights
they're out to lunch
they've all gone to the party
they're having tea and scones
the hatter calls for silence…

In time I'll fall apart,
And you can watch it all with dried up eyes.
Our life revolves around a worsening reflection of how helpless we are.
Lights out.

This was made for an EMUfest a year ago ... played on my really old Rolan D10 and the robot-voice is me through a vocal patch on my boss BR800.
Have fun :D
