you couldn't tell

There’s a ghost in my house
That we can’t see
Moving things around
When we’re not here
Playing little tricks
On my memory
Playing little games
With my mind

Just me and my acoustic.
I've just learned how to record both at the same time.

It fills me with a sense of wonder
To watch the rising sun
how many times
how many souls
Have acted out these scenes
It fills me with…
Two Peas in a Pod, Kindred Spirits you know the feeling about spending time with someone whose heart beats well with yours.

Comments on oldrottenhead's stuff
nice...that 'bird' thing is so subtle yet it makes the whole thing
you are a gentleman.
I like the vocals and the subtle ambient samples really set this
cool tune. great lyrics
I simply am in love with this song Jim!!!! LG
This remains my all time favorite from 'The Kite' .... LG
voice brings me to Bowie a bit...great space on these recordings...nice work
lol cheers

like this one a lot. your voice sounds a little david bowie-ish here. nice drum track, too :)
yes
is this a true story
get back in the fridge jim
Wooo Whooo , summers here , this is a beatiful song , makes you feel relaxed and happy
soothing i like the peacefulness.
Really catchy tune! Love the stereo guitars!
Like that crazy can't take too much more voice ......scary
Love the Juno D. My Juno recently met it's end. I sold it for parts. :(
