Only the 2nd time in my 54 years on the planet that I've heard a song sung from the perspective of one who died in a car crash, so while I can't say it hasn't been done before, it's still rather rare. What I can say is that this one is by far the superior of the two. Great job -- lyrically, vocally, and musically!
I’m on AloneTone as Gene Eric Mann (generic man), Justin Otter Guy (just another guy), Merry Bear, and Nightmoth. I really appreciate that you listened to ALL my Nightmoth recordings – those old children songs are particular horrid numbers, recorded before I knew much about what I was doing. Anyway, I’m here to return as much of the time and ear you lent to me as I can and play your 13 gems.
I already dig “Breakfast” and “Boyfriend” so I’m sure I’ll get a kick from the rest. Your style turns me on and tickles my fancy. Thanks for the listen and always, always, ROCK ON!
A nice mid '60s flavor in the neighborhood of songs like "Time Won't Let Me" and bands like The Outsiders -- the genre I fell for when I got my first radio on my 6th birthday. I really enjoyed this -- Rock on!
THIS IS A SUPER COOL RECORDING! But when I tried to play the video, I got this message: "An error occurred, please try again later." Thought you might like to know.
She wakes across the ocean, and sighs when she discovers...the man who's sleeping with her looks like her last two lovers. No one wants to be a banana head.
Reg decided to go busking down on the subway....
On the subway
Stood on the subway playing my music
As the world rushes by
Lost in a world of my own making
I don’t get washed away in the tide
Its lonely out here where…
Still having fun learning keyboard, and sticking to a determination to never write another sad song. This is just a practice ditty, but it's part of the angry phase of writing which might last a few decades. All of the noise is from the keyboard…
Nice. It's unique, though at the same time it reminds me of the early seventies post-VU New York scene. You're vocal has a Bowie-esque quality that gives the song a bit of gravity.
I'll be here if you decide to make a longer rendition.
(..also, thank you for the kind words on our silly music.)
The last couple of years have been soaked in sadness, numbness and loss, and it's not something I've tried to hide, even when making music. But I've come to realize that it's my own responsibility to lay forth the effort to find new happiness…

The folks under 40 between 1964 and 1970 would have ate this song up! A brilliant composition and a delicious production!

I can relate. Nice song.

You've had TWO Halloween vortices! I don't have anything more to say about it...just wanted to use the word "vortices".
The places that The mind goes....
Ooh. I love it, a lot of stuff going on when I listen with the headphones on!
Super....it's what I'd expect if the other Beatles ended up visiting the Band at Big Pink!

Indeed! Halloween track….no doubt about it.
