HEAR MY FINAL SONG

Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air

This one's a bit of a ponderous beastie.
It can be whatever you want it to be. For me, it's got a lot to do with Sunday 18th June 1815.

He missed you, and though you failed more often than not, you are welcome back home. And there you have it, in all of it's declarations, to ponder, to think about, to question, to wonder. Sonder.

This all ends, some days are good, some days you are no further than where you first began, or worse. Have faith. The song started life from the verse gtr. It was actually a variation of an idea from 2014. That idea went on to become the song…

Do any of us have any idea of what we are doing? Can we ever get it right, and do we understand the importance of blind faith? And again, the antagonist.

Trying, but now I know what a mess I am, and it seems so daunting and unobtainable. I'm not sure I can do this. It sounds NOTHING like I originally thought it might, but I am ok with that.

Full of promise, fresh, new, worries are far away but still potentially seeping in. The antagonist is never far. The song began it's life when I was messing around with some Wurly and Rhodes sounds. The riff was almost an accident, and has been…

Things are great, but then the doubt explodes into technicolor fear. Stoicism can't defeat reality, or is it awareness? And still the antagonist is there. Hard to know.... Another TV-time riff (I hardly watch it, but when I do, I always have a…

Don't tell me how it is, I'm good, I got it, I got it. But are we blind, and are there cracks in a facade? The riff was what came first, probably while watching the idiot box one evening. I am pretty sure it came very soon after RPM '15, and I…

A song about being self-centered, it needed to be full of angst and antagonism, but also needed the glimmer of something bigger still. Already people have sent me notes, which I am grateful for, but everyone seems to misinterpret the meaning of…

This song is meant to be the intro, set the stage, and talk about the direction of the album. The riff came to me while I was absent-mindedly noodling on my gtr in front of the idiot box one day. I knew at that point I had an album opener of a…

Be strong, nothing that is good is easy. Even when everyone seems to be telling you to give up, be true to yourself. This song came to me in a dream. In that dream, I was singing a country song. You have to realize, I am, uh, not really a fan…

Recorded this one as a test track to sync with the video I shot for it. I am not happy with the computer virtual amp guitar sound on this. I will re-record this and mic my amp for that real cranked 100 watt tube sound.
