What I got to do to make you love me?
What I got to do to make you care?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
And I wake to find that you're not there?
What I got to do to make you want me?
What I got to do to be heard?
What do I say when…

I was sorta trying to write a Mclusky song here - I wasn't exactly successful, but it was fun to try. All of the lyrics are sentences from the 37th page of different books I had lying around: See if you recognize anything from your favorite novel…

While adding effects to a song, I accidentally put distortion on a leftover silent recording. I kind of liked the hum that resulted and made the rhythm track out of that.
Uploaded
I came up with "Robot Pizza Militia" because I just wanted a title with the initials RPM, but oddly it did end up fitting the song.

The is a song a wrote a long time ago, circa 1993, before I know how to write songs. Recorded 1999.

A pop song about on-lane dating. Inspired by a friend, not auto-biographical. Not one of my best.
Uploaded
Another really old song from the early 90s. My lyrics were very obtuse back then (or just plain nonsensical).

This one's about friend who was a heroin addict - and a camping trip. That's my memory of it. Written in 1999.

Not sure if can call myself young now, but I could when I wrote this!

This one is about new years eve 1998/1999, which was spend at a hippie festival called "confest".

A love song - not much else to say about this one.

Sort of depressing this one, it's written about my best friends (former) girlfriend who sadly took her own life in 1999.

I wrote this to be sung by a dear, now-departed friend who sadly committed suicide while working on a new album of very exciting material. I have a whole mess of "dead Kevin" songs which are in the wrong key, which I've been avoiding like the…

A song about a rather unsavory character. Fathers, lock up your daughters!

Step away step away
Don't you dare
That's your pedestal
Don't you care about falling from grace?
When we first met
You sent me straight to the top without caring
I didn’t care either I was so proud I'd say with a shout
I'll take you all on

I’m Breaking loose
I’m Tearing loose
Shattering it so hard

Driving it so far

It's just another revolution

You said you left me Years ago when
My blind sight burned away
Only silence cured this endless ringing
To cue this passion play
I could have loved you years ago now
I left you in a haze
I never knew that i Never really loved you

Walking through the fields
Red peppers were stinging
Climbing up the hill
Webs were cast away
Now etched in your history
I begin to pray
I pray For you to sing your song a final time
it’s The only song that you ever knew
I’m already forgetting…

Love me tender,

You have made my life complete,

Sometimes, it's hard
To make things clear
Or know when to face the truth
And I know that the moment is here
I'll open my heart
And show you inside
My love has no pride
I feel with you I've got nothing to hide
So open your eyes
And see who I…

From a phone booth in Vegas
Jessie calls at five a.m.
To tell me how she's tired of all of them
She says, "Baby, I've been thinking about a trailer by the sea
We could go to Mexico; You, the cat and Me
We'll drink tequila and look for seashells…

You are far
When I could have been your star
You listened to people
Who scared you to death
And from my heart
Strange that you were strong enough
To even make a start
But you'll never find
Peace of mind
Till you listen to your heart

Liftoff. Nuff said.
My favourite track of RPM12. Played it to the people in the office and they were very kind.

The approach to the moon.
This one was going to have lyrics around the second melody piece, but nothing fitted and I decided it was more appropriate to just have it as an instrumental.
Uploaded
Each moon landing could only spend a short time on the surface before it was time to leave.
Buzz Aldrin's words on the moon struck me as very descriptive so they became the title. To be fair, I let Neil Armstrong do much of the vocals on this…

They say pride goes before the fall

This is the first tune I've recorded in many months. I didn't like it that much to start with. But after getting more creative with the bass line and sprucing up some of the guitar parts, it started to feel better. The vocals helped.

This is probably the earliest track that has survived. This was written with Scream Tracker 2, back when I was in the 7th or 8th grade. This is the work of a child. Remember that.
