An old song, written when I was in my REM phase; strange, it didn't seem to turn out anything like that in the end. This was also a live take where inexplicably, I changed the whole feel of the song this is the only version with this feel - enjoy…

Well it seems your quill is alone rather a lot, of late. The silver lining - and surely it has to be a trick of the light, that shimmer on things, redoubtably more mercurial than arg-arg-argentic - is time freely spend a-practicin', and even the…

All the things you said and done
a different story for everyone
lies that make you play a role
with a heart that has grown so cold
You're just fooling yourself
when you think you have control
you don't have anything at all
Your obsessions…

I posted a version of this before. This is the same pretty much except that I put down a real, organic, bass track using my Squier Mustang bass, rather than the old synthetic one. The production is a bit ballsier too...

This is a Gibson Epiphone Roadie 1/2 scale guitar I picked up used at Guitar Center for $30. It was on the block because no one set it up. The intonation was horrific. And to top it off the bridge is ever so slightly too close to the nut. But…

You can build a life

"I Wish You Knew"

"Dear Vacuum"
Will you be my refuge?
Be my haven from the truth
Give me an impossible gift
Give me an everlasting excuse
To rebuild my delusions
In perfect isolation
Scientific loneliness
There is nothing left to lose
I hate the harshness…

"Mobius Waltz"

Are we the product of stardust and fallout
gravity wells from which there's no way out?

Another Radiohead cover. One of the first things I spent a lot of time working on. It's a five-piece a capella version, and my hard work really shows in the underlying harmony parts which are very tight.
