Robert James's listening history
Songs with long, drawn out endings that don't quite relate to the rest of the song is kinda of a theme this month. This one fits that bill. It's nothing special. I'm not sure if I like it or not. It's going on the NaSoAlMo album, but if I…

Not bad. Not great. Nothing special, but kinda fun. Super simple. The verse and the chorus are the same riff in different keys. I'm surprised how badly the vocal lags. It's so far behind the beat you could fly a plane through the gap. I…

Normally playing in 7/8 time comes naturally to me. I think I might have been born missing an eighth note (get it? Hardy har har). On this one though, I wrote the bass part first and the chorus seemed simple enough. Playing the rhythm guitars…

A song called losers lose, written in November 2020. Will history know what I was talking about? Probably. Hopefully.
Sloppy, weak, plodding. I kinda like the chorus. I kinda like the break in the middle. I definitely like the harmonies…
