Ashes

Robert James

2023 50/90 idea number seven is finished song number 18.

This one would have been okay if the vocal takes weren’t so bad, and if the rhythm guitar tone was a little more lively and less muddy and dull. The vocal harmony is kinda weird too. I don’t know about that bit anymore.

Rhythm is Les Paul Standard Klon KTR Analog Man King of Tone Fender Bass Breaker 15 (direct). Lead is SG Standard Way Huge Russian Pickle Klon KTR Fender Deluxe Reverb.

Verse 1

play with matches

burned to ashes

Always climbing

always rising

‌

Pre chorus

round the bend

past the end

don’t deny

tell me why

‌

Chorus

There’s just one way

Through the madness

There’s no delay

to the sadness
