Make it So

Robert James

2024 RPM Challenge idea number 11 becomes finished song number 13.

This one is okay. We’ll say it’s on the bubble as far as making the final RPM Challenge submission is concerned. I like the vocal harmony at the end and unlike most of the songs this year the lead guitars are not horrific. They certainly aren’t good, but they’re not as bad as most of this year’s stuff.

The rhythm guitars are a Les Paul Custom and the leads are an ES-335 Pro. The amps for both are a Fender Bassbreaker 15 and a Vox MV50 Clean, both running direct out. The pedal chain on the rhythm tracks is a Klon KTR into a Keeley D&M Drive. The leads are a Real McCoy Custom RMC10 into a Wren and Cuff Tall Font Russian into a Klon KTR into a Seymour Duncan Vapor Trails.

Chorus

I’ll never let this go

Just wanted you to know

It only goes to show

I’m gonna make it so

‌

Verse 1

It hasn’t happened yet

We know it will

It’s still the safest bet

Despite the guilt

‌

Verse 2

The story is the same

won’t ever change

The reasoning is lame

Nothing remains

‌

Outro

One road ahead

One single thread
