you are like the rain that falls with the snow
or is it the other way around
i dont know
all i know is i love you
and cant get above you
it is driving with no place to go
the muscle and the bone i find
that keeps my heart in line
just…

you tell me what you want
you tell what you need
i cant give you nothing honey
but this pretty little seed
where has the sun gone
and is it gone forever
will it come back someday
should we just give it some time
i ask you what…
i am thinking about words tonight
they can be hard as nails
they-can be as shapeless as water
they can break your heart
they can hang like a chain
hold you up for years
cause you to think twice
take away your fears
you are falling in love…
you tell me what you want

i cant give you nothing honey

start here at the airport
feels like im going blind
middle of the day in a dark bar
1000 miles away from peace of mind
im tring to remember
when i was a kid
did the sun set in my back yard
i think it did
what comes before and goes on…

Man this is incredible. The off kilter feeling of the music belies the deeply personal lyrics. Like being in a funhouse with a slanted floor, but someone is crying in the distance.

no this is brand new. actually a one take vocal. it does contain some of the same lirics as fertility dance. did you know that you can click on the about tap to get the lyrics?. nice to see you listening much appreciated

three striped gum
falls out of an old dresser drawer
fills my head with memories from before
causes me to close the door
i feel rotten to the core
three striped gum
falls out of my pocket in the rain
what would have happened if i played…

i saw the curtains changing color
i watched the sun room come alive
i have been sitting in this rocker
wondering when you might arrive
i am hoping for redemption
cant stand the way i feel
i know it is only passing through me
rivers flood…
Nice album Tim,hey where do I get one of those rockers with the roll down windows?Some interesting percussion sounds in this one.One of my favorites of the bunch.

it is always unexpected when a tune gains popularity. that song came together so quickly.it was truly inspired. that was a one take vocal. quit often i will harmonize with the main voice. but i knew soon after i recorded the first that that was enough
i really appreciate your input and support

2009 Record Production Month Challenge offering. Very pleased with the collective results. The title came from my friend Zane. His iced tea was in a damaged cup. Thus the title. There are various quotes in the song including some from Mishima…
Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
i like the piano melody. the weaving and the desending happy feel that rolls into the electro beat. i enjoy doing that myself.
nice job all the way around

Rhythmic groove with bass and "guitars". In addition to the obvious bass track, the two distorted "guitar" tracks are actually also basses, EQ'ed and altered with various effects to sound less bassy and more guitary.
for the 2009 RPM Challenge album "Sabbatical"
Standing at the edge of Canyon de Chelly in Arizona at sunrise last summer I had an out of body experience.

really clean sound. reminds me of the windham hill label. i like the string and fret sounds as well. this was my first year doing the rpm challenge and i have found so many talented and inspiring artists, you being one

that is not a sample you hear in the background, it is the dryer going. leave it in? okay, sure i'll leave it in. it's these artistic decisions we're all forced to make.
