Description:
A progression.

I addressed some issues from the last version. I extended it...in a different way.

The center parts consist of a tune inspired by one of my daughter's piano books. There is also a backdrop I used on one of my other tunes, "Dark."

I think the mix has improved. However, things would go well to have a stretch of time to work on it! I'm sure most of you understand.

Lyrics:
Sad
I was in error, I was a fool
Sorry
I wish I could change things
Goodbye

Wrong
How many times I've been wrong
Worry
It takes me to a bad place
Goodbye

On
What choice do I have
Steps
I can't go on
Blind
Goodbye




I need time
Leave me alone
Have no choice
Going home

Hardware:
Fender Acoustic, Ibanez Electric, G4 dual 1Gig

funky &mdash 01/27/06 - 07:45:07 AM
Very different, but cool vibe. It's artistic value is very interesting. Almost indie rock, but not quite, then it is, etc. Wow. Just changed completely...each part is cool and imtriguing. Fun listen. Very unique.

Courageous! &mdash 01/27/06 - 10:58:29 AM
The changes are radical but reasonable. The tone on the lead guitar was
more than sweet. I wish the vocal tone / clarity on the first segment had
been at the same level as the close as it was extremely difficult to make
out what you were singing at the outset. All in all, a fascinating tune!

Thanks Man,

Still a work in progress, I guess. With the vocals, I discovered sitting up
straight or even standing improved my diction and projection...still learning!

Thanks for the listen!

Good work! &mdash 01/27/06 - 12:46:45 PM
"Fender Acoustic, Ibanez Electric," This is a bit opposite to me, and that is cool! This is a freaky tune! The vocals are very good and creative. the song improves when the sudden change comes. But when it changes once again i think its a bit, I dont know, but i guess i just dont like that Genre you were playing in that part. And then it changes again and again once more, the last change was cool, its good when the vocals are back! Good work, but a bit to much for me!!

I'm glad you appreciate the "freakiness" of it! I think my realization after I
posted it was that the transitions were inadequate. I wanted the segments to
be different, but perhaps they are too incongruous.

Thanks for the visit!

I think there are some interesting ideas &mdash 01/27/06 - 01:12:13 PM
here. I like the initial chord progression. I think you need to find some
more layers that would help to tie it together better. I wish I could
indentify what those layers should be. :)

I agree. It's a puzzle that deserves time...

Different place &mdash 01/27/06 - 02:55:11 PM
I like the addition of the bass. I think you could spread the lead vocals
a little more with chorus or stereo separation (though I like the
panning effect of "what choice do I have").

Wha?! That's a crazy new middle section! I dig it from a creativity
standpoint, but I think it violates that hazy, murky character you
established in the original. Don't get me wrong, I like this version, but I
also liked the very succinct emotion of the original.

I'll have to work on that spreading thing.

I thought the panning helped bring out the disjointed feeling of the song.

I might change the middle. I do think that I need some sort of movement
from the self loathing part to the selfish part.

Quirky and offbeat &mdash 01/27/06 - 06:29:35 PM
And pretty damn cool. Very trippy song- almost like an aural
hallucination. Sounds like art rock to me. Bass is a great addition- like
that I can feel it as much as hear it.

I'm discovering the importance of bass!

lots going on here &mdash 02/26/06 - 04:20:43 PM
There are lots of things going on here; it's like a medley of different
tunes. The first one has a disturbing, haunting quality to it; well done. I
personally would disagree with the comment that the vocals need work;
they're a big part of the overall feel. Not sure why it changes so much (?).
The up tempo instrumental towards the end is completely different, but
great!

Thanks for your comments! I thought I would run through a process of
emotion, just to check it out. Who knows?

the things one said versus what one thinks...

interesting change in the middle... I checked to see if I was still
listening to the same song but it fits...

Thanks for the kind words! Your latest, "like Andy Warhol" is very good!
