Description:
Unobtainable Remedy was the first song I posted on MacJams back in June 2004 - the early days.16,000 songs later, it's back. And not without some brilliant piano work by Syncopatient. I'm calling this a "work in progress" because I'd like to see a lot more done with it; where that will come from I'm not yet sure... It's been a while since I posted a song here so I'm happy to be uploading again. Hopefully, since probably thousands of MacJammers have joined since the first version, a lot of people will be hearing this song for the first time. I hope you enjoy. And your ideas and feedback (and offers) for where I should take this song will be well received. Lyrics:
Look at the bright side as dim as it is It's happening but it's not happening to me Don't disrespect the poet And be sure to wash your hands I've been holding out for you And you've been holding off on me I feel the chill and I fold up my arms You are the unobtainable remedy Why do you have the fans on When you're so apparently cold I've been holding out for you And you've been holding off on me There's something here, besides me And there's nowhere else I'd rather be And I haven't worked out how I'm still here But I wish you'd let me know Why will I put myself through this again This weekly guaranteed let down And how will I make it up for last time And how long do I have I've been holding out for you And you've been holding off on me Hardware:

by Syncopatient. I'd like to hear a flute or weepy guitar do some
soloing in the intro and break. Not a lot...just a light touch to
momentarily lift and set back down. The performance has a sad Billy
Joel sort of mood to it. Your voice is a little flat in places but you may
be doing that purposely to squeeze out pathos.
"I've been holding out for you. And you've been holding off on me."
That's a good hook. Maybe you could ramp it up even more each time
you sing it...moving from quiet self-pity to an angered outcry.
