Description:

A young girl that would do anything to fit in.It cost her both body & soul.

loop-free

Lyrics:

Shes runnin' round with the fancy boys
she never tired of their fancy toys
to lead her on means to question why
the fancy boys they'll give it another try
another try

Easy come it's easy go
the fancy boys like the show show show
the kind of fiend that gloats lusts and lies
the fancy boys grow wings grow wings and fly.......hello goodbye

He forced in he forced in don't cry baby
your hands pinned your hands pinned
you won't win oh oh oh oh it's Candice
Candice oh oh oh

So when fancy comes fancy goes fancy
comes....... goes
the fancy boys give it another try

really impressed &mdash 06/11/06 - 04:30:56 PM

the production and the playing, very tight. horns intro a nice touch. I like the bright rhythm git -- like john fuscante (sp?) of red hot chili peppers (you might like his solo album, a very spare, synchopated thing)... long intro a bonus! love the soundscape aspect of it, and the way the notes hang for seconds, good for the overall mood of the thing. good clear vocals. overall a strong effort, i look for over things by you.

Impresive &mdash 06/22/06 - 10:18:47 AM

Great vocal and guitar talent. Lots of great elements - wish I had the same production skill. I like the lyrics - very suggestive yet open to interpretation. I was a little thrown off by the "Please Please Me" organ riff at the top. Maybe I'm too conventional, but I would have liked some kind of hook chorus, needed to gel the disparate elements of the song more.

Impresive &mdash 06/23/06 - 10:03:58 AM

Thanks brewsta for those very,very kind words-Yes I am very 'unconventional'
when it comes to music making-whatever comes out..thats what it is-working
in a constant state of swoon-It's a spiritual sorta' thing!
The 'Please Please Me' injections are sorta' my way of exposing the 'unseen'
truths behind songs like that that paint a picture of such behavior as normal
and exceptable-the flipside is a reality not often spoke about let alone sung
about ie;date rape,come on,come on,come,on,please,please me oh yah like I
please you,yada,yada,yada-Hope that doesn't ruin it for ya'-thanks again &
god bless!

thoughts from the bull... &mdash 06/24/06 - 07:53:37 PM

first off, thank you for your kind feedback!

second, this one got me from the first notes. it's got that mysterious
buildup that you creep into slowly, like an ugly bar.

at moments, there's a healthy Pink Floyd feel there for me, but only in
mood, perhaps. i enjoy everything about this piece. very well done and
the vocals are fabulous! thank you!!!

original &mdash 06/29/06 - 09:24:30 AM

and innovative. I like the assemblege of sounds, synths, guitar,
percussion (esp the tympani like rolls!) and of course your vocal work.
Good production and mix, its got a very cool feel, and sounds excellent
even on my little imac speakers. The progression is also interesting,
defies the tradiitonal ABA structure you hear so often.

WOW &mdash 06/29/06 - 08:45:41 PM

Makes me think of the guitarwork of the late great Jeff Buckley. and some floyd - just not pink maybe.
Really - I'm impressed, the musical "painting" (boys grow wings and fly) ... And a subject matter that often ends up sounding strangely cheezy. Not here...
Love the intro! And i am amazed by the production value. As i always tell people (ya- ich bin ein smartass) - there is something that those of us that started with rewinding tape on 4-tracks had to learn about sparse but effective arranging and production, that is soo hard to focus on when you play even in garageband with all the options, instruments and FX. Maybe go back to some of the intro as an outro?
....blessed by one chasing GOD...

WOW &mdash 06/30/06 - 08:16:38 AM

I really like that lead and harmony vocal; great voice. The melody line really draws you in. The subject matter a bit more serious than at first suspected, required another listen. A fine production throughout, sounds great here.

Excellent nice brooding song. I hear some Alice N' Chains in there... nice. Nice production. I wasn't too crazy about the pick scraping noise though. I'll have to check out some more of your stuff.

[ Reply to This ]

My apologies. &mdash 12/16/07 - 10:55:49 AM

I never thanked you for your kind comments,pick scrapings or not, your taking the time to comment is appreciated.

Godchaser &mdash 05/16/07 - 01:45:57 PM

great emotion here. I love the sounds you've created. And the emotion your voice carries and shares with the instrumentals is amazing.

The thing that 8piscean8 calls "pick scraping" (took me half a second to realize it was a part of the song and not my tummy rumbling : ) well, I like the tension it creates and the sad implications of what that sound might be in the context of your lyrics.

[ Reply to This ]

Thank you kindly &mdash 05/17/07 - 11:37:04 PM

estellie you are to kind.You are the only one to correctly comment about the 'pick scraping'and their intended purpose - strickly for tension's sake considering the context of the song - thanks for listening in and commenting - and please (rumble rumble)get something to eat!

Wonderful production and tune &mdash 06/11/07 - 08:47:09 AM

Thanks for visiting my song and commenting. It made me curious about your music. This is a great track. Only one comment (and it is a matter of taste): I expected that there would be a big build in the middle with the big drums coming in and a big solo from your great guitar playing. It didn't happen that way. I don't know if I was dissapointed or pleased that you did not write the song in that straightforward and predictable manner

Post some more stuff!!!! You have a way with lyrics and playing that I'd like to hear more of.

[ Reply to This ]

Thank you also... &mdash 06/12/07 - 09:21:31 AM

for your very gracious comments - true the only buildup to be found is in the intro - intitally I toyed with the idea of stretching the song a bit by adding more to it midway,but as per usual what I put down is pretty much the way it stays - for better or worse rewrites are as rare as hen's teeth with me!
Blessings,
- Godchaser

[ Reply to This ]

Did you ever &mdash 06/12/07 - 09:02:50 PM

think that maybe the intro would be a good solo right after the line "hello,goodbye" the change of rythym and tempo there would be interesting and would reinforce the next lyric. Just a thought.

[ Reply to This ]

Very impressive &mdash 06/18/07 - 09:09:20 PM

production. I love the guitar sounds. Your vocal is strong, and you sing with real feeling. The intro is long, but I think it works. I would agree with the previous commenter who suggested the intro might also be a good outro, maybe on a long fadeout? But this is just a suggestion. This is a powerful song - very well put together and performed. Nice work. Peace.

Very Impressive &mdash 07/02/07 - 09:13:11 AM

The guitars are great - just the right touch of layering and deft, straightforward playing that I don't hear very much anymore. Too many guitarists use the song to underscore their playing, not the other way around.

And your vocals... wow, your voice give me goosebumps, and it moves in perfect mood with the guitars. This one's a keeper - thank you!

[ Reply to This ]

Ric your making me..... &mdash 07/02/07 - 10:36:10 AM

blush throwing around all those lofty compliments - I am humbled by your words to say the least - just a hack musician that no more then 'plays' around w/ all this from time to time but certainly appreciates the time people take to listen & respond.

You have a very tight groove going on here - but I especially like the vocals which are looser, just hanging off the beat, very bluesy in a seventies meets grunge kind of way. I like the space you manage to put in between the phrasing. Good stuff!!

Exquisite performance, lean n' mean n' digging your scene. Reminiscent of Steely Dan. Vibe is so coool, when you sing in the high register you up the ante and all bets are off. Whatever that means ( I'm suffering from comment fatigue hence the obliqueness)
