Description

Well I got so much positive feedback on my last song, it gave me such inspiration that I just couldn't wait another six months... :-)
This is the funkiest, jazziest thing I've ever done, (and probably will do). Bare in mind that I'm really a metal-head gone astray. Please comment! Please vote! That's why we're all here, right?

Lyrics

He got up and he got dressed
And went out into the night
Came out of the shadows
There was not a soul i sight

Like a ghost in vain he walks
Through the deserted streets
He knows just what is wrong
He knows what he needs

Once again he's been waiting
Once again she's let him down
Once again this empty feeling
Once again he's left alone

He'll just keep on moving
To rid himself of thoughts
The click of tired feet
Echoe as he walks

	Good stuff Great guitar sound. You've got a very good voice. Reminds me a little of The Chillipeppers(vocals)and The Edge on guitar. LL Check out my latest song called Googolplex Times Zero

Thanks, that's some praise
I usually work a lot with the vocals (take a look at my other stuff) but this is really clean, no backing vocals or anything, no screaming and no growl. If "just me" is good enough, that's great. So the input is much appreciated!

	Thanks As You might have guessed, I'm not a guitarist. Come to think of it, I'm not a singer either. What the hell am I doing here? Oh, having fun, that's it... ;-) Thanks for Your input! /Al --- Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.

Enjoyed this ...

.. the vocals do have a twinge of R�d Het Chili Paprikar .. and if the guitars were cleaner, (less distortion and track echo/delay) and a little more manic bass .. it could be one they'ld do. The little guitar break, the guitar sounds a little out of tune, one string flat by the sound of it.. but not drastically, (small nit-pick) .. that section gives the U2-esque/EDGE thing. You asked about verses: I think it is pretty well balanced. Arrangement suggestion: I'd play with a pre-vocal 'verse' section that has just drums & grooving bass up with some 'less' guitar, like the odd stab or shorter funked bit .. let it build into the bit you have with the vocals in on top, it will work well to drop it down a notch after each chorus and re-build. Thanks for sharing this fun jam.

	Six months Lol, well summer's coming up and hopefully I'll have some time to play around some more. My keyboard broke down, so it'll probably be a few more guitar based things... thanks for the input, very much appreciated! /Al --- Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
