Oh those British and their whimsy... &mdash 10/30/07 - 07:41:02 AM
We Americans never quite manage to produce first generation whimsy...we have to buy it in import stores, and by then it's never as fresh... Along with scones and Devonshire clotted cream...
This may be rough-hewn, but it's a song, all right, and actually a nice one. Another that I could hear a band like Belle and Sebastian do...
It's neat to hear you sub-vocalizing the picking pattern...
Also great to hear someone put the phrase 'comfy chair' into a piece of music...

Yes...it is my current mission to get slightly underused words and phrases into songs. On Waking Life I got 'inimitable' in there and on this one 'sedentary' and 'comfy chair'. Its like musical scrabble to me!
Cheers for listening
Steve

Being an (previously) active girl &mdash 10/30/07 - 09:23:25 PM
I really like this song.
But I just like the song. :) And the warm acoustic-ness of it. Or whatever it might be called. [ Reply to This ]
So John Sebastian! &mdash 10/31/07 - 04:01:38 AM
Lovely song Steve - I suspect that this style is what you do best, although I love your Strat playing too.
Love Ed's "first generation whimsy" comment too :)
Cheers,

Less than active boy.... &mdash 10/31/07 - 10:35:06 AM
I love the line about the comfy chair. That's my life in a nutshell.
Nice and fun. Enjoyed it. [ Reply to This ]
Ray Davis would be proud of this! &mdash 11/05/07 - 06:03:49 AM
A excellent little ditty Steve and it seems to benefit from being 'rough hewn'. Brilliantly understated.
