Description:
Another song from my band Theoball. We have now tried to take the recordings up one level. We have recorded the drums seperately, and are getting quite close to good recording. After that alle the other instruments have been recorded seperately.

Music, lyrics, guitars, keys, mixing and mastering by Angelo.
Vocals: ME!
Bass: Stig
Drums: Fredrik

Lyrics:
I got a passion that you dont understand
I find excitement in the slightly familiar
The only reason why I started a band
Was to be able to sing like a killer

I thought you knew that I just wanted a place in the sun
I thought you knew that i just wanted to make a good run

I may be shameless but I know what i want
I want the future to be more then just ashes
And the Direction is north west by south east
Our destination is all of our crashes

I thought you knew that I just wanted a place in the sun
I thought you knew that i just wanted to make a good run


Its overwhealming what you can do
If you got someone good with you
Its overwhealming what you can do
if you got someone clever with you
Its overwhealming what you can do
if you got someone next to you
Its overwhealming what you can do
if youre shameless, if youre shameless

I got a lifeline in the back of my hand
Its the feeling that you dont understand

I thought you knew that I just wanted a place in the sun
I thought you knew that i just wanted to make a good run
I thought you knew that I just wanted a place in the sun
I thought you knew that i just wanted to make a good run

Excellent tune. Sends me back to the early 80s when "alternative" was still "underground" in the early 80s. A really great sound and a really cool song.

oh a band wow i've been away for a while lol. the recording is sounding pretty good to me. i like the sort of rough sound of the instrumental. glad you're still playing. im running on empty so not much for criticism, just had to check for new stuff from my favorite macjams musician

wow &mdash 03/21/08 - 12:26:18 PM
inde, maybe, but mod, definitely. this is some lost yardbirds recording.... great tones. almost feels like you are there. bright, and happy use of aural space. live, and raunchy. i need more adjectives.....

Reminds me of a favourite Canadian band, "The Tragically Hip" with a similar vibe and exhuberant energy.

I really dig this tune.

Magnus, I just got to this on my list of "songs to listen to", and am very glad I did. The band seems like a really solid option for you. This is a great track, and the recording is definitely on the improve. I agree with Steve about "early REM", but I also think this has a sound of its own.

Recording is perfect for the genre and it sounds like everyone's having a good time doing it. Are you gigging much?

Really pleased for you that you have developed in this direction.

Great job guys!
Neil
