Description:
this was originally one of soundhound's (tony's) many EXCELLENT instrumentals. i loved it from the very first listen. tony got ahold of me and asked it i wanted to try out some vocals on it...naturally i was ecstatic!

this is kind of a different one, so i hope it's to your liking! it happens to be a song about death...but looking at it in a different way, or from a different perspective. please try not to be too hard on it just because of the subject matter...try to see this event in under a different light. thank you.

tony, thank you so much for giving me a go at this one...it was a TON of fun, and a nice challenge for me. i really hope your pleased with the end results!

sincerely,
age

Lyrics:
THIS SIDE OF THE GROUND

blankets of black silk
plenty of company these days it seems
forgot what i felt
i'm resting so peacefully, please let me be

this side of the ground...this side of the ground

no more of your worry
no more of your goddamn routine
no more of your hurry
this side of the ground's where i'll be
this side of the ground's where i'll be
this side...this side
of the ground's where i'll be

finally got my name where all you can read
no noisy neighbors
sticking noses where they shouldn't ever be
not again, not again, no not again

this side of the ground...this side of the ground

no politics, no taxes, no rent, no more of you
no, no, no, no, no heartache
oh god, could it be true?

no more of your worry
no more of your goddamn routine
no more of your hurry
this side of the ground's where i'll be, yeah yeah
this side of the ground's where i'll be
this side of the ground's where i'll be
this side of the ground's where i'll be

this side of the ground...this side of the ground

this side's where i'll be
oh baby, oh baby...where i'll be
oh baby, oh baby...where i'll...

This is really cool and very well put together! Lots of depth in sound!

The term "wall of sound" applies here!

what a cool mix up &mdash 04/21/08 - 09:41:26 PM
the vocals you created sound tailored made and fit perfectly. somehow I keep thinking it's adventurous as a heavy Faith No More tune, excellent!

But my two ears liked the sounds and the singing. Cheers.

Definitely a cool mix of styles. I'll have to go check out soundhound now. It's great the way you made the vocals fit right in.
Well done.

That beat is sick. Gets you right off the bat and you don't have to wait around for the good parts - they're right there. The intro guitar work is perfect. It's got a Prince sound. Yes, I said Prince. Who happens to be one of my favorite guitars players (extremely underrated). Thanks for this!
