If I Was God

Description
Hey all,

I'm posting the rest of my library finally.

This one was my entry for the CBGB Challenge. I took out the crowd noise and tried beefing up the guitar a little bit. I give you fair warning, I'm no singer, but it was a "punk" tune. So I figured what the hell. It couldn't hurt.

Thanks Len.
I appreciate the return listen. I still cringe when I hear my voice (lol), but I'm happy that you enjoy the tune. I ended up remixing and beefing up the guitars a bit and deleting the fake crowd thing. I was just irritating the crap outta me.

Thanks again for the comments, I appreciate it.

Not bad for a mortal.
You had me at "cunka-chunka!" Nice shredding! I wish I could have squeezed out a punker in time for the CBGBs deadline. Almost has a live-band sound, just the vox is a little clearer than your standard club fare.

All in all a fine tune despite your being a mere mortal.

Thanks man. Ya, the challenge was for a "live" club feel type of thing, so I'm happy that you hearing that a bit. I ended up re-mixing the whole thing "trying" to give it a more "studio" quality, but since I recorded it with that intention of it being a "live" tune, I guess it will always have that quality.

Thanks for the listen and comment. I'll be getting around to your profile soon.

Thanks again.

Yes!
I believe so. Many bad eggs have ruined it for the few good ones.

Thanks for the listen and comment Doug.

I appreciate it.

Tear!
Nice riffage brother! I dig it! However, seven is a mighty tall order...... I'm all "ears" though! Actually, it's my schnozola that's most "prominent" Scottish heritage you see.... goes right along with an expansive forehead, aft included and of course, the more then ample size of my (rhymes with long) Lol..... A nice dash o' the punk for certain..... You should come by and sample my sorta new one, if you haven't already..... Good to hear you again friend!

Always,

Ax

Thanks Ax
It's good to see you around again. I dug your metal "bed". Really dark and cool chordage. I left you a comment.

I'm glad you liked this one. I'm thinking of expanding into the "punk" genre a little more. It was really fun to do.

Thanks again for stopping in and commenting. I appreciate it.

Wow
Thanks Willy. I'm kinda shocked that you enjoyed it to that degree. I was kinda apprehensive about reposting it because of my singing. Anyway, I'm happy you liked it. I hope you find my other tunes enjoyable also. Thanks again for stopping by to check it out.

I appreciate your comment a lot.

Authentic
UK Subs.

I say no more.

Well, I need to. This is OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!! It it so 1977 it makes me gag and recoil back to the day.

More, more & more!! Metallica in GBGB-land.

God/money/the planet - all good punk ideals. And a good splattering of explicit. Just brilliant. Apologies for lateness.

Thanks Jim!
I actually really enjoyed playing and writing this tune. I wasn't so focused on "getting it right" when I did it, so it kinda let me be a bit reckless when it came to getting it down which was a relief since I'm sort of a perfectionist when it comes to my music. Since then I've been pondering about expanding more into this genre and seeing what else I can come up with.

Anyway, THANK YOU for the reply and kind words.

I appreciate them a lot.

If I Was God
The chord progression is the same one that almost every sad pop song uses including "Torn" by Ednaswap, "Glycerine" by Bush, etc. I the lyrics are really bad but at least you're trying to say something and there are a few interesting lines. My biggest suggestion is that you don't need to always rhyme, or at least sometimes you should look for a rhyme that doesn't immediately occur to you. And I can tell you can play the guitar for sure, but try to do more than just play chords and solo. The guitar is a really cool instrument and you can do tons of things with it that you wouldn't think of right away.

Hello guys and gals. Some of you already know this from reading the description on my last tune. I'm taking a little break from writing "blues" tunes for a while. I kinda "hit a wall" so to say, and I feel that my blues songs (and guitar playin... [see more]
