Description
Here's some Luna Soul for you. Actually, it's an old, old song, written in the dark recesses of my youth about the fear of being scorched by love. I relearned it and rerecorded it recently. The lyrics are immature but hopefully you'll find something universal in the song. We've all been singed... yet yearn for more. Prepare for a feeding....

Lyrics
Taste the Fire

I lived my life in hopes of danger
there's nothing that I wouldn't do
and now that you're a stranger
I guess I'm bent on you

And I don't need the pain
but I've done it again
I know I'm starving babe
and I need to feed on you

I've never been so damn compelled to taste the fire
I'm consumed by appetite
If I want it, I need it, I'll get it, I'll breathe it
I'll become the fire
cos I'm posessed and burning white

And I don't need the pain
but I've done it again
I know I'm starving babe
and I need to feed on you

Glowing is the loneliness that swims inside my head
shoot it down - shoot it down
the hunger oh my hunger makes me want to scream
press it down - press it down

And I don't need the pain
but I've done it again
I know I'm starving babe
and I need to feed on you

It's a...
...lounge song!!! but a very mellow one. What a wonderful job you've done in arranging this, and your singing is smooooooothe throughout. Very nice production and a most pleasant listen. The guitar licks cookin' in the background are really pleasant...Nice to hear this "sound" and especially your controlled singing. [There's a line in "Antigone" by Sophocles from the "Ode To Love" that reads, "And Aphrodite laughs." Yep. We keep asking for the pain over and over again. The ancient Greeks had it right, apparently. ]
Peace.
Paul

Too right...
The role of the chorus in Greek tragedy was to agonize over the repetition of our mistakes. Lounge it is then if you say so Maestro!

Nice
and smooth. Like the deep smooth vocal going on here. This song glides along beautifully although i noticed a slight glitch at about 2mins 4seconds which slightly ruined the smoothness?! Maybe it's my ears or my playback method...
Cool tune

nice
I like the smooth sound. There's a crackling in the verses. I like it a lot. Is it part of a sample or was it added later?

That's actually part of the drum sample - I thought it sounded cool!

made me smirk
I love the smooth jazzy music and great singing, that belies (and makes up for) the slightly-trite teenage-style lyrics (I wrote a bunch of those too!) The lyrics aren't that bad, actually. There's a very soft scratchy set of clicks through a lot of the song, that almost sound like part of the percussion, but also sound like software buffer-overrun clicks, and tend to distract from the music. Nice guitar work, but great singing!
ttfn,
Drakonis

Oh yes... you too?
Perhaps we could do a cheesy lyric song together. As above, I kept the scratches because I thought they sounded good... perhaps not!

This is

Cos I'm Possesed And Barry White
I wasn't expecting this, but it was a real pleasant surprise. You have a "Barry White Ate Lenny Kravitz" cool voice on this tune. I think this genre suits you so well.

The dreamy almost bossa nova style guitars blend well with the WEEN-like distorted lead. Again, I was surprised.

Thanks for the download!

Sweet liquid goodness...
Egggzelent SONGwriting/performing/mixing and all that makes this a tasty listen.

Love the sound of this.

It's rare that you hear something that can emote one's system the way this one does.

It takes me.

One of those tunes that reminds me of how lucky we are to have this site.

Just beautiful, man.

Thanks. Dion
