Iiight hep cats this is just a demo.
of i song i wrote and composed today
Just want some thoughts on it,
its extremely rough,
the audio sample just four bars looped
might have potential

i essentially wrote the song to a Ryan Adams tune called The Shadowlands
then basically changed one chord lol
i fuckin ripped him off, but he probably ripped it from a grateful dead song anywayz
one good turn deserves another

Forget Demo

potential lyrics

Forget

Verse 1
I was somewhere at the edge of town
watching the Hudson flow to the Sound
Thats where i saw her.
Picking lilac up from the ground
Then 8 Monthes fell down a well of misery
With my joy perched on the horizon
Just sitting there mocking me
knowing i'll never find her

But I'll never forget her...
I won't forget her....

(Verse 2)
I bought her a ring, then made her a tear
and left her here all alone
Was it my ego or was it my fear
That lead me away from my home
Walking through these shadowed lands
of this sky blue Mannahatta
Left A beautiful girl, A beautiful plan
and i still haven't found what i'm after

(Breakdown)
and i saw her at the edge of town
where we made love by that Sound
Where the hudson was slowly flowing
Where all my memories will soon be going
(repeat)

I can't forget her
Forgetting is not the answer,,,

updated the links,
i didnt like my first attempt at so i went back in the woodshed a while to work out a formidable prototype for the song
now it's decent enough for me to leave on the shelf
pardon the solo
i was just feelin the arrangement so much i just did a lil improv at the top of it
shitty yes, but hey , its Rock & Roll

i'm really hitting the country-folk genre pretty hard

for any of you cats who really dig my music
you really have to check my predecessor Ryan Adams...
i stole everything i know from him...
Seriously check out the ending of The Shadowlands and see how simialr it is to this...
not identical... just similar...
Shadowlands is superior,
but hey it never hurts to try

the woodshed...
and did you mean formaldahide.... ???

get the mic down at that woodshed..... COME ON COME ON.....


please just sing verse 1... pleeeeease....

cooooome ooooon

couldnt find this ryan adams shadowland song....
and i was thinking i was gonna get
a tom waites flem roll kinda feel....

ya making my ears work hard but i aint gonna complain....
I got my wish.... and thanks....

and those words i'm thinking are gonna need
some lyrical rounding out and some vocal aerobics
on your part...

wondering have you written while playing? EmbattledWarrior
i'd like to hear that too.....

i'mmajust loving what your doing...

OMGosh, you did it...

My ears are on overtime, but my wish finally
came true as well, so no complaints whatsoever...

Thanks.

That woodshed must be good for ya..

yah vocal aerobics maybe,
i didnt wanna do anything too extroadinary, cause i still don't have a pop filter for the mic, and didnt wanna damage it with dynamic singing,
so the whisper thing was just a safe way of singing,
and yah i've played while singing, thats how i came up with t sorta
Oh and The Shadowlands is on his Love Is Hell Album , my Favorite album of all time
if ya like i can send ya a copy,
he's not really Tom Waits like, but can have tendencies
he's sorta like Gram Parsons raped by the grateful dead

save ya woodshed bootleg n moonshine
bizzo for someone else...

is this the guy.... ???
