.. Over and Over

shoham gave feedback to tawmy for “Over and Over”:
I'm not buying the vocals. It's a nice groove though for sure. I mean with the vox though I'm trapped between "OK Tom Waits Jr" and "Oh no Oscar the Grouch", but I really feel like a better vocal track would do more justice to this tune.

Who did you get to do that guitar track Stevie Ray Vaughn????

Thanks Shoham ... I was trying to unify the vocals with "ToGeHer Love' and 'Know Where To Run' , my other reworked blues pieces.
I have several well known 'shredders' that I work with to add the tasty guitar parts.

Has a confessional feel to it.
I did not like this at all at first, but it's really got a Holden Caulfield *No room for phonies* ethic to it.

.. 21st Century Misery

shoham gave feedback to Gremlin for “21st Century Misery”:
Weird track -- in a good way. Has a French sensibility somehow -- like an existential crisis in both the music and the lyrics. They match.

Hey, do you know this track? I just heard it on an independent station, it's from 2005:

Those chords are weird. Came up with them a few years ago. Maybe as far back as 2013 as it was going to be a track on an abandoned Sleeping Ships concept album. Never really had lyrics that fit the mood til recently. This the revised version after years of editing hah.

I have not. Will check er out

DID I SAY IT SOUNDED FRENCH!?!?! Interesting sounding book. What are the chords or is that proprietary?

Haha I know. It actually wasnt inspired by that but I have read it. Not something you want to read unless in a happy state of mind, although it is funny at times (maybe just to me and my warped view).

Not proprietary, just not sure of the names. Guitar tuned full step down. First chord is the oddest. It is a C shape, but instead of fingering second fret on D string, finger the first, and instead of first fret on the B string, finger the 3rd. Root is a A# I guess. Then just go up and down between A# and F note on 3rd fret of sixth string. Second chord is Bmaj9 with similar bouncing up and down in the bass.

Prechorus type part is G#maj to G#7, up to C#maj7 then bouncing to C#dim every now and then. On the third time through, after the G#7, it goes to Fmaj then Cdim then to the chorus chords

Chorus chords are F#minor6 to D#minor7 back to the weird A# chord from the verses/opening (maybe having actually taken theory and stuff youll know the name of it as I do not hah)

The 21st century for me arpeggio part is hard to explain. I dont have a guitar handy so forget the fingering for that. Ill get back to you!

I Love This ! ... great song... good production.. I often don't like my voice either so I change it up as much as I can. I am also somewhat of a misanthrope at times ... the more humans I meet, the more I love my dog !

I liked how this one turned out. A big dumb rock song but with some major 7ths thrown in there to keep it interesting

Great catchy tune ... nice vocals and lyrics, great strumming of awesome chord changes after verse drone ... good twist in the bridge finale' too.

Thanks Tawmy! I always liked this song. Came together really quickly, had chords, first verse, and chorus written within 15 mins one morning.

It is interesting the two tunes you commented on have very similar lyrics. I wrote them back to back. I thought it would be interesting to have songs where the verses are juxtapositions (here each like starts with either " so easy" or "so hard" where in 4th of July is "like heaven" or "like hell")

Groovy beat. Is this a new direction for you, man? This is I think your strongest vocal track to date, in my opinion. Awesome cover too -- is that Sasquatch??

Love the electric/mellow guitar outro.
