Bit of a rocker this one. I hear a little Lydon in the vocals. Not sure the microphone could really handle it. Will you be able to? ™

326 – Second Life
Today’s track is a bit of a wailer if I’m going to be totally honest with you. There’s a section that really only a Vogon would love. Now that I come to think of it, perhaps that is who my target audience is! Anyway, I had much fun annoying the neighbours with this track so I thought I’d share the love and so you, too, can now annoy your neighbours by playing this really loud! (Of course, just remember not to expose your own ear drums!). ™
339 – Just Going To Say – Part ii
I’m enjoying spring and took a break from the weeding to plant this fresh track! Sorry for the blatant advertisement on the song cover – now-a-days anything free has advertising on it! Well this track was free and it doesn’t have any advertising!
…except for the bit on the song cover…
I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it! ™
322 – Pouring the perfect pint
A mellow number this one, something about the planet being blue… who knows what I’m mumbling on about? Not me! Anyway, enjoy this one and, as always, be sure to stopper your ears with candle wax prior to listening for maximum enjoyment!™
314 – June 8th
321 – Lakewood Girl
This one came out sounding a bit britpop so for any chance of commercial success I should have released it at least 25 years ago. Does this mean I am only 25 years behind modern music!? May have to take the time machine for a spin again. This track was written for the bass player of a band I play with. The plan is for my wife to sing it (hence all the references to “my husband” which sounds a bit quirky coming from me). Anyway, this ones for you Cris! Enjoy.
318 – Pure Idiot
This is one of those songs where you just listen to the tune and let the lyrics conjure up visions of exotic vistas, far away unknown alien planets where bees hang around in hives waiting for purple plants to pollinate them. Enjoy™
312 – Who You Are
What can I write about this song? Well it helps to be a little inebriated – ok I am exaggerating – simply being deaf ought to do be sufficient. The warbling! The Vogon poetry! Who you are man! Yeah!
310 – Living on the Lake
Well. What can I say about this track that hasn’t already been written. Yes. It’s stellar. From the first whistling firework to the mispronunciation of the word ‘Minnesotoe.’ It obviously stands (i.e. it has legs) to reason that this remarkable song (coming in at under 2 minutes) (Ed- one suspects this is because of the restrictions based on free Soundcloud accounts) will hold a place in the modern pantheon…somewhere near the bottom.
Probably because of the legs.™
307 – I’m trying to see round my glasses
It’s been a couple of months since my last post – time seems to speed up the older I get and it becomes more precious as a consequence. I did manage to grab a few zeptoseconds here and there to create the subject of today’s post, the song, aptly titled, “I’m trying to see round my glasses.” It starts lazily and builds to a more rocky section which, in hindsight, is reminiscent of The Cranberries, “Zombie” chorus. I say reminiscent because the singing is not of quite the same caliber as Dolores O’Riordan.
I’m not good enough to play the drums with the energy I wanted in the chorus so I used some digital tinkering – see if you can hear (/joke!) the bonkers drumming. Oh, another announcement – this is the first time I’ve used my own personal musical instrument in a song – see if you can identify it! TM
