Maybe Someday
I need a break.
My previous post, Another Memorial, got me down and I still feel like shit. Many of the truths I believe are crappy, but I know that the world sux and I put it out of my mind and laugh and live my life. But after writing something like that I can't forget it easily.
Making music has always been good therapy for me, so this past week I fired up my home recording system, which is basically just a PC with some special software on it, and recorded a song, just to get my mind free. I started from scratch, and I played and sang all the parts, except for the drums, which I sequenced. Extremely careful readers will know that this is a song I wrote a long time ago. I just thought it would be easier to (re)learn the recording process if I already knew the song.
It's just an experiment, folks, but I have posted the project if you'd like to hear it. Just click on one of the buttons below. Both files are MP3. The low-resolution one is 2 megabytes, and the high-resolution version is 4 megabytes. Either of them will take a while if you're on a slow connection. Sorry, I just can't stand to make the sound any worse by compressing it more.

Oh, yeah: The song is called Maybe Someday. Turns out it was good therapy, and it made me feel better.

That was so fun...still tapping my pen on my desk, shaking the feet. Right on!
Now that WAS fun. Talent just pouring out of those finger tips.
BTW...awesome profile pic! I like this one...it's crazy. LOL
Now I want a beer. I'm impressed.
I agree: good photo, good song. Hey, was that a picture of you naked? Wow, you sure have a big--shadow!
Those who liked it - I'm relieved you did. I tried really hard for a really long time to sell my music. Now I'm ready to give it away.
Next, I have to write a 21st-century protest song, to stop this guy from whining.
Adreeyin - This one was fueled not by beer, but by Black Velvet. Still, I'll join you.
t1 - I don't stay depressed long. You know what will cheer me up, baby.
Ron - Not naked, but before the picture was cropped, you could see that I had no pants on.
Larry, you got the goods.
