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 press”play” below.
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 w/ all else, that was fun! You sound a little like Joe Walsh (“Life’s Been Good to Me So Far”)….I also LOVE your new profile pic…I don’t like ‘depressed Larry’ from the start of your post & I’m so glad you put your song at the end to pull me out of the funk I was in after reading about your depressed state….
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.
