Rain Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Something I wrote in the 90’s on an acoustic. Like everything I wrote back then, it was clearly inspired by the Beatles- I think maybe Glass Onion (the original version revolved around that Bm - G7 bit pattern). A few years ago, I started working on it again and it changed quite a bit. I shot a quick video while I was recording a basic bass line idea. I may have posted it on the old forum. Then a couple of weeks later I died. But just as I was about to choose between entering Stovokor or meeting all my musical heroes in hell, a bunch of over-zealous doctors pulled me back down. I tell you, Hippocrates and his stupid oath better watch their stupid ghost ***** next time I croak. Anyway, tonight I found myself working on that song again so I thought I’d update the audio part of the video - minus the live bass track obviously. There were little things that bugged me every time that clip popped in my feed. I must say it feels a little strange. Almost as if I was working on my own posthumous release. A one point, I even thought I was a hologram and I started worrying that I was about to go on tour. I don't have any holographic clothes to pack... Anyway, I realized that I’m like the poor man’s Ringo and Paul, working off of a poor man’s Lennon demos. I’m pillaging my own tomb, and Yoko doesn’t even seem to care. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those songs which I'd originally planned of having my now ex-wife sing. I'll either have to reach out to another friend who's always willing to help or to sing it myself (meh). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Templeton Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I like the vibe very much and the grunting bass contrasts nicely with the piano. I'd build something around that for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this. Need to expand that a little. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
