Thanks again Jack Wookie, yeah migraines aren't all the same. I get the photophobia stuff too. The current meds have been a life changer for me. Thanks Ross, DaVinci Resolve makes it pretty easy to get cool special fx, at least the easier ones. jerry df thanks! Nigel, the vid doesn't compare to the fantastic stuff you do, but I do appreciate the comment. Kevin, Thank you!

I posted this a couple of years ago but didn't like it that much so this is a do over. I got the lyrics idea from an article about how to NOT write a blues song. For example the following lyrics don't fit the concept of a blues song: "My woman is insensitive to my needs" So that's the first line in my song. I used buzz words I found on the internet and I made up some of my own. Here's the rest of the lyrics: ============================================================================== Well my woman she's insensitive to my needs I said my woman she's insensitive to my needs I get no affirmation I get no focused communication I just can't take it any more -------------------------------- well my baby she don't respect my boundaries Yeah my baby she don't respect my boundaries I'm always the one to acquiesce cause she don't appreciate my uniqueness I'm so wired for love but there ain't no empathic connection I just can't take this any more ------------------------------------- gtr solo ---------------------------------------- my honey she don't know my love language Yeah my honey she don't know my love language we no longer set goals and achieve together no thoughtful gifts or genuine gestures so obvious We're on a codependent journey to consensual isolation I just can't take this any more No I can't take it any more -------------------------------------- my woman misinterprets my intentions I say my woman misinterprets my intentions I must lovingly express in words so simple she really must do an honest self appraisal hey I'm loving her bravely, but the sentiment it ain't reciprocated this can't go on any more can't take it, just can't take it no more ----------------------------------------------

I can see this as a theme song for a celestial object on the NASA website. It's very melodic which I find appealing and IMO seems to work with the bouncy Berlin electronica in the background. -Bjorn

Well done and quite mesmerizing too. The main percussion which I think is sort of like a kick drum with a filter sweep treatment sounds pretty cool. -Bjorn

A migraine headache put to music and video. I used to get bad migraines before there were effective medications to stop them. I'd be in bed for a couple of days in pain only getting out of bed to throw up in a bucket. Good times. But now one Imitrex tablet kills the headache before it can take hold.

KS, tom, Kevin. Thank you! I appreciate the comments.

Would make a nice soundtrack for a Halloween movie. I think it needs more variety though because a lot of sections just sound similar to me. But overall well done. -Bjorn

Very well done! Impressive performance of the lead brass instrument and outstanding drum track. -Bjorn

My dog accidentally swallowed a whole bag of scrabble tiles. We took him to the vet to get him checked out. No word yet… I told my doctor I have a problem with my left ear. “Are you sure?” I replied, “Yeah, I’m definite.” Michael Jackson put out some very good albums. But I think we can all agree his 7th album was Bad. I come from a family of failed magicians. I have 2 half sisters Cow farts come from the dairy air. What's the difference between gray and grey? One is a color and the other is a colour. I recently got squashed by a load of books... I've only got my shelf to blame. How do you make 7 even? You take away the s. I love going outdoors. It’s so much safer than going out windows. Is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is? credit: ThePunnyWorld

Nigel, Steve, Jack thanks I appreciate the comments. Wookie, I'm a retired pharmacist. I've prepared a lot of morphine drips but at a veterans' hospital they were used for heart attack and cancer patients. -Bjorn

Nigel, wonderful lyrics and a sentiment that resonates. Great production as usual. -Bjorn

Must have been tedious to put that movie together back in 1933. Lots of cutting and pasting, as in a knife and tape and not the digital definitions today. Nice work on syncing the lyrics to the beat. The Beatles nod at the end fit in very well. I think I'd try changing the Twin Peaks clip to monochrome and adding an old time look filter on it. And when that doesn't work I'd revert back to the original. Always interesting stuff you do, Steve. -Bjorn

Little White Pill I got the idea for the lyrics from a song by Gillian Welch called "My Morphine" I've always liked the song for its melody and for the not your usual love song subject. https://gillianwelch.bandcamp.com/track/my-morphine For my song I wanted to use the melody from Blueberry Hill but I couldn't hit the higher notes so the song evolved into something else. I haven't done a vocal in a while for obvious reasons. I used a lot of Melodyne which helped get me on pitch but it introduced some artifacts which I gave up on trying to fix. So the vocal isn't too good but it doesn't much matter. It was fun to do. Thanks for listening/comments.

Very very nice. Liked it a lot. -Bjorn

Promising start. Keep it up. -Bjorn
