Nice to hear from you Daryl! Love "you put the fun in dysfunctional", great lyric! Excellent mix, kick and bass done well, snare's got some oomph, funky rhythm guitar could come up a bit. Thanks for sharing, Timbo

Thanks you two! Believe it or not, I worked with ChatGPT on an early and incomplete version of the story and lyrics. It suggested I try something different from the usual "trade your soul in a deal with the devil" trope. I didn't use it to write any of the lyrics, they just kind of came to me, but for lasering in on the story line. The only "lyric" that I did let it write was to name the fish Gilligan. Timbo

Had a bit of fun with this song where the devil bargains with a young man who has an unusual request. Sorry about the lead guitar, my fingers are getting old and fumbly. And it's me on the rest of the synths and bass. There are some swear words, so beware. i waited for the father at the backdoor to the club five knuckle shuffle in my future, time for some Brandi Love red eyeball swimmin in the peephole, like somethin from another song door opened and there he stood in his technicolour raincoat flashing me with a great big smile he stood there flashing me he glowed like a big *****in meteor, the heat was stingin my eyes smelled like some kinda Mount Vesuvius in his chintzy Halloween disguise his voice boomed like the mother of all bombs, his hooves tap tap tapping on the floor he said, folks call me Satan round here, what the hell can i do for you boy (for you, son) what can i do for you boy didn't know if i should sit on his lap but i threw caution to the wind listened politely to my request gave me a two fingered salute full of sin (as above, so below) forked tongue licked jagger lips and he brought life back into my dead fish in the matter of payment, he laughed, i think this one's yeah this one's on the house yeah this one's on the house when i snuck back into my bedroom, i dropped Gilligan into his tank the water boiled like chemistry class and his little friends slowly sank thoughts of Brandi Love disappeared, and i swear i heard the devil laugh in the matter of payment, he chuckled, yeah this one, this one's in the tank yeah this one's in the tank

I want "undo" on my gravestone.

Another great song! I always hear a touch of Zappa when you play your sweet, sweet music.

Lordy you're some kind of player! Love the lyrics: "singing with the coyotes, running neath the stars at night" ... just wow. Thanks for this song Mark. Timbo

It IS a nice song, Jesse. I'm sorry for your loss.

I like the song, Keith. Lyrically, it has the feel of "This One Goes Out To the One I Love", but is very much different. Great singing, can you tell us what you did to reprocess a 40 year old vocal? Did you have to do any pitch correction or do you sing pretty well in tune, like it sounds? The drums sound great, as does the lead guitar. Maybe the snare could cut through a touch more. IMO the mix is a bit dry in the reverb department and the bass needs to be moved back, while the rhythm guitar can come forward. As for the lyrics, well done. I liked "I'll build a wall around your brain"! Thanks for sharing, Timbo

I enjoyed this one too, treesha!

I really enjoyed the intro and liked how the song took me places. It kept changing throughout, which is a problem in this genre IMO. Tanks for sharing and HNY! Timbo

Thanks Treesha for the listen and comments. I tried for Radiohead and it came out wrong but I kept on going. These are definitely the 2 that fled!

Excellent work!

This is top notch, ksband, I have nothing to add! Timbo

Thanks to KSband, this one sounds much better.

Thanks KSband, I'll look into it. There was something nagging at me but you've nailed it I think. Timbo
