Jesse Screed Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 I had a crazy dream we were led into a room with the flick of a wrist and a snap of the fingers the herd was culled seven went to the gallows the benign entity nodded approval the sycophants positioned the callous rope just below the chin I wanted to look away but could not into the eyes of fate and power one and the other it was with such resolve the arbitrator commenced they all gasped together some less than others but all to the same fate the ***** winked at me should I cower? https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13962751 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garybrun Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Now that was "out there" magic mushroom stuff!!! This one was not for me... but I just wanted to acknowledge I listened to it. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Fogle Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Jesse, I think I get what you're shooting for but it's not my cup of tea. I think the lyrics have a good story to tell but the song format doesn't hold my interest. Even though you CLEARLY state this is an experimental song I hope you'll try again with a more traditional song format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I push the envelope way beyond, and then the bell curve flattens out, somewhere near the edge, this I know for sure. It's all in the spirit of experimentation, and it beats being a phone jockey. So thanks for the listen. My next song posting will be a more traditional format. I can do those too. I just need to have some discipline. Happy Holidays! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Severson Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 It's a great title, drew me right in. The lyrics are interesting too. Have to agree the music is a bit out there for me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglas Kirby Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 It's an interesting listen - I think I mentioned Zappa and Captain Beefheart before - I liked it better when you were more of a rock/pop writer - you wrote some really good songs back in the day.

PhonoBrainer Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Wild, and great. The title on your Soundclick has the men/ropes switched. How did you do the female / chipmunky vocal, is that your vocal, pitched up? The guitar part is actually pretty brilliant, to my ears. cheers, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Beefheart, Zappa, Wild Man Fischer; I/we have mentioned them all in the past. Jesse is without any doubt a very unique talent; I think the last tune he posted I described as Avant-Garde. I'm sticking with that. Jesse, I'm sure, when the muse hits, and she fancies some traditional Pop/Rock, he will pursue it. In the meantime, I say "Jesse, avant-garde on my brother"... T Just a note, this tune has way more "structure" than some he has posted.D Doesn't make it "better" or the less structured "worse". Its his art, he's hung it on the wall, enjoy or not: that's up to you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
