This is great sounding tune Andy! -Mike
An eclectic musical delight! really like the powerful and very distinctive vocal great guitar work. An easy rate .
I just really love this song!! LOVE IT!
yeah, baby! nice rocker man, really nice..wow!
2 inch dick - ha ha - still funny the fifth and sixth time you said. Such a clever tune, both musically and structurally, with so many differnt sections somehow fitting seamlessly together. a lot of work has gone into this and it has paid off big time. the vocal delivery makes the lyrics even better than they actually are. absolutely brilliant. should been three weeks at number ONE. original as it gets on here.
Your production Q as always is spot perfect. Great writing, composition and performance as well. R8! I enjoy your comments on my tracks very much. You always offer up a suggestion for improvement. Thanks!
Nice tunage Andy, lyrics are awesome. Reminds me of Friday and Saturday nights around my area. Great topic and delivered perfectly. Production is as always top quality. Love the "moron" punch at the end. Quality gear mate!!! Barry
In a lateral way you have to thank the moron for a musical way in to this crackin piece. From the sureal space cadet 'Is something wrong'? questioning of others becuase you don't seem to fell or see what they see to the hate filled mindset of understanding the self as the victim. The musical flavours wrapped in and around the vocal/lyric push both sides forward wonderfully. Superb Andy Rob
Wow! Had a similar thing happen to me. Only diff was they hauled ME away and I nearly got done for it all. Typical. The music accurately describes your bitterness right enough dude. I like the opening section well enough, just think you could have pounded down the anger harder behind the lyrics. Good track on the whole tho. Good clear recording too. Rated dude.
like the different feel to the different sections, the twists, the anger, the story telling, nice work mate (and cheers for your comments on my stuff, much appreciated!) tim
Very nice!!! The voice sometimes kinda reminds me of David Gilmore. My favourite genre too! Good work, Andy!!!
Yeah, others have really said what I'd comment on here. Very well-written and produced. I love the guitar part in that shouty mid-section. This is something of an epic, surely the basis for a rock musical??? Top stuff, rated.
All that power and energy coming from one small room.Ive heard the song three times now ,and its one of those songs that grow on you.Nice dreamy start to lure you in, and then you twist it piece on its head just for good measure. Great vocals to match a (cheers chink of pint glasses)brillant song.
Wow, don't know if there's much more I can add to what has been said already below, except to say this is an absolutely incredible song. I am in awe of the musicianship and the production elements on here. I like the unexpected parts and it all flows together so cohesively. Really impressive. wow.
Get a Trick of the Tail vibe from this song mate! Still hints of early Genesis with the kick drum and the second part is killer ! Great guitar work and build up! Very prog and very JO! Great track Andy...one of your best to date! Really ground out the vocals too...nice work mate!
Hey, this the first song I've listened to with my new near-fields, and I've got to say it was a great way to christen them :-) Everything just fit sonically so well..I'm so jealous D'Arcy
Strong retort to a tough situation, but, these situations occur every day. U have captured the incident well, and described the culprit exactly for what he is....basically, and like so many others....a coward! Chord progressions got too much for me, but ive come to expect you to step out of the ordinary boxed variations and produce somethin a bit different. I seem to be goin more simplistic these days, while ur goin the opposite. Worked for the Floyd etc etc....so, more power to ya. U produce really well, and i could choke on my own jealousy!...lol rated...for stickin by ur ideas, and havin the balls to be different.
Like this James it tells it like it is and with oodles of charisma. It's very much you - and as a pseudo folkie I like a song with a story. A worthy rate
Andy I am so happy I stopped in for a listen, your going on my mp3 player for my walks and cycle and runs and just for a ride in the car,Because my friend this is up there with mamas meatballs, sharp cheese which I love btw I eat way to much of it lol :-) You amaze me with your skills and your grand performance Oh Btw everyone in the other room also heard it and they want more, I'm stealing that download before you disable it! Vin
Musically and vocally i found this, as others, really one of the best, and productionally excellent as per. Sounds like you needed this one!
Very unique, very interesting. I really, really liked the first half of this. And the second half does what it is intended to do. It is kinda like a mini rock opera. Really like the vocal on the first part, too. Buttons
Wow! A little stunned and at a bit of a loss for words, but here goes...This is first-rate songwriting, first of all, ripping the scabs off and showing a particularly ugly wound, hope it was cathartic for ya! Performance and production was simply brilliant, and I really liked the way you set this up in stages for a climactic finish, the scene midway where the fellow introduces himself as God then lays into ya had me wondering what you'd do with the remainder of the song but you certainly pulled it off. Glad you got that off your chest and glad I had a chance to hear it...pushing buttons now.
This is a very sad song really - everyone a victim - In the end though I felt more sorry for the guy who is clearly a sicko! - Not sure if that is what you intended? A lot of brilliance in the delivery and pacing as Dawn says more eloquently than I could - and any song which engages with the listener on an emotional level gets a thumbs up from me -
Ta v much Dawn - you understand it... anger in the 2nd part... and loathing
I think the two parts are deliberately very different and it is obvious why...apart from the fact that the guy is stunned at what's happened to him, he seems detached from the world which is why it sounds spacey like the Sgt Pepper Beatles stuff or Floyd...but the anger in the second part, the fabulous way you changed your voice, the hard hitting and less lyrical sounding lyrics (you know what I mean Andy) is all magnificent and reminds me of Bohemian Rhapsody when Mercury changes from softly reminiscent to outright begging for his life. And the change of music becomes more punky or thrashy or whatever...just divine. It's a masterpiece....and of course gets all my buttons pressed, baby!
I like the track....lyrics are quite literal.....would prefer it less so but musically fantastic. Kevin Mooney
ps it's not polar it is Kaesmel, never got that bit changed after we changed our name, Cheers Justine
hi, this song is great, your voice sounds really smooth and you have done a really good job with the story telling. It certainly makes you realise all the emotions that were going on around you after the event. Great four minutes of my time thank you (well 8 so far now actually)
Sounds great Brother Andy, agree with all below, should be a chart topper fer sure.
i thought it to be kind of a cross between floyd and zappa influences! you have a way with unusual chord structures Andy... they work well for you! I agree with Ricky, this is one of your best vocal performancesand lyrically... played and sang your ass off there mate...
Very Floydian to begin with! Fantastic! 'He told me he was God...' great lyric! Great outro beat.
Really enjoyed this one, I like tracks that tell a story and this one has a cracker. Great work, rated.
You have a great voice and a awesome production.
I really like the backround music going on, very old skool sounding tune.Nice story telling with ya lyrics. Couldnt help but laugh at the "loser with a 2 inch dick" part lol. Enjoyed my listen
Great song Andy. I love the way the lyrics suggest you are just lounging around enjoying the sunshine at first but unfold to give the full picture. Like the change of attitude musically halfway. Agree with Ricky to a degree maybe the lyrics in the second half aren't as strong as the first but still, all in all a great song. Musically excellent. Rated. Craig
Fab!
Hey Andy. Missed the first WIP progress and kind of glad I did. This is a terrific song! Don't know whether I like Snookered or this one better but what's the diff? As was mentioned, great story telling and love the way you "get the events out of your system". Truely great songwriting and gets my last N with an R and anything else the darn thing will let me push...cept you around. Wouldn't want you writing a song like this about me...venemous it is and a bit "wounded" if you know what I mean...DM
This is one of my favorite songs I've ever heard from you. I too can hear the PF vibe a bit, but it's your own style that pulls me in. Great song my friend. EZ rate Eric Bad Love Junkie
Caught the WIP earlier, so you already know I loved the first section, now I can enjoy the full version with the rock out ending. Actually enjoyed the second part, there is a real bite to the vocal, and it is very well arranged, I do like that seagull sounding guitar thing swooping over the top (more early fleetwood mac than floyd this time lol) Dont have any issues with the lyrics whatsoever, the story of the song seems pretty self evident , never had any confusion following it. Great track, gets my vote :)
i enjoyed this as a work in progress and enjoying the more up 2 speed version...first half of the song was amazing....kind of felt like pink floyd doing a beatles cover...very well wrote and performed first half...musically the second half is better or as good as the first half...a bit more balls is all...i didn't like the change in lyrics from that point tho...somewhat lost me lyrically second half...i think you bottled out of it and went for words that rhymed to much...or maybe trying to tell more of a story...for me it lost its way lyrically...but i bet i'm the only one who thinks that... thumbs up... cos the music is as good as anything i have heard from yourself and the first half vocals probably my fav from you also
LOL Andy. Moron with a 2 inch dick. LOL. But not so funny because of the raw emotion I feel here. You've got some really cool chords in the song. You sang the hell out of this one. Very powerful story telling.
Many thanks to Storm Horses, Allan, MoonTurnedBlue, Riddle, Eric, Joseph, Ricky and Rich for the encouragement while it was WIP
I began recording songs in January 2006. Genre is rock, pop and jazz with electronica dabbles on a few toons. It's a hobby for me. I record using cubase.
Home studio using a PC, yamaha keyboard, a couple of guitars and a Rode NT1A mic. I use cubase for recording/mixing and wavelab for mastering.
A strange fact - in 1976, the term "Mega" was 1st coined by me and came into general usage as meaning something great or awesome. I was an apprentice electrician at the time and "mega" was a technical prefix meaning "a million times". I remember that all my fellow students started using the term so maybe this was down to me. Nobody hardly says it anymore so i guess it's run it's course.
Another strange fact - i designed a telephone for use in a mortuary. Dead interesting lol!!!
Nice strong melody & energy to this track, would be great for the movies.
wow i felt like i was actually at a pink floyd concert excellent tune.
James Oakwood is a new name to me from MP3 Unsigned but hey, he is a man in love with his bed obviously so he's cool by me. He's also a rock artist which, as you well know, definitely fine by me. According to his webpage, he's only been writing and recording since 2006 and features a tasty pick of all his kit (is that a Dell?); the kind of stuff you need to make rock music. Even
Wooohooo!
A refreshing track about my fave place, I love it!
Keep em comming Mr Oakwood!!
