Lies
This another reworking of an older song (this one from 2022), I wanted to revisit the vocals with a better performance and improve the lyrics because I thought the original title and chorus was a bit clunky.
The guitars were provided by @JanKun who did an amazing job with some strikingly beautiful and spicy chord and note choices.
Lyrics in the spoiler:
Tic Tac Toe
To the wire
Head to toe
In the mire
Hiding in the long grass
Trying to start a fire
But I'm stuck here alone
I curse and I should have known
But I am short of time
To be playing in this pantomime
And I, I just keep asking why
I listened to your lies
I wanted to believe in you that’s why
We choose what we believe
We lie and we deceive
We’re nothing if not human
hopelessly naive
There you go
Pants on fire
Said the thief
To the liar
Life is so confusing
With your feet held to the fire
And so I try to find
Some way to clear my mind
And shake off this heavy weight
But I'm tired and it’s getting late
And I, I just keep asking why
I listened to your lies
I wanted to believe in you that’s why
We choose what we believe
We lie and we deceive
We’re nothing if not human
hopelessly naive

It sounds even better than the 2022 version which I already liked so much! Nice re-work on the lyrics too ! I love it even more now !!
This is a hit tune, no wonder it played on BBC. Looks like the power duo did it again huh? Great song Richard and nice backing tracks Jankun.
Thanks - your guitars are what make the track IMO
Thanks, Jankun's guitar work really elevated the track IMO. (And for context the original version of this song was played on BBC radio Kent back in 2022).
I am really enjoying this track. It belongs back on the radio
It must have been quite a thrill hearing your song on the radio!
It's really interesting seeing your partnership with JanKun develop, thanks for sharing this :-)
As for the song, its trademark catchy chorus and production is great. I don't know how you manage to keep the quality output going for so long! Hats off!
Thank you!
It really was, this was the first song of mine to be played on the radio (there were two others after, Sparks, and Mirrors). It was sandwiched between The Beatles and Taylor Swift. 🤣
Thanks. To paraphrase Michelangelo, if you knew how much time it took for me to get there, you might not be so impressed
You and Michelangelo… both into rock. A very productive collaboration with @JanKun. You must be feeling good these days. Happy for you, bro.
Knowing how much time it probably took makes me more impressed :-)
I always seem to go through peaks and troughs with music so to see you post at least one new song every month is very impressive, especially given the continuously high standards.
Thanks, as ever. 🙏
The songs have improved over time, 10 years ago they were pretty terrible.
But I think all creative people need to do creative stuff. I know that if I don't have that outlet I get frustrated and unhappy, so I'm careful to always make time to do the things that matter to me. It does mean less leisure time for other activities, like movies, books, watching football, or playing games (all of which I've pretty much abandoned in favour of writing songs), but this is what I enjoy the most ultimately.
