There will be a country song...
...at some point, but all this real life keeps getting in the way of making up things:

Great video! I like how it ends with Renton falling to the floor.
I like it! Nice video too.
Very slick.
Thanks for the notes @richardyot and @monzo.
@mkell424 I remember reading a long time ago that on 'Sticky Fingers' one song was ostensibly a hymn to the love of a woman but was instead about the love of drugs and another, apparently about drugs, was actually about a woman.
The lyrics/poem on this piece, while on the face of it about a woman, are really a memory from another life (it seems now) and how the desire for China White was an almost sensual and certainly all-consuming, physical, need. And thus Renton, even though Irvine Welsh hadn't yet dreamed of him at the time I'm writing about....
Hard times produce a lot of material. Or maybe it's just that the larger spikes of either good or bad stick out in the memory more...
Where's this 'song of the month' thread then? I'm looking forward to hearing your hoedown Johnny. For me, my new submergence within Gadget means I'll be donning shoulder pads and big hairstyles for an 80's synth extravaganza.
@monzo I don't believe our Lord and Master ( @richardyot ) has created one for April yet, but like some force of cruel nature (April, geddit?) it will no doubt be along in due and crushing course.
As for my song, when I had a kingdom I was the King and when I had an empire I was the Emperor, but now I'm just a country....
I'm a bumpkin?
@JohnnyGoodyear I agree. I know from my own experience drugs are similar to the desire for a woman. When you are in a relationship it is like a drug. You think about her all the time and like you said she becomes a physical need. Like Brian Ferry said "Love is the drug and I need to score".
Another good track / video. Just got to it. Like it. Very sensual.
Thanks chaps. It was a sudden thing, but took more time than I would have figured, as ever.
@JohnnyGoodyear: I love the juxtaposition of sound/lyric/image in this one. Incredibly powerful postmodern panache.
Or maybe it's just that the larger spikes of either good or bad stick out in the memory more...
When I get to thinking about good and bad, I'm ALWAYS reminded of Hamlet: "[...] for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so."
Not suggesting things weren't bad; just trying to give a nod to the power of perception.
Quite the effective cautionary tale in less than 1:30. The groove and vox sound great together, although I'll admit, the vocal cuts are so rapid-fire I have trouble understanding the lyrics. Given the subject matter, I suspect that's no accident.
Ironically, sexual performance is nearly eliminated while engaged in the "oh such so an elicit affair" of the whore of opiates.
Almost like love, so warm all over. So comforted.
Only to realize that it is not warmth, yet the numbness of the soul.

Untitled #3 (wash me)
The piano of my tongue
plays the white keys and the black
across the lacquer of your ribs
the hollow of your back
and with every chord I kiss
within the instrument of you
I hear the simple sound
of our love aloud anew.
@RustiK
Poetic in your own way there my friend. Your summation is about right. And I wrote it in terms of a woman for various reasons, not the least of which was to avoid the direct glorification that some might misconstrue.
It was for this reason that adding video seemed to help really make my point (perhaps to myself more than anything, but then that's always true...). Thanks for the note.
Hey, cool, lyric sheets! Thank you
Say, how far is Austin from Luchenbach, Texas?
@eustressor Luchenbach's 60 or 70 miles west of here. Close to Fredericksburg (dull). I have a T-shirt from there, it's actually my lucky t-shirt. Always wear it to fly ('Luck and back' etc). Good brisket.
Luck and back, haha! Say, is that brisket I smell, or a potential collab?
"Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of song
Let's go to Luchenbach, Texas, Johnny, eustressor and the boys
This online life we're livin's got us feudin' over plug-ins, DAWs and toys ..."
Your country song, sir
@eustressor Why thank you Mister. I shall put it in the hopper. I am pleased to say I have written the lyrics for The Country Song and they do include cowboy in the first line. Quite proud. That was the first two weeks of the month.
I am seriously considering taking my ipad (well, Auria on my iPad) down to a local tavern during an empty afternoon session and getting a couple of good ole' boys to thrash out on strat and bass. Reckon I'll give them the chords two minutes before I hit record, smash a bottle on the bedpost, and then see what we end up with.
Course, I've got to write the chords first.
I think my track of the month will consist of buzzes and accidental audio recordings of swearing. Complete country.
My favorite taco at the local joint is called a Trashy Trailerpark, might be the title you're looking for....
I'll do the UK version - 'Rubbish Caravan Site'
@monzo Hmmm. Kinda. Trashy in this context is more Chav-y (white trash) rather than Garbage-y. Sorry for highly technical terminology
Yeah I know, but 'Scrote Station' sounded a bit harsh.
@monzo Oh, I dunno. The last dendrites of my punk self shivered happily at that title...
Scrote Station it is then. Talking of which, the neighbours son is annoying me with his 'gangster rap'. Maybe it's time to remind him I have a bass rig and large collection of Faust albums....
@monzo I suggest maximum infliction of discomfort, very early, often and hard Vicar. A precedent must be set, as opposed to being allowed.
I taught one unpleasant neighbour a lesson when I lived in a flat. It involved setting up a high frequency loop with my MS20, played at full volume through my old (400 watt) bass stack, pressed against their bedroom wall. Then I went off to a festival for the weekend. They were lovely after that.
This time 'Fall Heads Roll' by The Fall, played twice through a little ghetto blaster did the trick, but if they try it again I'll wheel out the MS20
You know @monzo old chap, there are governments who would pay us handsomely to provide solutions like these, but I fear we would not much like any of them....
