Title: i fell asleep
Post by: Oldrottenhead on February 22, 2012, 09:04:08 AM
after coming off a night shift i fell asleep in the bath and dreamt the first two lines and melody to this song.

i fell asleep in the bath
and dreamt the water turned cold
and it had and it had

i dozed off on my chair
and dreamt that you had left
and you had and you had

if all my dreams come true
what if i dream of you
will you come will you come

i fell asleep on the bus
and dreamt i missed my stop
and i had and i had

i nodded off at school
and dreamt you thought me a fool
and you had and you had

if all my dreams come true
what if i dream of you
will you come will you come

i fell asleep on the bed
and dreamt that you'd come back
i fell asleep

I dig it brother! The music really gives the feeling of being right on the edge of sleep and flows well with the lyric. Nice one.
Rock on!

Great little groove and cool arrangement. I like what you've done with snare drum, coming in and out.

Creative to the max...no doubt there. Mixed feelings about the arrangement..i'm thinking it's supposed to be representitive of the Alpha state, where you are half in and half out of consciousness...but the music is so intense that it , for me, overides the importance of the lyrics...which i absolutely loved. Brilliant as you folks over there often say. I liked the dynamics, but especially when the vox took center stage. Wild song James. You sure think out of the box!
