Title: If You Never Take A Chance By Oldrottenhead
Post by: Oldrottenhead on December 19, 2023, 12:06:34 PM
got my rode NT1A dried out and working again.

It is what it is.
Trouble seems to Follow me
But I don't mind
Cos I just won the lottery
When I found you
I'm an accident waiting to happen
but that's just me
And when I fall
You're there to pick me up again
You will never know the good
Till you have known the bad
And you'll just get bored
If you never take a chance
You can take the easy road
Or go against the grain
If you don't try something different
We would all be the same
Throw your coin in the air
See where it lands
This might be destiny
It might be chance
If You Never Take A Chance

The harmonies caught me. Unexpected the way they are used but works really well. I was a bit turned off by the abrupt ending, but that last line keeps echoing in my head. Really drives hone the point.

Cool post.

Ok. Maybe that Rode NT1A is worth keeping too. Just keep it comfy and warm. Away from the spittle and harm.

The way the song begun reminded me of U2, but the vibe soon changed into something more ethereal and fragile. There's this gentleness to your songs as a whole. Like you were the worlds last romantic poet.

Great one.

It's been raining that much over there that it soaked your mic?

Your vocal sounds fantastic...you have got it sorted out it seems.....the good Norwegian lady and your Rode NT1A put in the oven is a winning combination.....did you throw your rain soaked socks in there with it? it definitely is what it is

Cool stuff ORH, enjoying the delayed guitars and vocal, much more organic.

Clever use of delay on the guitar.  Nice tune.
