Title: Def-Con 4
Post by: Zoltan on March 22, 2024, 08:21:48 AM
Here's a song inspired by "Do people in your life care..." topic :)

I changed the genre midway of the songwriting and it's still missing a lot.
It's a skeleton of a song.

DEF-CON 4

I was feeling kinda lonely
When i wrote this song
I was ugly from the outside
My dreams were out of touch

People draw the curtains
To stop that sound
I think i'm on the edge
Of a breakdown

CH:
You can hear me call
On the telephone
There's always a lady
Wanting to hear my song

She never complains
Even when i sing out of tune
It happens quite a lot
When i reach Def-con 4

It's not the world's smallest violin that is playing for our troubles. It's just some finnish nutter singing out of tune!

Gear used:
LEFT /  Fender Jaguar (P-90s, both pickups)
RIGHT / Fender Mustang (Yosemite PUs, neck)
Uad Dream 65 pedal
Yamaha BB-414 with tape wounds

I'm always on the edge of a breakdown four teenage kids will do that to you but I found this track quite therapeutic catchy too now I'm going to draw the curtains closed

love the AI and it does fit that subject.... but we ain't alone in this.  Even many former superstars are now irrelevant...

then there are us... the Stuporstars.... legend in my own mind...lol

this is really good.... I have heard it twice and have to listen more focused because I have about 40 things going on in my head all at the same time...plus Nick and Paul's song is still looping in my head.

the lyrics are spot on...

the bass is so fine.  wonderful really.

the guitar parts are really nice... sort of like a Tony C song (I will only comp any SC member maybe?)....

your voice sounds great. 

so what you are telling me is my taste in music sucks... I think almost everyone in my life would agree with you... not based on this but what I listen to mostly...lol
I tell you what though.... my two sons actually do love alot of bands that i do, and when I get in their vehicles it shows up on their playlists... of course they go way into other things as well...

so I don't think this sucks at all... but even if it does, remember vacuum cleaners suck, and they are damn good at it too... and when they don't, that sucks!

Can I have that number?

This is a really good recording, with a 1960s feel. Even the tapewounds sound good.

Cool song and nicely produced. I like those bass guitar lines. I guess we all reach def-con4 occasionally.
