It's hard to live up to a title like that, but here goes...  :D

An original song song of mine, with Flash Harry ripping the skin off his fingers on the bass, and me doing the rest. There's some circus fanfare trickery at the start, but then it's pretty much business as usual... i.e. semi-psychedelic telecaster jingle-jangle  ;)

Nice Beatles influence in there with the harmonies, very moving.

Are the drums played live?  If so miked from the BR or external?  Or if from the BR, nice editing.  Can't tell from the real thing.  8)

Those things we take for granted - when we're young and immature - will surely return to haunt us when we're old and insecure

Thanks for the kind comments - yep... can't mistake my Beatles influences here! The ideal for me would be Beach Boys harmonies on Beatles songs  :D

The drums are 'STD1' rhythm patterns all inside the BR. I think I might have added a bit of Reverb on them to give them a slightly spacier / trippier feel though. It takes a while to get to grips with the pattern editing, but once you've nailed it, the possibilities are amazing.

If you want I could record you some drums for that, I got a pretty nice set up for recording my kit. Loving the song btw.

I'm not trying to bump old songs (from well before I joined the site) but this was a good one, so smooth.

This is a great bump! Greeny has such a vast catalogue of great songs that if i'd get into it the bumping would never stop :D
