In extension hell, but managed to do this before the real chaos starts! Been dying to try the Tele Resonator out, and finally I have finished a song
Enjoy  :)

Save Your Breath
Andy Casson
1st November 2014
One mans smile is anothers pain
One mans reason is anothers blame

Save your breath I know these things (we live in a )
Broken Peace

One mans loss is anothers gain
One mans pride is anothers shame

Save your breath I know these things (we live in a )
Broken Peace
Save your coin like a miser king (we live in a)
Broken peace

One mans nightmare is anothers dream
One mans silence is anothers scream

Save your breath I know these things (we live in a )
Broken Peace
Save your coin like a miser king (we live in a)
Broken peace

Hiya Andy, you've been very quiet for quite some time. Good to have you back.
Love the vocal harmonies on this - almost has a chain-gang feel about it. Nice sparse arrangement. Great tune.

Really good song Andy...loved it. Dark, brooding...i think Bruno nailed the vibe with his chain gang comment, especially with those hummed interlude sections.

The lyrics in here were wonderful...ace writing mate! I liked the instrumentation ..the sparceness which gives the listener time to absorb and digest the lyrics. Also liked the mean ass distorted guitar in the outro and the vocal change up.

Great work!

Excellent Andy, the sparseness of the musical arrangement, the repeating mantra quality and the vocal backing/harmonies reminded me a bit of Elbow.

Even with the relative sparse arrangements you still manage to make a monster of a song, huge sounding yet delicate at the same time. There is nobody better at making a song build, build and then build some more than you.

Be interested to hear how you recorded them harmonies, they sound so full and lush and love how you get them overlapping during the middle part of the song, sounds bleeding epic!

Your old habit of making them tunes stick in your head still very much remains, time and time you deliver them killer vocal melodies, its a talent I am sure most of us here envy.

Killer!
