Title: I Don't Know What's Going On by Oldrottenhead
Post by: Oldrottenhead on November 25, 2023, 08:48:30 AM
I don't get much time on my own for music these days, but got a couple of hours with the house to myself and this is the 2nd song from today, most likely the last, but i'm leaving the gear set up in case i get anymore inspiration.

It is what it is.
It's something or nothing
Don't know if it's hot or cold
A reason for action
A reason to stay indoors
I don't know what's going on
Do you................
I can't see what's happening
Can you

Electricity
Is in the air
Hairs on end
Senses wired
I don't know what's going on
Do you................
I can't see what's happening
Can you

Curiosity
Is getting the better of me
The suspense
Is killing me
I don't know what's going on
Do you................
I can't see what's happening
Can you
I Don't Know What's Going On

Well done James.

A really smooth, fine song. And what I'm noticing is that your production skills has had a major lift.

A great listen.

I'm a fan

Very nice song James. Only observation on production is that lately your songs seem too low in volume? To get it the same as other peoples at 50 I have to crank yours up to 100. :-\

I don't know either but I like the song, nice solo, smooth bass, the whole thing has a nice laid back vibe

Man, you're getting an excellent workout with the guitar and bass on this 'un.

Great mix and production.

Great song and that telecaster riffage is really classy and Groovin'.  Tell the people in your house I said you should leave your gear set up all the time, because I think it takes you less time to crank out a song, and then it does to set up your gear, so I wouldn't want anything to interfere with that!

I also notice very fine production skills here. Everything has loads of space. Great mix and very enjoyable late night listen. Oh... some lovely chilled soloing too!
