Title: If This Is Drowning By Oldrottenhead
Post by: Oldrottenhead on March 27, 2025, 08:54:28 AM
Messing about with the fender telecaster and this came.

it is what it is.
Drifting slowly
Where the light won't reach
Whispers swirl in the undertow
I'm weightless now
In a world so deep
Your voice I can barely hear
If this is drowning leave me be
If this ain't love then set me free
Every breath
Is a stolen kiss
Every wave says don't let go
The tide pulls soft
like your fingertips
tracing lines in the dark unknown
If this is drowning leave me be
If this ain't love then set me free
Dancing ghosts in the silent blue
The folding shapes of a liquid moon
What if love is just a breath too few
Then let me drown let me stay with you

Nice relaxing song, just what I need at the moment. I take it the Spark was involved ? It seems to be inspiring you into making some great music

not this time, tho I am noodling on my spark 2 most days, this probably came from stuff I've been playing/experimenting whist noodling on it.

typically great ORH track... this one though the vocals hit a little bit higher on the very high scale.
lovely

Nice one mate.
Like that kick drum on this.

Nice ambiance in that structure.

I'm really getting into the delicate, pastoral-pop vibe and gentle contemplative aura. Perfect for a lazy weekend afternoon.
