but strange familiar by oldrottenhead

[Oldrottenhead]

your guess is good as mine
2nd one today and like the first i was attempting to cover a bowie song couldnt do it and took a wrong turning.

looking for some lead guitar between the verses

a tale spin spun
a whale song sung
you old son of a gun
with no regrets

a cantor trots
we squeeze our spots
i've got the hots
hugh hefner's wet


so close the gate
and clean the slate
i've burnt my pate
beneath the sun

we've milked the sky
spry crisp'n'dry
cholestral's high
i gotta run

his father's son
happy that he's gone
i wonder for how long
good morning mam

and i don't understand
it looks the same
but strange familiar
and different
sitting at an odd angle
on the wrong side of the road
they won't take my currency
and i don't know the rules
their social more's
a magical mystery

but strange familiar

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[j.g.]

The original version is great but Geir's extra guitar lifts it to a higher level of excellence.
The magical lyrics fit perfectly with the quieter vox and creates a wonderful atmosphere.

Sweet Beauty of perfection....
Wow, Geir you put the perfect touch to this....
Jim, this is better than Bowie, IMHO anyhow!
Who wants to hear a Bowie cover when we can hear a ORH original anyway?
AWESOME COLLAB GUYS!
