Fakebook
w/m: J. Sundbo

As a Facebook user (not a very active one) I notice how self-centered (apparently) some people are and strive to present a perfect life. Sometimes it's actually nice to see what my friends accomplish in the kitchen, but again, it can be too much also. I guess you get the irony in my song and hope no one gets offended by it  :). It's meant as harmless humor  ;).

Tracks: Martin acoustic guitar (2), Ibanez el.guitar (2), Hofner bass, Vintage B3 organ (midi), Triangle, Drums (Logic Pro drummer) and vocals (4).

Lol yeh you've got a point there,although it really is how you use it,I've had a lot of really good outcomes ....finding people from years ago and links that have opened my eyes to things.
There is the  other side that you talk about,but it's like life really .
It's what you do and make of it.
Anyway,,,,,,on to the song lol ,it's well recorded and crystal clear,I like the story as well.
It just seems to click into place.   
    Well done

I like this a lot - there's a funky feel to the music at times, lots of interesting musical bits throughout, and it's an honest and funny lyrical assessment of Facebook.

Regarding the subject matter - at first I found it (FB) annoying (and initially even turned off a few friends posts from appearing on my wall) but later came to the realization that it's okay to accept that some of my friends are just narcissists. :)

In a word... BRILLIANT!

This is a great, really creative song. I love it.

Just from a personal point of view... i know almost everyone's uses Facebook now, but i find something slightly sinister about it and i can't quite get my head around exactly what it is that i don't like. Anyhow... the song is great and a good light-hearted  fun feel... hard to achieve.
