'Broken Too' - A Greeny Monday Original

[Greeny]

Tanglewood acoustic, Hofner Verythin, Fender Precision, and a random drum loop from somewhere. Plus my Danelectro doing the trem-wobbly solo. All recorded and mixed on the MBR.

rise above the poisoned ground
the toxic words that get you down
and watch their machinations fall

leave them to their bitter lives
and the way they justify their lies
kick them into touch and have a ball

'cause it looks like looks like
you're broken in two
but it's alright alright 'cause i'm broken too

all our skills won't pay the bills
but at least we know how passion feels
darling let me light your fire

leave them to their bitter lives
and the way they justify their lies
kick them into touch and take me higher

'cause it looks like looks like
you're broken in two
but it's alright alright 'cause i'm broken too

let the new day sweep the shadows away
the footprints of the ogre washed away by the rain

'cause it looks like looks like
you're broken in two
but it's alright alright 'cause i'm broken too

All mixed on the mbr wow. Goes to show what can be done if you know what all the buttons do
Great hook in the chorus most impressive. I like the blend of sounds from the different guitars giving the song added dynamics.

Loved it!

Got a Seventies power-pop vibe from this…and that chorus is a real belter. And the lead guitar  grabs and holds on. Going to spin it for another listen. Fine, fine stuff, Tim.

[Tangled Wires]

Another absolute gem, gets your attention from the outset and holds it until the end with an array of wonderful hooks.

I was particularly struck on the second refrain in the choruses where the additional vocal comes in and sings a very slightly different melody from the main vocal...really clever stuff!

The drums sound really big and authentic, it's almost as if they were created especially for this song!

Your songwriting continues to go from strength to strength....scary!!

I appreciate your work on the lyrics. And along with the music something very comforting gets across which goes to the message of not being completely alone when you feel down and broken. 

[Blooby]

I'm in awe of how prolific you are with quality songs.

I'm off to sulk for a minute now.

Really great, catchy, pop goodness. I really like that harmony vocal in the chorus!
Rock On!

[Redler]

Awesome! I'm singing the chorus all the day - it's so catchy! Perfect pop!
