'Lighthouse Keeper' - A Greeny Monday Original

[Greeny]

Acoustic guitar, Fender Precision bass, & vocals, plus Garageband drums & piano, and Thumbjam mellotron strings & flute.

All recorded and mixed on the MBR.

[Farrell Jackson]

Well done Tim! The mellotron sounds great and the lyric is creative with the comparison of the lonely life of a lighthouse keeper to someone struggling to hang on to his love. The song's dynamics, as instruments come and go, are exceptional as well.

[Oldrottenhead]

wonderful tim, intro had shades of hotel california , beautiful and melancholic at the same time. i am currently in a deep depression as a result of the Brexit and this song fits my mood perfectly we need a lighthouse now.

Smashing Tim, the garage band drums are so much better than the MBR and bring a natural feel to the percussion, the guitar is so sweet in my left ear, lovely levels, the recording is so good. The bass is fab, and the arrangement is fantastic.

I love the lyric, your usual elliptical lob of images mashing up two at a time, it's magical.

Love, love, love it.

And James is right, it has that beautiful melancholia that suits these angst-ridden times.

An anthem and an allegory for our times

[Johnny Robbo]

I'm a sucker for a bit of mellotron... it adds beautifully to this song. I agree with James on the Eagles comparison. Not only have you written yet another belter, but your orchestration is perfect... no other word for it!
