Barfly (KennyMac, ORH, Geir, Jarle & Mach)

[Mach]

Kenny and I have been discussing this one for several weeks.
I had the music laid out as a multi-genre instrumental.
I had sent it to Kenny and he came up with lyrics for it
about a guy who hangs out in a bar most of his days.

When all the guys had the UK MET, Kenny had them to sing on it.
I think all of you did a fantastic job and sound great together.

Thanks guys you're the best!

BARFLY
________________________________
Cold rain beats on the surface
Of your small frame
You head on through the door.
Floor stains, they meet your shoes
You hear a pool game
You'd love to play them but you

You've got no confidence
No real experience

You smile and wave them on
And head on to the bar
You hear the balls click
You Pull your stool out
And you
Take off your raincoat
And sit down again


Bar fly, that's what call you
Your a cool  guy
You've got no confidence
No real experience

You lie
Into their company yeh
You've got no confidence
No real experience

A bar room connection
You'll never tell them that you
You've got no confidence
No real experience
One day they,ll find out
You'll have to move fast
And you'll
Put on your raincoat
And get out of here.

Bar fly
You are a legend to them
Bar fly
You are a hero Mister
Bar fly
They call you out and they chant
Bar fly
You smile and wave to them
Bar fly
You create false illusions
Bar fly
You fly inside their heads
Bar fly
Your running out of time

Better
Get on your raincoat
And get out of here.

I don't know where to begin with this, an amazing depiction of people that actually exist. You nailed it man, and your support group is fabulous! Reminds me a little of Harry Nilsson (And Mickey Rourke & Frank Stallone lol)

There's one per seedy bar, multiplied by thousands across the land and you have a movement...

Awesome tune!

Stunning colaboration, peeps!  Brilliant.

[Johnny Robbo]

Magnificent stuff, chaps! I can picture you all now with foaming pints having a good time making music. Brilliant loose & sleazy feel. Reminds me of early stuff by The Band... just fantastic!

[cuthbert]

Excellent - I second the Harry Nilsson feel in the vocals and arrangement (and the subject matter - he was a wild man in his day). Speaking of the subject matter, it's got plenty of the Bukowski flavor as well - well done, guys!

[Art Vandalay]

This is fantastic!!! Production, playing, recording...all!

Remind me of Supertramp, I don`t know why, maybe the voices arrangement.

Congrats!
