Most of this song was recorded in Garageband on my macbook. However i still dont have a usb mic for vocals. so i transferred the music to my trusty old MicroBR and did the vocals there.

It is what it is.
It doesn't have to rhyme
It doesn't even have to make any sense
You can make of it what you will
It is what it is
You can look for hidden meanings
From words not even said
You can make of it what you will
It is what it is
So I'll just sing my song
Join in if you want you can
We all can sing along
It is what it is
It is what it is
You know I wrote these words for you
And tried to fit them to my tune
You can make of it what you will
It is what it is
When I strum on my guitar
The ideas come and show their face
You can make of it what you will
It is what it is
So I'll just sing my song
Join in if you want you can
We all can sing along
It is what it is
So I'll just sing my song
Join in if you want you can
We all can sing along
It is what it is
It is what it is
It Is What It Is

Nice and dreamy ORH. I like how you took the line "It Is What It Is" and wrote the complete lyric around them. It all came together very well.

I've got a condenser mic with a usb I don't use it, only a cheap Chinese one ( Newer) I think but your welcome to it if you want it.

Yes, dreamy as said! I really like the atmosphere of this.

On someday I'll study how to make drumtrack with GB - this sounds so good!

Nice job!

Hello James
thanks for sharing on my band "MUSIC" on FB

excellent song and sound
I saw in the description that you have an HB tecaster copy
I've had one for a while now. I love this line that really sounds Twang like an original telecaster.
