Well Did You by Oldrottenhead

[Oldrottenhead]

This is the first outing for my new Harley Benton Bass guitar, mixed on headphones so hopefully it's not a muddy mess. Inspired by our privileged and inconsiderate moptop leaders.

Anyway

It is what it is.

Well did you ever wonder
Did you ever even care
Bout what goes on around you
Bout what goes on out there
Well did you
Well did you
Well did you ever
Did you ever really care

Well have you ever suffered
Have you ever had to try
Was it all laid right out for you
All pressed and ironed
Well have you
Well have you
Well have you ever
Have you ever had to try

Did you ever get your grubby little fingers dirty
Doing a hard days work
Or did it always came easy
Easy on the back of others
Well did you
Well did you
Well did you ever
Did you ever really care

Well Did You

Nice one James! Fascinating dreamy feeling and great words. These times really makes you puzzled some times.

[Greeny]

Excellent. I love the simmering anger - that lyric 'Was it all laid right out for you / All pressed and ironed' is magnificent. Someone really pissed you off. It's dreamy but there's an insistent little drive to it too. Lovely.

Great one James, packed with feelings! Nice contrast between smooth and intense vibes. 

We've got a whole party of those kinds over here too.  And no, they don't care......

Of course they don't.... great track Jim

[Redler]

Great job both on lyrics and ethereal backer!

[Ferryman_1957]

Not a muddy mess for a headphone mix, not bad at all! It all seems good to me, well done that man.

Very dreamy and hypnotic, reminds me of Tago Mago era Can. The bass sounds nice, it pulses away in a very good way. Gotta love Harley Benton!

[Flash Harry]

Not a muddy mess - but you could have put a little more of the new bass in there.

I like the feel, it's brooding and malevolent and angry.


Suits my mood as they dismantle the civil service.
