https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=31412.0 I must admit i fell of the wagon and had 3 glass's of wine and decided to come down the cellar for a jam so i played a few tracks of backing tracks playing along with the gibson then decided to take a look at the board and saw this little gem to have a go at and i couldn't resist so hopefully Ian you like it.....Thanks for putting it up

You say that you own your life
But the truth is your just living A lie
Your life is not exactly what you want
But this is all that you got
Your Flying high in the middle of may
But your sinking low by the end of July
Falling into the riff
When your just living  trying to get by
I'm saying hi as a  friends
I'm sorry this is how it ends
Try as you might to trying to fly
We all end up having to die
Some day soon
That loved one you've got to say goodbye


Theres an energy out there called life
Sometimes it called the love of your life
You hold on to it dear
But slowly it disappears
This monument to life falls
I'm afraid ,were all going to die
So grab it now with your hands
Try to live every moment till the end
The Time is ticking by
Time is ticking by
So fast
it won't last
So fast
it won't last

more brilliance...and this is a great backing track by IanJm..... punky, new wave, Billy Idol rockin goodness with lots of great riffing...

the lyrics are so true... 3 glasses of wine can bring about a brusk with reality for me too...usually 3 9.0abv beers.... I get a bit melancholic...

I personally believe there is hope after the resurrection but I know not everyone does... but it's hard for me to always really believe it...because this world is all I see...

I don't know how you come up with such consistent brilliance... you deserve to be on a much bigger stage!!!!  thanks for sharing all your great stuff...

This is a steriophonics track ,right?
Its like a mash up of steriophonics and these boots were made for walking at the start then it goes full on reg after that.
3 glasses of wine would probably kill me these days.
Cant get near the studio these days,too hot.
But I understand your need to blast it out.
Cool stuff.

here is an alt mix... that I messed around with .... I added nothing other than what was on the colab tracks....on the DAW added the orig track by Ian from the colab board to give a fuller music muscle...then used 2 of the tracks from this post that Trevor made....one that I added a bit of delay, chorus, flanging, and panned to various spots in the sound field.... and of course played with the 3 tracks volumes to get this...it sounds quite big and really smokes for me...

What a cool idea... giving a track a new vocal melody and lyric. Really works and those 3 glasses of wine were put to very good use!!
