'Deadbeat Moon' - Greeny Original

[Greeny]

12-string electric + delay & overdrive through an Orange tiny terror combo, Ibanez bass, Garageband drums, strings & keys. All recorded and mixed on the MBR.

d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-deadbeat moon

nomads spaced out in the desert
(under the stars)
blunt apparitions in the town
(communications down)
hearts left on ice in the freezer
and cacti sucking water from the ground
romantic novels in the lost and found

you and me and a deadbeat moon
skid row la luna like a milky balloon
you and me and a deadbeat moon
fallen in love in a drunken monsoon

d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-deadbeat moon

we've buried our hope in time capsules
(deep in the ground)
we've made pinatas out of our dreams
(hanging from the trees)
waiting for the heavens to open
in angel-helmet Wagner fantasies
operas to cure our disease

you and me and a deadbeat moon
skid row la luna like a milky balloon
you and me and a deadbeat moon
fallen in love in a drunken monsoon

12 string sounds gorgeous and the d-d-d-d-deadbeat moon is so infectious. Lyrical bass work that really plays off the drum pattern brilliantly. Great vocals, fab visual imagery in the lyrics and that polished production. Another one to pop in that Greeny top drawer. Loved it.

Beautiful Tim. Some lovey bass work and the string parts work really well. The quirky d-d-d-d chorus idea is very original and works brilliantly. You keep the bar very high with consistently great tracks and this is another. Lovely stuff.

Fantastic song - great bass line and I love it when the strings come in. I'm always amazed at how you come up with one top quality song after another !

[maxit]

wow ! That's a fantastic lyric, you've a way to tell the story with those wonderful images happening, so cool ! I think it's also very new, this weird times love story, and the way you sing the d-d-d-d and the ( ) thing is really something. One of my favorites too ...

Getting ready to work the fall fields but thought I would listen to this first and have one more cup of coffee what a great way to start my morning loving the 12 string

You surely can write some infectious tunes. Great progressions, especuially that move to the chorus with the string stabs. Wowza.

You've really put some time into this. It sounds brilliant. As do all your songs. I really love the dddddd chorus bit. The music sounds fantastic, love the strings too and all the musical bits going on in the background. Guitars sound great.
