Have been there about but have,nt really been doing any music since September since my mother died, don't think that's the reason behind it, just did,nt have the notion.
So here we go with a little acoustic thing, nothing to write home about, three acoustic tracks, one bass, some vocal tracks and BR80 drums.

I,ve standing still like a dumb struck kid
         Watching you from afar
         Reciting those one line jokes
         Pretending that you'll hear them one day

         I've been dreaming all day long
         Got no work done today
         You've taken all of my time
         My heart racing since you've been on my mind

        Just a face in the crowd
        My hearts thumping, could I say it out loud
        Heres my chance coming my way
        A fleeting moment passed today

        I've been dreaming all day long
        Got no work done today
        You've taken all of my time
        My heart racing since you've been on my mind

       I've been standing like a dumb struck kid
       Watching you from afar
       Reciting those one line jokes
       Pretending that you'll hear them one day

       I've been dreaming all day long
       Got no work done today
       You've taken all my time
       My heart racing since you've been on my mind

       Turned around and walked away
       Same old story same old line
       One last look maybe get a sign
       Catch a glimpse , might tell you that joke today

Well anyway here goes, hope it's ok, hope to do more,

I've been dreaming of some new SE music!!!  super good guitar work...love the progression and the expression ...
lots of interesting guitar work.  Then there's the cool beat..
but the topper is always your vocals.
your work is very original.  You have a unique way to end songs too...

It's a sad thing to lose your mom.  I went through that a few years ago.  In my case mine was 89 so it was expected.  It still hurts though.  The little reminders here and there are bittersweet.
Thanks for posting.. it's very nice.

John this is more than ok, this is great. It had my foot tapping the whole way through. I love how you have done it acoustic, It's raw and honest, I love it. I am with Steve, it's a real cool beat too. Sorry to hear about your Mum. I know what you mean about not feeling like putting any music out there too, kinda in that place too, but I expect it will pass. Great to hear this... more please!

Quotenothing to write home about

But you're wrong about that! I listened to this a few times yesterday and from the get go i got a great energy and feel from this song. The recording might be a bit rushed sounding, but that doesn't take away from the performances & songwriting. The whole thing sounds natural and vibey and the sound fits the lyrics. Keep on grooving :)

A cool song John! It's as real as it gets and that's a compliment. I like how you stayed with the acoustic guitar for this song. You've put in some tasty acoustic riffs here and there. Good words and vocals...welcome back and I'm sorry to hear about your mom.
