Song that grew out of a single note.  I picked up my guitar, played a note which seemed odd. It was three frets up from the capo which was on the third fret, so Dflat. And from that developed the opening riff and the rest of the structure followed.

It's built around four Jazzmaster tracks, two relatively clean, two grungy as hell. And then a ton of GarageBand drums bass and stuff.

I like a cacophony, me.

Man! I love the sound of this, a perfect blend of spacey Britpop and a bit of Americana. Wicked chords, that intro part immediately grabs you. I love your freewheelin' lead here as well and the vocal/lyric is perfect for this. Sorta like Radiohead meets Blur! Awesome song

That quote reminded me of Zen Guitar by Philip Toshio Sudo

Quote from: hilip Toshio SudoHere is where you start: Play one note on one string and pour in every ounce of your heart and soul. Then repeat.

There's kind of grunge-glam thing going here – which isn't a species that is spotted often in the wild.
The guitar solo is fantastic! I love this song.

Brilliant song that came out of a single picked note, great inspiration from you. Yeah I'm getting a Radiohead kind of vibe. I love those guitars, awesome lead and the beat is just right. Love the vocals aswell. Awesome production.
