something in us all - another one from the bunkbeds archive

[Oldrottenhead]

you know when you look up at the stars at night and the sky is so big and you realize how insignificant you really are. well............ this song might be about that but then again................................answers on a postcard please.

well the above is what i said when i first posted this in 2007 , but song was actually done circa 1999 when i got my 1st pc, midi drums and keys where done on the pc, but pc soundcard was not full duplex (couldnt play and record at same time bugger), so i downloaded the midi stuff to my fostex four track and added guitars and vox  there,

reason for posting this now......... deigo ayala sent me a song to add lyrics to, it was a very spiritual tune, tommy satchwood has also added some guitar to it for a bridge of sorts, which i reversed and it now sounds like bill nelson but much better. anyway that song is called "love" and it may or may not surface in the next few days, anyway that song reminded me of this one.

its called something in us all, it is filled with mistakes, too much reverb and echo on the vox for example, basically because i had all these new effects to mess with. oh i should have said the vox and guitars recorded on my four track where then uploaded onto my pc and basically i went mental with every effect available in the software i was using. i think music station.

can you tell i have been drinking, not had a ramble on here for yonks. okay enough here it is

Great melody, super vocal as always - do people ever compare you to Robert Pollard?- and I liked the effects!

[Oldrottenhead]

indierik often compares me to robert pollard and my friend tom reckons im as prolific as him too. lol.

You got some great "archived" songs James !!  Flippin deep as an ocean!  I personally like the effects on your voice - echoy - a bit spacey - cooL - and I recognize some of the lyrics from a Kite tune - this is great !!!

I recognize some of the lyrics from a Kite tune - this is great !!!

this was done long before the kite so if there are similarities its purely coincidental, that said lots of my songs have recurring themes so its not surprising
