Gravity

A short song about falling over.

As opposed to the song I uploaded last month, this is the sort of thing I do nowadays. If I do tend towards a genre, it would be "lugubrious bossa nova". For a long time this song was called 9.8 metres per second squared, but I finally realised that that's a terrible name for a song in general and this song in particular. And then I recorded it.

It was a lot of fun doing the harmony bit.

(I suspect it's not really bossa nova, but the tag remains regardless)

Wow, this is great. The only thing missing is a little Brazilian beauty dancing next to you, but hey, maybe there was!

The harmony is wonderful. You could bring it up in the mix. For something that cool, it shouldn't be so shy!

Damn. First I have to tell you that I loved this song. I'll take all the lugubrious bossa nova that you can upload. This is a really good song and your voice sounds great in it. Did you play the double bass in it?

Second. When this song finished I clicked on your username to see if you had uploaded any other songs (I couldn't remember). Now I can't believe you are the "Crazy Baby, Lazy Charlie" guy. I loved that song. Now I'm a complete fan. Do upload more.
