And I see this is your first posted song. I hope you have more of these gems to share, that'd be great.

I dig it and, in fact, wanted more. So, please, more. Thanks in advance.

Hey man, real women go for tritones.

But this is very nice!

The ole' diabolus, eh? Maybe in a melodic way? How's 'bout a two part blues invention featuring the big stinky? I think perhaps I maybe could whip something up. Mabye.

Lemme see here...

I got the two part blues
And I got a tritone on the side...
Said I got the two part blues
And I got a tritone on the side...
But then I played a major seventh,
My baby laid right down and died

I found the sacred chord that Leonard Cohen was always going on about. Turns out it's just Dm7. Who'da thunk?

Also: this kicks my ass.

You mean in "Hallelujah, Jofus? That was a secret chord!

Might've been sacred too, though!

Sacred, secret. Same thing, just fingered differently. :)

This is what hubris sounds like? Well, then, I gotta fever, and the only prescription is... more hubris!

Dammit. Looked fine in preview. Long version: "I say, you are a talented sort! I should be delighted to hear more of your oeuvre!"
