A fairly grim song, I suppose, mostly one chord, almost too long to upload here. With strings. And a guitar solo.
I've been uploading a song a week to my website, and this is this week's. I used to play it solo acoustic for a while, but it was a bit long for that. In retrospect I think people might have thought I was mad, largely because it had an intricate arrangement going on inside my head. Generally a live-music no-no, that.
I've always liked dramatic, over the top music, and I used it as a sort of test case to see exactly how far over the top I could go in Logic (the answer being so far over the top I was half-way down the other side).
I actually like it a lot, but then I would.
(If you visited the site - http://www.johnpeacock.com - before, please note that I've redesigned it since then. Or designed it, I'm not sure that there's any "re-" about it.)

Digging the intro for sure. Losing me on the opening lyrics -- but the recording quality is great. Ignore my comment about the lyrics, you're winning me back. Waiting for the chorus. Very linear -- I'm waiting for it to go somewhere. Great at 4:03 - switchup kicking in - and continuing. Dark -- but a great mood. Me passing out, have eaten pot brownie...

This is fantastic. I was drawn into your sonic landscape for sure. And the vocals fit perfectly. A total success.
