No Good News Today

Fresh this evening. No good news today, for tomorrow's issue of The Aural Times. Because the news sucks lately.

Sometimes it's hard to see something worth singing about.

I like the melody, and the vocal delivery is interesting. The style makes me think of an old man tired from decades of news he personally had to typeset.

I was a little more moved by this than I had expected. Really nice.

Cortex, I started "Uma Thurman Refuses to Criticize Ex-Husband" to submit to the Aural Times on Monday evening, but didn't get a chance to finish it. I thought it was a headline worthy of song.

Nice job on this one. The strings and harmony are nice.

Better late than never, nonmyopicdave. If you get around to finishing it, fire it my way.

Very nice. A bit like Elliot Smith. I really enjoy your stuff.

Flattery will get you everywhere.
