Demo of a song about being far away from the spy you love. With acoustic guitar and tuba.

I like it. Kind of a Zombies feel to it.

(The band. Not the ravenous undead.)

So... you're working on a concept album? I listened to both spy tracks. Impressive songwriting, and it's excellently recorded. It's funny that these are demos... you should hear my demos. Or, actually, you shouldn't.

The tuba sounds good, by the way! Nice majestic touch.

Thanks for listening. Not a concept album really, just two related songs. There are a couple of others that have sort of similar themes, though. I've got 2 more partially completed recordings to finish, then 2 or so more to be recorded, and the whole album will be demoed.

Thirty Scarves is my favourite Steve Goldberg and the Arch Enemies song.

Gorgeous. It reminded me of Trembling Blue Stars, and that's high praise in my book.

This sounds great. (I need to find a tuba player.)

Gah, this song needs to come with a warning: "don't listen while stuck many miles away from your honey".
