I enjoyed the hook a lot. Catchy and getting some new wave vibes. The 80's synth is a very good touch. The lead playing has not been complimented yet I see

Very powerful and encouraging! Wonderful song💕💕

Very interesting song indeed.   Nice guitar solo.

really like the production on this, very shiny and sparkly, very tasteful guitar solo too.

It's so interesting because this is completely different music but every once in a while your voice reminds me of Johnny Cash. Nice job!

excellent melodies, and a cool idea on how you're using your spotlight this month.

LEAD GUITAR SOLO: Fog City Fogey

Helpless and far from home
Helpless and on your own
You can’t settle down, no, no
You won’t settle down, no, no
 
You learn to play the game
But it’s never quite the same
You don’t fit your part
You won’t fit your part
You can’t just keep stalling
When they start to calling
 
There’s safety in numbers  You know
There’s safety in numbers  Oh no
Your face is wrong
You don’t belong
Numbers bring strength
You’ll never be strong
 
Some days you almost win
Only to lose again
You may well be right
But do you have the fight?
Though you might make a friend
You’ll see the friendship end
It’s down to yourself
You need no one else
No matter what they say
You’re still going your way
 
Numbers bring safety
Which one are you?
Shout it out bravely,  ooh
One of the few, ooh
One of the few

 No matter what they say
You’re still going your way

Safety In Numbers

Peaceful Depths

You are told, “She wears tiny step-ladder earrings,” which tempts you to enter the mind of someone you think you know. You enter. But suddenly, the vault door slams shut behind you with a pounding low C chord on the piano. You are now trapped inside! This song is oddly infectious, with a synth-wave pop hook and a mysterious entity whistling a cheerful yet foreboding tune in the distance. A mocking hollow-body guitar and a '90s Manchester bass groove add complexity. Also inspired by post-punk pioneers Wire and their 1987 release "Ahead"! Good luck escaping!

NOTICE: I DO NOT PAY FOR PROMOTION. EVER.

SPOTLIGHT:  It's June and time to bring out the 2024 edition of my PRIDE playlist. Meanwhile, "Old Age' joins the previous songs in Sexagenarian Volume V, which is now half complete with 6 of the planned 12 tracks. Meanwhile Sexagenarian Volume I reached its belated completion with the addition of the 12th track, "The Last Laugh." Look for Sexagenarian Volumes II, III and IV in my Playlist section.

BIO: I started writing songs in high school (1969-1973!) and I've pretty much never stopped. These are mostly solo recording projects (my brother, Fog City Fogey, contributes sometimes).  I don't do much self-promotion, not a fan of Repost Exchange etc, so all of you who find this page and like a song or two - you are truly appreciated!
