Great song Joe! Here is your choice shopping at Walmart or chopping your pinky off with a cleaver? I'd say where's the cleaver!😂 Great song and vocals!👍😎✌🏼

Thanks. I keep going there because   I really do save money but it sure is unpleasant. And I find it sad that the greeters no longer greet you. They’ve been repurposed to check your receipts because the assumption is that we are all shoplifting. 😂

Serious and hilarious, with great music and vocals. What is even more hilarious is my daughter just started there to be...at the checkout line.

Oh no flashback’s to my first job lol it’s a nightmare on both sides 🤣 my Walmart doesn’t even want you to go to the humans anymore lol 
Great song!!

Love your knack for writing with desciption and humour such catchy well recorded tunes!

I am very grateful for this song with Oddrun and Arne. 
It is truly amazing to see how things falls into place and ends up like this fine result of our pleasant collaboration.
Poem: Emily Jane Brontë

Mild the mist upon the hill
Telling not of storms tomorrow;
No, the day has wept its fill,
Spent its store of silent sorrow.

O, I'm gone back to the days of youth,
I am a child once more,
And 'neath my father's sheltering roof
And near the old hall door

I watch this cloudy evening fall
After a day of rain;
Blue mists, sweet mists of summer pall
The horizon's mountain chain.

The damp stands on the long green grass
As thick as morning's tears,
And dreamy scents of fragrance pass
That breathe of other years.

Upon The Hill.  Oddrun Eikli. Arne Hiorth. Torbjørn Vagle

Creative Spirit Online: "Colorful and engaging from beginning to end, this is the latest of Robert John Brooks’ virtuosic offerings. The three movements (Rondo, Variations and Finale) are scored for large orchestra—a twenty-minute journey through sometimes tender, often energetically playful, occasionally threatening, and ever-changing musical textures. Brooks’ musical gift lies in his ability to create highly structured, clearly defined musical gestures within the context of a challenging and thoughtful harmonic and rhythmic language."

“Contrapunctus III” was completed in February 2024 in Fairview, TX. The work is in three movements: Rondo, Variations, and Finale'. Performance time is about 20 minutes. Printed and electronic copies of the score are available now and instrumental parts will soon be available soon from www.CreativeSpiritOnline.com.

In the checkout line, in the checkout line, in the checkout line at Walmart

You picked the wrong line at Walmart and now it’s moving at a snail’s pace
The cashier’s taking his good old time He’s got a bored look on his face.
You went there for the low prices cause you don’t like to over spend
and now you’re trapped in a line that feels - like it’s never goanna end.

There’s days when you're going through life like a hot knife through butter
One second You’re on the top of the world and the next you’re lying in the gutter.

In the checkout line, in the checkout line, in the checkout line at Walmart.

You just want to scream, you just want to shout, you just want to let your true feelings out.
You make a silent plea, as you stand there quietly, please hurry up, you’ve had enough.

The cashier scans an item but there is no price.  He pushes a button to get some advice. 
It takes the manager five minutes to come. He walking real slow but  you wish he’d run

Every time you get in line, you’re rolling the dice you just don’t know
Whether or not you’re goanna speed on through
 or if it’s goanna move real slow

The self-checkout line is an option, but if you’re buying a lot of stuff
The space is limited, and the ergonomics are bad and bagging it yourself can be tough.

There’s days when you are going through life like a hot knife through butter
One second you’re on the top of the world and the next you’re lying in the gutter

You try to be nice, you don’t want to be a jerk
You realize they’re just trying to do their work
Cause life can be tough, minimum wage is rough
But sometimes you feel like you’ve had enough

In the checkout line, in the checkout line, in the checkout line at Walmart
In the checkout line, in the checkout line, in the checkout line at Walmart

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious) recorded using Logic Pro 11. I’ve been cranking them out and using SoundCloud as a place to see what resonates and occasionally tweaking them as my skills improve. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
