Mandolin Mockery

So I got bored on my day off, and decided to record abit of this beautiful piece of music. Apologies if you think I've ruined it. I probably have.

John Mayer - Age Of Worry (cover)

Monday Night Mafia

when I take over another cloud in the sky,
when the skies fade over, when the day turns into night.
I'll be waiting for another chance at life,
to start over, living on a nine till five.

and I, I'll try not to withdraw my heart
but when you say you cry, I die a little on the inside.

Little girl, please hold my hand,
it's time that we both take this stand.
If only you'd believe this works,
if there's no more you, then there's no more us,
if there's a reason for this, then why do we make this worse?

Take This Stand (rough recording)

Been working on this for a while now, but I guess we'll just let you hear how it sounds so far.

Idea 1

Finished writing this, so thought I might aswell.

all guitar tracks recorded using a Martin DCPA4 Semi-Acoustic.
Drums programmed and edited using Logic Pro X.
Vocals recorded using Behringer B2Pro.

Down & Out

Just a snippet of my new song "It Don't Come Easy"...

Who do you think you are?
You walk around here like you wanna be someone.
Well let me tell you somethin' son,
it don’t come easy.
You talk the way you talk,
and assume that we’re gonna just stand here and watch
Let me tell you something son,
it don’t come easy.  

Take a couple of seconds just to think this through.
Don’t turn your back, you know I’m talking to you.
I’m standing right here and I’m ready for this,
My blood may be boiling and I’m clenching my fist.
 
That’s it, son, you know you better run,
I’m not playing games and it isnt for fun.
I’m destined to hurt you, yeah, I’m destined for blood.
You’re gonna end up face down in the mud.

This isn’t what we wanted.
This isn’t what we wanted.

Recorded on:

Martin DCPA4 Semi Acoustic
Akai MPK Mini
Logic Pro X

"I Know, You Know" written by Kevin Smith.

On a cold Decembers night, 
looking for love, looking for life.
Find it hard just to pay the rent, 
just to find out what rich meant.
And I know you know
this is exactly what I wanted.
And I hope you know
what I wanted.

Never thought I'd straight up, leave you,
But it's all an expensive preview 
of what's lurking in the dark.
So the lights are shining brightly,
and I hope you'll feel my slightly,
when I say it's true.

So don't you know, where I've been,
And it gives me hope, and that's something to believe in.
So wont you show, just how you feel,
and as a sucker, a lover, an individual fucker,
dont you know...
I know.

Just a young 20-something guy,
tell it true, I will tell no lie.
This is what's to come.
And I may be from the West,
I look good in my Sunday Best,
just to rub it in.

So don't you know, 
what I wanted.
And I hope you know,
what I wanted.

Never thought I'd straight up, leave you,
But it's all an expensive preview 
of what's lurking in the dark.
So the lights are shining brightly,
and I hope you'll feel my slightly,
when I say it's true.

So don't you know, where I've been.
And it gives me hope, and that's something to believe in.
So wont you show, just how you feel,
and as a sucker, a lover, an individual fucker,
dont you know...
I know.

And when the lights are down low,
and there's nowhere else to go.
Girl, don't you know that I've got hope in high places.
When you walk by,
I get adrenaline, get so high.

Never thought I'd straight up, leave you,
But it's all an expensive preview 
of what's lurking in the dark.
So the lights are shining brightly,
and I hope you'll feel my slightly,
when I say it's true.

So don't you know, where I've been,
And it gives me hope, and that's something to believe in.
So wont you show, just how you feel,
and as a sucker, a lover, an individual fucker,
dont you know...
I know.
I know.


"I Know, You Know"

just a quick rendition of Django's "Swing 42", took me a while to figure out the chord structure, but I got there. :)
