haha this track is awesome. a great horror story, really loved the deep growling voice and metal riffs for the "I fought them off" part

I was in love with a rotten corpse once. It didn't last for long ha ha. Love this Alice Cooperesque performance.

This is so cool Lee! Sorry I haven’t gotten to it, dark and beautiful. What a chorus love it.

wow this is really refreshing. It could stand shoulder to shoulder by both, quality and performance to Alice Cooper

Late to the party but in time for this year's Halloween! Great track guys!!!

Top quality music and prodution once again. Excellent work in all the ways. Your vocal performance it's awsome!

My 3rd collaboration with my good friend Dirk continuing the horror rock saga as with our previous 2 releases "The Butchers Of Harlington 1851" and "The Tales Of Johnny The Reaper". Though this one maybe a bit of a ballad in relation to those, yet still as it's hard edge moments and evil bite to it all. 

Once again I would like to thank my good friend Dirk for allowing me the privilege to work along with him again on another superb piece of music he created here.

The song as also been made available as a free digital download @ Bandcamp and can be had here: https://leelucas.bandcamp.com/track/in-love-with-a-rotting-corpse

The lyrics are as follows:

Miranda was 55 when she passed away
I was there holding her hand on that very day
never let it go as she lay still in bed
now it's 20 years later she's still with me
only dead

(Chorus)
I'm in love with a rotting corpse
(She's my pretty one you know)
I'm in love with a rotting corpse
(she's my love can't let her go)

Staring at the glaze in her cadever eyes
they're going to take me away one day I would here her cry
clinging to the flesh of her mortal remains
no they're not my dear, no they're not
I will dash out there brains
Then put them in a boiling pot to be later consumed
we will have them for a feast on a halloween moon
for they will fear the day they stepped near this place
and my blade will wipe away any smile on their face

I knew deep in my mind I would have to face that day
when they would eventually try and take my Miranda away
but my love is strong and will not fray
even in all this rot and decay

(Chorus)
I'm in love with a rotting corpse
(She's my pretty one you know)
I'm in love with a rotting corpse
(she's my love can't let her go)

Then that dreadful day came they was knocking at my door
it was broke down with force by the long arm of the law
but I was having nothing from their stiff upper lip
there was no way they was gonna take away my stiff

Then with a swish, lash and a slash 
I fought them off, yes I thought them off
Now let's fight 

(Break)

They took my love away 
it seems that this time the law finally got it's way
for I was much too frail
and I was off to jail

But I never showed no remorse 
about my love for a rotten corpse
No I never

Lee Lucas & Heartscore - In Love With A Rotting Corpse

I very much started out playing instruments very late in life, and spent much of my earlier days listening to it, rather than playing it. I am very much a self taught musician and regard my instruments very much like implements, tools or devices to write with, rather than being anything remotely near a good playing musician of any great technique. 

I guess I really got into instruments more back in 1994 when I got into my first band (though I did learn to play the Harmonica when I was 8 years old) it was around this time I wrote a song on the Guitar entitled Oldtime Street. The song is very much even today one that contains some of the finest lyrics I have ever written, and very much perhaps inspired me to carry on.

Though the band back in 1994 was a very short affair, it was not long after I got into a R&B band performing Rock & Blues in various pubs around my own town Birmingham. I was very much the lead singer in this outfit which lasted some 6 years. Though during these years the band had gone through several line up and name changes and came to a stop in 2001. I suppose it was a bit of relief in a sense, because it's quite easy to put a band together, but murder to keep everyone happy, and keep it going.

Even though I only really did Vocals and played my Harmonica in the band, I still found time now and then, for my guitar, and my keyboards at home, and I also contributed in a big way to our own compositions in the band.

My tools are as follows:

Studiologic VMK-188 Plus 88 Key Midi Controller Keyboard.

Yamaha PSR E303 61 Key Keyboard (Used Via Midi)

Yamaha F310 Acoustic Guitar.

Yamaha ERG121 Electric Guitar.

Encore E4 Bass Guitar.

Various Harmonicas in many Keys.

Alesis Performance Pad Pro Drum Machine & Pads. 

Audio Technica AT2020 USB Microphone.

Vic Firth Drum Sticks.

Various VST Software for Keyboards, Guitars & Mixing.

Cubase 5.

Ableton Live 8.

Steinberg Wavelab.

Influences are from mainly 70's Prog/Rock/Blues/Traditional Folk/Electronic Music.
