Great vocal & lyrics🤘 Well done y’all

thats really unique - you have found your own way in creating songs out of your history... thanks for posting!

Classic 'November Sound' distinctive style here. Excellent.

An absolute hit - all in it as it should have been!

Not really alt rock but the guitar solo at the end is fairly anarchic. 

To Fly or not to Fly 

To fly or not to fly YES!
To fly or not to fly NO! 

To fly or not to fly that is the question.    
It’s a no brainer ‘cept for the greedy and absurd.   
There’s kilos of carbon coming from engines. 
While the earth below - floods and burns

M’lady says she’s gotta fly yeah it’s in the blood            
She’s gotta have exotica - it’s there for the taking
Even though people of the world - are under the pump
And down there in the wheat fields – the crops are baking

To fly or not to fly YES!
To fly or not to fly NO! 

Hate being a gloomy carrier pigeon
But the writings there on the internet
The forecast for earth - it’s grim and turgid
Makes it dumb to fly airliner jets

M’lady says the scientists - will find a solution
There’s no need to live  - like a peasant farmer
She don’t need to feel shame - about her vapor trail
Hey she’s never been - to West Estonia

TO FLY OR NOT TO FLY

Purple Microdot---Released 11/13/22
To me the best part is art —-so draw your own conclusions
A Kaleidoscope filled with hope ——-not illusions
Color in each track ————-just to keep you grooving
Glitter fills the Road—-street rhythms keep you moving

If you don’t know —-here you go 
but keep it on the down low 
my minds corrupt ——but whose mind is not
acid drop—— old-school hip-hop 
baseline—-roof top ——gonna rip —this track up
Full-blown goosebumps —when I hear a beat drop
from the bottom to the top —desire goes nonstop 
going without knowing —but it has to be done 
Raw yet polish —-and created for fun
 
Chorus
Guitar riffs and jazz lines ——like rainbows and sunshine
No limits no guidelines——I’ll start off with a peace sign
don’t even try to undermine——Or I’ll peal back your hairline —
Love it when my stars align——You know I’mer get mine
Feeding off the sound like a starving vampire 
music in my blood turns a spark into fire
The progeny of lyrics—-rhythm tunes—-desire
Made to Pierce your soul ——like a suit of Bob-wire
A suit of Bob-wire

Hang tight and ride this storm of ——forget me Nut
Left-brain—right track—call it —-purple microdot
And you know I’ll be here—— from —-time to time
Fucking with your mind ————at the drop of a dime
Underground—-under the tongue—-paint a mental picture
yo—you’ll never really know when the acids gonna hit ya
And you know that I’m truly a  part of you——so That suit is gonna fit ya

----------Chorus-------

God status—-here we go at last—-
from the bottom to the top —break that hour glass——
So why you think your teeth shattering ———so damn fast
It a personal experience—-a one man class
No sleep for those who know ———-the afterglow 
Are Y’all ready for the show…..
no malice establish—-and it’s hitting on the spot
a God’s made —-to love it all——-that—— purple microdot


This that aftershock—-Tha aftershock—-Tha aftershock
From the acid drop ———Mine corrupt 
time stop ———-brain cells begin to pop 
bottom to the top ——a mental——hotspot 
Mesmerizing sound —-kicking kilowatts ——kilowatts ——kilowatts
of purple microdot 
hip-hop Woodstock ——hip-hop Woodstock ——-hip-hop Woodstock

LYRICS:
----------------------------
(townie)
People in this town, they've all seen you hangin' around
They don't like it
They're not buyin' what you're sellin', standing' on your box and yellin'
They don't like it
Their sentiment is strong, and they asked you move along
They don't like it. They really don't like it.

(monty)
People in this town, one by one they sneak around
They seem to like it
They come and they go, they never let the neighbors know
That they like it
They may hide it from the rest, but their coins inside my chest say they like it
Oh, I think they like it. They like it.

(townie)
With your shell games and dice, I ain't tellin' you twice
I don't like it
They're down on their knees while you sell them your disease
I don't like it
With your slug milk and wine, they're just fish on your line
I don't like it I really don't like it.

(monty)
I am just a businessman, I make my living where I can
The way I like it
I am sure you understand, I'm just meeting their demand
And I like it
So there's no need to taunt, I just give them what they want and they like it, 
Oh I think they like it, and I like it

(townie)
They say that you're depraved, that you're sick and can't be saved
We don't like it.
And the medicine you sell isn't making them well
We don't like it.
So just get on down the road, if you'd like, I'll help you load
We don't like it. We really don't like it.

(monty)
My patience wearing thin, I take another one on the chin
Because they like it.
So I guess I'll up and go, take my tack and tents in tow
I don't like it
But your virtue is a clown, so I'll go to the next town
Where they like it. I'll go where they like it.
Where they like it.

TAFFETA | 165

"Le café" is one of my favourite pieces from The Nutcracker. I used to listen to it on my mp3 player, but for some bizarre reason, fully turning up the volume wasn't enough to listen to all the instruments. A solution came one night. The silence and solitude of the late hours allowed me to enjoy the beauty of one of Tchaikovsky's greatest works. Back then, to compose music was just a dream. Now, it's something I simply do, and I love it.

Thank you for listening to my music this year, Merry Christmas to y'all.

†ॐ

Music composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
Originally titled "Danse arabe (Le café)", from "The Nutcracker" ballet and suite.
Arrangement by Thomas O'Higgins Horna.

Cover art: "The Absinthe Drinker" (1876) by Edgar Degas. Edited by me.

"Exactly Like You"  - November Sound
I tried to be different but it just wasn't true.
I tried to be my own person but I became you.

This song explores the possibility that someone from your family was not a good influence on you. Maybe your past, your experiences and your memories from them are just not good. Maybe you said, "I will never be like that!" And, you tried to be different......you really tried.......

This song features synth lead played on EWI by Bill.

Music & Lyrics: Bill
Vocals: Melissa
Drums: Will
Piano, Keyboards, EWI: Bill

Lyrics:
You disowned me but still I’m right back here.
The past it haunts but I keep in check my fear.
You don’t know me. No, you never did.
The curse of the family finds this forlorn kid.

I tried to be different but it just wasn’t true.
I tried to be my own person but I became you.  
I tried to be somebody else.  
I tried to be somebody new.  
I tried to be somebody else   …… but I turned out exactly like you.




Bills Note:
I picked up an EWI, set that thing to use saxophone fingerings and haven't looked back. I want to be the David Hannah of EWI. :)

Lyrically the concept of "Exactly Like You" is the opposite of "Strong Love". It starts out with that dark feeling of the past that continually haunts you and your wish that things could have been better. But, by the end the song becomes more uplifting.......almost joyful...... representing an acceptance of the events that shaped your very being.

I love the way this song feels at the end. Will can lay down a club beat like nobody's business and Melissa's vocal delivery is just so unique and cool. This actually was going to be a rough draft as I merely wanted Melissa to record a vocal reference track for me to work with..... true to form she just nailed it right out of the gate. 

So here it is. If you actually read this far then God bless you! You are very important to us!

It's 2023 and we're still blocking and reporting the indie-spammer rockstar wannabe messengers so we can actually have meaningful connections with good and honest people. If you want to DM us something about how we should buy your stuff, subscribe to your channel or follow you .... DON"T!
DM us for friendly & real conversation only. Our songs are not up for review. If you want to DM us some production advice, mix critique or regurgitate some crap about but bass frequencies or something you learned on YouTube once ... DON'T! 
Thanks! Friends can always send us new songs just no spam messages, please. We are real people. Please be real people too.

We are a mother, father and son trio - see us performing live here:

*****We do not autotune Melissa's voice!*****
November Sound features powerful lead vocals with creative drum and keyboard driven musical arrangements. We try to create alternative music with intricate rhythms and a modern sophisticated sound. Thank you for listening! 

Melissa (Mom) - Lead vocals
Bill ( Dad) - Keyboards, songwriting, arranging, recording, production
Will (Son) - Drums, percussion, electronic drums, arranging

We create and perform all of the sounds that you hear. We rarely ever use any loops or tracks....we also do live performances of our music whenever we can! ( of course, not quite as full sounding without the multi-track recording)
***
We seem to get a number of new followers each week and sometimes it is hard to know who is real or not. If you are our friend from Songwriters in the Kitchen, YouTube, Facebook or Twitter please send us a DM and let us know so we can follow you back.
Friends (emphasis on FRIENDS not spammers) feel free to DM when you have a track out!
Also ---
We have been getting a lot of unsolicited offers from people who want to mix or master our music. Though we are thankful that you consider us worthy we are choosing not to respond to these messages.
We all read blogs and watch the videos where a fancy man in a designer T-Shirt says to find a band that you like and offer to mix their music for free to build up your portfolio. Eventually you'll be able to make a living, working at home, doing what you love. That sure sounds great! Hey, if you believe that we are that good and you want to mix our music then we are very flattered and thankful for your support. However, we don't want a transaction like that to take away from our friendship with you and we also just like to take time to create our own music.... that's part of the fun for us. We don't really have plans to be famous or make money with music. We are merely a small family living out in the woods, in a small town, in a small state in a small region that is called New England, USA. .....that's all.

Exactly Like You

November Sound
