The song is written by Kate Bush. I own nothing.

This is what God knows how many shots of vodka do to my voice. lol Will probably delete it soon.

Drunk Me Singing Wuthering Heights

Just me singing The Hanging Tree. I based it on this version which I believe to be the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKrCE1aYz7o I think the Bluesy version that JLaw sings doesn't suit Katniss that much, so I went for the folksy version.

The Hanging Tree (cover)

I've always loved traditional Irish tune. And I've just finished Assassin's Creed IV and this song got stuck in my head. Sorry for the low-fi recording.

The Parting Glass

"Clockwork Girl"
Arsenic Delight

My first recorded song ever. Made using Mixcraft 6, Audacity and various free sound effects I found online. The lyrics are, of course, tongue-in-cheek. (The girl in this song wants to make pies out of her child's meat. How serious can I be?)
Arsenic Delight is my solo project.

Lyrics:
If you cut me, you will see
I bleed cogs and gears.
You may invite me to your funeral,
But I'll shed no tear.

[chorus]
I'm not flesh and blood.
I'm not soft to touch.
Brass and steel are my feel.
My emotions never real.
Ticktock - do you hear?
Ticktock - that's the fear
That you didn't have of me.
Now arsenic's in your tea.
I say I love you,
But that's hardly true.
See my apathy unfurl?
I am just a clockwork girl.

Oops! I'm sorry. Hope you're not mad at me.
I just dropped our child
Into a grinder under Sweeney's barber's.
I think he just died.

[chorus]

Like a clock I'm wound, by hunger for death.
It is my life force.
If I am to stop this morbid passion,
I'll perish, of course.

[chorus]

I will destroy the soul you gave.
Like time, I'll take you to your grave.

[chorus]

Never mind the silly name for the mix. I got a comment from a comrade of mine to mix it with violin and accordion as main lines. I thought I would upload the new one over the old one. Turns out it's too different, so I uploaded it separately. I kinda like the new one better, since it sounds more Victorian and thus more Steampunk. What do you think?

Arsenic Delight - Clockwork Girl (Run Away and Join the Circus Mix)

Just in time for the Chinese year of snake! The sound is not Chinese, though. It is a mix of Celtic and Indian. I had the melody in my head many years ago, and the lyrics were written in 2011. (Apparently, I'm quite a procrastinator!) This song is easier to made than Clockwork Girl, since it came to me in an ethereal form, and I knew exactly what to do here. Making it to be as good as it sounds in my head was a challenge, though. I'm still not 100% pleased with it. But then again, does perfection really exist at all?
 
Made with Mixcraft 6. Picture from sxc.hu

Lyrics:

Taste my venom. Feel my bite.
Feel my embrace, the last one of your life.

I am your terror, I am your horror,
For if in your flesh my teeth are sunk,
I can render your body rigid
With poison of twisted truth on my tongue

Ignore the sane, the soft and the saccharine-sweet,
For your spirit's too serpentine.
See instead yourself on my sleek skin.
Kiss me now to taste truth in my lies...
Though you won't survive.

I am Satanic. I'm also phallic.
In plain sight, I am still mystery.
You may worship me, or your saint may banish me.
My swift form will always haunt your stories.

Ignore the sane, the soft and the saccharine-sweet,
For your spirit's too serpentine.
See instead yourself on my sleek skin.
Kiss me now to taste truth in my lies...
Though you won't survive.

I lie in the sun in watchful peace,
Fight when provoked and hunt for my needs.
My victims are much fewer than yours,
Yet to you I am cold-blooded fiend.

Ignore the sane, the soft and the saccharine-sweet,
For your spirit's too serpentine.
See instead yourself on my sleek skin.
Kiss me now to taste truth in my lies.
Ignore the sane, the soft and the saccharine-sweet,
For your spirit's too serpentine.
See instead yourself on my sleek skin.
Kiss me now to taste truth in my lies...
Though you won't survive.

The song without my annoying vocal. Feel free to sing along. Enjoy!
