Lovely breathy voice and confessional song. I thought we were going Nick Drake for a while but you went your own way with those cellos (?)  -and interesting modulations of your voice. Love the solitary  verse towards the end which duets with the strings. A Very accomplished  and enjoyable song!

So nice! Very good interpretation. Upper level pop song! And I love your voice!

Another gem, Penny! Love your sound - the strings, the harmonies! Delightful!

Awesome song and beautiful singing there!

Above all, never stop. Lots of imagination and musicality.

This is the (painstakingly) remixed and (somewhat less painstakingly) remastered version of Last Train Out, from the 4 Good Measure Album

4 Good Measure

Last Train Out

🔥 Oblique Pressure isn’t a ballad — it’s a charge.
At 160 BPM, driven by raw stereo guitar riffs, heavy synth bass, and a tense rhythm, this track dives into pure energy — a collision of sharp rock and electrified pulse.

The lyrics echo a fractured world where memory fades, voices distort, and the line between human and machine starts to blur. It’s a spiral of noise, broken circuits, and relentless oblique pressure.

🎧 A track for those who crave intensity, chaos, and release.

Bit of a disclaimer... I can't speak or understand Spanish, I just Google translated my lyrics until it sounded alright. So apologies if it's all total nonsense. Just basically for a bit of a laugh and to mix it up a bit because I was playing a nylon string guitar.


LYRICS 

Caminando en sombras del amanecer,
el viento susurra lo que fue ayer,
mis pasos vacíos no tienen control,
la luz se esconde tras el farol,
el cielo negro nunca verá el sol.

Las estrellas caen en su prisión,
brillan un segundo, luego son dolor,
la noche se traga cada emoción,
grita el silencio sin redención,
el cielo negro nunca verá el sol.

Promesas rotas flotan en el mar,
sin rumbo fijo, sin un hogar,
el alma tiembla sin dirección,
perdida en su propia confusión
el cielo negro nunca verá el sol.

Son, I cannot explain what I have done.
I can never tell you where I've gone.
All that I will leave is this guitar.
el cielo negro nunca verá el sol.

Translation (Google)

Walking in the shadows of dawn,
the wind whispers what was yesterday,
my empty steps have no control,
the light hides behind the lantern,
the black sky will never see the sun.

The stars fall into their prison,
they shine for a second, then they are pain,
the night swallows every emotion,
the silence screams without redemption,
the black sky will never see the sun.

Broken promises float in the sea,
without a fixed course, without a home,
the soul trembles without direction,
lost in its own confusion
the black sky will never see the sun.

Son, I cannot explain what I have done.
I can never tell you where I've gone.
All that I will leave is this guitar.
The black sky will never see the sun.

El cielo negro

The song is about the pain of discovering all deceitful friends. Why do we tolerate the betrayal?

A nostalgic journey wrapped in melody. This track pulls you into a haze of bittersweet memories—of summer nights, faded moments, and echoes of the past. Perfect for lost thoughts and quiet reflection.

Envy

While I kept living in the shadows I was missing the sun Realising far too late You were the one

If I had heard you knocking Boy I would’ve opened the door I would not have kept you Waiting anymore

It was over before I Could ask the boy to stay Mighta kept him here in front of me If I knew he’d walk away

I couldn’t see you in front of me Too blind to know we were meant to be I got a habit of finding out the hard way When I’m wrong

Thought I was stronger when I’m alone Not hurting more than I’d ever known I bet they’d tell me I’m crazy I’m not right where I belong

I’d overthink a bit, 
I’d overthink of everything Every choice I’d make 
I’d keep on questioning 
You didn’t need to worry 
‘bout my worrying No you couldn’t be certain 
I could beat uncertainty

It was over before I Could ask the boy to stay Mighta kept him here in front of me If I knew he’d walk away

I couldn’t see you in front of me Too blind to know we were meant to be I got a habit of finding out the hard way When I’m wrong

Thought I was stronger when I’m alone Not hurting more than I’d ever known I bet they’d tell me I’m crazy I’m not right where I belong

I couldn’t see you in front of me Too blind to know we were meant to be I got a habit of finding out the hard way When I’m wrong
Thought I was stronger when I’m alone Not hurting more than I’d ever known I bet they’d tell me I’m crazy I’m not right where I belong
