That really is a good cut!  The guitar sound and playing is just right!  What am I hearing?

The whole song is well done as can be, but this change up here is tastefully brilliant.....

I liked the guitar tracks, they sound warm, with a pleasant brilliance and presence.

Thanks for listening! Yep, REDD plugin is my new favorite!

Remake of the original recording using some of the original audio files from 2004 and combining these with real drums, bass and other tools in Reason. Song was later treated in Live using Waves NLS, REDD 51 and Slate Digital's VTM plugins.

Lyrics

What if I opened my heart and showed you everything
Everything inside...
What would you say if I told you everything
Everything in the back of my mind

Would you laugh at me?
Cry with me?
Get by with me?
Smile...
Take a walk on the water
See the moon in my eyes
Come on, play with fire..

Your eyes used to look right thru me
I felt me fade from view..

Didn't your Momma once think I was no good for you?
Did you too, my love?
Wouldn't she lead you to apes with brains and telephones?
Would she do it again?
She would...

So stay with me
Come play with me
'Cause I'm the same old boy you used to know
Take a walk on the water
See the moon in my eyes
Come on, play with fire

Nothing comes from nothing
And nothing's all I receive/believe
I walk thru a world a strangers
No familiarity..

Play With Fire

I've been a singer-songwriter all my life.

Started the typical route with piano lessons and guitar as a kid then later pursued it more fully at Northwestern University's School of Music.

After a decade of writing & recording in LA, I've been back in the Midwest writing a mix of songs as well as instrumentals.

Most of my work is created using Propellerhead Reason although I do use Ableton Live on occasion.

How my artist music has been described....

"Ramin's words go beyond the lyric to the poetic serving up pathos and 70's-style. Think Travis 1972 in a New York Art-Bar."
