holy shit that chorus blew up brother and ended with a major involuntary stankface for me!!!!  WAY TO GO!!!  "flow" is a fantastic word for the verse.  love the juxtaposition of that greasy nasty verse and lofty billowy chorus.  killer as always Rog.

Really like the style. Great voice, as well.

I always dig how your lyrics are powerful without ever being preachy.

Here's a song I wrote and played.

TURN

Every day is a decision
To make the most of your position
Can we talk now, will you listen?
What's the point that we been missing?

Cuz I'm helpless and I'm hopeless
Felt this when I wrote this
Tired of running round and hopin
Nobody will notice

I'm open to the notion
The lack of forward motion
Rests squarely on the back
Of this empty and blind devotion

How do we find light in the darkest hour?
How do we find love when we don't know the sound?
How can we find trust when we don't have the power?

Where do we turn when the world starts to burn?
Tell me who do we call when the mountains all fall?

Every day is a decision
To make the most of your position
Can we talk now, will you listen?
What's the point that we been missing?

I know it ain't the world
I know it ain't every man & woman, boy & girl
It's just a handful of can't pull the
Wool over your eyes so they leave ya blinded
Don't need no disguise cuz they
Keep ya grindin

How do we find light in the darkest hour?
How do we find love when we don't know the sound?
How can we find trust when we don't have the power?

Where do we turn when the world starts to burn?
Tell me who do we call when the mountains all fall?

Turn - demo

Hello Souncloudians!  This is a bit of an experiment for me.  I am lucky enough to play & record music with the band Mingo Fishtrap.  That is 99% of my musical life.  But there are lots of songs that get written that don't make it to the Mingo records, and demos of songs and tidbits that do make it, but I like the demo, because they're raw, or funny, or whatever.  So I've decided I'd post some here.  Feel free to download and send other folks here. But I'd appreciate it if you didn't distribute the tunes, cuz I'd like to keep track of how many ears are listening.  
This is also where the songs for songwriting groups I'm in might end up...might be private, cuz they usually aren't ready for prime time. But if you want to listen, drop a line.
