A cool project.  You never know what you get from a tune when it has been fastracked.  Great job for sure!

very smooth<3 I love the vocals, especially the background!:)

j'aime le message transmis par cette chanson ♥️

I can hear the memory, in my Amiga
It's like a ghost that's fading in and out
Distant voices of the past, from a bygone era
They're calling out to me, what's it all about?

I can feel the ghost in my Amiga
The echoes of the past still linger on
I can feel the ghost in my Amiga
The memories of a time that's gone

I can hear the music, from the floppy disk
It seems to take me back to a better time
The colors and the sounds, the way it used to be
How could I forget all that it meant to me

I can feel the ghost in my Amiga
The echoes of the past still linger on
I can feel the ghost in my Amiga
The memories of a time that's gone

I can hear the laughter, of the old games we played
It brings back so many memories of days gone by
We used to have so much fun, before the world went crazy
But I still have the ghost in my Amiga

Timing The Kill

This is a song JJ came up with on bass, organ, and electric piano, originally to share with a singer. She declined, and I swooped in to grab it. I really like how it starts very funky, then goes into a Floydy jam. I added some wah guitar, slide, and some tremolo heavy rhythm guitar. At the same time, Ken (K2 and the Three, and K2 and the Four)added the perfect kit drums and the hand drums, which give it a whole next-level dimension. JJ then went in and added the very cool synth lead you hear in the second part. I also really like his electric piano solo in the second part. Of course, we weren't done yet, because someone had to mix the beast. And that someone was the master of the mix, the chairman of the board, Tez (Llanpsych). He is a true life wizard behind the board and with an ax, although we only got the mix out of him on this one. Anyway, we all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

■概要(Overview)
あ～今日も楽器のお稽古に疲れちゃったわ～
左手が上手く動かないのよね～関係ないけどお腹空いたし
パン屋に寄って帰ろう
あ、そうだ、左手にトングを持って左手の練習してみようかな
え～っと、ドーナツは・・あっ、でも今日はチョココロネが食べたい気分
・・はっ！・・視線を感じる・・ドーナツの！
------------------
・・・・そんな事を想像して作った曲です。

Ah, I'm tired from practicing my instrument today too.
My left hand isn't working properly. It doesn't matter, but I'm hungry.
Let's go to the bakery and go home.
Ah, that's right, I think I'll try holding the tongs in my left hand and practice my left hand.
Um, donuts... ah, but today I feel like eating chocolate coronet.
...Ha! ...I feel the gaze...of the donut!
---------------------------
...This is a song I created while imagining something like that.

■歌詞
「いらっしゃいませ！」
パン屋に寄ったの帰り道
クルミパンとチョココロネ
ああ　ドーナツを選ばなかった

それでもやっぱり気になって
チラッと横目で見てしまう
綺麗に並んだドーナツが
悲しそうだ

笑顔にするため
生まれてきたのに
通り過ぎるなんて
出来なくなっていた

♪♪♪(あなたの事を待っていた)♪♪♪

左利きのふりして(優しい手で今)
トレーにのせた
震えた手で落とさないように

自分でもわからない
そんなこと
くだらないよ
見せかけだよ
偽善的だよ
自分に酔ってさ
(あなたが決めた事)

もしも私がこのドーナツを
手に取らなかったら
そして気まぐれを起こさなかったら
おやつ食べた天使の笑顔
見れたかもしれないのに


毎週買ってたドーナツ
たまには食べたいチョココロネ
ああ　誘惑に　負けてしまった

心の声：「それなら一緒に買っちゃいな」
心の声：「甘いものならばいくらでも食べきれるはずよ」
心の声：「迷いは不要よ」

♪♪♪(あなたの笑顔見れるかな)♪♪♪
♪♪♪

優柔不断で風見鶏
煮え切らないの　それって・・駄目ね
曇った心で純粋なあなたの気持ちを
ふざけた左手で触って壊した
天使の笑顔が見れたはずなのに

「無意味」なだけじゃなくて
「有害な存在」であると気付いた

♪♪♪♪♪♪

(甘い誘惑ね・・)
(正解は無いわ)
(あなたの思うままでいいはずよ)

何も望むものは無いわ
ドーナツが寂しそうだったから・・

もしも私がこのドーナツを
手に取らなかったら
そして気まぐれを起こさなかったら
おやつ食べた天使の笑顔
見れたかもしれないのに


(私たちには選択権は無いの)
(あなたは恵まれた環境にいるくせに・・)
(公園のベンチの真ん中に座って)
(ひじ掛けに左手を置いて)
(遠くの空を眺めながら)
(ため息をつく)
(そうやってかじった一口目の私はさぞかし甘いでしょうね)
(二口、三口と食べ続けて)
(最後の一口を食べ終える頃)
(あなたはすっかり忘れているはずよ)
(私たちの事を)
(まるで初めから存在しなかったかのように)

子供：「お母さん、ドーナツ食べたいよ」
母親：「さっき笹団子食べたばっかりでしょ」
子供：「えーっ、もっと、もっとー！」
母親：「いい加減にしてちょうだい」

(・・・いらっしゃいませ！)

■Lyrics
"welcome!"
On the way home from a stop at the bakery
Walnut bread and chocolate coronet
Oh she didn't choose donuts

Still, I'm still curious
I glance sideways
Donuts lined up neatly
Looks sad

to make people smile
was born
Thinking like that, I can't just pass by
could not


♪♪♪(I was waiting for you)♪♪♪

Pretending to be left-handed (with gentle hands now)
I put it on the tray
I was careful not to drop it with my trembling hands.

I don't even know myself
Such a thing
It's trivial
It's just a sham
That's hypocritical
get drunk on yourself
(That's your decision)

If I didn't put this donut on the tray
And if I don't cause a whim
The smile of an angel who ate a snack
they could have seen

Donuts I bought every week
Chocolate corone that I want to eat once in a while
Ah, I gave in to temptation.

Voice in my heart: “Then let’s buy it together.”
Inner voice: "If it's sweet, I'm sure I can eat as much as I want."
Voice in my heart: “There’s no need to hesitate.”

♪♪♪(Can I see your smile)♪♪♪
♪♪♪

Weathervane with indecision
My heart doesn't boil over. That's no good.
With a clouded heart, your pure feelings
I playfully touched it with my left hand and broke it.
I should have seen the smile of an angel

Not just “pointless”
I realized that I was a “harmful presence”

♪♪♪♪♪♪

(Sweet temptation...)
(There is no correct answer)
(It should be whatever you want)

There's nothing I want
However, I thought Donut looked lonely...

If I didn't put this donut on the tray
And if I don't cause a whim
The smile of an angel who ate a snack
they could have seen

(We don't have a choice)
(Even though you are in a privileged environment...)
(You're sitting in the middle of a park bench)
(You put your left hand on the armrest)
(While you look at the distant sky)
(You sigh)
(The taste of your first bite of mine will be really sweet.)
(Keep eating two and three bites)
(By the time you finish your last bite)
(You must have completely forgotten)
(about us)
(As if it never existed in the first place)

Child: "Mom, I want to eat donuts."
Mother: “You just ate bamboo dumplings, right?”
Child: “Eh, more, more!”
Mother: “Please take it easy.”

(···welcome!)

Irasshaimase!(Welcome!)

Taking only about 30 min to write this seemed a bit of a throw away but had 'live' potential and so it proved. Looking back through life there's moments you would change if you could . . . 

See Yourself as Yourself

Look back - go back - look in the rear view mirror
And see yourself as yourself and shudder 
‘Bout decisions and actions

Thinking ‘bout her, flood the mind 
And hormone’s, long slow torture
Shock of her face, hair in a state 
Can I just go, walk with her

No no no – verboten – society thick in the air – claustrophobia

Look back - go back - look in the rear view mirror
And see yourself as yourself and shudder 
‘Bout decisions and actions

Seeing that, ‘out for myself’ thing 
Yeah, that gotta go, grab that pleasure 
Could’ve done that man, some real good 
But instead, closed up shop early
       
Grim effort – rode a wave – he’ll be back tomorrow – ok!

Get back look back, look in the rear view mirror
And see yourself as yourself and shudder 
‘Bout decisions and actions

Yeah yeah yeah. Wo ho a couple of memories
There’s so many more
Yeah yeah yeah, so many more, try to bury them yeah

SEE YOURSELF AS YOURSELF

A lill tune - thank you for listening 
Music and words by Netta&McGill

-
Awesomely Swell

Didn’t see right from left
Surely the sweetest theft 
Many feelings inside
But in tune with my mind

Didn’t know left from right
Hidden in plain sight
Unaware, eveun naivety 
Caught up eventually 
                      
With patience, my dear                             
We’ll be good, very clear 
Speaking out, listen well
Sometimes awesomely swell
Sometimes awesomely swell

Much in need of a guide
Right there by my side
Now trust without fear
What’s true in my ear

Didn’t see right from left
Surely the sweetest theft 
Didn’t know left from right
But now in plain sight

Yeah with patience, my dear
We’re good, it’s so clear 
Speaking out, even tell

Sometimes awesomely swell
Sometimes awesomely swell
Sometimes awesomely swell

Awesomely Swell
