I am proud to announce the release of RockCounsellor 8th single, 'You Can Wait', recorded and produced in collaboration with RockCounsellor's other half, Richard Campbell at Orpheus Studio. 

'You Can Wait' is a song about how some of us find ourselves in unhealthy, toxic and abusive relationships, waiting for our partners to change, which of course they do not. Production-wise, Richard and I opted for a straight-ahead 4-piece garage-rock band sound - with added Primal Scream-inspired tambourine!

You can wait...or you can listen to it now!

You Can Wait

You Can Wait (Remastered 2020) by RockCounsellor

This song came to me all at once The Lyrics / Music everything. I had to get out of bed to capture the idea for a morning session.
LIFE OUTSIDE A WINDOW BOX " Ask Yourself " by Glen Granthem
LYRICS
Would you leave behind everything you own
Start a new life create a home
Fall back naked wearing flesh and bone
Walk forward blindly to face the unknown
Live outside a window box, Electric moments unwound clocks
Could you travel the world  one day at a time
Never look back and still have peace of mind
Ride the sea in a ship with a sail
With no regret to live out this tale
Live outside a window box, Electric moments  endless talk
Ask yourself is it to late Just ask yourself if it's to late
Was there a time in life with your greatest love
You took a chance embraced god above
Running free through an open field
Then stopped to pick a daffodil 
And lived outside your window box  Electric moments endless talk
Ask Yourself is to late Just ask yourself if its to late

Life Outside A Window Box  ( Original With lyrics )

I used to climb a lot of trees, but that was when I was young – Tried to hide away from the person, the person I was – I used to sing, I used to sing with headphones on – Really thinking that I could sing – That I could sing along

Chorus:
Those days are gone,
Now, those days are gone,
All that remains
Is White Trash Blood (repeat)

I used to live, I used to live in a trailer – The neighbor across the street became a convicted serial killer – Used to see him down, I used to see him down at the pool – Probably out placing bodies in barrels while I was at school

Chorus

I always enjoyed a song about picking up – Picking up and getting far, far out of town – Something about running away and starting new – Being someone you don’t even know, forgetting who you were

Chorus

Now there are just songs that remind me of you – They remind me of you and our white trash blood – I wouldn’t have it any other, any other way – I’m embracing the feelings, inviting them in to stay

Chorus

White Trash Blood

White Trash Blood

HOW AMAZING DOES THIS SOUND?!?!?

A very very big thank you to Eric (aka The Boilerman) for remixing and mastering this track I put out a while ago. He was kind enough to offer to play around with it and man he did not disappoint!
Go give him a follow and check out his stuff https://soundcloud.com/boilerman-615719656 He also made the cover art for this!

I had to do a reupload of we will rock you (this track) because i was so shocked that my playing actually sounded good when it was properly mixed/mastered!  

THANKS ERIC! AMAZING!

Call My Name

In a way or by some means that is not known or not stated:
It won't be easy, but we'll get across the river somehow.
I'm not sure how, but somehow or other we'll raise the money.
​for a reason that is not clear:
I know what we're doing is legal, but somehow it doesn't feel right.
News of the pay cuts had somehow leaked out.
A small dog had somehow managed to survive the fire.
She's managed somehow to procure his phone number.
Although her name is Clare, her little sister called her Lali, and somehow the name stuck.
Money has been extremely tight, but we’ve managed somehow.
He felt that everything was somehow connected.
He saw that the intellectual side of him could not be wrong, somehow he must baptize it.
One could point to facets of the system and to the ideal of public service broadcasting, but somehow the whole defied adequate description.
The pages turn, but somehow it never seems to get going.
Vanished now are the untroubled meadows of spring, and the landscape acquires a realism that is somehow a little harsh.
An architecture without rhetoric is evidently an architecture that does not set out to persuade, yet somehow convinces.
The only concern is somehow to ensure nice convergence.
We can see that gerund constructions only gained frequency in those areas where they somehow came in useful.
Is not everything on this planet somehow influenced by humans?
They already know something of this from the words and meanings somehow retained in the letters and words in books you can read. 
The screen window may somehow constrain wider semantic construction of the text, and foster more literal attention to the wording.
Dreaming consists of a transparently meaningful and organized perceptual world, not of random noise that the brain struggles to make sense of somehow.
However, in 54% of the threatening events the dream self was reported to react somehow to the threatening event.
There were, however, many areas that were regularly raided and somehow survived.
None of this proves it to be somehow unfair if nobody rules at all or if social order is maintained without resorting to governance.
inputs in (51a, b) must somehow yield the corresponding outputs.
