First track I've written that I've recorded. Just a demo more than anything else.

Lyrics:

Feels like I’m on the ceiling.
While everybody else, is sat on the floor.
But maybe I’m being a fool.

Everything’s stable.
But all upside down, how long has it been?
Perhaps I’m unable to tell.

I’ve been here for hours.
And days at a time, over-thinking it all.
Am I just a coward?

I should try to get down soon.
To join all the rest, but before I do.
Perhaps I’ll just take in the view.    

I know I’m OK,
If you say so.
Yeah I’ll be OK,
I’ll come around.

Upside Down - Demo

A cover of a cover.

I'm a huge John Mayer fan and my favourite John Mayer song might well be this track. He displays some of the most beautiful guitar playing I've ever heard along with some really vulnerable and heartfelt vocals. I thought I'd try and pay homage to it.

J.J. Cale's lyrics as well are mesmerising. The song is a masterpiece.

I played every instrument and sang and programmed the drums in Garageband. I also did all the mixing and recording (hence the lo-fi, bedroom sound and poor mixing...)

Thanks for listening.

Magnolia - Cover (John Mayer, Eric Clapton & J.J. Cale)

Found a cool effect and whilst mucking around with it realised it had a real Radiohead, Thom Yorke vibe so decided to run with it and lay down a version of one of my all time favourite songs.

No Surprises - Radiohead - Garageband Cover

Love this track and decided to tackle it on an acoustic as I thought it'd be a big challenge. Let me know what you think.

Lyrics:
So run

Look back I sift through all the cliques
Roaming' the halls all year, making me sick
While everyone's out tryin to make the cut
What?
And when you think you know me right I switch it up
Behind the walls smokin' cigarettes and sippin' vodka
I profess to catch a cab, ain't no one can stop us
Give me a break about some other mess
What were you?
Act like it's everything you got

Push back the square
Now that you need her but you don't
So there you go
'Cause back in school
We are the leaders of it all

Stop that, quit! All that, quit!
Who ruined it? You did! Now grab a notebook and a pen
Start taking notes, I'm being everyone who's on the top
You think we're on the same page - but, oh we're not!
I'll be the man, watch your backpack and the pencils
Just like he now flippin it, why you just keep it simple? 
You just can't go wrong rocking' the clothes
Coppin' the stance
'Cause really is everything that you got

Push back the square
Now that you need her but you don't
So there you go!
'Cause back in school
We are the leaders of it all

So,
Transpose
So,
Transpose

Push back the square
Now that you need her but you don't
So there you go!
'Cause back in school
We are the leaders of all
