Two originals - Captain & Break In the Weather
Hey guys, even though my period of doing acoustic stuff for a while is kind of done, these are some of my songs that I recorded that I was somewhat happy with. The Break In the Weather song vocals are a little dodgy - it was pretty early in the morning. But its pretty much close, just little nuances here and there
These were recorded in my room - drums done with EZdrummer through fruity loops. They are very 'Jack Johnsony' I'd love to hear comments and critique, but to be honest at this point in time I wouldn't change them. Please don't let that hold you back! Break In the Weather starts off slow but about halfway through all the instruments come in. Here are the two songs: Captain Break In the Weather Captain is one of my favorite songs I've written and Break in the Weather was to help me feel better, if you somehow missed that in the lyrics Captain: We used to sail on intuition Winds high, begin, the expedition When we had holes We'd fix them But now we're rusted incomplete and... The high seas Are a little lower now The wind has somewhat died down And all of the mysteries Have been explained by history So captain Where do you wanna go? That we haven't already been The winds that brought us - motors conquered the breeze The waves that rocked us - now are parted with ease Navigation by starlight Thrown off by satellite So captain Where can we go? That we haven't already been Break In the Weather: I'm waiting for a break in the weather Maybe it'll help me feel better but I Well I don't know Haven't seen the sun in over a week People talking to me with tongue in cheek Maybe it's just me There's been a cloud above my head for some time And sometimes the one you love Can't ever seem to make up their mind And hope come pouring from your eyes and from the sky like rain It'll wet your taste, then be washed away Been waiting for a break in the weather I'm hoping it'll help me feel better but I I still don't know Hanging over like the overcast The funny thing about the past Is it never seems to last There's been a cloud above my head for some time And sometimes the one you love Can't ever seem to make up their mind And hope come pouring from your eyes and from the sky like rain It'll wet your taste, then be washed away Finally there's a break in the weather Told you it would help me feel better Well I'll admit, I wasn't so sure Looking back now it seems so silly A little heartbreak it ain't gonna kill me, no There's so much more There's been a cloud above my head for some time And sometimes the one you love Can't ever seem to make up their mind And hope come pouring from your eyes and from the sky like rain It'll wet your taste, then be washed away But the sun will come and dry up all of your tears When it kisses your face remember that I told you all I needed to help me feel better Was a little break, break in the weather |

Hey thanks a lot! I will have to check him out. Are you sure they sound ok? I'm the most insecure about my singing..
