I don't like Free For All. It's ... too free. I want these contest to be a challenge. To do something within limits. To have RULES!

Thus: Rules

It's not gonna win. Who cares. It's a sort of anti song (pretentious sod - who, me? - yeah you!). Lyrics (as far as I can hear them - and I can solo the track - they're improvised):

It's free
It's free for all
What does eh that mean?
Free
Free
Free from what?
Free for who?
Free for everyone!
Free for all!
No, no, no, no
I don't get it
Don't get it
No, no, no, no, no
Free, just freezing free, freeze
Limitations, freedom
Limitation is freedom
Limitations
Rules
I want rules
Please rules

I used: lapsteel, upright piano, guitar, loads of VSTs. No drugs - just a glass of wine and an evenings work.

Another very different piece this month -
a poem.

Irregular Verb

So Simple
Concepts crush.
Profound
Children know.
I once knew
And sometimes…
But, let me sing
Listen – there between the tones.
Let me run barefoot
We live, the Earth and I.
Let us make love
And in the stillness know
Etrê - to be.

Hope you like it.

Landscape

It´s only 2 min. long.

This song is about two people. Me and young me. One of me is sitting at home after dark making silly songs and posting them on the internet. Young me can be heard a couple of times during this song.
Can you hear him laughing at the silly old bastard who's looking out a window at the sunset while trying desperately not to make another song with chord changes in it?
This song really belongs in Dark and miserable. Goddamn! I miss my bike in May...

This is my first submission please be gentle

The drums were played by a real live drummer (me), and the guitars were done by a real live guitarist (my buddy). He also did the bass, keys and effects.

I've Got To Be Me!

Enjoy!
