Wanna hear what original music sounds like as it is created? I don't let most people hear vocal demos, other than my wife and sons and the band. Vocal demos are just composition work. They don't have all the instruments. But you guys are my friends, so maybe you'll find some entertainment in this. You can all make fun of me.
But I kinda like what this song is becoming.

I'm very impressed. I hope you will take this as a compliment... It sounds very Don Henleyesque.
That's a compliment. Henley is a very good singer, and a hell of a songwriter when he puts his mind to it. And I confess that I stole the octave shift with the keening ad library in the second verse from him.
Sharing my work like this with friends is an enforced survival tactic for me. Like most songwriters, I am throughly convinced that my voice and lyrics are an embarrassing pile of utter shit. But if I don't let others hear it, I can't get better.
I feel like this is a quality most good artists share, feeling that their work is terrible. Not just songwriters, but actors, artists, writers, etc.
Some artists seem to understand that they have a talent that exceeds others. I am not one of those People have been telling me they like my songs since I was in high school, but no one ever bought one, y'know? That's my reality check. ;-)
Now that I am into the 80 years, i have dvds and cds of course they are not new but the music includes stones ,Delbert mclinton,a lot of older musicians but good music in my younger years.I will gladly ship to any one who wants them for free lots of good movies, I will pay shipping no cost to any one that would want them
