Giant Water

Another new song today. Giant Water was one of the first new songs written for this LP.

Giant Water


Step into the giant water
I'm listening
Though I am shouting at the top of my lungs
Let the water surround you

Time is forgotten
I'm holding your hand
Forever

The tide won't take us down
Though I'm fearful
Of the hated clouds coming round
Nothing will break us again

I swim slow-motion

No ending
The years we knew like ripples
They fall through your hands
Come with me

No rescue
A lifetime treading water
It comes speeding past
Forever

The tide won't take us down
Though I'm fearful
Of the hated clouds coming round
Nothing will break us again

This isn't happening

I won't believe in it this day
Shivers shaded me from hue
Red to blue
The days grow shorter
In the giant water
Step into the giant water

I'm listening

Mix Update

One more song done and dusted : Old Computer Instrumental which will be winging its way to this website very soon. Just got to decide whether I like it's laid back, spacey feel or whether to varispeed it up a bit. It's actually an old Additional Moog demo - more about that next time. Anyways, if you recall Nintendo SNES and Sega Master system circa 89-91 then this one's for you.

The song I'm in the middle of mixing right now is a new one called Giant Water. This has maybe got an ELO/Jeff Lynne meets Gram Parsons thing going in. It's taking some mixing because there are several layers of guitars that need to be interwoven correctly. I likes it.

You'll notice I don't really do Twitter as yet and I'm highly unlikely to join Facebook. However, feel free to share links and mp3's yo'selves, at least until the CD/24 bit download of the album is ready!
