Mr. Jaded
Everyone is putting up such good songs tonight that I thought I'd spoil the party with something sloppy. I put this together this afternoon & it needs tons of work. I know the vocals need big time eq surgery, & I've got a flat place in one of the choruses that needs to be fixed. Actually, I'm trying to decide if I like it. Oh well, herehttp://www.billgaunce.com/song/2

Re: Mr. Jaded
Man, bloody great vocals. I hear where yur headed with this and its poppy alright with a tich of 60's feel. I can here this in a modern chick flick with a guy walking out on a cheatin girlfriend or something, definatly a comedy type film/tv show... Do it baby...

Re: Mr. Jaded
I dont hear any soundalikes. This is totally unique and original. You have to be the most original sounding cat around here Bill. I dont really understand the first verse but the rest of the song fits like a glove. Awesome vocal melody/harmony thing. I cant place it anywhere. Maybe an Old Genesis type thing but I grasping for straws on that.I also hear a tv/film idea here.M~

Re: Mr. Jaded
Thanks you guys. I know this is really hard to put into a genre. I had been listening to some Honeydogs (My absolute FAVORITE band for about 10 yrs. now). They do this great alt/country/pop Beatles influenced (to me) stuff that slides between all of the cracks but is still just really cool. Here's a link, check 'em out. They write fantastic songs.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUYLC3X_ ... latedGuess I'll try to clean this thing up a bit.

Re: Mr. Jaded
Honeydogs sound cool...but I like your stuff (including this song) better Bill!I wish I was a better listings-navigator person to find a path for this tune. I'd work on "Mr. Jaded" just because I think it's a cool song, although I can understand wanting to see a home for it first.
Earplugs may be required for anyone over the age of cool.

Re: Mr. Jaded
Love the guitars, Bill. Yeah, I hear a little "Rain" in there too.You amaze me how you just crank them out (and find time to get on the forum too). Do you ever sleep? Cam

Re: Mr. Jaded
Matt, check out Amazon, they have all of their albums & you can check out the tunes if you want. I think you'd like 'em a lot.Devin, I know there will probably never be a listing for this . . . I wouldn't even know what genre or ala either. Cam, thanks. Actually I've been slack. This is the first song I've written/recorded in two weeks!I've got the last version up now. I was able to clean it up quite a bit, think I'm gonna leave it as is & work on something else .

Bill, this is SO good...I can't find a durn thing wrong with it. Great work!I like the lyrics too...I refer to myself as jaded sometimes, so I can identify. Good melody, good production, good vocals, good everything.
