Feb 2022 collab
Ripped from the palindromic lyrics of @eleismo , who wrote some great words. https://fawm.org/songs/134585/
I decided to sing the lyrics backwards ( the lyric photos were also stolen from elesimo’s page). I was trying to sound like I was singing behind a pane of glass and didn’t quite pull that off. I’ll try again next year.
I lost all my notes and chords on this due to my digital buffoonery. All I had was a demo recording I made from yesterday to help not forget the idea. I decided to use it in the song and one word was wrong.... Hence the title change....

Clever. Clever- just admiring the brilliant way you’ve inserted the lyrics upside down . Lol. Sounds of the ocean on the background?
@grandbrother Feb 2022
This is brilliant. It feels like a field recording catching a some impossible country landscape with one lone inhabitant amusing themselves with tune. Great stuff.
@rubberbandage Feb 2022
Super clever that you could just chop out the middle and of course it still works! It sounds more like sung through a small radio than glass, but I think that works even better with the camp vibe.
I like the intensity of the spoken words too, a weird mix of unsettling and heartfelt! Awesome work.

Well executed, barely felt the transition from rain to sea, and then suddenly I was somewhere else.

Cool idea to flip the lyrics and see how the meaning still comes through. The rain becomes ocean/ocean becomes rain... interesting sound-wise, the static and distant vocals add dimensions of physical distance and emotional intimacy, a bonfire crackling and the ocean waves crashing. Interesting, thought-provoking, unique.

Love how you incorporated the sounds of the ocean! And the demo recording is great, I love the music!

I find recordings like this so interesting. There's a spooky, voyeuristic quality to this. Like someone left the phone recording during a private moment of solitude.
