- Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": This place has a sign hangin' over the urinal that says, "Don't eat the big white mint".

Dude! That was AWESOME! The lyrics actually struck a chord with me cause I am thinking that you are actually very far away from everything. Damn! Good stuff!
Give a woman an inch and she'll take a foot. Give a woman a foot and she'll moan like a whore
A pair of Kings beats a pair of Queens because men are better than women

Alrighty Mitch.
Boatloads of passion. That's how i'd sum this up.
I've always said that you have a kickass voice but seem to lack a bit of confidence with it. Let it rip man and turn up those damn vocals.
People around here have the tendency of saying the same thing over and over like: "it was too repetitive and the progression was nothing new"... don't listen to that shit.
When you're writing a song in this kinda genre, the main focus is usually on the lyrics and vocal performance.
That's just my opinion, simplicity can be a very good thing and I really like the progression.
As for the lead bits, those harmonics in the beginning were badass and the picking at around the 1:25 sounds perfect. The solos were cool too but needed to be turned up a couple of notches.
It's way too long though.
I really like the way it builds up to the end, it just that it takes too long to get there. I'd aim for around the 4 minute mark if I were you. You could make this song feel like a giant orgasm if you keep that consistent build up.
I don't know if that helps
I'd like to hear the others if you have any. AIM me or something.

Don't think I wouldn't notice.







thanks a million man. i'll shoot for that 4 min mark, i don't know how i'll do it but i'll try. it's like i told someone else, i have a problem, i hate to end songs. as i get more up, i'll let you know, but most of them won't go up until after i get home. you know, before i left you said something to the nature of how it sucked i had to leave but it would make for some good songwriting oppertunities...you were so right. thanks a million again miguel. you're awesome.Trippin Hillbilly wrote:Alrighty Mitch.

Haha, I thought that you did it on purpose, but if you didn't....
