Road Apples
Play
Gone Long Gone is my latest Sad Hill Cemetery song - a hurtin' song...adivorce song. Interesting that I've never been divorced, but oh well. I've joined an alt-country band here called Sam Hall and the Straw Dawgs, and we're playing tunes more in the country genre than the stuff I used to play. It's fun - that's what counts, really. You can check them out at www.myspace.com/strawdawgs if you're interested. The singer has a GREAT country voice.
OK - I've had people praise this tune as a work of near majestic proportions. I had one person tell me "I ain't buying what you're selling - Achy Breaky Heart is how it's done right" (shudder). Angelika got it right - it was/is a fun song - first to write and record, and hopefully now to listen to. No deep underlying message here - I hope that's obvious! However, the musical influences behind the song are genuine. I ain't making fun o' a part of my musical heritage - as much as I might have denied it when I ewas young...and dark and tall.
Well, there's a mod at Soundclick that doesn't really like me anymore. I guess if you hang long enough, you're bound to make enemies. I'm the sort that, when I see an injustice, i tend to want to fight against it. Anyway, please listen to my new song. i think it's a good one.
I've got one of my own songs playing on this profile page. I would love to spin other peoples' music from my radio station...however, my music is much better! No, just kidding. It's an experiment to see if it adds to total play counts or not. I know this information fascinates you... I'll let everyone know what the results are.
