#360357 - 08/10/16 05:16 PM [User Showcase] Things You Didn`t Say
Registered: 06/09/16 Posts: 2233 Robertkc Veteran Registered: 06/09/16 Posts: 2233	https://soundcloud.com/user-564042721/things-you-didnt-say About as close to a rock song as I`ve done so far, this was written 20yrs ago but had a redo after I began listening to the Waterboys. I tried to get close to their great wild fiddle folkrock sound here. This forum has been very helpful to me... your comments are welcomed! Style is _NRTRKSW.STY (Northern Rock Swing 8ths) Things You Didn`t Say ( Robert Cordrey, April 2016) you were a dark horse on a good day a black sheep on the rest its too late to learn too late to learn I watched you from the barricades ride back into the flames I felt you burn I felt you burn I was painting the rainbow when you shot the waterfall I saw you turn I saw you turn you became a poem the blazing ember of a day so I became the poet of the things you didn`t say my heart was racing reading Dharma Bums I heard you cry I heard you cry from your lockup in Tangier flying too close to the sun I closed your eyes I closed your eyes you became the moon your shadow falls far away that`s how I found the box of the things you didn`t say you became a poem the blazing ember of a day so I became the poet of the things you didn`t say

Americana has become a large tent and captures a lot of good music now days. You are in good company. We enjoyed it! J&B _________________________ Check out our BiaB SoundCloud songs!

Registered: 06/09/16 Posts: 2233 Robertkc Veteran Registered: 06/09/16 Posts: 2233	Bob, Janice & Bud - Many thanks for listening and glad you enjoyed the song! I`ve just had a read on Wikipedia about Americana... not really knowing the term it seems I`ve been listening to the genre for most of my life . Many of my favourite artists are in that bag, and now I get how trying to sound like an Irish folk rock group could fit in there. Robert

One thing is for sure, you have a great ability to create very visual phrases. That's quite a skill you have!

I credit a lifelong reading habit for any lyrical ability... and disguising sources, of course! Robert

I'm just dying to hear them darker, over a slow bluesy accompaniment. Maybe something with a harmonica soloist? You know, the kind of harmonica that gives you "feels"... (_AcBlz2 Slow Blues for example). _________________________ Alyssa - PG Music

Slower & bluesier?... never thought of that, but I like the harp idea & do plan to rerecord the song sometime. Robert

There is something Leonard Cohen like in your lyrics and singing rhythm. A little bit stronger in this one. Now both me and Anne-Marie are huge Cohen fans, so you have our attention ;-) Rob _________________________ We are Rob Meulman and Anne-Marie Bovenkamp from The Netherlands.
