It is what it is. (Mrs. O'Neil would like it known that this song is NOT about her!) I had the guitar riff written and the words "why don't we do it with the light on" popped into my brain and just seemed to fit perfectly.

This was the fourth set of words I came up with for this tune. But hey, persistance pays off, at least I hope it does. Another silly love song for my Leigh. I wrote the music on my Tacoma DR20 acoustic guitar tuned to an open D major.

I responded "I'm so over socal." I had already recorded the basic tracks (drums, guitar, bass) for the song, and all of a sudden, the melody for so over socal popped into my head. Over a couple of hours, I hashed out the lyrics and the song was written. I wrote the music on my Tacoma DR-20 acoustic guitar tuned to an open G chord. The working title for the song before the lyrics were written was titled "G-Chordin' Liddy." Get it? If not, look up the Watergate scandal on Wikipedia.

Uh.... yeah, that song went into the recycle bin of my brain. Years later I retrieved the chorus and wrote new lyrics for it. Now it's a love song to my Leigh. Enjoy.

I recorded the basic tracks in February 2008, but didn't write the lyrics until June 2008. I kept drawing a blank, until one night a friend of mine and Leigh's was complaining that he always ends up "in the friend zone" with the ladies. Well, I've certainly had my share of "friend zone" experiences, and it's, well, read on.

Just lyin' there, watching the minutes, half hours, hours go by knowing I have to be up at 5am to go to work. Frustration sets in, followed by increasing anxiety. I believe I've accurately depicted one of my trecherous boughts with this affliction (how's that for mellodramatic!). I was going for a creepy, Edgar Allen Poe kinda vibe here.

Man up!!

It was kind of a "Butterfly Kisses" type song about a father's love for his newborn child. I made a recording of it, but ultimately found it too corny to show anyone. Fast forward to 2008, I decided I still liked the chorus to the song, so I wrote new verses about being a part-time dad wishing to be a full-time dad.

I was sitting down at the piano getting ready to start tracking "Captivated" when I hit a couple of chords on the Kurzweil keyboard and thought "Oooh, now there's a mood!" One thing led to another, and within 72 hours this tune was finished! It's one of those "everything but the kitchen sink" numbers. I had much fun writing and recording it! So much fun I forgot to write lyrics. http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/play.php?mode=song_hifi&band_id=6378&song_id=28775 http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/comment.php?mode=view_comments&type=song&band_id=6378&song_id=28775&sn=The_Brainstorm&template=songcomment.tpl Wed, 07 Jan 2009 00:51:28 GMT http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/play.php?mode=song_hifi&band_id=6378&song_id=28776
OVERVIEW: I wrote, recorded and mixed this song on September 5th, 2008, with full intent for it to be the CD closer. I felt that since I'd really "dissed" SoCal in the CD opener "So Over SoCal", I ought to take a more sympathetic view of the place I lived in for 28 years. I wrote the music with my Tacoma Dr-20 acoustic guitar tuned to an open G chord.
