The Naked Song
Getting happy with this one.
It's basically a bass riff. Before I finished writing the song, it was mainly on one string, either low E or A. The whole thing.
One day I said I just gotta finish this. What it lacked was a chorus and I was fine with that also being a bassline. But it's chords instead. Same ol chords, yet they fit just right.
There's chords also on the bridge. The bridge lyric refers to M. & m. coming home one day with lice, right when I was feverishly trying to record Last Train for the Songstuff Christmas contest, on a deadline. That really threw me off.
I am trying to do something w/ the right hand to pick up more sound during the last verse one-string-bassline. I play always w/ a pick, but by mistake sometimes the right hand fingers pick up "grace notes" strumming of the strings. Had lotsa these kind of accidents playing drums and esp. keyboards! Always grateful for them. I think progress and nuance gets born and developed in such a way.
