[Sainthood Launch]

Hey everyone,

I've been posting my demos and works in progress in the songwriting critique section over the last few months. I'm gearing up to release the first single, "L.I.V.I.N.G." in March. I launched the currently minimal Facebook page. I'd love to keep everyone in the loop. I'll leave a demo or two below just in case you're not on the songwriting forum and want to have an idea what you're "liking."

[Sainthood - Odds And Ends (Bob Dylan Cover)]

Hey yall, I slapped together a cover of the Basement Tapes opening number. I tried to just go with my gut and dress up the song my way. Kind of turned out like a Beatles song with the bass. Let me know what y'all think.

I stand in awe and I shake my face
You break your promise all over the place
You promised to love me but what do I see ?
Just you comin' in and spillin' juice over me
Odds and ends, odds and ends 
Lost time is not found again.

Now you take your file and you bend my head
I never can remember anything that you said
You promised to love me, but what do I know ?
You're spillin' juice on me like you got some place to go
Odds and ends, odds and ends 
Lost time is not found again.

Now I've had enough, my box is clean
You know what I'm sayin' and you know what I mean
From now on you'd best get on some-one else
While you're doin' it, keep that juice to yourself
Odds and ends, odds and ends 
Lost time is not found again.

[I Love You, But I Don't Know What To Say (Ryan Adams Cover)]

[Sainthood Says Hello!]

Hi and welcome!

Yeah, very funny...as long as you don't have to make your first live performance ever. In about 2 weeks. I'm crawling out of my skin here!

Making people happy? Oh, yeah! Thats great!

Nice having you around!

Oh don't worry! Grit your teeth, close your eyes and sing. It'll be over before you even know it. Every performance is always over too soon.
