Hey! Don't know if you've already chosen a title or not, but if not, here's what I'm putting forward for whatever wonderful hat it is you're going to stir all those juicy titles in. :)
This is song is hilarious and is an example of how someone getting caught up in a relationship with a person who just doestn't understand you or treat you with respect that you just want to end the relationship right then and there! :) This song expreses how she feels at that moment when she questions why got in the relationship in the first place in a funny way, explaining to him that she might as well have dumped herself in the river or never have kissed him in the first place!
Abby, you have always been one of the very most talented and unique people I know. ...Even though I think I haven't seen you since you were ... maybe 9 years old? You were a really cool kid.
I like it. A lot. It makes me happier than I've been all day. Now, I think it might do better with some more parts to hold it in place, the transitions aren't solid enough in just guitar, the parts seem alien to one another but with some overarching it might gel more.
I've been working on an insane research paper on Kenneth Burke all day, so my title suggestion comes from one of his theories: "Rotten With Perfection"
It's cool to see that you're back and, 'loved the song. It's also cool to hear ya talk so don't stop. Hmmmm........SFAH...........how 'bout " Drivin Through A Blzzard" ( both emotionally and actually" )
Abby, not possible to 'unneed' you. (Sorry about the double negative, gotta work from the song here.) Tell us about these two guitars, you liked the old one so much.
I think it's time to go comercial. I mean you should put this stuff out there for people to buy, Like me. I don't know if you play live anywhere? Do you?
Geez I loved that, I am also glad I never un-subbed. I'm not much in the way of musical critiscism but the fact that I did listen with headphones twice should be enough to convince you that I'm not just being positive when I say I liked it a lot.
i normally like your stuff,,,this is a little off the wall for me, along the lines of what mysterious c was getting at....not a huge fan of this one abby
I posted my comment before I heard you were doing another song drawing. My request is that you do a song by the name of: abstinence makes fondling harder
Not as focused as some of your songs but nice emotionally honest song. I have to say that I prefer this to all that damn corporate pre-fab music on the airwaves today. It´s also nice to see someone that seems to have the same passion I have for making imperfect music.
you are a really good song writer. I love the guitar on the song, I like what you did out of the main riff, i think it all fit together very well - you know what you are doing.
SFAH: this isn't a title but a topic --> song about war written from the view of a soldier
I think the guitar riff is way to similar to Steve Miller's Swingtown to call it "original" but a new song doesn't have to be completely original to be good. I like it.
@MysteriousC@MysteriousC The song is about getting dumped, which maybe I subconciously relate to emotional murder!
the second verse: "un hold me now, un mold me now, I will break up, splatter all over your walls right now" is meant as a pottery metaphor. The clay breaks or splatters. I've felt like my partner's clay in relationships in the past.
I like this rather a lot. Like, enough to play it a bunch of times. To the point where I inadvertently memorized the second (0:39) at which the actual song begins.
Given my lack of qualifications, it would probably be better to leave unqualified praise than to attempt constructive criticism. But hey, this is the internet!
This song left me emotionally con-fused: an alternation among and an amalgamation of sad, angry, and resigned. Was that intentional?
Oh great ideal I go to unkiss You and end up kissing you again, is this some planned out trap that I cant get out of like obease Elvis stuck in a small trailer bathroom ? Song title "Travis sounds like the chipmunks"
First of all, Your welcome. It always puts a smile on my face when I hear some thing new from you. Also, Yay! A new song from a hat. Title "Here's To You"
For some reason, it reminds me Collective Soul, the great band of the 90s... :)
Besides that, a great song!! As always say, those litlle imperfections in her playing make these songs to be so good.
Nice to get some songs from you from time to time, Abby! Keep up uploading!!
