This post is about Notes Of A Tunesmith

Writtin’ music and performing is an interesting thing… that I love to do.

Today, a lady came and had me take money she offered. She said there was too much fighting. Maybe music can substitute?

It’s weird how that works.

The other day a youth brought me a Rita’s waterice. A few days before that the owner of “The World’s Largest Pizza” gave me a slice for playing my guitar.

The Music Seen [MP3 Demo]

LYRICS
Thinking of you
On this hot summer night
Wondering if
You just might….

Going down to Downey’s
Plenty of players there
With the spirit to experiment
What sound can be found?

Thinking of you
On this hot summer night
Wondering if
You just might….

Take some singers to Ringers
Bring more to the dance floor
Give a look that’s meant
To ask if there’s more

Thinking of you
On this hot summer night
Wondering if
You’ll improve my sight
Catch a glimpse
Through the crowd
We’ll sing our song
We’ll sing it loud
With astral dancing
Made for romancing
Embrace the space
While we have the chance

The story is true, though the names have been changed to protect the guilty. I wrote to my lawyer, “Radical change happened in my life… but, I’m still a writer… and would appreciate any help with editing that my friends may offer. It’s my plan to explain to you what has happened over the past four years.”

My lawyer responded, “DON’T DO IT. YOU HAVE BEEN FORWARNED!!!!”

In –The End
by Daniel Brouse

There are no words to say
That’ll ever be O.K.
A host of barristers will complain
Try to claim that I’m insane
They’ll say, “Put no words into play.”
That’d be A-ok
Except…
I’ve something to say

After all,
How long will I have the chance to voice my choice
How long can I stand behind my stance
How long before I meet my maker
Then,
Only to be a liar, poser or faker?

The child in me
Gives my mind an eye
And, I…
Am able to see

The child in me
Gives my mind an eye
And, I…
Am able to see
There are no words to say
No music to play
Nothing… that’ll convey…
What you’ve do to me

Let the light shine in
Into your heart
Happiness your mistress
Let the light shine on
Onto your soul
For you can’t outlast your past
In “–The End”
You’re all you were

Rise my child
Your seat is saved here in the end
And, Lord knows
You’ll need more than just a friend
Such a bright
Such a bright and sunny day
On the wing

Round and round
Carousel clown
Seek your ride today
Seek your ride
Come inside
Seek your ride today
Seek your ride on the wing
For today
Seek your ride on the wing
For today

Walk alone through the darkness
See the light in her face
Distant memories that we carry
Oh, has this all been a waste?

I mean to cover miles
I’ve walked for many days
Tending to the fire, playing in the rain

See through lies in all their eyes
You’ll never trust again
If it weren’t for one lost soldier
They’d be a hundred of them dead

Delay your heart and double cross it
All is fair and people stare
So, wear shades in the sun

bookmark_borderOne Of These Days, To The Moon?

LYRICS For: It makes more sense to me to go to the moon

Should we bomb Afghanistan?
It makes more sense to me to go to the moon

Should we bomb Iraq?
It makes more sense to me to go to the moon

Should we bomb Vietnam
Again, and, again…?
It makes more sense to me to go to the moon

Should we drop nukes on Japan
On the innocent… the children?
It makes more sense to me to go to the moon

Ah, ha,
NASA

ps And, none too soon.

lyrics
If it weren’t for my skin
Holding me in
I would get out
And spill about

The receptical for my soul
Grows older by the minute
Yet, the soul doesn’t age
Keeps me young at heart
The soul doing its part
The body as its stage
Together a conduit
Unveil, reveal and dole
The life I’m living
The life I”m giving

The life I’ve been given
Is a gift from heaven
From the day of my birth
And, all my time on Earth
Life is precious
Living… delicious

If it weren’t for my skin
Holding me in
I would get out
And spill about

About The Soundtracks
These recordings were made in Atlantic City, Ocean City and Wildwood using a Roland Boss Br-600. The two hardest parts of engineering the recordings were:
1) wind protection. The recordings of the ocean were difficult to shield the microphones from wind noise. There was a constant breeze at each location. Several attempts had to be trashed. Eventually, I figured out that I had to leave the recorder in its case in order to protect the on-board condenser mic’s.
2) moving. The recordings on the boardwalk were made while I walked. Holding the recorder, moving and trying to keep up with tram-car were all challenges.

The most nerve racking was making the recording in the casino… as I’m not sure whether you are allowed to record in a casino?
