Liner Notes

#blues #acousticblues #collab #collaboration #meta #fawm

I saw Phylo's open call to demo and took the opportunity to do a quick guy with guitar acoustic blues (on a single mic) take. Thanks!

Lyrics

V
Well, the calendar flips, February rolls around
I'm locked in my studio, while no one's around
Fourteen songs to write, but my brain’s on the fritz
Every line feels like, this tune might be it

CH
Got the low down dirty FAWM blues
Locked away, I hang with my muse
My baby’s callin’, but I ain't coming through
I got the low down, dirty FAWM blue

V
I feel day five come and coffee's runnin' dry
I’m scribblin’ on napkins, it's makin' me cry
Every chord feels wrong, every rhyme is a mess
Drowning in the pressure, nothing but FAWM stress

CH
Got the low down dirty FAWM blues
Locked away, I hang with my muse
My baby’s callin’, but I ain't coming through
I got the low down, dirty FAWM blues

BR

The clock keeps on tickin', the days start to blur
I’m strummin’ my guitar while thinkin' of her
She leaves food at the door, like I’m some kinda ghost
I ain’t seen my baby since that Super Bowl post!

V
By the twenty-seventh day I’m hangin' by a thread
Got a pile of rough drafts and a pain in my head
The melodies may be limp and the words barely rhyme
But I pray to my muse, just this one last time

CH
Still got the low down dirty FAWM blues
But her lovin’ pulls me back from that ruse
February's over, no more solitude
She’s my forever, no more FAWM time blues

OUTRO (spoken)
Fourteen songs done
Now I need now some lovin'
We should take a little rest, now
'Cause Fifty Ninety ain't a-comin'

Who doesn't love a good famw meta song? The low down dirty rhyme on blues - muse is a perfect fit on the theme. I would say the part about scribblin on napkins or maybe the pain in my head where my favorites, but so many great gems throughout. The approach of the outro was nice as well.

I saw the lyrics with the call for collab and thought maybe I'd give it a go if nobody else does. I'm glad I didn't, this version made me bob by head and clap my hands, there's no way I would have done anything anywhere this good. 👍
