Liner Notes
Another go at this one, different style
Lyrics
Turn off all the noise
All the girls and boys
Not making any friends
Only one way this thing ends
Turn off all the games
The rules are all the same
Chasing through the rain
Just to feel the hurt and pain again
Turn off all the pride
I’m tired of pretending
Chasing hollow dreams
I know they’re never ending
Turn off all the noise
All the girls and boys
Not making any friends
Only one way this thing ends

Dude! Did you really crank out two fantastic songs in the hour??? I wouldn't want to have to choose one over the other -- they're both fantastic. "Turn off all the pride/I’m tired of pretending" really resonated with me. Great work.

Ah, because I'm listening from top down, I get to hear the second song first. I love that fuzzy guitar, particularly the way it sits in the back and lets the acoustic do the hard work. This has a cool energy and I really like your vocal. Great skirmishing!

Two for one. Impressive. The background hiss is maybe a bit too loud in the mix. Cool concept, but it needs to accentuate, not overwhelm.

Wow, you are a fast worker, a two in one skirmish! Kudos. This takes the prompt to a more metaphorical space, which also works well. Kudos!

Enjoyed the background hiss. Nice touch. You can hear the frustration. Cool lyric. Nice work.
