Had a busy end of the year that has carried into 2022. It did get me thinking about time, life, longevity and other similar subjects. Put together a simple song on that topic. Although I've had BIAB for over a year now, I'm still very much a novice and usually use BIAB for my drum and bass tracks. This one is a much simpler piece with no BIAB. Just me a guitar and a simple drum machine. Recorded and mixed in Studio one. Thanks for listening Here's "Live Forever"https://soundcloud.com/captainmoto/live-forever-1?si=43ead77f3792463f92fc12ccd0176671&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharingIf I was to live forever And my dreams would never die Would I keep on dreaming And would I be satisfied If I was to live forever Wonder where I'd be Would I be in heaven Would you be next to me If I lived forever And you where not with me If I had to live without you There'd be no future left to see ~Guitar~ If I was to live forever And all my dreams would never die Would I keep on yearning How could I keep my passion alive ~Guitar~ End

Yeah,
eternity is a long time.
Immortality is a weird concept.
Languid, almost drug induced coma music...Works.

Very cool mood to this piece, and the stripped down approach works well I think.
Good vocal and guitar work. Lead reminds me of Jorma Kaukonen in places, I dig it!

Captain,
That slow moping rhythm/backtrack is the perfect vehicle for the subject matter!
Excellent vocals and an excellent job with the instrumental performances!
Thanks, Torrey

Argh... "languid", "dark" and "moody" are already used to describe the vocals, and I'm all out of adjectives. I like the "ticking" effect of the drum. The acoustic and electric guitars work really nicely here. Some songs work well with less, and this is one of them. Cool!

Such a simple track but so, so effective! Good voc and the backing was perfect to frame the lyric. Well done!

Captain,
Very original and tastefully done tune. A perfect reminder that songs do not have to be instrumentally overcomplex (my illness) to be good. Liked it! Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Hey, Captain. This is a really cool feel. It's what I call heroine-speed dirge. Cool idea using a dirge feel for Lice Forever. Clever. You know I'm a big fan of all your songs. Your playing is always so appropriate, and your vocal always brings out the best in a song. Great tone on that guitar.

Thanks, Torrey Thanks you sir, I usually try to make the instruments compliment the vocals....I did say try:) Argh... "languid", "dark" and "moody" are already used to describe the vocals, and I'm all out of adjectives. I like the "ticking" effect of the drum. The acoustic and electric guitars work really nicely here. Some songs work well with less, and this is one of them. Cool! Thanks David, That constant timing was purposeful, glad you picked up on that. Such a simple track but so, so effective! Good voc and the backing was perfect to frame the lyric. Well done! Thanks, Most of my stuff is fairly simple, sometimes it works.

Misha. Misha, If your illness is complexity in your music, then don't take the cure, you are unique..........that's important.

Hey Marty, Thanks for dropping in, I can always use a few fans smile " heroine-speed dirge " good one! The idea here was....living forever could be quite a depressing thing because you'd see everyone you care about eventually die as you live on. Deep Deep Thoughts wink
