Session Date: May 2nd 2009; a Tuesday-night in April
Recording Gear:Zoom H4 digital fourtrack, Audacity
Music Gear:Farida D-10E steelstring; Ibanez electric guitar Log: I have some serious inhibitions concerning musical creativity. To get me started once again I recorded this toss-off song. The other mp3 is more than a full minute of fragments of two songs we're working on with my new band, The Lost Ingredients. The band might not survive very long, which makes the material even rarer. The songs are in an embryonic phase.
Lyrics:Said I'm sorry that I even exist / You're the golden goal I shouldn't have missed / I'm so worried that I might be a mouse / I have left behind those wonderful vows / I am scared of the sun / I can hardly be one / I'm intelligent or so it appears / I'm a giant in an ocean of fears / Pick your number and be gone for a week / For the next eleven years I won't speak / I'm so sober anew / Oh, October sun do / Shine on
Log: Recorded on my new Zoom H4 digital fourtrack. Edited in Audacity.
Lyrics:
[Without A Warning] Seasons change / Without a warning / They return / Attacking your mind / Golden cage / For terrible darling / I must walk / 'Till I'm in a coma / I must work / Until I'm defied / I must talk / Until I am / Swept away by the Final Day [When You Move Into The Void] I / Am looking for ways to get hold of / The time that expires when you / Move into the void / And you leave me paranoid / High above the skies / Counting the days while I'm looking for ways to ignore you / 'Cause I ain't true / Terrible days in which voices are raised in the morning / And I can't get out / Rolling away with the prizes they pay in the morning / Just to be alive / I cannot say / I cannot say who I am now / But Im alive [Painfully Missing From the Floor] She said there was no / Other way to take it / Bad news from hell / She could take it well / She was planning to leave anyway / And I watched her big head / Her beautiful big head / And I still heard what she'd said / When she was finally gone / And I had to check on her work / She'd / Been a pin-up / But now she was / Painfully / Missing from the / Floor [Won't You Tell Me Your Name] Tomorrow / I'm gonna be a better man /My sorrows / Are gonna have to face my plan / I'm broken / I'm shattered and I'm left behind / I will need some time to heal / This is how I'm gonna feel / Ain't it right to wait for the morning / I'm gonna make a last appeal / Fly to the ceiling of the moon / This is how I'm gonna... / Hey, I ain't gonna climb my way up to the heavens / You have to let me in for your own sake / Everything I make is tumbling down / I ain't never gonna wear no crown / You gotta believe me / I gotta believe you / Wow, and I know your life and truth / Won't you tell me your name?

I don't like dogs. I do love cats, especially my own cat, Nino (although the cat regards itself more as being my wife's cat..).
I'm Meite U, a Dutch singer-songwriter. I used to blog my recording sessions here. This blog is more or less dead since all mp3 links died. I keep it up as an archive. My new blog, which also contains a link to all mp3's that used to be here, can be found on http://lostingredients.blogspot.com.
