to wormsweater -- sorry, no, I think I liked the song, even though longish (sometimes it helps to set a mood), I just couldn't hear it well enough. I've always been able to (if I can't hear sufficiently) download the thing & crank the volume, but for some reason this time it didn't work...

Chin Music intones: Caravan Ray — Sounds like Brian Wilson on a good day, and this track would make a perfect segue with Sloop John B. Daddybop — Musically clever; lyrically thin, I’m afraid. Keep boppin’. Tam Lin Music — Leonard Cohenish, nice character-driven tale. “How to make her sad...

Show tune?

Dave sez: "JAK :- After reading your lyrics for Proud! if your song isn't a showtune, I will be sad." --prepare for sadness. It's more pitched towards TAMI Show, we think. Chin Music also believes we missed our target, musically, and sheer enthusiasm might not have saved the day... Also sw...
