Waste

Kat posted this song on YouTube in 2008. For some reason, I missed it until now, but I do remember hearing her work this out on the piano. It is a great song! If you enjoy it, please let her know by posting a comment on YouTube!

Waste by Kat Lynn

Totally 80s, but Without Leg Warmers

Two bands have been in heavy rotation for me this weekend: Talking Heads and Tears for Fears. My head may be stuck in 1987, but these bands still sound fresh to me. Even with heavy synthesizers, bombastic drums and not-so-distorted guitars, the music shines!

Music Development

Chris and I did get time to work on new music this evening. We are continuing our recent method of recording short pieces of music at a matched tempo to assemble and arrange it later. However, this time, we recorded all the pieces using FourTrack on my iPhone. The results were more than acceptable for writing purposes. We are looking forward to recording more music this way as it is a very relaxed way to write and document our work.

Looking Forward to Tomorrow

Chris and I are planning to get together again tomorrow night to work on music, and I am really looking forward to it. The last time we were together, we started developing an idea that I had sent along to him earlier this month. Hopefully, we can continue to work on this piece, or maybe something new will appear.

Last month, Chris and I talked about starting to learn cover songs to do a few acoustic duet shows this summer, and we should work on this tomorrow as well. We haven’t selected songs yet, but we should decide on at least two or three to learn.

Van: The Snow (Slight Return)

Rear View Mirror with Snow

This is for the Cinema fans out there…

Sung to the tune of “Ann: The Rain (Reprise)” by Cinema:

The snow is falling again;
So is the temp outside my car.
The heat is running, and this traffic seems like it will never end.
I hope this heap doesn’t fall apart.
