talking to myself (demo)

By 0F on August 16, 2024 10:24 am

Little synthpop/vaporwave kind of song I'm working on. I often sing random things to myself when I'm at home alone, but this time I figured I should try to actually record it.. I'm glad I did, it's got potential!

Also, my dad played guitar on it! His solo is the really nice mellow part just before the chorus. The brighter sounding guitar is me, including a quote of a Dire Straits lick big_smile

Obviously it's a pretty early demo, the vocals are a bit sketchy, especially in the middle section. But it's getting there!

Lyrics:

(chorus)

I'm talking to myself
woah oh
About anything at all
I'm talking to myself
woah oh
You don't know a thing about it

(verse)

It's 3am
It's me time again
I'm drunk and stumbling round the house

I'm all alone
And I'm singing again
Making it up as I go along

Open the door
Delivery yeah
Six pack pizza medicine

Now I'm inspired
Song in my head
One two three four press record

(chorus)

I'm talking to myself
woah oh
About anything at all
I'm talking to myself
woah oh
You don't know a thing about it

If you came home right now
I'd probably be embarrassed
I can't sing with you around
I'm talking to myself

(middle section)
I am getting better
At these vocal tracks
???
Maybe
I will show you someday
But until then
Until then I'll hide it from you
Oh oh oh yeah

(chorus)

I'm talking to myself
woah oh
About anything at all
I'm talking to myself
woah oh
You don't know a thing about it

If you came home right now
I'd probably be embarrassed
I can't sing with you around
I'm talking to myself

Ha yeah, guitar was my first instrument. Singing, not so much lol. But I have my moments.
