Here's a link to a song of mine, in case you're courious about the music of one of your fellow Frank Black fans. It's called "Let's Change the World". It's around 4.5 MB.

If you're not, don't download it and sorry for wasting your time.

Hey Cartland (Ivar). I enjoyed that little song. The vocals are sweet even though they falter a bit - they reminded me of Bonnie Prince Billy (Will Oldham). Are you familiar with him? http://www.palacerecords.com/

Good luck! I look forward to hearing your other work.

Thanks very much apl4eris. I don't really care for vocal perfection, I tend to focus on the feeling conveyed by the performance. I record using a small tape 4 track machine, usually only one take for each instrument. The writing and recording of this song took me only an hour, and I think that by working this fast I capture the feel and atmosphere of the creative moment.

I have of course heard of Bonnie Prince Billy, although I'm not familiar enough with his work. That's something I'm planning to change in the near future.

Thanks again,
Ivar

I too enjoyed "Lets change the world". I'm listening to it now, for the second time. Cool stuff.

Hey, this is pretty good.

Reminds me of the once great Dyniss.

Yeah, this Dyniss fella seems to be rather good, although I only managed to download one song because the data stream from his site is really really slow.

I took her on a simple trip
To see her husband's family
And on the way upon her hip
Was laid my head down gently
All due respect was meant and all
The winds were in agreement
That this was answering the call
Of awkward and true feeling

A fireman here husband was
And so to give him duty
I duly tried to light a fire
Upon his rightful booty

But beauty was my treasure then
As through the hills I drove her
And taught her that another man
Could have made love to her

Tu-tu tu-tu tu-tu-tu-tu
Tu-tu tu-tu tu-tu-tu-tu
Tu-tu tu-tu tu-tu-tu-tu

Strange is good if it is kept
A secret with the "lovers"
Who love there mates and love themselves
And need the love of others

Through the window I could see
The fields and clouds all passing
As in the passanger position
Eleanor was thrashing

I stopped the car we got a beer
And then eased down the road
A little guilt, and some guilt spilt
And added to our load



I will show you fear in a handful of dust
