Some kids would probably poke it with a stick before calling the cops :D
This is a very cool strange macabre song. absolutely unique as a piece of art. Great work. Makes me think of the film Stand by me.

Thanks Slimm! Poke with a stick, throw a rock at it, get an RV boat.... lol.

I was wondering if anyone would mention Stand By Me as it did come to mind as I was penning this one. It's a little dark I suppose but not meant to be, it just has that "off" sort of feel to it.

Yes, what can I say, such a hassle but also, you find the hell nowhere an approach for criticism... then the song must be good.

Remains only: Exceptionally good!

Wayne my friend!

This is so surrealisticly cool :-)
That mandolin kinda guitar is gorgeous at around 1.20 ... the whole one is a bit Nick Cave like for me ... dark alt one ...
I know, I wrote many times but this is one of your best bro ... :-)

Danke

Thanks!

This one came together and I was surprised myself by the overall sound and feel of it, a happy accident as my favorite painter Bob Ross would say. I wasn't going to add any vocals at first because it was different sounding and I liked it. I didn't want to mess it up by adding vocals.

Alt/rock but no genre here. That Nick Cave is such a bad seed. sorry.lol

Thanks Paul!

An interesting subject matter for a song I thought.

Hey, check out this hour long lecture from Gresham College that a professor, Carolin Roberts, gave about the science that happens when a body is found in a river. She is a specialist, it's pretty interesting.

I watch a lot of lectures from universities all over the world about interesting topics, mostly scientific. Weird subject matters can inspire interesting songs.
