One More...Then I'm Done


This unfortunately named one off band is comprised of artists who have all lost their fathers in tragic ways and have decided to remember them through music...thus their albums title. It is a collection of slow classic guitar and piano pieces with a 70s folk and country feel. (This is honestly what first came to mind when the pieces came together.)

No, no Widge and I agree that this is totally an American Rock band (think 3 doors down or nickleback). The sort that start out with slow melodic songs - generally very pretty sounding, and then smash in with heavy guitars, bass, and drums - typically with a harder singing voice as well.

That is totally what they sound like.

I am detecting sarcasm in this sector, captain.

Anyway, sounds quite interesting - I happen to quite enjoy 70's folk-type music - in fact the other day I was just mentioning that I really need to get more into that.

Which means, clearly, that you guys need to create some.

No, that was quite earnest.

And maybe not so much for making the 70's music under names like Bush Bread :P

Oh, and I have to add that the other day, I was totally writing a song for this band (Do not judge!)

It went a little something like this (but I only got through the chorus and bridge, thank goodness):

I was only 8 years old
Tell me, how was I to know
that life would be comin' down to this.
Oh yeah.
(rock guitar)
If only I had listened
to everything my father ever believed
I'd be a million times the man
I am ...(rock guitar)... right now!
If only I could look into his eyes
and tell him, Yeah dad I believe
In everything you ever did
(rock guitar taking back to that melodic bit)
But I was only 8 years old
and as a kid you just never know
what this life is gonna hold.

And no one ever tells you
that one day you'll lose it all
(build back to rockin')
cuz this world can be so damn cold
(rock guitar)

If only I had listened
to everything my father ever believed
I'd be a million times the man
I am ...(rock guitar)... right now!
If only I could look into his eyes
and tell him, Yeah dad I believe
In everything you ever did.

(back to melodic [with some mild slower rock in the background])
Oh daddy don't you know.
I want to trust
in everything you ever believed.
(and end.)
