After about a month of writer's block,I had a dream about a week ago...whereby I wrote this music,performed it and recorded it-all in my state of subconsciousness,& when I awoke,I immediately went to my computer and started laying down what I could remember.
Normally,this would be a wonderful thing to have happened-especially after such a long siege of impotence(so to speak),but the problem was and still is...that I had dreamed that I had the voice of the lead singer of the Stone Roses(
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D2qcbu26gs )..so of course,the song sounded great in he dream,but it went to sh*t as soon as reality hit and I tried to sing.
This whole piece is entirely off the cuff-but I hate it and all the inspiration I had from the dream was squandered by my lackluster vocals.My voice is so nasally and pinched and there's always a 50/50 chance that my vocals will be anywhere from tolerable to utterly horrific and embarrassing.
The theme of the song,was that whether or not one is in a relationship and in love,or alone and dreaming of it,love impacts us all in one form or another.I just soon scrap it all,or just transform it into a instrumental of some sort.
I don't know man....I really lost something as a musician,as I really feel like I have run out and gone empty altogether.
