Day 12 - Tomorrow Night

Unfortunately a recording for this song will have to wait. It really can't be helped. I need to memorize the lyrics in order to play it. I've given it a shot for a few days now (around 20-30 takes) and just haven't gotten it yet. Hopefully soon. Really, hopefully soon.

It's a poppy number, and it isn't overly complicated. Just a long couple of slides for the main guitar hook that require my eyes to be locked on the fretboard. No glancing at my lyrics sheet for this one.

Lyrics after the jump.

Day 2 - Way You Move

I've kinda always wanted to take a stab at a song like this -- just a straight up alternative sexy dance/pop record. Imagine some funky electric sounds instead of the acoustic guitar, a loud steady drum beat, and a lot of layering, and you'll get the idea.

As always, please pardon the mess-ups. Performing a song live an hour after writing it isn't easy, and I'm constantly looking at my notepad for lyrics help. Usually I'd hope to practice and memorize a song before playing it in front of a crowd, but with this project, that's just not an option. Hope it comes through.
