Have to lie to survive (original)
This turned out pretty good, except its a very cynical song. I
hosted it on soundclick cause i happened to upload there first.
There's also an R rated line in it. This is getting to be a real time
consuming hobby  Maybe tomorrow i relax in the pub
a while  hope ya enjoy

Well done, Tom! Very cool groove- a couple suggestions, if I may:
1) the transition from the chorus back to the verse is somewhat jarring, rhythm-wise. I think it's just a matter of stretching the chorus out one more beat
2) I think some harmony in the chorus would be great.
I think this may be your best work yet- you've come a long way in the past year! Keep it up!

You picked up on that cshude, good ear! so i confess, sometimes if
i plan on a recurring rythem track, instead of playing it 10 times
how many times it repeated) i play it once and use the repeat
option. I looked for the best possible end and start here. Its only
some originals i do this, and never covers...and thanks

Great song Tom, very well sung and played. I'm even more cynical because I don't think you HAVE to lie to survive, it's just that everybody does because it's easier ...but then you said that too!!
When all else fails, read the instructions.

Nice job Tom, great vocal and neat playing, nothing wrong with the cynical aspect either, the lyrics ring true, some people think that's a good way to live, describes many a Politician.

NIce one Tom,
Yes, a bit darkside on the lyric. But done well, and like AT says, continues to get better.

I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's,
And his hair was perfect.
