Michael's Texas Embrace

I recorded a new version of a song that's two years old, that no one has ever heard.

About two years ago Maggie went off to a conference for school and left me at home with the dog...and a terrible sickness. I didn't go to work. I could barely speak. I laid in the living room and watched asian movies and anime and talked to the dog and took lots and lots and lots of medicine and drank waaaay to much tea with honey in it. I think I put theraflu in the tea, in fact. At some point I became fascinated with my froggy, croaky voice, and recorded a song on the fly. The song is the song I'm posting here, and I don't think I changed it that much.

So, this song doesn't make much sense. It's weird, but not really funny. Since I was sick, and drugged, and sort of one-taked the words, I guess it's just whatever the heck it is. But for some reason, I have thought about this dumb-ass song a number of times these past two years, so I decided to record it.

The Flames

I thought I was trying something different with the production, trying to be more sparse. I don't know think it ended up that way, but the bass is thumpier, and the tambourine is more prominent, so I guess that's something. I also reveled in the use of my analog gear, so filters and ring mods and analog delay abounds. I'm not too sure about the mix; I might redo the whole thing sometime. But here's what I gots so far, yos.

Lyrics!

Um, yes.
