Peter's Song of the Week Club!

6/18/03

I'm Incredible

Peter's Comments:
The project for this week: write a big, bombastic Oasis song. The result: what Oasis would sound like if they were flamingly gay. Or something. I dunno how it happened, but there it is. Not a good thing, not a bad thing, but just kind of there.

A lot of things went right on this one. My computer held up under the stack of thirty-odd tracks. I wrote pretty stupid lyrics (from an appropriately bombastic title) and delivered them like they actually meant something. I think I finally got electric guitars to be my friend. Sort of.

So basically this ended up being the 'big arena rock' thing I was trying to do with (say) "Who Could Blame You," done with a moderate amount of success. I mean, for being done by a rank amateur with $300 of recording equipment, a computer, and a few nights' work.
