Lateralus' songs.

Just a tip in response to that last video: I dont know if you normally do it but try just fingerpicking/strumming. Not just for more control of the sound but it'll make it warmer and quieter so your vocals will appear louder.

Very good though, I enjoyed it.

Wow, that song was touching. I can totally relate to it, I went through the same thing. Except my family moved to a different town rather than a different country.

Aww thank you! It's really nice to know that someone can relate.

Amy is probably one of my favorite songs now. I would payfor and download even this not-so- hot recording, cause the song's just that good. It's simple, but one of those things that really hits you in your core. I agree with vegangelica that, if i hadn't been told, i wouldn't know it was about a girl who had commited suicide...but i think maybe it's more of a tribute to her life than to her death. Excellent job. i wish i could hear it as the band plays it.

If guitar is your worst instrument, then by golly i want to hear something youre really really good at! more more more more more!

I haven't really posted any of my original songs on here for a very long time, looking back on the ones I have posted they are so lame and old! Anyway, here is a random tidbit/song type music thing that I recorded very roughly, haphazardly and quickly with someone I met on SoundCloud. The lyrics were pretty much written as I sang them, they are pretty simple. I'm not really sure what to do with this song now... but let me know what you think!

It's called 'Atlas.'

The lyrics:

Breathe out, breathe in
Watch the world slowly spin
These stars look different here
Watch the sky disappear
Disappear

Atlas lines, ocean walls
Watch the moon as it slowly falls
Slowly fall

A pleasantly mellow song, Lateralus. It had a shoegazy feel that I liked.

My favorite part of the song was your ethereal singing: pretty, light, and airy. I felt the lyrics matched both your vocals and the tune very well.
