A Challenge

My guitar playing level has been at the same level for a while now. So, I've decided to 'challenge' myself and learn a new song , in order to proceed to the next stage. I'm starting off with this 1 minute long (short) piece from Joe Sat's 4th Album, The Extremist called Tears in the Rain. While hearing it on loop , I remember wishing it was longer, but today I'm realizing the one minute duration is an intricate aspect of it's beauty :) I will post my version in a week's time..

The Lost Chance

This morning I was feeling a little under the weather due to nostalgia. So I took out my guitar and strummed around for a while. I liked the random nature of the sound. This is based on just 10 minutes of playing. It is a little patchy in places and hastily mixed but overall I'm quite happy with it. Please let me know what you think. It's called the 'Lost Chance'. It's basically about when you see an opportunity and are so engaged in considering it, that it passes you by , before you notice.

I'm Back. Again.

I wake up everyday,
Expecting to find myself,
Back where I began,
Amidst ruined remains.
My efforts in vain,
Tomorrow is the future of my past
It's happened before , it'll happen again.

Because your force is too strong and
I've been here too long,
to hope for change,
Predestined , It has been
For me to stay.
You could say,
I'm a satellite,
Orbiting you for eternity.

Quite Easily Done Q.E.D

Recovered from the Diary of Anon.

After a lifetime of labor, I seem to have arrived
at a set of elegant N-variable equations,
that ascertain mathematically, moral Right vs. Wrong.
The profound consequences, my mind postulates.
No more room for greed, envy, and other human vices
in the cold calculating eyes of Justice, now armed with a sniper
Moral grayness annihilated by clinical precision
But as I count the number of independent equations.
my train of thoughts come to a crashing halt,
N-1... N-1.. N-1.
Pig-headed, I have been.
I have not a solution, merely a relation.
The grayness prevails.

PS: This was Anon's last entry before his mysterious disappearance in 305 A.D.

T.H.O.Z.A.N.S Theme

I was having a bad headache. I should have slept. But instead , a friend and I came up with this. I feel better cause the headache has been shared with the world. T.H.O.Z.A.N.S is , you guessed it, a Tamil Acoustic Cover of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.So take your seats, pop in an extra-strong Panadol and get ready to hear a classic tune get ruined by 2 blokes :)
