Big News is actually brilliant. Best I've heard you do, definitely.
Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...

Wow, I'm glad you guys liked that one :D

I've got two more for the moment, an old one and a new one.

Spaced - A song I wrote after listening to way too much Guided By Voices. I like the melody on this one.

Untitled 0.01 - A REALLY old song by my old band, where I played bass. We never recorded anything, and I only got this because some dude recorded us practicing (hence, no singer)

I've got a few ideas for some more stuff, but I hurt my left hand at work...which sucks. Ah well, there's always the cartooning I suppose :wag:

I'd totally link to my own songs, but I don't have a big enough arrogance to do that.

What's the point in writing music if no-one gets to listen to it?

Practice to make better music that people will get to listen to.

Much like drawing sketches that no one else will see.

Creativity should always be shared...dunno, seems pointless to me otherwise, but that's probably just me.

In that spirit, ere's another one for yer:

Tin - A song I wrote in about half an hour after figuring out the main melody and stealing a vocal phrase from Idlewild.

I'm pretty proud of this bodged up songlette, and should a day come where I actually get up the nerve to play these infront of people, this'll be my first song.

I like that one. I like it a lot. I want to make sweet love to it under a fading sunset, then leave it with a kiss and a calling card with no number.

Yea, that is a very good song. Like, I could listen to it repeatedly.

This dude is good. If only he was beautiful enough to impress Simon Cowell.

Tin is an excellent song. Quite possibly my favourite of your work so far.
