Shinin' Through - Grunge Song

[jonlint]

Hi all,

Have not written anything for a while. Got inspired today and wrote this grunge song - heavy AIC influence. Feedback most welcome:

SHININ’ THROUGH
(Words by Jonathan Linton, Music by Jonathan Linton)

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

You burst on scene, yeah
Teethy grin with a gleam
You kept the truth in the dark
Gifts for when you disembark

But, you project
Incompetence
And you protect
Providence
In the light
It comes into view
With the spotlight, shinin’ through

Its heads you win and tails I loose
I see what you’re tryin’ to do, yeah
But the spotlight, shines on you
With invisible light, shinin’ through

Secret missions you know
With your bitch in tow
And nothing yet to show
Man such an, impressive combo

But, you project
Nepotism
And you reject
Criticism
In the light
It comes into view
With the spotlight, shinin’ through

Its heads you win and tails I loose
I see what you’re tryin’ to do, yeah
But the spotlight, shines on you
With invisible light, shinin’ through

SOLO

Its heads you win and tails I loose
I see what you’re tryin’ to do, yeah
But the spotlight, shines on you
With invisible light, shinin’ through

REPEAT

It pisses me off that the SC don't provide a volume control. After boosting to hear the last tune, this one blew my head off when I pressed play.
I like your song. As you say heavy AIC influence. What I find intriguing is how close you can come to the AIC sound, like there's a formula of vocal, BVs, guitar tonality etc. that blend together to make that sound. Cool

Sounds good in my headphones! I don’t think it would hurt to boost the highs just a bit.
