Hi everyone, Got a new one recorded... tell me what you think. The recording was hard to get right, having troubles with my equip. Maybe best heard with earphones 😋 “Birds of a Feather” Words & Music By Tom Tognaci https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=15028241 My fair-weather friends, birds of a feather Proving me a fool, together Was there something in the wind? Was it me or just the wine? I took it squarely on the chin this time Were those tears cried for my sake? I was right to have my doubt When you couldn’t wait to take it south My fair-weather friends, birds of a feather Playing me a fool, together So, goodbye, my so-called friends You’ve made the bed you’re in And that feathered bed you made You once again will trade … and trade, and trade, and trade. No, it didn’t take long for our world to rearrange For your pretty little song to change Were those tears just made-up things, an excuse used to move on? Was he waiting in the wings all along? My fair-weather friends, birds of a feather Up, up, and away, together

Sounds good man , the hooks a bit of a cliche , But it recorded real well LOL... yeah, I guess! It's what happens when you write a "Fair-Weather Friends song" There are bunches of these out there and I wanted to see if I could write one, or two, or three that might be as good or better than the ones that are out there. The first one, "Fair-Weather Friends" is of a happy nature. The second, "My Fair-Weather Friends... Birds of a Feather" is of a sad nature. The third will be of an angry nature (soon to come). All three heavy in the same old, tired, cliched theme. I'm just hoping that they bring something a little different. Oh... and thanks for stopping by, bennash!

I have NO IDEA what is going on in your head. All three songs will have the same theme... not the same hook. You should know the difference... but I get it, you've become unhinged because of that bad, bad orange-man. Instead of a rant... write a song about it. I'll listen to that.

I think your trax AND reverb are a bit saturated in the 1200-1500 range... Always like your style though, Tom! BTW; Don't mind Elvis. He's just frustrated because he can't compete with MartyDom

Tony is a troll.
He has descended on your song.
He senses that he has pricked you and successfully annoyed you.
Now he is feeding on it.
You write well. This is just idiocy. Ignore it.

I don't really have a problem with anyone here... Really.
I'm just here to bullshit about our music. Sometimes, with a great beer in hand, there is nothing I like more than to talk about music. REAL music... real good music.

I think about 10yrs ago, I really had to check myself! Sitting at my computer every night with a tall, dirty, 3 olive martini became my usual routine. One day, after work, I couldn't wait to get online because I had a song idea in my head all day. I got home, went straight to the kitchen, grabbed my favorite martini glass, only to find an empty vodka bottle in the freezer. I yelled at my wife, "Who the hell drank all my fuk'n vodka?!" She yelled back, "YOU DID, A$$HOLE!" She was right. I broke the habit of drinking every night on the spot! Now, I go months without drinking Come to think of it... My eX really hated me when I was sober...
