APOCALYPTIC LOVE SONG IN OPEN G by Stevie Simkin / Never the Twain solo demo
A solo demo version recorded some years ago for a friend's stage play. The key word in the chorus each time (turning around YOU) was dropped at the author's request to make it less obviously a love song. Maybe I should have changed the title too?
It was always better with Sean Quinn singing harmony, and it becomes a different song entirely on stage these days with Dan Conroy's violin and the fingerpicking evolving into some furious open G strumming.
For what I have here so far, it is what it is. And it's for Aileen.

First attempt at recording with Logitech C925e webcam and OBS Studio software. Might as well start with the song I have written most recently... HEART LIKE A BROKEN CLOCK There’s no sunlight in the breaking dawn But rainy Mondays never got me down When the truth comes knocking at my door There’s nothing I’ll miss about this town Pack up all my things and drive Go looking for another place to hi...

    Question for all my fellow Petty fans.... There was a live performance of Even the Losers acoustic, where Tom decides he wants to start the song over a couple of times. and he says some real funny stuff. it's really cool, AND NOW I CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE! CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME??

      He was absolutely amazing. The man. The wisdom, the risk of taking requests! Nobody has the confidence to do that anymore, it seems. How fucking cool. They don't wanna make a single mistake or something? ID RATHER WATCH A PRACTICE THAN SEE A PROFORMENCE. HOW COOL IS THAT?!?!
