No claims of being a performer. I just give it what little I've taught myself musically by songwriting. Recorded by mic, straight to computer as sound on sound.
Born at an early age, I was just a kid at the time....from there memory escapes me, until 2000 or 2001 when I decided to teach myself guitar. In order to teach myself guitar, I took to writing songs. From there, I added bass and occasionally, harmonica and a small touch of electric guitar. Not much of a performer, but I love to experiment writing songs. So, it's nine or ten years into it so far....and I've only scratched the surface with tons to learn. Maybe, you'll find something you like on the nearly three pages, I've loaded so far....Comments are welcome, I don't expect all comments to be favorable, but objectively constructive. I make no claims of being a performer....I just give it my best with what little that I've taught myself both musically and in songwriting. All songs are either written, played and sang by myself or my attempt at covering a song by my favorite artists.

Lyrics
Afterglow Extended Version Sunday, October 05, 2008 Wade Farlowe (Wind Effects) D A So sad to be certain D A The many shelved, shamed, hurtin' D A In this constant state of restlessness DA Saving the best for less C G D And the trials for those on call C G D Will they stand, will they fall AmDAm In the Afterglow D A Plotters will embark D A Moving at the speed of dark D A Mazed powers and principalities D A Hiding where all can see C GD And seeing what shapes the fall G C D Will they stand, will they stall AmDAmDAm For the Afterglow F#m G A2 Standing shadows engraved on the block F#m G A2 Permanent shades, in the once liquid rock C G D Petrified memories, they will all know ADA Survivors of the Afterglow (Break) ADA Survivors of the Afterglow D A So sad to be certain D A Moving at the speed of dark D A In this constant state of restlessness D A Hiding where all can see C G D And the trials for those on call G C D Will they stand, will they stall AmDAmDAm Glowin' in the Afterglow F#m G A2 Permanent shades, in the once liquid rock F#m G A2 Standing shadows engraved on the block G C D Petrified memories, they will all know ADADADA (repeats fading) Survivors of the Afterglow(Ike Speaks) (Wind Effects out) Let's do this one again (Spoken) Make the most of it Devil's on the ground (These lines repeat) Angels in the skies Dark moon shinin' the past in my eyes

Hi Wade, Just gave this one a listen. Love the effects you mixed in...the wind, the phaser effect.. add to the picture of a desolate affter-world should we have to endure a nuclear war. Gave you a 4 star on production...wld like to have heard the vox more in the foreground, as the words are very relevant to the song...but that's just my opinion. Very well done. Tks for the song and the imagery.
NICELY DONE WADE, ME LOVE IT, AWESOME JOB MY FRIEND HOW YA BEEN? CHEERS

What an ominous ending Wade! Very cool , we luv the special effect vocals and the whole concept is exceptional!! The original is cool as well, but the added fx really adds the punch to the extended version. You put the icing on the cake and it sounds SWEET!!!!!!!! Hats off to you and your incredible writing and musical talents!!!! 10++++++++++ LLP...~J&C~ : ) ; )
