Pounding drums, throbbing bass, weird, ambient guitar, a Melltron choir. And my voice of doom, multitracked and with harmonies.
I am very much back after a 20 year period, have a deformed left hand & severe nerve, tendon & muscle damage in right arm. I used all kinds of weird tunings.
Story behind the song
I have my uncle's old 45 collection, and we always considered this a Scotch drinking song. Well, it was already pretty doom-laden, so I went in my psychedelic doom metal direction.
Lyrics
It's Sad to Belong
Met you on a springtime day
You were mindin' your life, and I was mindin' mine too
Lady, when you looked my way
I had a strange sensation, and darlin', that's when I knew
That it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Oh, I wake up in the night
And I reach beside me, hoping you would be there
But instead, I find someone
Who believed in me when I said I'd always care
Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
So I'll live my life in a dream world
For the rest of my days
Just you and me, walking hand in hand
In a wishful memory
Oh, I guess it's all that it would ever be
I wish I had a time machine
I could make myself go back until the day I was born
And I would live my life again
And rearrange it so that I'd be yours from now on
Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Oh, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes, it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
