Ha! Very witty .. I also struggled to find anything with the word electronic in; I had about 3 songs from artists I knew, but didn't know the actual song, so went with the word remember in this song I performed live. It has the line "Remember me I used to live for music, remember me, I brought you groceries in", which is here:

First record I could find was 8th Dec, 2002, and this is what it looked like: https://web.archive.org/web/20021208055 … ordie.com/

Looks like it became popular around 2005 as per this graph of usage:

2006 according to the Wiki article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-line_Guitar_Archive - I think the 'take down' stuff started around 2003, a friend wrote a script to archive it, and you can still find remnants of it on the web today ...

Also added this one from Crowded House - https://youtu.be/Dv9RVOJ-YQY  unfortunately was trying out a new mic, which gave a phaser style sound to the clip, which doesn't sound too good.

Has the word road in it.

Dancing in the dark: https://youtu.be/9aox2lsj7F0 has the word 'help' in it ... (not home like I said in the video).

I did leave a reply on soundcloud, but this sounds pretty good!!

I like the laid back, swing feel of this song ...

Always hard to get a good balance between voice and banjo (or banjitar), and even though I was listening on headphones, was hard to make out the lyrics ... but what I could make ou sounded like a fun little song!!

This is quite a good song, I'm curious what you recorded it on ... ?

I know what you mean about 'not practicing slide' - I think I've finally given up on that ... but the song sounded quite good, I'fd never heard this one before ...

I appreciate you setting your phone back a bit ... Personally I think it's better when you can see the guitar as well as hear it - I always look at the guys who do videos 'professionally', and they always sit or stand with their waist upwards visible; so those young-un's still got something to teach us

The song was quite good and suited you vocally, I don't think it was 'all wrong', it wasn't perfect, but making mistakes is better than faking perfection ...

Thanks for the great feedback (and also from @easybeat, @Peatle @TIGLJK), sorry for the delay in replying, I'll have to start working on some September songs and catch up!

I was having a look through my Road songs, and saw this one has the words "Killer on the road", so here is Riders on the storm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kpt7HRc15rg

Sounds pretty good to me!

Hit the road, Jack ...     

Not sure if you're looking for comments on the musicianship or the recordings; but the singer needs to control his mic a bit better; I can hear a load of plosives in "Tamborine Man" (sometimes a wind shield can stop these, even a stocking over a piece of wire frame can keep his mouth a bit further from the mic). There are some mixing issues in "Knocking" in a couple of places; I'm presuming that's a guy singing falsetto for the backing, as he's delivering strongly in some parts, but fading in others ... personally with a vocal like that, I'd usually double it and pan it in extreme left and right mixes. They also need to decide if they are following the chord progression or the melody, as it seems to be a mix of both. During the second solo, with the guitar, the band seems undecided if they are going all in, and the rhythm guitar goes louder, but the rest of the band stays the same volume. It sounds as if the bass player wants to get there, but is being held back by the drummer. It also would have been good to add some 'ooh's and 'ahh's in there to reinforce the sound. I haven't heard "Never get over you before", and it started out strong, there was a point which could have done with some extra instrumentation (around the middle of the song), like a solo or something. There's also something with the drummers cymbal or high-hat I couldn't quite put my finger on, sounded like he had a sizzle in there.

In all three songs the musicianship sounds ok, everything sounds reasonably tight, apart from sections of the dynamics, but that;'s something I find comes with working together for a long time, particularly with bass and drums, I guess my main questions would be about whom these recordings are for? If it's a demo to sell yourself to a publican, I reckon you'll get the gig, if it's memories for the band and punters, you'll be ok there as well. If it's for a release, then there are areas to improve.

Hope that was helpful in some way; also hope I picked the right three songs, as I saw you have a couple of others on sound cloud with the same date.

Please keep going and posting new songs, most of the stuff I mention is easily fixable, and it's always different in a live setting compared to recordings!!
