Hey guys, I'm currently recording and polishing my upcoming self-titled debut album, "Christopher Tom," here's a demo of track 2, "Turkish Chinchilla."

Song written and performed by me, Christopher Tom

LYRICS:

Rolling high on a windy day
She follows every word I say
We’ll get out of this place someday
Live in a cabin far away

Never thought I’d make it here
But here I am, I’m making it happen
At the setting sun
In time, we’ll get yours done
When I get up
Don’t ever get down, you see

Turkish chinchilla
In my big villa
You may think it’s funny
My old loft is so sunny now

Going out in my big canoe
She follows everything I do
We’ll get out of this place someday
Live in a cabin far away

Never thought I’d make it here
But here I am, I’m making it happen
At the setting sun
In time, we’ll get yours done
When I get up
Don’t ever get down, you see

Turkish chinchilla
In my big villa
You may think it’s funny
My old loft is so sunny now

Turkish chinchilla
In my big villa
You may think it’s funny
My old loft is so sunny,

Turkish chinchilla
Cheese and vanilla
You may think it’s funny
My old loft is so sunny now

Is this your voice? It's good.

MistyE responds:

Yeah, it's me singing and doing the instruments. Thanks for the review!

That's groovy, the vocals really threw me for a loop, I think it's the way most of the starting lyrics are read, kudos on keeping the words metered well! Maybe one or two lines could've been more clearly pronounced.

Lyrics are a 10/10, as are the interesting lyrical intonations. Not too crazy about how the tin can effect turned out, but it's just above par, or maybe the instrumentals are so clear and sharp... but that also adds up to be a good combo. Audio engineering aside, I'd love to hear this on the radio!

MistyE responds:

Thanks! That means a lot. Regarding the tin can effect, I'm not so sure about how that came out either. For this and one other song, I sung through my practice guitar amp to get a bit of a lo-fi gritty effect like The Strokes, so that's why it sounds like it does.

Thanks for listening! There's a lot more music from me coming soon.

I would ask questions, but I believe I will just let you know that this song is batshit grade A awesome. It's quirky and upbeat and I feel good and now I also want a Turkish Chinchilla.

MistyE responds:

Thanks man! That means a lot.
