    knocked this little ditty up yesterday during my massive headache, excuse the strangled voice as my throat is now collapsing in sympathy with my imploding skull!

    it only lasts 2mins 25seconds so its not too long out of your busy schedules 😀

    http://www.myspace.com/music/10533093/songs/74996665/

    the lyrics are:

    “So What?” – Old Ghosts

    so what if i needed you
    so what if I were true
    so what if I hurt you
    So what, what should we do?

    this livin aint easy
    but dyings too hard
    this grief it confounds me
    its dark, where you are
    so dark, where you are

    so what are you thinking
    so where will you go
    so far when your near me
    so hard, to let go
    its so hard, to let go

    so move all the future
    my heart bears a scar
    I still hold you in me
    where ever, where ever, ever you are
    where ever, ever you are

    so whys it all broken
    so where’d it go wrong
    so what did i mean to you
    so what, did you want
    so what, did you want

    so what if we break up
    so its all gone wrong
    so whats left inside of me
    just tears, and this song
    there’s tears, for what went wrong.

    (c) Old Ghosts 2010

    The complete song was written & completed in about 20mins, yesterday, All recorded on my iphone4 using voice memo as I no longer have access to a studio, on a battered and world wery 1966 framus accoustic with a capo on the second fret.

    I know posting this on here is throwing myself to the wolves but hell I feel rough as hell and could do with the sport 🙂

    Maybe it will be all for the best
    The misery now is just a test
    Finding solace, a little happiness
    Usually resolves all the crapiness

    Hardly ever knew you
    Always far away
    Veering to the distance
    Every single day

    And always..

    Wanting to talk,yet
    Always seeming distant
    Never close enough
    Know what I mean???

    Gal, where you been so long ?

    its a trad folk song, as old as the hills, i chucked another old one into it to make that, all my own arrangement, glad someone else likes it 🙂

    You’re absolutely right – I thought Dylan wrote that for some reason.

    Great stuff anyway, like all of them. Pretty good sound on “So What?” considering you did it on your phone as well.

    yeah was really suprised by that, iphone4, default voice recorder app, sync’d with itunes then converted to mp3, oh hang on, its mp4 on myspace, the bbc asked for it in mp3 as they can’t use mp4’s, literally just putr the phone on the table next to me and played 🙂

    I cannot get your tune to work on my iphone but i will report back, but have you tried any of the four track apps?

    I have one cleverly named 4Tracks it is blinding!

    You can get a taster freebie app give it a go

    You can point your brwser to your phone or upload straight to “soundcloud” from your phone…..

    Hey Nutt, those lyrics make me sad, probably cos I’ve met you and have an idea what it’s about.
    Try listening to my link on your poignant thread…

    [edit]sound like Ian Curtis.. Do what??
