Upside Down 03:29
i can barely sleep. i can’t follow dreams. with everything that’s going on. the world is upside down. and we keep falling out. police are killing people now. so what do you say? i’m so unhappy, now. so where can we go? nobody knows, now. ----- [2nd chorus] and what can we do? to stop the bad news, now. i’ll keep my sad thoughts, like most other scots, now. we’re writing on the street. the writings on the wall. no need to let your people fall. collective hearts unite, let’s stand strong tonight. love has to be equal.

about

i wrote this song and recorded it on the same day, which is probably a bad idea.

it's a song that's about the world being a mess, with me writing this during the coronavirus pandemic in july.

i play all the instruments that you hear, however, i asked my truly gifted friend sam leighton to perform the drumming on this track. he's simply better than me. it hurts when you lie to yourself about your performing, you know? haha.

i currently record my music at home in my apartment in glasgow, scotland.

i used two microphones for everything you hear, an se 4400A and an se 2200A. i use logic pro x, and plugins by waves.

i think my favourite guitar pedals are my jhs vcr and tc hall of fame.

i have an orange dual terror 30, and an orange ppc212 cab, paired with my fender stratocaster. additional guitars used this time was a vintage modified squier jazzmaster - i like that thing.
