So, here’s the re-recorded version of “I’m Better Off,” which I wrote and released exactly one year ago today.
The new one is what it is. The old one’s here, if you want to compare.
Be on the alert! There’s a Poor Elvis show this Friday. The details are here. Check it out!
All the important news for today. All in one location. All in song form.
Alright…it’s new song time again. Wrote Get Up & Shout last week in a fever.
I think it’ll probably make it’s way into a Poor Elvis live show at some point, in some form. So watch for that.
Well, here’s the re-recorded tune that I released this week, last year. Was actually on this date, last year. Go check out the original version and then compare and contrast.
You’ll see I didn’t change any of the words. Just how the song sounds. The cadence, the style, the meter. It’s a waltz now. I particularly enjoyed the mouth harp on this new one.
So this song is a year old. There you have it.
Now, Poor Elvis has a show tonight at the Orbit Room. Why not come check it out. You’ll probably hear my new tune “Mother Mary” (although, a little different than the version I recorded it for Monday).
It’s gonna be a good show. It’s outside on the back deck. Doesn’t get any better than that.
Here’s some more info. Starts at 8pm. See ya there.
All the news headlines you need to know from Monday.
I’ll admit that taking a break from these, while refreshing, made it a bit more difficult to compile headlines into a song. I was just outta practice and it took me the whole entire day to write the song. Had to keep going back, hoping for rhyming words to pop into the headlines over at CNN.com. Maybe I can just blame CNN for not writing good enough headlines, though. Yeah, I’ll do that.
Get it together, CNN.
