Something on the Way
Tried to rework a year or two later with a band, didn’t work. Too moody. This song wants to be a happy one. So smile already.

During 2002 and 2003, I curated a number of video “shows” in Portland. At first they were all at Bar of the Gods, and so I wrote a theme song (and produced a video). A bit tongue in cheek.
During the year I was making a lot of this music, I also spent a lot of time at this bar. They also hosted my video show every month. So I wrote them a theme song. Like Cheers. Just like Cheers.
Another retake. Transparent, you might say.
Song kept building. Rare attempt at sincerity in songwriting. Don’t hold me to it.
This song would be rewritten as “Tellina Lie” and performed band-style. Vocals in bridge just had to go.
