Comment:
When I looked at the telephone songs at my disposal, I saw a theme: bad vibes transmitted via telephone. In this collection you'll find loneliness, obsession, rejection, karmic backlash, other mules kicking in other stalls, maddening busy signals, drunken longing, natural disasters, unfaithfulness, shady characters to be avoided, teary goodbyes, and a final blowoff. Enjoy!Feedback:
Interesting concept. Looks like there is some great tracks on here; I would love to hear this!
Nice work. 'Memphis' would have fit in as well.
Nice work.
Hah! Clever and very well executed. really like the 14-19 run.
Ooh ooh ooh -- I was going to do this mix! But my version has Tom Waits' "Martha", sob. (Admittedly, it also has "Memphis" performed by Tiny Tim, so maybe you're driving on the straight tracks after all.)
Spot on!
this is one of my favorites. please call home is THE BEST. thanks for your creation.
