  dear sonar enthusiasts, this is a new song I have finished just today...the lyrics are German, for those whoses German language skills got a little rusted in: this song is about the situation when you go out to a party or bar, speaking to a person who is just talking about him/herself, and you are thinking: what the heck am I doing here? I could be at home working on that guitar track right now... for those who think this sounds familiar: here's the song ;-) any comments, rants or love songs, are welcome are they ever are! https://soundcloud.com/sp...att-ich-h-re-dir-nicht

well, dear enthusiasts, please excuse my horrible first master. I have fixed it now. and thanks for not ripping me apart online - I must believe the ones who have checked it out, must have shaked their heads in horror, but were too polite to let it out! you are a gentle bunch, and I want to thank you for that. my excuse, if there is any, is that my favorite football team get qualified for the euro league yesterday...I should not master when I get overexcited and enjoy too much of that German beer ;-) https://soundcloud.com/sp...att-ich-h-re-dir-nicht

Yesterday I shredded guitar using your song as a backing track. Verse chord progression is a nice trip outside the normal minor scale. Lyrics: my German is too rusty to follow it adequately but German always sounds funny because there are so many consonants in words. :)

Dear panup, you played guitar to my track? I am honored and blessed! You are right, German is indeed a tricky language, and does not easily fit to Rock'n'roll like English does. But we still try ;-)

Finnish is also not as good language to sing as English. German can sound very cool... When Rammstein states "Mein Herz brennt", I believe!

When the Rammstein singer states anything, I believe - or he will kick my ass ;-)

Dear Herb, thanks a lot! This is a good advise: just ignore the words, let the music do the talking ;-)

Sounds great.
 
The only german I can remember from my lessons is the oh, so useful..."Ich habe ein gummibaum in der badezimmer", so you / he could be singing paulo is a chump for all I know, but it still sounds great. ;)

Track sounds good to me. Obviously the language makes things a bit difficult for me , but it is well done for sure.
