The Ghost I Know: If you're true to me / I shadow you, you shadow me
http://theghostiknow.blogspot.com/2012/01/if-youre-true-to-me-i-shadow-you-you.html
The Ghost I Know. Monday, January 23, 2012. If you're true to me / I shadow you, you shadow me. It is a universal truth that The Beach Boys would be much cooler if they had a differen't band name. I absolutely love Pet Sounds. It really is a masterpiece. My favourite song on the album is I know there's an answer. Apparently the original song was called Hang on to your ego. This song of mine has had two lyrics as well. The original version ( If you're true to me. If You're True to Me. If you're true to me.

The Ghost I Know: November 2011
http://theghostiknow.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
The Ghost I Know. Monday, November 28, 2011. Last week at a gig, some one shouted out, "play something upbeat." I replied,"sorry, we we've done all our upbeat ones.". So I went home and wrote this.it is as upbeat as it gets for me. The thing with upbeat songs is they just don't get their claws in deep enough. They last as long as a lollipop. So this has a sinister undertone for kicks. You make me lean. It's not your lies. It's too much truth. And I could leave you. This is the last dance with you. Nick C...

The Ghost I Know: Nightingale
http://theghostiknow.blogspot.com/2012/01/nightingale.html
The Ghost I Know. Saturday, January 14, 2012. Written in an afternoon. Brought to the band a week later. Performed the week after. I think it could be a good one. The band version is more sonic youth than this pretty shaky acoustic demo, but they both have a place. This one is for Liam. Words and music: Andrew Savage). The creases that you looked for, you found. And those friends that made them call you out. You're not the only on who knows. And I still believe. I can see you bleed. Leaving you my number.

The Ghost I Know: August 2011

The Ghost I Know. Saturday, August 20, 2011. Cheese on toast.but I like it (Does She Want to Know). Everyone loves cheese on toast. Even if you have tried to run from the golden goodness on crusty bread, you will one day return - like the prodigal son - to that hallowed staple. Unless you are a vegan that is (hi Shannon). But we shan't include that particular cult in our discussion today. Why is this relevant? Cassette tapes safey hidden deep in the wardrobe. James' are amazing. Great big chord progr...

The Ghost I Know: October 2011
http://theghostiknow.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
The Ghost I Know. Friday, October 21, 2011. Firstly, apologies for not meeting my post a week goal. The Dickens have been busy recording a little demo/ep and I have been quite busy at work. Forgive the brevity of this post then! This song comes from one of those weekly panic sessions. Here is the process:. 1 Pick up acoustic guitar. 2 Strum away until I hum a tune. 3 Quickly record it onto my phone so I don't forget it. 4 Set up my archaic old zoom 8-track. 5 Lay down a quick drum pattern to play along to.

The Ghost I Know: April 2011

The Ghost I Know. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Living in the Gaps. Me living in the gaps. 65279; This song always sits in the 'I'm not sure' basket. Somedays I think has real potential. On other days I absolutely despise it. There is this rather limp/strange Beach Boys. Vocal thing I was trying to do at the end, which kind of grates me now. On the other hand, I like the tune. I also like the sliding guitar thing, but I can't help but think it is (as always) in the wrong key for me. First drafts are only the...

The Ghost I Know: September 2011
http://theghostiknow.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
The Ghost I Know. Saturday, September 24, 2011. For a long time I worked in music retail. First, I can vouch for this truth. It was nothing like the movie Empire Records. We actually used to have people coming in asking for jobs because that is how they though it would be. Unfotrunately, I didn't work with a perfect cross section of musical tastes and current fashion. It was nothing like this:. For me, one of the best was Twilight as played by the Twilight Singers. The Twilight Singers were Greg Dulli.
