Hello again Steemit!
For those who have been following along, you know that I lost most of my income at the beginning of January, but the ol’ steem blockchain has really come through, thanks to you all, and a platform like @DSound. This past month here has been pretty exciting, and I’m really thankful for your support.
This song, “Bad Times, Good Times” is a one-sided conversation between two people in a relationship that is having some setbacks. You can hear what he’s saying in this song, and can probably just about guess what she’s saying to him. While he thinks they could be on the cusp of greatness, she’s a little more skeptical. I wish I could say that I didn’t relate to this guy, but unfortunately, I think I may have had some days like this…
Anyway, in this recording I went a little crazy with lots of layers, and background “oohs”, and foot stomping, but man it sure was fun. I tend to write lots of intense and somewhat heavy songs, so I enjoyed being a little more lighthearted this time around.

Lyrics: (There’s nothing too profound here, but there may be some interesting colloquial language... )
I've got friends up in the city
They've got room they would take me in
But I'd rather stay here with you
So let's talk it through again
I've been thinking you've been reacting
to the bad times, the good times are just ahead of us
In my opinion you've been distracted
by the downturn, the upswing is on the way
I won't smoke up another paycheck
Good lord when will you let that go
At least it's clear where the money was spent
With you we will never know
I've been thinking you've been reacting
to the bad times, the good times are just ahead of us
In my opinion you've been distracted
by the downturn, the upswing is on the way
I don't wanna fight anymore
I just want to sit here
I just want to eat in peace
I don't wanna fight anymore
I just want to sit
I just want to eat
Don't you worry about my prospects
I said I'd finish my resume
Why can't that library be open more
For those who're working night and day
I've been thinking you've been reacting
to the bad times, the good times are just ahead of us
In my opinion you've been distracted
by the downturn, the upswing is on the way
I've been thinking you've been reacting
to the bad times, the good times are just ahead of us
In my opinion you've been distracted
by the downturn, the upswing is on the way
