SaW #6: Mike is gaaaa... Lame


Song For: Thursday March 17, 2011

Background: Some years back, Mike my brother Pete and I were visiting a friend who has a professional grade music studio in his house. While we were figuring out what to play next, I started strumming the chord progression you can hear in this song, and singing "Mike is gay". I have since tried hard to remove using "gay" as a pejorative, so when rerecording I've changed it to be less offensive.

This is the first song I've recorded with my new Pro Tools / MBox setup. I couldn't find my studio headphones, and I don't have any monitor speakers setup, so I had to mix using a 20 pair of Sony Headphones. For what it is, it turned out ok.

Chords:
Verse Am, E
Chorus: Dm, Am, E, Am

Lyrics:

Mike is lame... (ad nauseam)
