Today I looked in the mirror and did something productive. It's Glass Opera, mostly written by a pair friends of mine when we were all in college, with some additional writing and arrangement by me. Parts of this recording date from 2005 (I think it was), with acoustic guitars, piano, all vocals, and dramatic editing and remixing done today. I hope you enjoy it. It's ok if you don't.  http://www.sendspace.com/file/phgkec

I really like this, it has a fabulous sound, love the flabby drum sound for a start. The piano work is really enjoyable too. This reminds me a bit of some of the more upbeat Dylan stuff from this last decade (not that i'm an expert but that springs to mind), anyway really good, might be in my top tunes of yours Luther.

Wow, thanks. Wish I were more responsible for its composition and so could take credit. The drumming in it is among my favorites Bill the Drummer ever did. There is a much busier version that uses parts of this same track, but I really liked toning it down. (I also love singing the refrain, for all its nonsense.) Thanks.

Reminded me of a somewhat crazier Ben Folds type of thing...not bad at all in my book.  Really cool arrangement too.
