Another "lost" tune from 2011. (I think it's the last one.)

This one evolved by itself with no real direction from me until I got to the whistle part. Originally I played "when Johnny comes marching home" but that was just too damn sad. So I wrote this slightly less tragic theme.

The next day I didn't like this tune and very nearly erased it.

But the mood and the theme stuck in my head and when I listened to it again a few days later I really liked it.

I need to be more patient with these tunes. I've erased a lot of stuff that might have been saved with a fresh attempt or at least a fresh perspective.

When I was leading a rock band in the 90s I played a song for the group as a demonstration of what crap I could write sometimes and said, "This piece of crap is getting pitched." But the other guys liked it and insisted on working with it. It became our best received song of the season.

Long story short, I have no @#$% idea what I'm doing. Smile
