Sitting At The Bottom Of The Sea (New Song)

Haven't put a video on for ages. Am having building work done at home, so it's usually too noisy, so thought I'd do a quick video on my phone of a new song being tried out while busking yesterday. It was the first busk of the year where I didn't need a coat..clear blue sky all day : -)
Haven't completely worked out how to play it. Left out the bit where I was setting up the loops as it then it goes on a bit too long before getting going!
I realised part way through the song that I didn't know how I was going to end it...keeps things fun.
I took it as a good sign that someone came and bought a CD at the end of it : -)

Lyrics:

Sitting At The Bottom Of The Sea

I'm sitting at the bottom of the sea,
sitting at the bottom of the sea,
trying to get the world to talk to me,
it's cool and it's calm
at the bottom of the sea.

No choices to make,
no choices to make,
lots of weird fishes swim round me.
I'll come back when I'm ready
from the bottom of the sea.

Yes it's all in my head,
yes it's all in my head,
but maybe it's as real as you and me.
It's easier to breath
at the bottom of the sea.

So, I'm sitting at the bottom of the sea,
sitting at the bottom of the sea,
trying to get the world to talk to me,
it's cool and it's calm
at the bottom of the sea.
I'll come back when I'm ready,
from the bottom of the sea.
I'll come back if I'm ready,
from the bottom of the sea...

Comment by neanderpaul on March 10, 2014 at 3:31pm: Nice to hear you again! :)

Comment by eK on March 10, 2014 at 2:09pm: My sympathies. There are few things that can get you as frantic as having workmen in your place. Went through it not too long ago and barely stayed sane.

Still, I'm very glad to see and hear another from you. Lovely lyrics, vocals, and playing. (Like always,) :-)

Comment by Jim Morris on March 10, 2014 at 1:02pm: Yes, a good day indeed! Been missing you around here Be. It looks like a rare sunshiny day over there. Be-autiful song and singing!

Comment by bemuzic on March 10, 2014 at 12:52pm: thanks a lot John. Haven't had too many new songs coming lately. All the building stuff clutters my head up too much! Someone suggested (can't remember who?) that I write a song about the building stuff, so I have. Filmed that as well, so may post it soon. It's called "Castles in the Air" I wrote it the other week when things were going frustratingly slowly. It's picked up a bit now....

Comment by Uncle John on March 10, 2014 at 12:29pm: It's a good day when bemuzic posts a video of a new song. Wonderful song. Very visual for me. Happy. And your vocals are just super. :)
