Looking for some airplay on this new song. Comments welcomed
Hello everyone
I just posted a new song called "Beggar in the Night"
I could sure use some airplay for this one. I hope you all like it.
Comments are always welcome.
1st song on my page. Sorry I still have not figured out the link thing.
Words:
Beggar in the Night
Verse #1
A beggar came to me, just the other night.
He asked me for some money, in the pale moonlight.
So I said, how bout a burger, as I kept him in my sight.
When I turned around, he was gone gone gone.
Beggar in the night.
Verse #2
I took the burger with me, headed down the street.
I saw a bunch of beggars, nothing much to eat.
So I gave them, all a section and I’m sure it tasted sweet.
I told them of, the man I saw, he was gone gone gone
Beggar in the night.
Lead:
Verse #3
Heard a whisper in my ear, don’t you worry no more.
I’m the man you helped out, one of the very poor.
Each night I test a soul or two, to see if they are pure.
Then I leave this place and I’m gone gone gone.
Beggar in the night.

I like the film noire vibe, w that darkstreet guitar wailin', kudos...
The storytellin' is clear and decisive, and touches on big themes i.e. hunger, desperation, apathy.
To be honest the 3rd verse put me off a bit initially, it seemed a bit off the tone of the realism in the earlier two verses.
All in all, a unique sensibility f'sure, kickkin' production also...
Cheers...
