My friend told me he was trying to challenge himself to write a "joyful song" and I thought, gosh.. I've never really tried to intentionally record a song, I normally just let them unfold of their own accord. -By golly, I'm gonna try this!
Now I realize why I never sit down and force myself to write. I'm not good at it, I lose focus, and write trivial crap. But, it's still more fun than a kick in the head.
So here it is, my version of a "joyful song". For what it's worth, my friends song turned out to be beautiful.
I recorded this tonight, but for some reason my MIDI wasn't working so any sounds other than guitars/tamborine/claps are from a mic'd up keyboard from Meijer's Thrifty Acres in Michigan circa 1990.
It was fun to record. Enjoy.
