Driving down the high way I looked up the sky was falling I’m so glad I noticed That my eyes are in focus Headed down the next turn Wondering where this will lead me Trying not to look back Memories still deceive me
Shy till noon x3 Shy
Look at all the rainbows What a way to spend the day Hear the pretty voices Listening to their stories Not believing what I’ve heard Trying not to laugh too loud Tears are falling to the floor Pick one up and save it for me
Shy till noon x3 Shy
Catch a falling star Save it for a rainy day now Ring around the bulls eye Pockets full of hope and sorrow Ask me what I think and I’ll be sure to tell you I can hear your eyes blink Keep no secrets from me now
Shy Till noon x3 Shy
Now that I’ve said it all You can draw your conclusions Just one last thing I’ve been meaning to say In the arms of angels You quickly learn to fly And the devil always has work For those with idle hands
Shy till noon ---- fade

A different style here on this track than my first 2 songs. A mellow track actually. Lyrically it’s a 2 part song to me. The chorus is inspired by a middle aged woman of wealth who is a closet alcoholic, and she does not come to life until her first drink of the of the day at about 11:30 am. She is “Shy Till Noon”. And Robert Plant, and his way of words, and a mushroom trip I took some years ago inspired the verses. Tin Pan Alley arraignment with a hint of The Beatles (at least that’s what I’ve been told). I will post the lyrics for this one.

This is great really reminiscent of greg sage kind of tunes. This is why I don't bother buying music nowadays. You either appreciate something like this or you don't its not really something you can share with everyone or push onto the mainstream consciousness in other words it just has to happen. For me its happening great work.

You have a weird voice , but i mean it in a positive way....
Its a rocky song , that is everything else then predictable...
Creative!

"Shy Till Noon" is an interesting blend of 60s mod rock and Nirvana-esque 90s alternative. The lyrics are descriptive and transport the listener to a strange scene on a highway.
Personally, i feel like the vocal track could have been done just a little smoother...Particularly coming back into the choruses...Maybe do the chorus vocals on a separate track..
I think that would really set it off...I'm digging the vibe though.
Nice work here.

Hi Robert. Great clarity on the recording! "Shy till noon" is a cool lyric line but all the words are good as well. It must have been a good trip, lol! Yep in the Velvet Underground style. It's cool to hear you're keeping it alive!

the guitars are so odd but they go great with the vocals and surprisingly well with the bass. good job.

Decidedly a Lou Reed sort of vibe with great lyrics. I enjoyed this Robert.

Just read the info, sometimes it's the mix of experiences combined that brings about the inspiration to create something. This is a shining example of that. Liked the simplicity of this. good song

Nice work of art Robert. This song has an unpolished, raw feel that works wonderfully with the lyrics (and the story behind the lyrics). Nice stuff.

i don't know why but this reminds me of something from velvet under ground.. lou reeed .. interesting lyrics too.
<p>I'm Robert Joseph, I started writing my own songs about 5 years ago, and I am a self proclaimed guitar player, songwriter, musician. I am heavily influenced by blues based classic rock. In the real world I earn a living as a self employed woodworker/carpenter.</p><p>Robert Joseph first picked up the guitar at about the age 18. A old Stratacaster knock off with 4 strings and no pickups. He managed to learn a few chords, and gets some strings, and with the help of a friend, started to learn his favorite music. As time passed he grew estranged from the guitar, and at times would not pick up the guitar for years at a time. That was about to change when a wonderful thing called the internet opened doors to musicians around the world. This renewed Robert's interest in playing music, as he saw a outlet to share his music with all that will listen. Robert's music comes from the heart, and the world in which he lives in.</p>
