New Song Up: "Wanna StayByYourSide"

I wasn't really sure what the heck I was gonna do until this morning. I took a shower and jumped up in bed with a towel on and my acoustic guitar. Then this melody and lyric revealed itself to me. I had a few other things I was working on over the course of the week, but wasn't really satisfied with them. So a hot shower did me good evidently. (usually I take just a cold shower)
Set out to work at at and finished about 12 hours later. It's the first time I've sung an entire song in falsetto! Goash, I didn't know I had it in me. It seems like a mix of Love and Rockets, Prince, Fine Young Canibals, The Cure, Chumbawunda, and I don't know what else. But I think it's cool.

A slow, groovy, sexy song. It's about not wanting to leave your girlfriend's or boyfriend's (whatever th case may be) side. They are simple, yet slightly clever I hope, lyics. Sometimes the kiss principal is the best. Especially in songwriting. Also on this week's show is Atomsplit's "Quicksand".
