A cover of the Christmas song, in a classic style.

Mostly.

A brownie in traditional folklore is a type of elf or fairy or hobgoblin that helps out around the house.

Of course they could be mischievous at times, and I like the idea that every good thing has a dark side. No matter how good something appears to be, there is a capability for it to be evil.

The song itself is an instrumental based around some tribal beats, with some heavy grooving riffs and a lot of dissonance in terms of note and chord selections.

And yes, that picture is completely unrelated…. but it looked tasty.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming….

This song is in my “classic” style. Big distorted guitar riffs, pounding drums and bass, funky keyboards, multiple solos, big hooky chorus, and lyrics with a depressed attitude and a hint of paranoia.

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
I want to join into
The true way and there stay
But I drift, form a rift
Between me and the sea

Chorus
Disconnected
Disaffected
Disadapted
Disrespected
Disdirected
Disadapted

Verse 2:
All alone they disown
Who I am with their sham
So I run to no one
For their greed I must bleed

Instrumental.

Not entirely sane.

Soft intro with pads and soft guitar solo, rocking middle with keyboard and guitar solos, a bass solo and then the slow, crushing destruction of the end.

Exactly the kind of the unexpected thing you should expect from me.
