Free Xeno Song: Get Off My Head

After all these years I FINALLY figured out that I sing wrong about 80% of the time. What I've learned recently is that the nasal sound I hate so much is largely a result of my not putting the proper breath pressure behind my notes.  Now I'm going back and re-recording all of my vocals.

Check out my latest version of  "Get off My Head" (previously the worst vocally of  songs I'd posted here.) Now it is not so bad to my ear.  The songs with a "0" in front of them were recorded since this new vocal discovery.

I could easily forget you if you'd just get off my head
In the apartment above there's a girl just made to love me but love fled
Now she's stomping around with some new boy she found
It paints my ceiling red
And I could easily forget her if she'd just get off my head


I could easily forget you if you'd let me sleep at night
I don't want to know your business but it's hard to hear you fight
And the power of the memory of the week or two we spent
And the urge to leave increases every time I pay the rent
And I could easily forget her if she'd just get off my head


Get off my head, there's an angel feet above my bed, get off my...
Have a better level of decency
Would you wait a little while a week for me
You know I can't forget


I could move into the country I could grow myself some wine
I could store it in the cellar I could sell it and grow rich in time
But I never will forget the girl upstairs and my delight
When I held her at the ocean on a cold romantic night
And I could easily forget her, but I won't. It's just not right.


Get off my head, there's an angel feet above my head, get off my...
Have a better level of decency
Would you wait a little while a week for me
You know I can't forget
You know I must forget.
