No claims of being a performer. I just give it what little I've taught myself musically by songwriting. Recorded by mic, straight to computer as sound on sound.
Born at an early age, I was just a kid at the time....from there memory escapes me, until 2000 or 2001 when I decided to teach myself guitar. In order to teach myself guitar, I took to writing songs. From there, I added bass and occasionally, harmonica and a small touch of electric guitar. Not much of a performer, but I love to experiment writing songs. So, it's nine or ten years into it so far....and I've only scratched the surface with tons to learn. Maybe, you'll find something you like on the nearly three pages, I've loaded so far....Comments are welcome, I don't expect all comments to be favorable, but objectively constructive. I make no claims of being a performer....I just give it my best with what little that I've taught myself both musically and in songwriting. All songs are either written, played and sang by myself or my attempt at covering a song by my favorite artists.

Lyrics
Afterglow Sunday, October 05, 2008 Wade Farlowe D A So sad to be certain D A The many shelved, shamed, hurtin' D A In this constant state of restlessness D A Saving the best for less C G D And the trials for those on call C G D Will they stand, will they fall Am D Am In the Afterglow D A Plotters will embark D A Moving at the speed of dark D A Mazed powers and principalities D A Hiding where all can see C G D And seeing what shapes the fall G C D Will they stand, will they stall Am D Am D Am For the Afterglow F#m G A2 Standing shadows engraved on the block F#m G A2 Permanent shades, in the once liquid rock C G D Petrified memories, they will all know A D A Survivors of the Afterglow (Break) A D A Survivors of the Afterglow D A So sad to be certain D A Moving at the speed of dark D A In this constant state of restlessness D A Hiding where all can see C G D And the trials for those on call G C D Will they stand, will they stall Am D Am D Am Glowin' in the Afterglow F#m G A2 Permanent shades, in the once liquid rock F#m G A2 Standing shadows engraved on the block G C D Petrified memories, they will all know A D A D A D A (repeats fading) Survivors of the Afterglow (Ike Speaks)

This song has a cool touch of folkpop music from the early 60s for my ears. Impressed that you go also such a musical way. Its modern musicbased on traditional country music. Surprising, impressive- Really admire you talent. Its my fav song. timeless is the right word. send you my deepest gretings. ERik
Really luv the guitar chord change on this song.It swifts with no efforts from part to part.The echo on your voice gives this song a depth of another level. You have a real talent for story telling.I feel like it goes out(and probably does) of you naturally...I guess thats why i think your a great artist...it sounds NATURAL & REAL!The song is beautiful WADE! Like every other songs you have!
GOOD ONE BUDDY, GREAT SONG WRITTING AS WELL CHEERS AND BE GOOD C & N

Hi Wade, Now this is a real nice change up. Really like this one has the classic vibe to it. Beam me up Scotty. A haunting melody and I have never used the vocal effect you are using but I am very tempted to after hearing how well this sounds. You sound like some solo Lennon on this one. Nice work Wade and thanks for coming by and nice comments. Much appreciated.
