Crywank - James Is Going To Die Soon (2010)

Who Is Crywank?: According to his last.fm Crywank is James Clayton trying as hard as he can to do some folk-punk influenced acoustic music with no previous experience playing guitar.

Who Does He Sound Like?: He's a lot like John Galm but completely different in another sense. You kinda have to listen to him to understand I think.

Why Should I Listen To Him?: Crywank is heartbreaking, the name I can only assume is self mocking at the heartfelt emotions put into the song and gives you the impression that the guy singing them recognises this. The songs are simple from a musically point of view, but the lyrics are what really matters here. An album like this could have failed miserably if the guy didn't have the songwriting ability to pull it off. But he definately does. I'm not sure what James Clayton thinks about these incredible songs, but I think he's one of the best songwriters around today, and I think he is truely a poet.

I have to pay special attention to some of the lyrics and lines that really stuck out at me and made me stop and think how incredible they are.

"If I become nostalgia, you'll always love me more."

"My name is Casablanca,
and I'm practically alone.
I'd like to say I gave you away,
but we both know you where stole, by a stone."

"I want to be academic, confident and romantic,
but I just feel weird and overdramatic.
Daily reminders that I am pathetic.
When you're surrounded by it, it's hard to forget it."

"Each night I'm scared I'll die in my sleep.
Am I losing my mind or am I skipping beats?
I'll mouth nothing to no-one then call myself stupid,
it isn't helping anything but I won't hesitate to do it."


Song I Wish I'd Written: Hary Milk Shit On The Table




Honorable Mention: You Won't Meet a Girl Sat In Your Room Listening To Music (But Some Songs Can Still Give Butterflies)

    Thanks for the a new challenge you have discovered in your writing.
    One thing I'd really like to reply to is that FSBO associations are built after some time. By launching yourself to the owners the first saturday their FSBO is definitely announced, prior to the masses begin calling on Thursday, you build a good network. By mailing them tools, educational components, free reports, and forms, you become the ally. If you take a personal fascination with them as well as their predicament, you produce a solid connection that, on many occasions, pays off if the owners decide to go with an agent they know as well as trust preferably you.

    Thanks for your article on this weblog. From my personal experience, many times
    softening up a photograph may provide the photographer
    with a chunk of an inspired flare. Often however, the soft clouds isn't just what exactly you had at heart and can freque spoil an otherwise good photograph, especially if you anticipate enlarging it.

    Wonderful blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
    I'm hoping to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go
    for a paid option? There are so many options out there
    that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any recommendations? Bless you!
