VideoSong 7 - Lonely Ghost
A VideoSong is a new Medium with two rules:
1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).
Lonely Ghost by Jack Conte
Lyrics:
And on this casket's back sits a little lonely ghost. He misses his old lungs and wishes he had his throat, those good old days! Daylight will wash away. It's going to fade, yeah it will fade, and the darkness will take it's place. It's going to come, yeah it will come, so I'm grateful for this consciousness oasis that paints the darkest carpet with a sudden streak of white. We burn so bright!
I will swallow it whole, I'm going to run, yeah I will run until my body breaks down. I'm filling up, yeah fill me up. Fill me up!
Don't look back: you'll turn to salt. So just march on, let moments melt.
I'm awake. Wake up! Wake UP! I'm awake, I'm AWAKE! And I'll never piss that away. Let's be loud, let's love, let's make some sound! Let's make some sound!
Gulf - Jack Conte VideoSong

Gulf is a VideoSong, a new medium with 2 rules:
1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).
By the way, the bullet time effect is achieved by filming and recording the guitar track 8 times in an arc, then switching between the angles at about 2-3 frames per second. All of the layers are still in the audio mix, so it still follows all the VideoSong rules.

if you have artwork that you'd like to submit to be the album art for one of my future songs, send an email with a 1000x1000 picture file attached to:
JackConteAlbumArt@gmail.com
If I end up using your artwork, I'll need a link and two sentence blurb about you to put in the "info" section of the metadata for the mp3. Please include that with your email!
Gulf, by Jack Conte
Lyrics:
Stay still, soldier. Follow orders. Load up, lie low, and pray for water. I watch us come undone. I watch us come undone. Live for morning and dirty magazines. I took it all the way. I took it all the way.
