I am standing on her shore
With the anchor and the oars
She's gonna move you like the never ending tide

And I'm standing on her shore
With the mermaids and the whores
She's gonna move you like the never ending tide

She's gonna move you like the never ending tide
She's gonna move you like the never ending tide
She's gonna move you like the never ending tide
She's gonna move you like the never ending tide
She's gonna move you like the never ending tide
She's gonna move

Opening sounds like early Nirvana. Actually the whole sound is pretty similar to 90s Seattle grunge.
similar to 'Bleach'? ... your talking about Nirvana right? Negative Creep, Blew, Downer, School ... yeah, this sounds nothing like those.

Not bad, but didactic. This reminds me of mid-grade Pearl Jam.

I like the guitar. I do stuff like that when I'm playing guitar. Simple and meditative. And it does sound like a "never ending tide", doesn't it? Gave it an 8.

Hmmmm... You can't strum a scale. And this is in G major. Nothing minor-key about it at all.
Mmmmm, strumming a sclae. I rather like the aliteration. Whatever the chord, nice strumming. (Not a minor, but I do seem to detect a 7th in there........)

The presence of *guitar* pretty much blows that idea out of the water.

Now that would be a silly thing to do. :-s Personally, I use a T-square for air guitar. Scales are used as drumsticks, right rolo?

Strum a minor scale. Make it really drone-y. And add some really basic 'four-on-the-floor' drumming. Is that a bad thing? Not in this case... What a dork I am. As Bill pointed out...you can't strum a scale. Anyway, great song.
