I’ve been working on the lyrics throughout the day. I wanted it to be recorded simply, and as an acoustic track. I think it’s important to hear songs at their raw beginnings, and hear them as they were intended.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Killing Yourself&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;We said that we will never speak&lt;br/&gt;But when I walk out on the street&lt;br/&gt;There is she, looking right at me&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I’m never one, to overstay&lt;br/&gt;When the love runs out, I’ll be on my way&lt;br/&gt; I live for love, what I would give for love&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When I’m old I think that I will break&lt;br/&gt;I don’t think there is much more I can take&lt;br/&gt;I think it’s better being underground&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The message spreads like a car-crash bed&lt;br/&gt; The streaming eyes for the village dead&lt;br/&gt;Hey how are ya? It’s been far too long&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;All she did was a minute&lt;br/&gt;Took my life, poked a hole right through it&lt;br/&gt;Innocent girl, you’re not innocent…&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; When I’m old I think that I will break&lt;br/&gt;I won’t stand on my feet and make it through the day&lt;br/&gt;I think it’s better being underground&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; I think it’s better being underground&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As I wanna fade away&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think it’s better being underground&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can’t believe, this is all to me&lt;br/&gt;Thought there would be more to see&lt;br/&gt;But this is it, seems a wasted trip&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I believe that true love see’s&lt;br/&gt;All you are, and what you are&lt;br/&gt;meant to be, I’ve had enough of me&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When I’m old I think that I will break&lt;br/&gt;I don’t think there is much more I can take&lt;br/&gt;I think it’s better being underground&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/3132802546</link><guid>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/3132802546</guid><pubDate>Sun, 06 Feb 2011 00:24:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>This is a song called ‘Time &amp; Sympathy’, the...</title><description>&lt;iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_2882310063" src="http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2882310063/audio_player_iframe/99randomsongs/tumblr_lfgb4yARlM1qdykzo?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2F99randomsongs%2F2882310063%2Ftumblr_lfgb4yARlM1qdykzo" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="169"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.josephwatkin.com/17.jpg"/&gt;This is a song called &lt;strong&gt;‘Time &amp; Sympathy’&lt;/strong&gt;, the 17th out of my 99 songs challenge. This is another song that has been a week or so in the making, mostly because I re-wrote the verses several times. It’s an acoustic track, recorded live in my living room. I hope to record a full instrumental version sometime in the near future!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2882310063</link><guid>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2882310063</guid><pubDate>Sun, 23 Jan 2011 01:07:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title> I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Years! This is my...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/41NopudSMt8?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.josephwatkin.com/16.jpg"/&gt; I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Years! This is my first posting of 2011, a song called &lt;strong&gt;‘The Boy Who Was Born Alone’&lt;/strong&gt;. I noted the idea for this song on my iphone a few days before Christmas, and finished it earlier today. I have found it really useful to have something portable to record my ideas onto before putting them on here! &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2704143977</link><guid>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2704143977</guid><pubDate>Tue, 11 Jan 2011 23:29:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>This song is called ‘There’s a First Time For...</title><description>&lt;iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0ABV8iga6Uk?wmode=transparent&amp;autohide=1&amp;egm=0&amp;hd=1&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.josephwatkin.com/15.jpg"/&gt;This song is called &lt;strong&gt;‘There’s a First Time For Everything’ &lt;/strong&gt;and is dedicated to anyone who has (like me) been fired from a job in the past! It took me about 2 hours to write this one, using my iphone to record the bare structure of it, and then penning in the final lyrics the next day!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have received lots of requests to ‘see the guitar’ on youtube, so this is my attempt… I make absolutely no apologies for the video centering! I stand by it as ‘Artistic License’ :o)…..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Enjoy, and keep the song suggestions coming!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2303253754</link><guid>http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2303253754</guid><pubDate>Mon, 13 Dec 2010 20:01:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>This is song number 14, ‘Don’t Ask Me My...</title><description>&lt;iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_2135311324" src="http://99randomsongs.tumblr.com/post/2135311324/audio_player_iframe/99randomsongs/tumblr_ld2sgx4GZ21qdykzo?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2F99randomsongs%2F2135311324%2Ftumblr_ld2sgx4GZ21qdykzo" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="169"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.josephwatkin.com/14.jpg" width="80" height="80"/&gt;This is song number 14, &lt;strong&gt;‘Don’t Ask Me My Name’&lt;/strong&gt;. A song about finding your identity and being comfortable with who you are.

In the midst of lots of new songs being written, I thought this would be a good one to post here first. Please do let me know your thoughts!

I like to think this is one of my more ‘organic’ folk songs, recorded straight into my Flip Ultra Cam! It’s called &lt;strong&gt;‘Limited Edition’&lt;/strong&gt; and is song number 10&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

On another note; there has been a gap in these songs, but not to worry they are still being written, and I shall catch up with the uploading later. I’m going to blame it on my birthday last weekend.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I wrote this song this morning, so this really is a day in the life of video. I hope it gives you some insight into my songwriting.
