She scratched and scratched until everything matched.

So here's the story.

I started RECording for the collab. Then, I couldn't stop. Finally, it turned out pretty cool I think. The end, I'm leaving.

Your heart makes the difference.

It's just a quick song. And it's about people. Lots of people. And other things... maybe RE: The Road...

I left this intentionally bare because I wanted people to add as much as they could to it. So more vocals, more instruments, solo instrument section, anything! Stems up soon enough.

Lyrics

People on form, people on time,

People magically on top of their shit,

People changing and I know for one I'll be a son of a gun if I don't change one bit to get where I end up,

People folding, people without an apetite,

People exiting things without saving them prior,

People know I'm not one for a show but I can't help but aim a bit higher,

I was told I should prepare for the best of days and best of days I'll get,

Can I be a fighter and a runner?

I'm not one of those gambling men, but I'm my safest bet, and I quite like roulette,

People don't show, people loco,

Why'd he run from the bun 'cause he's bored of the oven,

I can't stand people raising their hand as they tell me there's no such thing as lovin', they're just being stubborn,

I was told I shouldn't mind if they hammer at my head,

That's just the order we are placed in,

What else could I do but fight my own way through instead, to make some real good bread,

Hurry there's no time for wastin',

There are doctors, there are nurses,

There are killers and coppers and warriors even now,

You can think that you're fine then you blink and you're old and you've lost all your money,

And no one is talking and reading gets harder but you know the truth still,

People are people,

You know the truth still, people are people,

You know the truth still, weak and their feeble, people are people.

‘Hair Recession ‘Man‘ Lines‘ by seldelaterre

Fun voice over of MattConley’s short film script ‘Hair Recession’. I’d like to see this to be turned into an animated short film in a subway existentialist kind of way some day. Stevebreski also made a very good VO of this one. So all we need now is some animators, right?

Some people enter hitRECord quietly, Kevin just threw it all out there. I was actually going to Re-REC his ‘Re:Loops – Everything Has’ video (I encourage you to read the story behind it!), but since that has been featured already and since I left quite a trace of hearts on his profile I decided to just do a person Re-REC instead. I am still stunned about just how many (all really good) RECords he has put up on the site in the short time he has been on here. Watch out hitRECord! I thinks there’s a lot more to come!

‘Another Word For: Unrequited’ by SloaneAvery

Dialogue tale based on Joab Nevo’s tiny story ‘Him & Her’. I like how both characters leave an entirely different impression. While he is just showing fascination, she is very conscious of her ultimate fate and thus emanates a deep sadness. Voice over, anyone?

‘Making Love 20,000 Leagues into the Stars’ by Izzipics

Truly mesmerizing digital painting. I don’t even want to imagine how much time went into this. Also love the allusion to Jules Verne in the title!

‘One by One’ by Murker

Beautiful tiny story about the paradox of flowers made into a bouquet, at first representing beauty and life and soon after that dying. Sad, but beautiful.

‘(REmix) tiny stories – friend’ by isabellamari

As you could probably tell from my former Re-RECs I am sometimes all about simplicity. In my opinion JiuKK’s tiny story was almost complete. Isabellamari managed to give it that tiny bit of text it lacked, still leaving enough room for interpretation.
