I did a brief MP3 post on The Farewell Circuit a little while back (about four months ago), shortly after they released their debut album, The Birdless Sky. Well, the guys (smartly) aren’t taking any breaks. They’ve completed a 5 song EP that will be made available at most online retailers sometime this week, and to hold you over we’ve got the single “I Am A Ghost”.
While songs from The Birdless Sky were prime examples of straightforward catchy pop, “I Am A Ghost” has much more depth and has piqued my interest in The Farewell Circuit’s future. With a slight folksier edge but no less catchy of a melody, “I Am A Ghost” displays Danny’s trademark crooning vocals, which ratchet up a notch in tone through the course of the song. The keys and strings are slightly subdued to start, but such subtlety gives the song it’s true backing. Wait for it to pick up at the 2:30 mark; it doesn’t let up. Nice way to end a rainy day.
Lee, this is wonderful. Thx for sharing.

Lyrics are:
So it seems this is all, all we can afford
And there’s no way that we’ll ever, we’ll ever make it out
Of this damn house, these damn walls keep us here
So take me now, no one sees me anyway
I am a ghost
If you want I can show you where it all went wrong
The very spot at which I slipped and broke my crown
And now I’m stuck in the hallway of your home
I am a ghost
So you would say, we’re not that far away.
But all we have left are the vapors of our breath
If you want I can lead you by the hand
To the place where I lost myself
It’s not bad, but it’s not exactly good
You come away lighter than you were
You’ll be a ghost
We are all ghost (We always were)
This is wonderful !!
Thx
