Not For Sale
by @daveyboy103
Liner Notes
Love and meaning can’t be bought, and that defining ourselves through possessions ultimately empties and traps us rather than fulfils us. They contrast genuine love and self-worth with consumerism, warning that constant acquisition damages the soul and reverses control — what we own ends up owning us.
Lyrics
Love’s not afraid And love’s not for sale And love is always asking questions Are we in the past And is this love gonna last
Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything
Show me what you own And I will tell you who you are Your destiny defined by things Spend your life acquiring lasting and desiring
Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything
And we never have enough And we never see The damage to our souls The souls of me and you Now the things that you once owned Now they own you
Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything Not for sale, not for sale you can’t buy everything

i wasn't expecting that sax to slide on in, and i looooove it. feels very noir, very soundtrack, in the best way, then those vox come in and cut deep.

This immediately hooked me. It's currently a rainy cold day in Wellington NZ and this is the perfect moody soundtrack. Super impressive production as well!

This needs to be in a movie. Blade Runner meets the Crow meets the Hunger.
A compliment indeed, thank you so much

Awesome production. Vocals sound brilliant. This really fits with the track from yesterday. Nice cohesion. I’m getting some Roxy Music vibes from this. The sax again is a great addition. A nice deep lyric as well. Great stuff
Interestingly there is only one chord in the verse and only two in the chorus. Thanks for the kind words
Sometimes those are the best songs. Simplicity is really hard to pull off.
Stretches you a bit as you do need to provide some variation around that single chord. I particularly like the synth riff in the chorus but I noticed I forgot to add it to the final chorus' Will fix it later. Your first track absolutely rocks.
