Ain't Our Home (Original)

Here's a song draft I thought would be fun to share. I've been watching a lot of horror movies and shows recently, and one thing that's struck me is the theme of hauntings being a manifestation of personal loss or trauma instead of actually representing something supernatural. That's an interesting idea for a lil' character study, so here we are!

Support and follow!

The thing that I enjoy the most about Mr. Carson McKee is that he is not trying to be trendy, he’s just being Carson McKee. 👍🏻🏁

I've never seen such a clean guitar in my life.

It's amazing how deep and poignant Carson's lyrics are in his compositions. I know when i see Original in the title of his videos that an emotional journey is going to happen.

Fell asleep watching YT the other day and woke up halfway through this song and haven't stopped listening to it since

[Mguitar]

Carson's gone electric...like Dylan in 66.

[steveblomerth]

This deserves to be on the next Other Favorites album.

[DonovanCalebStewart]

This is currently my favorite song. Man, you cook up some good tunes. Please give us more!

The only thing wrong with this is it's too short. I had to listen to it five times in a row. Great styling. Bravo!

[strawberryme]

One of my favorite voices ever great work and great song

[TrevorTsui]

Carson's right hand picking is just so good! Awesome song!

[lissliss]

I could easily (sadly) resonate with this song. Having said that I'm so grateful you recognise that, that's what horror movie themes may represent. Trauma and loss can create PTSD - so the fact that you wrote this song touches my soul. Thank you

[dianeo]

Very cool song and theme. Speaking of theme, the grey and black color coordination of the guitar and outfit has not gone unnoticed to this artist's eye :-D

[danielrossetto]

Carson, what a song. I really like the use of 12-string acoustic over the electric in this arrangement. Wonderful piece of poetry in the lyrics, too.

[donaldgardner]

In my opinion you're one of those people who can't help but be good. Your music is honest and from the heart

[jessicacosiguitar]

I'm in love with your voice. Wonderful song Carson! :)

[RADThird]

Yep...another good one. Carson's on a roll!

[zayb_]

didn't expect the 12 string but i loved it. you're a huge inspiration for smaller artists like me self. Keep these amazing orignal tunes coming.

[charlesford]

Just wanted to say great tune but specifically man that chord progression is sweet. Your voice with those lyrics and that particular progression, just really well done dude. The replay value on this tune is quite high. Thanks for sharing Carson.

[daviemcf]

Lovely looking guitar Carson and great song....brilliant performance as usual.

[EHzRacingCollecting]

You writing real good stuff man. Loved this song. Like the Gretsch too. Stylish. 🙂😎
