Craig Benedict Valentine Badynee: I Walked Away From The Firing Squad

Chicago based musician Craig Benedict Valentine Badynee goes all out with I Walked Away From The Firing Squad, his new single about a relationship from Hell. He wrapped his hurt in a blanket of orchestrated piano pop, a torch song that burns brightly as he stacks metaphor upon metaphor: "I dreamt in books of drifting flesh // In marriage, I found there was some peace in bed // But all those dog years talking, your bullshit hawking // Really did a number on my head".

He really nailed the hurt husband part, leading up to loud "no, no, no, no" coda, with Caz Badynee helping him out with the vocals and Dima Faustov howling on tenor and baritone saxophone.

I Walked Away From The Firing Squad is a self-released single. Buy it (CD, digital) from his website.
