Second of two songs on the album about trying to be a better person. The first was about people not trying, this is about struggling (and kinda failing) to be a better person than you have been. Slide parts courtesy of Gary...

This one is about how falling in love kind of involves giving up any say in whether or not your heart gets trampled. It's about that fear. Gary doing a sterling job as usual on lead guitar..
She's amazing
Beauty holds no bounds
and her voice…
Have no idea where this one came from. I was strumming away and the words just came out. Seems to be about some kind of wrongdoing in the past. May have been possessed. Thanks again to Gary for helping out on lead..
In sleepy towns through…
A folksy number inspired by the stories my nan told me many moons ago about her uncle Herbie..
Herein lies the story, of a man named Herbie Jones.
Not a million miles away from a man you might have known.

Thanks to Mike Brown for lending a hand with the lead parts.. despite trying his damnedest not to! Also thanks for MMI for the advice which in part at least, I took!

Just a fragment.. but thought it was worth including..
If I were to lose you now
I don't know that I could cope
Please don't leave me now, don't go
You're my only hope.
Hey I like your album cover. The sticker design on the bottom right has a nice edgy design feel to it. It just pops. Nice work on the artwork and the music, well the music of course!
This provides a theory which ties together two of my key traits a) always tired b) terminally disappointed by peoples lack of courtesy - there's a link people!
Did you ever feel so down
That you didnt know up
Didnt recognise highs
And smiles…

Just letting out my frustration at 'people' in general again.. nice to be able to vent it in a more pleasant way (for those interested in how I used to do it, please see http://alonetone.com/boynamedsu) :)

With JS Tolar, as band Visions Of Nell.
My tribute to Anne Boleyn, the first queen to be publicly executed in England. I used some of the poetry she wrote during her imprisonment in the chorus. An innocent, incomparable woman.
With music written and performed by Soundsmith Kamachi.
It was the last day of RPM and he asked me to write a lullaby for a track called Cornucopia. Very much enjoyed how easily this one flowed. That's my mum, Bee Mathis, adding class to the…
Thanks for the comment on caligraphy butt.. as a friend of mine once put it 'its like cbeebies on acid'! This however is beautiful and utterly bewitching. A bit special that one.
Tempest Fero Lives again!
My first real band was called Tempest Fero. We shoulda rethought that name. Anyway, this was one of the first four or five songs we wrote. There should be keyboard, but I don't have the skill or the patience to…
A very Merry Christmas to you all ....Thanks for listening...i got me a cry baby she's still not tamed but a lot of fun so i had too try her out and this is the outcome.. hope you enjoy!!
This track dates back to 2012, when I was in the process of recording my 2nd album, "The Only Way to Build is to Tear Down," in a super run down shack, while seriously broke. On the other hand, that was the last album I really did multitracking…
New song. Wrote the guitar part first, lyrics came later. This is one of the first songs I've done more than one track on in quite a while, and also one that isn't dark (unusual for me). Anyway, enjoy!
just spent an absolutely lovely 15 or so minutes in the comfort of your songwriting. truly brilliant. in my humble opinion. especially liked lyrics of the last 2
fading slowly
i'll disappear, and you won't even notice
it's just a trick the light plays on your face
and erase, the frowns of worry
might be less and growing more less every day
hurry now, oh boy, you'd better hurry
now here, is where…
time goes by, we never notice til we die
this is the why, the how the where the goodbye
maybe the preacher told you right from wrong
maybe you think the wait is far too long
to worry your head with every little thing
cause life is just a dream…
t twenty, life was all planned out.
Did everything they said to do.
Stopped thinking for myself and turned my will over to you.
Ten years later, I was gone.
You'd stolen my identity.
I tried to pick the pieces up, but there was nothing left of…
Shit hot! Incredible. Vocalist's a real treat too, all fits together perfectly. New favourite band? Quite possibly. Certainly better than all the shit I've been downloading lately. Also, jealous.
I got myself a little bargin off ebay a Zoom GFX-707 £25 and have been playing around with the effects ....here's a tone i like so of course i tried to mould something to it ...i feel i've made a bit of a breakthrough with teaching myself the…
DJBride put this backer up on Songcrafters looking for some lyrics and i couldn't resist so here's my second Friday nights offering for you ears...the original instrumental can be found here http://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=18439…
I was not happy with my first mix of this thing. I changed the drums on both songs and the bass on the first song and redid all the effects. It's a little better now. Maybe. Kind of.
I wrote this when I uploaded the first mix:
Two songs that…

Were you one of the guys on top of the Apple Records building in 1970? ;-) Nice work!!!!
You have a serious gift for writing good lyrics! This is great!!
Was there a female vocalist in there? Give her more space. Otherwise I really enjoyed this. :)
