It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…
Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…
Let me introduce to you
Every woman child and man
The place I did my growing up
Raised by grandma's hand
I think you'll find
That folks are kind
They're sure to ask you in
Enter the warmth
Close the door
And my story will begin…

The lyrics are pretty selfexplanatory; it's about so-called magic-pill-solutions. The doubletracked "guitarsolos" could have been better but I only recorded them on the last day and thought it might be OK a little rough and off. I did them really…
There is a Dutch expression Luchtfietsen/Luchtfietserij which I transated as Skycycling. It's a term for unrealistic plans/dreams. Another recent Dutch expression is Linkse Hobby (leftist hobby/leftwing hobby) which was coined by rightwingers…
'm doing a course in Mandarin Chinese and mamahuhu is one of my favourite words. It means so-so (literally horsehorsetigertiger); "not so good". In this lyric I just allowed myself to whine about my situation; get it over with. I like the harmony…
Technically it's OK; I like the guitar and basslines. The lyrics and vocals I'm not so fond of. I hoped to have enough time to replace this one later in february with a better one but alas, it was not to be...
watch it.. he'll sue! He's done it before and he'll do it again. And he wont let the fact that its almost entirely different stop him. the doors werent safe. Beware Ray Davis. Genius. But complete nob.
Original song: from the album, TheSongOfTheDay.com - June. Featuring our friend, Qadree Holmes on vocals, this song goes out to all Notary Publics everywhere. The song came about when Jason was asked to notarize a few immigration documents for…
Original song: from the album, When I Was Your Age (which started off life as our RPM album for 2009). When I Was Your Age features songs that take a look back at when we were kids. If you're anything like us, Saturday mornings were about two…

1 drum machine
1 vocal (whistling) track -- not sure if the really out-of-tune parts are cool or awful.
Sorry for killing the comments…
EDIT final version now posted and the page turning is gone but i left this intro as is in case anyone is reading the comments. Does anyone read the comments? or the intro?
i turn a page somewhere in the middle of all this - you'd think i would…
Final version
Guitar, mandolin and voice.
this doesn't fit with my rpm project AT ALL so i may not use it but i like the way it came out. I recorded the music for Bethan Mathis' RPM project but she didn't have time to use it (her album is…
i dont know how. but although i really liked it i didnt fully connect with the power of the emotion in this till this listen. im completely in love with it. i have regular regretful momments. this will be an ideal soundtrack when i need it out of my system
I'm finally happy with this track - v1 was too much of a nothing song and it's been bugging me all the way to the last night of the challenge.
1 more to mix
Final version
Every so often when i'm thinking of something else a western song pops up as if there is a soundtrack to a movie running in the back of my head. I might have to gather em all up into a playlist some day.
track nine, or at least…
