And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.
On…

Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…

Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
Do love a golden oldie, great song, as I record on a Boss, we love Mr. Boss : ) And yes could be on any Family album ..... are you sure you're not Roger .....

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

**Now It's Done - A A J Russe**
I said it…
The other night I was sitting out watching a little fire in my backyard, and thinking about how useless it is to let the past dictate our present and future. This one is dedicated to all of us with relationships in our history that have no place…

One of those moments I had disappointed my lovely bride...
Tried to apologize with my guitar....hasn't worked yet...
I have a lonely guitar I keep beside my bed
"cause when my guitar's happy my lady's always sad?
The two don't get along…
I can relate... tho not nowadays... I don't have any lonely guitars, they're all among friends here (well, maybe the ones in the loft feel a bit left out of it) ... and she has a healthy relationship with them... but first wife...not so much! (and she's the one who married a gigging musician!!)
As I have said many times...I am happily married 99% of the time.
But this song was written in that 1% time frame? Jokingly.....
I disagree with what you see is always what you get
All I said is two little words, now my life is filled with…
This would be the ballad of Rick and Debbie, head over heals, how about you?
It was a simple plan take her out one time
But something went wrong with that plan of mine
I didn't fall I didn't fall I didn't fall in love--I took a tumble…
This track started out nice and peaceful, but accidentally grew until I was not able to control it anymore.
Lyrics:
All that we do
its just me and not you
always the same
keep your head in the game
## pre-chorus
and away, and away…
This song was written for those interested to hear a list of breakfast cereals.
Also, when you reverse "all brands kellogg's" you can hear "smell that in your pool" which makes an interesting title.

:) I wondered if that was the case - but then the "oh here's some words, whatever, at least they rhyme" often speak the loudest to the listeners! ... It's just gone 8am here. Just seen Mrs R off (her boss collects her - she's a nanny), I've been working since 6.15am... doesn't look like the sun is actually coming out today here!

Short but very sweet... These short ones encourage me to add all sorts of extra meaning myself as I'm listening. That's kinda what happens when we listen to songs anyway - no matter how much the lyrics are designed to lead us to certain conclusions or "points of view"... a song never really says what the songwriter thinks it says ... but these short ones encourage this "listener completes the song" process even more, they let my mind run free ... love it.

Cool track. But does she like it like this? What did you play to her originally? I suspect that creating a second version, closer to what she was expecting would be the safe thing to do.... LOL
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
wow!!!! Your voice is just epic!!! I love the pacing of this song. It makes me want to know all the backstory about Edith. An instant fav...
Love the slide! What a great song. No one warns us that vowel sounds matter when writing lyrics, but you nailed it.
Brilliant ...
So very cool. Not my place, but I wish the outro was also the intro. I like what I like. I liked that very much.
Really really good. I thank you.
Great song perfectly executed.
Dig it right from the first note cool work on the slide you know how to write to song :-) KC
Wow! Fantastic work - Loving the bass work 👏
THAT SLIDE IS TO DIE FOR, CRY FOR OH MY. Brass on strings my fav
Cool song, great slide work!
Great track!
Wonderful medley of tones weaving in and out. Love it! That slide is captivating.
Oh yes Andrew .... Epic ..... Dark ..... Love it.
That’s a real energetic Edith at the beginning of the verse she certainly gets it ...loving it ....nice solo ....
Do love a golden oldie, great song, as I record on a Boss, we love Mr. Boss : ) And yes could be on any Family album ..... are you sure you're not Roger .....
Another quality recording from the broom cupboard
Excellent writing. The key modulation grabs me in that sweet spot
Outstanding song and message!
Dance music!! Love it.
Just beautiful...

Oh yes. Fabulous sounds.
Oh yeah! Love this. Happy Birthday Maxine :)
WOW, this one is gorgeous. Song and vocal fabulous. And Greg's and playing and production isn't too shabby either!
Excellent song... I know the feeling.
Loving the sounds
Oh yeah, some might cool playing. Yep, deserves to be true. Let's say it is.
Nice one. Loving the sound of that strummed acoustic. So big and clean and alive. Cool song too.
I can relate... tho not nowadays... I don't have any lonely guitars, they're all among friends here (well, maybe the ones in the loft feel a bit left out of it) ... and she has a healthy relationship with them... but first wife...not so much! (and she's the one who married a gigging musician!!)
Nice one... and more cool guitars!
Some mighty fine guitars. And a cool song.
Nice one, cool sounds.
This one makes me chuckle...
At last, the prayers of breakfast cereal lovers the world over have been answered... they might be scared off by that title, though LOL

A really enjoyable 11 tracks. Cool sounds, inventive stuff going on. Nice one.
Yep, and this. Like it. OK that's my listening set up for a while... now let's see what work wants!!
Cool sounds. Wasn't sure what to expect reading your profile. But this makes a really good start to my day.
Digging the bass.
Cool track. But does she like it like this? What did you play to her originally? I suspect that creating a second version, closer to what she was expecting would be the safe thing to do.... LOL
