A fantastic, brilliant, colorful, delicious, epic composition! This is one of those one-in-a-million exceptional bit of songwriting. I'm impressed. A lot of mojo happening here. Take a bow, cause I'm standing and applauding this one -- FABULOUS! 5 STARS!

beautifully composed ... love the bass and piano at the start ... great when it kicks in ...like the nuances like the strings and electric guitar bits ... a well produced and mixed piece that takes you on a few dynamic journeys ...the ending rocks ... strong vocals.

Finally, at last... I've got something finished...
Been working on this for a few weeks.
A bit of a rocker... (and an aging lecherous one at that)
I got it as close as I could and then mixed it loud... I've over-cooked it slightly - but…
This song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…

This is one of the many songs going round my head from when I was young. No idea whose version I heard and used to sing along to back then, but it was written by Larry Collins and Alex Harvey.
(EDIT: Done some research. It was Dottie West's…
New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
I found this kinda challenging at first... so I listened to it again, (and again!)... and now I'm kinda "WOW!" about it. The melodies and chords are amazing.
Another song that doesn't really stand out to me. This one is a little embarrassing though. The tempo is set at 85 beats per minute. Originailly it was 95 beats per minute. Why did I change it? Because I couldn't pick the guitar part in the…
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…
The Good Old Days

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.
Like beavers and willows
Bats and mosquitos
Toad frogs and flies
Like algae and oil spills
Miners and coal hills
Black holes and light

:) 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!

EPIC!!!!!!!!!! Haaa!!!! Great Work all the way around!!!!
Ya nailed it. Awesome mix.
beautifully composed ... love the bass and piano at the start ... great when it kicks in ...like the nuances like the strings and electric guitar bits ... a well produced and mixed piece that takes you on a few dynamic journeys ...the ending rocks ... strong vocals.
Wow... I see why it took 5 months. A wonderous construction indeed. As I'm no longer an Alonetoner... I'm Mac McIntyre
another beauty from the house of Russe ......
Awesome classic rock, outstanding tune!
I missed this one. Really Nice Ballad.
Good ole Rock N Roll...still alive and kicking!!
Nice -- really, really nice.
A great, Classic Rock-style song -- vocals, guitar, lyrics, vocals, everything! Rock on!
I still like it as it is!!
Wonderful piece. Enjoy the variety in your material.
So sweet! Love the lyrics. Such a gorgeous vocal job. Very gentle yet so powerful.
If you were going for that AC/DC sound, you nailed it. You sure can cook up some fine recordings! Great job -- Rock on!
Astonishingly great blend of vox - you guys sound amazing together! More please.
This is such a lovely, heartfelt tribute. Romantic/cool, very fabulous.

Oh yeah, I remember this from the other day on songcrafters. Love it.
Oh yeah, gorgeous sounds.
Cool sounds
Like I said - WOW!
I found this kinda challenging at first... so I listened to it again, (and again!)... and now I'm kinda "WOW!" about it. The melodies and chords are amazing.
Wow - those leads! Nice one
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
