I was flapping around working on something else with just vocal and guitar the other day. It wasn't going well, so I just started slapping the guitar and singing one of my favourite songs.
What I didn't realise was that I was recording it…

Great chord changes and build ups. Well done Andrew!

Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.

Ahhhh....good to see u back in the forum! Love the light touch and well placed notes. Soulful and thoughtful lyrics. Many listens and likes for this gem.

Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
Yeah - magnificent song. Love the vox.
Like the vid too :)
...Interesting watching you play, btw - you've got a different right hand, but watching your left hand I could be watching myself in a mirror! Don't often get that feeling watching another guitarist :)
We're truly nowhere now,
and there is no fight for who's king.
Through a tear in two souls crawls
the shapelessness of this dream.
I lay down in the sun to spring leaks,
when in pours my weight in dead fruit,
under which the ground gives way…
Extravagant and clean and practised, oh, so very well,
they pose and fall and knead and climb, unclothed yet practical.
The ceiling sets the scene and I am reminded not to go.
I'm at the mercy of this posthumous woe.
Never seen again…
I wrote this after I sang with a friend
at his mother's funeral.
He had always wondered
why he looked nothing like his brothers...

D) Me and little brother didn't like that…
Another one of my lil ditties that I started writing at the bowling alley. First game I bowled a 204 the rest of the evenin the games were less exciting. Get me high, then strike a blow

Here's a new one, heard a saying on an advert, 'your home isn't a home unless... ' Out popped this, right let's see what you've all been up to lately, had a few days off. Catch up time.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Lovely chord sequences, tender stuff. Nice.
Unbelievable quality yet again, can't seem to get this out of my head for the past couple of days...and that's a very good thing!
Dynamic. Top stuff once again.
Oh yes Andrew, that's the Bees Knees, to my ear's a No. 1 for Joe Cocker
Rockin' good
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose - surely one of the greatest lines every written, great version.
This is my favourite ever AR track. Your vocal is amazing, and the song-writing, superb. -Tess
Obviously brilliant. -Tess
Yes,yes, yes, Soul is alive Andrew. Ill download and play this one for Cindy and Sierra.
Great chord changes and build ups. Well done Andrew! ________________________________________ I had to go look up the word *"Dirge"*. I like hanging out with people who are smarter than me.
A magical voice, that draws you in & fills your soul. Love this track. w;-)
Another soulful, fabulous vocal ! Another fabulous track! w;-)

What a soulful vocal! Excellent track! w;-)
What a universal little scene. Well told. Every little boy has to deal with that uncertainty. Will she? Sad it never changes for so many of us.
Pensive, maybe. But not dirgy. Just a little more voice in the mix please.
Nice.
Well done.
Wonderful, as always, and I just remembered the story behind this one! Great dirge; glad you're back x
Excellent love the piano.....strong vocal ..love it

Yep, I'm very fond of LWIII as well. Only saw him once though. One of the funniest nights of my life. Nice version :)
Wooo! Never heard the original. But this vocal is sparkly and huge :)
Ha! Ha! Rockin.
Blissful. We got the same roots :) (Did you spend years trying to sing like him too??)
Yeah - magnificent song. Love the vox. Like the vid too :) ...Interesting watching you play, btw - you've got a different right hand, but watching your left hand I could be watching myself in a mirror! Don't often get that feeling watching another guitarist :)
Wooo... wonderful. Now I'm going have to go and find Geir's version - not sure I've ever heard it.
Don't know the original, but I like this version a fair bit :)
Lovely version. That guitar sounds FABULOUS. Faved from the first notes.
Yep, like the four so far. I'm going to have to check Cockney Rebel out themselves now!
Not that familiar with Cockney Rebel... but I'm liking this a lot.
Similarly majestic - and fabulous.
Woof!! This is majestic.
Haha! Superb... absolutely superb. Groove, song, everything.
And this one too. Love it.
Wonderful crazy stuff.
Faved from the outset. Love the vocals. Fabulous tale in the lyrics. Brilliant. Looking forward to the update.
Oh yeah... killer, soulful... and wonderful :)
I love the "Is that it? Is that your perfect plan?" Someone needs to say this to me sometimes... she probably does... and I don't notice! lol
Looking forward to the "Cornflakes" song now :)
Yeah, love how it skips along. Nice one guys.
