This is a remix of this song.
It was recorded in 2010, and I was in a hurry to post it elsewhere because I'm so fond of the song itself. But I've always hated the old mix - I lost the essence of the guitars and choirs during mastering because…
Well, here we go then...

Yeah you know what it is that I want

How many times did you wonder whether I would dare?
Oh never mind...

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 wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…

This is a pretty intense listen for something written 25 years ago! You have a wonderful gift for making every word sound completely in the moment and real.

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…

Mrs R is right . . . *"It's ready"*
You have acomplished what many can not; Offer a complete thought in a succinct manor.
Nice going Andrew! You make it sound easy.

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

D I sing the verse and…
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.
This didn't go as planned... I wrote this song for my wife Nicola while I was away in the UK working in March 2020... I excitedly played it to her from 3,500 miles away over the ether and.... I think she was expecting a ballad rather than a rather…

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

Very nice Andrew , must have been difficult to sing man , i think the length of the song suits the content and style , fab

Love it. What a vocal on this. You always connect the listener with the song. Another beauty added to the catalog.
Heart-felt springs to mind, love it
This one got to me right away. Wow, great song!
Mrs R is right . . . *"It's ready"* You have acomplished what many can not; Offer a complete thought in a succinct manor. Nice going Andrew! You make it sound easy.

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
