This is one of my favorites ever!!!! The tension builds as though she's really had quite the trip indeed.... What really happened on the pier... Excellent!!!!!

Very inspiring lyrics! I can hear all the anthem-esque background arrangements. Love this one!

Sort of song I would expect from Elbow ... very good ....

Well, this is LOVELY.

My wife loves Brighton, been they a few times to see some gigs, always turned the wrong way to get back to Portsmouth and yes ... Fish and Chips on the pier....

So, So good ....

You are a smoking hot song writer these days. These are all great songs and an ispiration to the rest of us.

Great story telling. I love the Tattoo part. Some of those never wash off. Maybe that can be your next song.

Lovely.

I love it! Great title and topic for this song.

Another great tune! wow...7 in 7 days...that is a lot of creative energy. Really beautiful song and your singing is powerful. I do like this unplugged version btw. But yes, a little vodka martini will go with it nicely.

Hahaha! An uplifting musical postcard which I'm sharing on facebook as I didn't send any! That made me smile! It's all true apart from the rain. (And I didn't touch the pickled eggs.) LL x :-D

oh yeah! That's an awesome song - that challenge is bringing out some great creativity. I love the chord changes - some unexpected ones in there!

Just in time for Valentine's Day, you old softy, and yes you deserve a break - awesome start to what's apparently not a challenge for you at all! (LL again, on the way back from Brighton...)

Take a breath ... it's my wife's birthday tomorrow, 69 not out .... Love it ... sorry if I put you off ....

Thanks for keeping me company on the train to Brighton. Looking forward to hearing you develop these in time. Liking unplugged Russe - enjoying the rawness and spontaneity in places, making the artistry all the more apparent. LL x

Liking unplugged Russe!

Great song. Was playing and singing along with it like I wrote it. I didn't know the word 'demo' still existed in music. It sure doesn't apply to this tune. Sure as a puffy(singer/songwriter/player) I hear the layers...but at the end of the song it was perfect as it was. I totally get the 'wait until you hear it with everything I hear' composer vibe. But this aint no demo. This is a song. Awesome I'm a wordy bastard considering I'm just your basic''ego driven organ grinder monkey'!

Awesome! Very catchy melodically (complex in a great way) and otherwise. I love the bridge....and the "they don't count anymore"...love that....and nice ending vocal too. Your challenge seems to be going extremely well.

Certainly reminds me of one of my all time Heroes, Roy Harper .....

Nice one. This thing better have a happy ending!!

Wonderful video. Reminded me that I haven't watched all of my Noggin the Nog DVD yet.

Like this a lot.

Well ole Reg certainly is in a bad way... Nice one, love the vocal on this.

Ooo yeah...

Aw this is just gorgeous. Good song well delivered - and some mighty fine arranging, love the sound.

Cool! Rockin and janglin all at the same time. Like it a lot.

Ha! Ha! Laughing out loud here. Brilliant. And a fine acoustic sound, and the slide work is just gorgeous.

When I read the "about" I thought "uh-oh, it ain't gonna grab me" BUT! It's fab, love it :-)

Yeah, slightly different, but still Reg. Like it.

I can hear The Who too on this. Like it. Love the groove.

Oh yeah, what a sound. No messin, couple of guitars and bass... and wow

Ah... another goodie. Vocal, piano, and cello - what a fine combo they make.

Nice one T. Loving that guitar sound

Aw, this is gorgeous... utterly wonderful

Woo! Only just spotted this. Superb, fresh, love it...

Oh I remember this... YUMMY :-)

Oh this hits the spot... Gorgeous restrained sound, bursting with emotion.

Yep. Cute as a button. MORE!!

And this one's FAB. Really glad you posted them.
