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 .....

And the stories you come up with for songs - amazing.

Yeah, me too. Wonderful voice. Love the music you make with it.

WOW! Song and performance SO immediate :) I gotta go right now - but I'll be back for more. Faved and followed...

There's something about this that really grabs me... truly inventive idea for a song. Yep, it really is all the same, isn't it?

Another goodie. Nice groove and the backwards guitar sound on top kind of eases you along... And a drum solo!! :)

Awww... you just haven't managed to post one I don't like yet! Love the sound, the vocal delivery. But, woo, the imagery in the lyrics... and this one is just fabulous.

Oh, yeah this wonderful. Really well pitched, could've been so over-sentimental but it's not. Love it.

Oh yeah, nice one, very nice one... Liking these collabs from you guys :)

Love that bo diddley groove. Rockin

Oh those refrains are brilliant lol - I wasn't going to fave this... but that last one got me...

Yes, this would fit in Les Mis no problem lol... Love it.

Oh yeah, I'm with Jimbo... superb vocals... And I like songs about the missus (my missus didn't realise all mine were about her until she read the "abouts" on here!! lol)

Yeah, like this one. Don't think it's missing electric - and that organ is mighty fine

Yep... like the remix :) Song itself shines through more now.

Hey, everyone's getting into P90s! (Mine are in an Explorer - kind of an incongruous mix, but sounds great when when I can get up the strength to put it on!) The SG sounds FAB!! And it's a very cool song... all sentimental guitarists know exactly what you mean :)

Like it. I kinda know that feeling... :)

This sounds even better this time... god knows what my soundcard was doing, but it sounded like you'd mixed it REALLY hot... Laptop has cooled down now and it sounds much more like I'd have expected lol Love it.

I've got Sticky Fingers, but haven't listened to it very often... so I hardly know this song... I like this version a lot.

Cool rolling groove - nice one guys... Can't get my missus NEAR the mic... vaguely jealous... lol

Oh this is just fantastic...
