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 :)

Wow!! Utterly wonderful

Yep. Mighty fine.

Oooh yeah. Like it.

I'm loving this accordian playing

Wow, apparently I've listened to this before, but I don't remember... (many thanks to galinka's recent favourites for finding it again :) ) Good song and vocals and all... but on this listen, it's striking me that those guitars are amazing.

And I LOVE this one.

So the gypsies dance to Deep Purple then? Like this one a lot.

Superb - love the chorus. I'm actually one of the ones who heard but decided not to listen. But I can hear that this song and performance express the message almost perfectly. Beautiful song :)

I hadn't read the about while I was listening, and I was thinking the title must be a pun... Love it (the track and the title). Looking forward to hearing the finished version.

Wow. I was listening to your stuff the other day. Completely unlike anything I'm exploring, but something was grabbing me. Hearing this new one made me click "Follow" :)

Like :)

Yep, back for another listen. Fabulous, stark, and beautiful.

Might be a piece a fiction, but I've got one of those pieces of paper somewhere ("it says right here we're not married anymore"), and this kind of sums up some of the emotions that such a piece of paper evokes... lol Nice song :)

Woah Yeah :) Love this. On this one it sounds like you need to find a bassist who thinks/plays like you guys do... I'm too busy unfortunately... and I live too far away... (and I'm not good enough neither) lol

Yeah :)

Wow (big Slade fan here), this is REALLY interesting. I like it a lot. Can't wait to hear the vocals on it.

Brilliant. "How do we know that a promise is anything more than a wish..." Woo This lonely little song needs a lot more attention.

I think this is so good I can't figure out anything sensible to say. I LOVE this song and how you've recorded it.

Oh yeah... love it, my sentiments entirely :)
