Acoustic love song. Written and recorded between Christmas 2010 and the New Year.
I'd just finished recording Elizabeth's Room and was tooling up to record a pop-rock song when this little beast popped out of nowhere, almost perfectly formed…
A few months back we had a "Beatlesfest" on songcrafters.org.
I contributed this and Yesterday.
This one's a bit of a departure for me. Not the song itself - it's been one of my favourites ever since I was tiny (I preferred Robin Gibb's…

Acoustic blues. Recorded in 2005. I was trying to record something else, can't remember what, and the missus was going out. She had cyclist Lance Armstong's book, or was talking about it. Sounded like a great title for a song as well as his book…

Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
Andy... came over from the songcrafters site... Man you got a killer voice. Your production is out of this world. Lyrics are spot on. I can't even put a comparison to your style... very unique. Great music... thanks for turning me on to you jukebox.

Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.

I think this is a Perfect song!
I am a fan,

Lyrics:
Oh little girl won't you tell me what you were looking for when you came to this place?
You've got friends, but not many of them like to be seen.
Oh…
I hadn't realised you had a new one up - I forgot to click follow last time (sorted now lol)... jaraimondimusic turned me on to this one.
With him all the way - why ain't you signed? What is the world at? They could sell this stuff...
Hell, if I had a record company I'd be sending the boys round...
Superb song, superb arrangement, superb singing... superb.
Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
Aww... how does you make your strat sound like that? lol
Mine used to sound like that but I seem to have mellowed. I'm going to have to refind this vibe.
Now, do you have version of Stone Free hiding in the vaults? If so, I want to hear it.
One Last Christmas 2011 – SKEEN

A time for forgiveness, a time to pray…
You say that our future’s all but gone, mmm
Gone are the thoughts of our world as one
You say it’s all over; forget everyone, yeh

This Guy's In Love With You Skeen Remix 120728(Burt Bacharach)

Yes I'm in love, who looks at you the way I do?
When you smile, I can tell we know each other, very well
How can, I show…
Lionel the hermit crab - Skeen Remix 120607
Lionel the hermit crab lives by the sea, oh yeh
He looks a little bit like you, a little bit like me,
Lionel the hermit crab doesn't have no friends, oh no
He'll live his life alone in his shell…
I wondered what the "last" one would be like... can't top the rest can it?
Yes.
This is utterly, utterly brilliant. It had me in hysterics, the "spare wimin" (the wife's friends over for Pimms) actually looked in from the conservatory to see what I was doing. Not entirely sure how she explained it, I'll find out later...
Another Lover - SKEEN 110204
Skeen Remix 120608
How I wish I could tell, why my heart seems to swell into a restless state of worry,
But it seems right now, there's just no way how,
It's impossible to say I'm sorry..
There's a look in your…
You don't even know me - Skeen Remix 120611
Met you in a cocktail bar
That look you gave me from afar
Made me wonder if we'd share
A little fun and some Alpine air
Made me wonder if we'd share a lifetime
You're my life-line
I'd like…
Sensory Overload - SKEEN 110204
Remix 130401
Don't you know, there's a reason why we're here...
Such a show, but situations are never clear...
How do we find, a better future?
How do we mend, such a broken past?
Free to laugh at what…
Kiss you goodbye – SKEEN 110422
Skeen Remix 120606
Verse 1:
I kick off my shoes though I feel like a run
I tried to go to work but the work’s all done
I wanna cut it out,
but all that I can think about is you, on - ly you
Always on…
Another one! A lovely song.
And I haven't mentioned the superb musicianship and clarity of these recordings yet.
Might as well do it on this one.
The musicianship and clarity of the recordings are... er.. superb!

My wife will love this. I won't show it to her yet, we have enough problems with Christmas songs chucking my rock CDs off the stereo by about late October anyway lol
La la land , by David Bevan and Tiggy Acworth
When you’re in lala land the sky is always blue,
Yeh in between here and never land is something quite untrue,
CHORUS
You’ll amaze as you gaze into your imagination,

WOW!
I'm obviously about to fave all your stuff if this anything to go by lol
Inventive, melodic, and extremely fun to listen to. And a superb voice.
Faved and followed :)

This is a lil tune I had written over fifteen years ago. It is one of my favorite progressions and I figure in the near future to record a full band arrangement with vocals. This is just a ruff take working out a melody over the changes.
This song was inspired by a long walk....
Lyrics:
Down by the river, down by the shore we go
The moon above cast a beautiful glow
We walked around talking through the night
I can’t help but think how it felt right
Hey Constance, don’t you feel…
I keep trying to comment this, but it keeps disappearing into the ether...
Obviously there's a "Gushing Bullsh1t" filter on the comment engine on alonetone lol.
I'll tone it down then - This is brilliant. And the way you sing her name makes you want to meet her. Love it to pieces.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff

Very cool. I like the groove...really relaxed. I dig. Vocal is bad ass.
Nice tale beautifully played guitar
What remains, what will be - don't write down but to remember, but to sing. Live with them and with them go...
I like this feeling, and very well played : nice track

I like this a lot. The vocal is incredible, love it
Nice one. Great story-telling. I love the laid back voice and delivery.
Well, while I've got the wife's attention for music, I thought I'd play her this one as well... Mrs R verdict - Stunning.
OH NO! I couldn't resist playing Mrs Russe this one. Apparently it's about time to put the tree up now.... Sigh...
And she's actually singing along to this one (gulp) lol
My wife loves this too. "I like this song anyway, but this is REALLY good"

Sheeesh... lol At first, I thought "ah, here's one I don't need to favourite" - but you got me with the chorus...
Sigh...
I'm running out of words... Sensory overload kinda sums it up, actually...
Utterly wonderful. Spine tingling listening. And WHAT a vocal performance.

Awww, I LOVE this. Fine song obviously... But it's a wonderful and fabulous rendition of it.
Oh this is beautiful listening. Might just be working out changes and melody, but it stands as it is. Very relaxing.
