THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
Acoustic tale of revenge. Recorded 2010 on a Boss BR1600CD.

**The Knife - A A J Russe**
A dark and star-less night
Probably driving rain
That's what they think became of me
A foolish walk along the cliff when he was drunk…

GORGEOUS guitar sound. And cool song. VERY cool song.I found the problem round the other way... too much interest in living (well, sleeping) resulted in an unbalanced something or other.
Midday field. I watch the lark, which serenely rises in circles up to dissolve there, forever. He sees no danger around. Why [should] I care?

I recall that in childhood we all watch adventure films (or performances), and here the children…
There is almost no snow this year, it appears for some time from nowhere and immediately disappears. I look at this all out the window, and found myself looking more and more often back at the past experience. Is this a sign of age? Hmm, I certainly…
A worship song for the times you feel hopelessly lost.

Oh Lord I don't know what to do
When I find myself, far away from you
and every prayer always comes back to this
I don't know what to do please pull me through
and I 'm so tired…
I listened on Friday, and I've been trying to figure out what happened so fast... and then seeing jimgoodinmusic's comment "...reflective of the street", on this relisten I ended up stood there with the same "hey what happened?" ... but a passer-by said "I don't really know - it all happened so fast" ...

I hadn't realised Colleen was listening same time... I was off checking out Mary Oliver... but yes, after the initial scratchiness that I got used too, I agree, very quickly the cacophony did seem "normal" to me and even commonplace... and the poem Egrets (I had to look up what an Egret was, I didn't know! I knew the word, but not that it was a white bird) ... that kinda emphasised it... there was magical, but normal, and natural, stuff going on, and even the cacophony itself was natural - as in not necessarily man-made - the thorns and mosquitos...

I wrote this song as a way to process some of the feelings of sadness, dismay, anger, fear and love that were brewing inside my heart this past week. I live in Minneapolis, where the terrible killing of George Floyd occurred, and the subsequent…
I think I remember it? Mighty cool anyways. I'm kinda jealous, though - all my old ones aren't that easy to post here... they're all recorded on pieces of A4 paper, in the metaphorical "shoe-box" (actually, it's not not that metaphorical, it is a box, several actually, they've just never held any shoes)
Instead of chlorine dioxide treatment try sanding you tongue with full grit sand paper.
"Fight Club" effect.
Wanted to keep this as dirty as possible.
Keep safe from the 2nd wave.
I'm liking the kinda sparse but cluttered vibe I'm getting from this. Yep, dirty, that describes it well. And that ominous but bouncy synth motif... Yeah, nice one.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
What a sad tale. I love your voice and your diction is perfect.
Andrew, welcome to Alonetone. Oh love your sound. Man, you're really good. A little gruesome lyrically,but brilliantly well performed.
Great tune.

Oh yeah. This is my favourite one so far. OR... it's the one that fitted my mood best at the time I decide to listen to it? :)

I only really know the Thin Lizzy version... and this one!
Nice one.
It's like there are voices... and I can't quite reach out to hear them.
I'd forgotten what it was like listening to your pieces. Magical.
Wow
That's pretty powerful.
Wow. Haunting sounds.

I read the description and thought "ummmm, ok"... and, indeed, it did start like that for me. But then it was strangely compelling.
I was looking for a word to describe the feel... and Colleen's already got it - "slinky cool".
Very refreshing sound - but the heavy breathing reminds of someone... not sure it's Colleen though! lol
This is still making me tingle. Those first two lines... I want everyone to feel it.

Wow, yes. It's a gorgeous song.
I like both. This one sounds more summery though!
Sounds summery to me.... off to find the other one
