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 .....

How come I feel like I'm back in the Court of Henry VIII, with a merry minstrel strumming his stuff ..... love it ....

GEEZZZZZZZ! Your lyrics always just slay! Fun to imagine all your arrangements moving about in your head. It sounds like a major league anthem in the making!

Good one. Keep going, you can do it!

That’s a great sounding demo Andrew! I share your thoughts on RPM. I did it for several years, but now I would rather take my time.

Love it - also the era it is from! I hear the Bron-Y-Aur Stomp but only because you mention it (that is one of my favourite Zeppelin songs). Fun and great musicianship truly.

Ah! I now read your post....that challenge seems more zen :). I also like that emphasis on the song writing part. You're off to a fabulous start! PS thanks for listening to my stuff - much appreciated. ONWARD WE GO! lol

Wow - glad I found you. I'll chime in with the other comments - that is an amazing demo! The raw guitar and voice gives it an intimate feeling (befitting of the song). Well done! Now I'm listening to the other song that came up....really professional!

Well it does it for me, and I find myself agreeing with all that you say ...

Very nice Andrew - and the edge provided by ‘live’ is great for the song 👍👍

I love the raw quality of your vocals and just your guitar. Really powerful indeed. Your lyrics touch that place of remembrance of a long ago friend. What might they be like had they stayed around…. Love it!!

Still one of my fav songs of so many awesome song you’ve written. Your writing is absolutely amazing!

Rats on the long message! I just figured it out… it was bleeped away when one song ended and the next popped up mid typing by me. All hail Taylor Swift!!! I hope you and yours are doing okay during these crazy times.

Glad you're sharing more of your art. I haven't been able to listen in until just recently. Best of luck.

WoW! Rock on! Great crisp guitar. You must come over some time and make one of my guitars sound like that.resting break...huge.

Added to my favorite playlist...perfect driving music.

Top notch guitar playing and production arrangement. Great stuff. 'nick of time' very British alleyway:)

Absolutely fabulous! Your lyrics always mesmerize… wonderful to hear your amazing music again. You’ve been missed indeed.

Woooo! Another powerful one from you (I think I've missed a few). Your stuff always seems to speak to something in what I've got going on... I've had a lot going on last few months... this speaks into that in a kind of surprising unexpected way. Many thanks.

Oooh yeah. Saw the notification for this yesterday, that's why I popped in, to check it out. This is a mighty fine "just a little ditty"

Oh yeah, I'm with JMT, I really like this. I haven't been doing much, if any, listening on here for ages... popped in for a moment, saw his comment and hit play. Really glad I did

Yeah, like it.

Strangely hypnotic with the repeating note and then the tinkles and wotnot. Works really well for me.

Wooo... Digging this one.

Wow!

I've explained to Mrs R what Skynet is... Mrs R has explained to me what Speak And Spell is. We now count ourselves as enlightened... and sincerely hope it's not actually based on a true story!

Oh yeah. Lovely song. "The right person will arrive on time..." yep :)

Cool song. But, if you've been sat on it for a few months, she's probably forgotten you! OR.... yes! ...maybe she's sat on a similar song herself?

I'm playing a slow catch up game here... oh wow... my goodness... this one is gorgeous.

Yeah, it works well, even without Eddie Vedder... I get exactly the same sort of problem- in the dream about my latest one, it was Taylor Swift singing - it took me quite a bit to get over the initial disappointment when I found that my own voice didn't have quite the same effect as the version I'd dreamt.

Yep, made me happy too. I LOVE the lyrics. I hit fave just for the coaster/toaster thing, made me smile... then the two lines that followed... superb

Oh yeah, the guitarmonies here are definitely awesome - they sound really good. I'm with you, sucker for any guitar harmonies, but these have got a bit of that celtic vibe that kinda lifts them above others.

Cool track - love the solo at the end. You've got a Standard 50s?? Which colour? I've been oggling them. The guitarist from my old band got a 60s a few months back in "Unburst" which is my favourite but they don't do it on the 50s (and I want the fatter neck). Anyway, escapes me now, but for some reason I got a Flying V instead! (which I LOVE, actually)

I misread that as "tropical" ... I do need to get my eyes tested ... so I found it wasn't quite as cheery as I'd first imagined! Cool tune, and sentiments I share sometimes.

Yeah, that works for me. Cool track. And yeah, a great title.

Don't know the original, but I'm digging this. Mighty cool vocal.

Digging the space on this one.

Aw yeah - this is killer. Loving the Robin Trower / James Dewar vibe in the guitars and bass.
