never need to convince myself
I always knew
surrounded by you
I am at peace where I am
can you say it too
the past is a clue
stop waiting, for things to change
just change, anything that you want
change, anything that you…

it's all you know
so why don't you show me
just how it's done
i'm mesmerized
the way that you lie
mostly to yourself
as if you're someone else
it's killing you
these things that you do to
simply remain
not breaking ground…

kiss me softly in the evening light
and like the breeze, i'll be blown away
linger longer if you have the time
and whisper truly that you want to stay
how long, oh eternity

forever's just a word it…

farewell my concubine
there's no need to get the door
but i'm bored
waiting for your big surprise
I can't wait for tomorrow
for a heart to appear
my dear
and by then you know i'll be gone
there are no words left
no convincing…

sigh
waiting through the night
but you're not coming over
thought you were my lover
same
every night and day
every single moment
now you have to own it
sighing, the emptiness
the last caress, fading away
crying, the tears…

just a shell remains

What no comments? This one works for me. Love the lyrics... Actually, I'm wondering whether, like me, you were watching the winter olympics while writing? All sorts of stuff snuck into my lyrics, inspired by the coverage in the background. And when the games finished, the ideas dried up for a day or two for me - almost like I'd relied on them. Anyways, remembering how I was feeling those couple of weeks, I can kinda see how this one might have had the same thing going on in the background.

down goes the sun

My first RPM cover of 2011. This one is "Like This" by The Missed Connections. I seem to have taken a darker turn with the song than Amelia did. It wasn't intentional, but it seems to be what I do when I cover her songs.

Could you understand

Would it become more clear

Would it ease your fears
Screaming at the top of my lungs
If I scream louder
Will my point get…

My take on Gumbo's Keep Your Eye On The Spot, one of many excellent tracks from his RPM2011 album 'Cat's Moustache'. It's something of a departure from the original, though I was trying to retain an element of the gospel so hopefully its soul…

A slightly destructive children's song... But I suspect that many of you have tried some of the things mentioned.

i don't know if i ever told Tess that's her sampled vox ringing out through the whole tune. the funny thing was she took my song out of 5, and i put hers into 5. we're silly like that.
"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…
new track from "the Hardest Blow"

Comments on angie fights crime's stuff
Dang, brother. This is OUTSTANDING.
Agree with Will and Andy - a fabulous, eclectic, moody page turner of an album. One to return to again and again.
Anthem!
Awesome - absolutely love the arrangement and vocal layers in the chorus lift it to a new level.
Bitter sweet overload, my bitter sweet overlord.
Hot fave so far - haunting and brilliant!
Cool retro feel to the song-writing. Late night radio.
Angie Fights The Horrible Few Weeks I Was Having And Makes Everything Lovely.
Breezy opener - lovely to hear some fresh Angie!
Yep. awesome album. You never disappoint, but I think this one feels like a new high for me. Nice one, well done.
This one dragged me back from the work window. Yes, love it.
Oh yeah...
What no comments? This one works for me. Love the lyrics... Actually, I'm wondering whether, like me, you were watching the winter olympics while writing? All sorts of stuff snuck into my lyrics, inspired by the coverage in the background. And when the games finished, the ideas dried up for a day or two for me - almost like I'd relied on them.

Classy (I'm running out of superlatives). I'm digging this album.
This grew on me. Love the chorus, I think that's what did it for me.
What can I add that hasn't been said already? (Dang, Riff, Wow) ... digging it.
Whoa! What an opener. It was cool as it started, then the band kicked in. Love it.
Wow... awesome album from AFC. Great songwriting, reflective and introspective lyrics, great musicianship. Love the overall moodiness of the album.
Love, love, love this track. Awesome middle eight, very Cure-like.
Catchy vibe yet heartbreaking lyrics.
Comments made by angie fights crime
nicely done.
i love this.
I'm in awe of your mixing skills, you should produce all of my albums please. I love the vibe on this one.
wow, this is different.
it's really about my anger management problems.
i actually had the volume turned pretty low to record this, it sounds big because of my huge nuts.
phat!
this song is perfect, but i'm going to cover it anyways.
NICE.
I'm a tool, I forgot all about this. Sounds GREAT!
what makes this song stand out even more is that it's about me. :(
this is perfect.
smokin something alright
i don't know if i ever told Tess that's her sampled vox ringing out through the whole tune. the funny thing was she took my song out of 5, and i put hers into 5. we're silly like that.
i played this in college. fun.
what a weird song, what was i thinking?
it's no joke.
i agree, it passes the honda stereo test.
somebody, and i don't care who, needs to admit, that this song, kicks some serious ass.
i just uploaded a new version of this song, i think i got the vocal mix right!!!!
