A further march down the road in acl's evolution - and one of the many directions we've been dying to get to... it's, ummm, water-y. (And this song is especially dedicated to J Wentz.)
Just stopped by to return the appreciation, but i LOVE this tune!! The sarcastic comments... haven't enjoyed something like that in a while. Just a thought, ever think about swapping the effect of the melody singer and the talking voice? I think it could be an interesting mix. But i am known to be wrong... alot...
were you guys tap dancing in the studio or what? It's so tightly woven into the continuous bass and rhythm tracks. And then it follows with all the layered strings... yeah, this one for sure. ;)
Good GOD - You have captured Indiana Rockers dead on! OMG. I feel like I went back home and couldn't escape the damned car radios at Frisch's Drive Thru. Yikes.
I couldn't stop laughing. I mean howling. I mean, oh hell. I'm hurt. Hurt. Wen's in heaven. Hilarious. And tight. Outstanding (as usual).
I was thinking about Haiti...
i don't know what to say
i don't know how to feel
when i'm way over here
and things are going well
my house is standing still
my friends are still alive
the smell of spring is in the air
and i just can't connect…
Lyrics influenced by a conversation with a friend whose daughter was in a really bad way. Kind of set the mood for large parts of the challenge for me this year.

Emotions get the best of me sometimes and this is what comes of it....
Gotta pour out my heart.
i loved you i did
but i had to let you go
and i chose again and again
to let it die
i died again and again
a love so strong
a pain so…
Part one of a mini-musical within the album, that never quite felt finished...but we love the first chapter!
*update* this is now an official track on the album...poss. our feat. track!
How good it is when I feel whole, complete, not lacking anything at all.
And i feel this way when I am with you...
nothing needs to be said, i can just sit and be still.
This is a good place for me to be....it does me good to remember this.
God around me
God within me
there's nothing i need to fear
always remember you're here
Well, this is number 10, and with only 8 days left, I think we may be calling it on this one. There are alot of scraps left over, and even a few experiments left to showcase, including a three part duet! but alas, time is escaping into the void…

Hypnotic.
This is an absolute classic. C-l-a-s-s-i-c.
I absolutely love this, especially the wonderful interlude of clapping and tapping. 12 minutes is nothing, it speeds by too quickly!
I really dig this whole album
What a great melody!
The piano and strings are a lovely combination...both are very emotive instruments. A lovely piece.
Been a while since I heard this. Why did I not fav it last time?
Very peaceful. Don't know how I missed this one of yours
Full of imagery. I love songs that paint me a picture.
very pretty.
