it's happening, isn't it? This is like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Great

Thanks for listening so closely, Steve! I was definitely going for something more emotional here, so it's cool that you caught that.

Beautiful song, and you put real feeling into it. Well done Tom!

Thanks, Steve! It's been really therapeutic to play around with these Sea Change songs and it's cool you're enjoying listening to that catharsis (not everyone would be so keen on listening to the more emotional stuff, so I appreciate you taking the time to listen!)

A bittersweet and emotional song, and you express it with real feeling Tom. Very nice.

Thanks @theProods! This was a fun collab with Dokdoktor, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Now you're cooking!

Thanks for listening to my Beck covers, Steve! I've been listening to a lot of his Sea Change album lately and I've set up a goal of learning the whole album. I've been pretty busy lately and so recording them has been a slower process than I had initially hoped, but I'm glad you have enjoyed the few songs I've posted so far! Thanks, as always, for your encouraging words!

Like the singing. Beck's songs are a bit melancholic. You perform this very well. Good job!

Nice version Tom. Tone of it sounds great. Suits your style.

Thanks for the kind words, Steve! These last three songs ("Golden Age," "Memory Lame," and "Therefore I Am") are all different kinds of songs for me and I wasn't sure how they'd be received, so I'm glad you liked them!

Lovely vocals. Well performed as usual Tom. I'm sure most of us can relate to this subject.

Another song, not sure who Jim is criticising again. Clever lyrics, and I think you deliver them simply and yet effectively. Good work!

Nice version Tom. Don't know the song or whether it's literally about another person, or religion, or what? It's sad, but I like it.

@sistersavage Thanks so much! I was kind of going for the sort of song you might listen to on your headphones in the dark -- so I'm glad it was received that way.

Smashed it. Great late night feel.

Thanks for the kind feedback, Steve! This one was a bit of challenge as the chords are a bit obscure, but it was a fun one to record nonetheless.

Moody and deep, enjoy the guitar tone and your expressive vocals Tom.

Thanks for the kind feedback, Steve! I enjoyed playing around with lyrics to this one to suit the sentiments that were floating around in my head at the time, so I'm glad that it turned out suiting me 'cause that is what I was going for!

Lovely vocals. Great expression in your voice, this number suits you well, good work Tom!

Thanks, Anna! As you might guess, I'm also a big fan of the minimalism of solo acoustic music. That kind of music is what inspired me to pick up a guitar in the first place.

Thanks, Steve! It's a song I covered from the "Pulp Fiction" soundtrack and I thought its vibe worked well for the new mic/guitar setup I'm trying out.

This song is a nice reprieve from all the "doom and gloom" this month has visited upon many of us. I definitely found myself tapping along with the beat and doing some air guitar (when no one was looking)! Fun stuff, Steve!

High praise comparing this song to John Lennon - he's a huge influence on me and so I'm quite honored...and I think this song turned out pretty well under the circumstances (I sang it following the US election). Glad you enjoyed it and, as always, thanks for stopping by to listen!

I'm not sure if you purposely did this (the title of your song suggests it was purposeful), but it sounds like used the first 30 seconds of Aerosmith's "Walking the Dog" to cook up something new and interesting. Cool stuff!

Thanks, Dok! While I didn't write this song, I appreciate the sentiments of this song too. It works on (at least) two levels: one level is the obvious Ram Dass reference while the other is about loving another. Btw, I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stuff!

Thanks, Dok! I know my style isn’t for everyone, so I do appreciate that some of what I post here resonates with you and that you keep coming back to listen.

@TheProods: As always, thank you for stopping by to listen and to give encouragement; I really appreciate it!

I kinda figured the "Empire Builder" comment was yours, Dok, but didn't want to assume anything! And thank you for the warm words for "Lemon Grove Ave." Cool to have folks like you listening and appreciating what I'm playing!

@Guest: Thanks for the kind words! I always try to go with songs that I can imagine a live audience listening to, so it's cool this song was received that way.

It's like Syd Barrett joined Guns N' Roses for a day to rewrite (and sing) their song "Coma." Cool stuff!

Tapping my toe to the rhythm guitar on this one - you're definitely onto something here!

Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!

Liking the guitar on this one!

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.

Thanks, Colleen! I'm surprised that people are enjoying this one because it is so casually done. I guess it goes to show that simplicity is often the best route.

Sounds like something off an 80s John Carpenter soundtrack. Very cool!

@doktordoktor - Thanks! I know my voice isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I appreciate the feedback. Keeps me motivated to keep playing, recording, and singing.

Thanks so much for stopping by to listen and provide encouraging words, @peppermintsky! I feel like you've been listening to my stuff longer than almost everyone here, so I feel honored that you keep coming back to listen.

Thank you for the kind words, @Eshar!
