On this beach made of sand and shells
and broken hearts
as with so many things in this life
it ends where it starts
And like the waves that will roll over me
you take away everything that I see
So I walk to the place where the sand

haha yeah, i know...i love puppies too. But the reason i chosed this title it's because it is music seen by the eyes of a cat. I love dogs, but cats doesn't...So this band find so funny to make "cat music"
thanks for the comment
I'm still getting around to re-upping everything I took down last October.... this is one of them, and if I recall correctly, this is the track that was the impetus for Paul & I to start collaborating. (Something I've been missing a lot…

I’ll make my exit on the wind
Nevermore to pretend

Yeah, I’m good, so good
At doin’ everything I should
To convince you
That I’m okay for today
An’ I won’t crawl out of my skin
I’ll just pretend

Dedicated to my friend Paul Lennon.
Once You asked me
If I could see the end
It's okay to tell the truth
I don't want you to pretend
And I said I would not lie
But I don't believe it ends
It goes on And on Forever Forever
It goes on…

I love the way the intro drifts in like the sea, and then your smooth vocals kiss our ears (like the ocean kissing our toes...but perhaps I've just taken the analogy too far...)

I thought Olivia might sing this one, but she said my version was "awesome" and I will have to take her word on that. I made up lyrics which seemed as if they might be suitable for her to sing, but I don't really know what they mean…
Pick it up first thing in the morning
Looking down when the day is dawning
Takin it along from room to room
Bright icons on a tiny screen
Means more to you than me
I’m hoping you notice pretty soon
It’s clear, and I fear
It’s understandable…
Worked with a couple of college interns last year who'd never heard of any band I like. I felt like an asshole bragging about going to shows that happened 20 years before they were born.
Lyrics:
Oldie Bear was there at woodstock

Like the bass line on this one especially. Really fun album, Dave. I like hearing you do different things with your voice. I'd like to hear some more vocal experimentation from you! Excellent RPM!
I wrote this song for my brother, who'd recently had surgery. Yes, I know it's long. I cut something close to three minutes out of it...FWIW it's supposed to butt right up against the next track "Oldie Bear" but you can't really do that in an…
A post on the Facebook RPM group featured a quote from an aging Dave Grohl complaining about Kids These Days and Their Terrible Music, pointing out that the current number-one song was about someone's butt. So, I wrote a song about my butt…
I wrote this from the point of an old person, such as myself, but my vocals came out so bad that I had to get Olivia to sing it for me.
Lyrics:
Looking over a modern meme
It's the worst that I've ever seen
Everything looks a little strange…
There is actually a LOT of goose poop at my office park, but I opted to use the joke title referring to my favorite Beach Boys song.
FWIW, the drum loops came from https://www.organicdrumloops.com/
Woah, this is a woozy little number.... maybe it's the goose poop vapors going to my head. Very Weenish, especially when the vocals come in!! Nice one.
This one is the only track that I am a little disappointed in. I thought it would be a banger and a lead-off track, but I had trouble getting it to exactly where I thought it would be. I think the problem is that I am nowhere near as good a singer…
This song features my first attempt at recording myself playing a drumkit. I only did four takes, sorry.
Lyrics:
They’re gonna say I stole this song
And I knew it all along
They own the copyright on C, G, C, G, D
They’re gonna sue the…
I asked Olivia to name something (in three or four syllables) that causes her consternation. Her answer, "Society". Sometimes she follows my scratch vocal line when I record a demo for her, this time she just let it rip, and it is probably the…
This song is for everyone who has failed at their Assertiveness Training.

Ahoy, shipmates, it's that there time of year again, when yer ready to hang over the lee rail on account of all them insipid Christmas songs they've been blatting at you everywhere you turn ever since Halloween, if not before.
Well, I've got…
This is a rough cut, but I like it. Here are the lyrics:
TOMORROW WILL BE YOU
It’s been a long time since I saw you
I’m at a loss for words
But when I heard the news
I went straight to your room
There’s no point in looking…
> Uncle Paul is still kickin’ it.
I was beginning to wonder! :-)
Good to hear you. Reminds me of Blue Öyster Cult's Revolution by Night period. Thant's damn good stuff Geas.
Rock on.

combing the shore and this beauty shows up...
haha yeah, i know...i love puppies too. But the reason i chosed this title it's because it is music seen by the eyes of a cat. I love dogs, but cats doesn't...So this band find so funny to make "cat music" thanks for the comment
this is a sleeping giant.
This is brilliant mate. Keep putting them up mate. You missed collaborating and we missed your tunes. Cheers.
Beautiful mate really nice.
You have a great sound happening mate, great vocals. Brilliant.
Great vocals mate, this is a top track which ever way you do it.
Thanks man.
As many times as I've listened to this song, played this song, recorded this song, it still chills me. Refreshingly cool!!!
Beautiful and captivating. You slay me brother.
So passionate and meaningful. Hit after Hit of solid gold tunes.
I was just listening to some of your unpublished tunes and came across this one. I'm glad you uploaded it. PAL
Beautiful song.
I love the way the intro drifts in like the sea, and then your smooth vocals kiss our ears (like the ocean kissing our toes...but perhaps I've just taken the analogy too far...)
Cool acoustic song. I like the lyrics and the mended closure too. (makes me think about oil at the moment though)
Great vox/lyrics, as usual.
Heartfelt vocal. Very nice track :) w;-)
This is still the most played song on my play list. It never, ever, gets old.
Good one.
Yes! Very nice indeed to hear this again

Really digging the bass on this one... and slide guitar too!!
Great opener, Dave. This and the changes of this one actually reminds me of some old school Blue Rodeo.
Like the bass line on this one especially. Really fun album, Dave. I like hearing you do different things with your voice. I'd like to hear some more vocal experimentation from you! Excellent RPM!
Dave, I think this is one of your best songs & best vocals, love the effect on the guitar break too.
LOL, TMI. I actually wish I could favorite this one twice!
Dude I can totally hear this as a Go-go's song. Another excellent vocal by Olivia!
Woah, this is a woozy little number.... maybe it's the goose poop vapors going to my head. Very Weenish, especially when the vocals come in!! Nice one.
More excellent lyrics, and I actually like the vocal blend. Only halfway though this album, and I'd say it's your best ever!
Great lyrics, Dave! And you play the drums better than I ever will.... keep it up!
Wow, what a great vocal from Olivia!! Great arrangement too, Dave. Definitely one of your best.
This one is really great, Dave!
Nice harp!!
Too much, and well done! Yar aughta post em wurds, ya scurvy dawgs!
great vibe my bros
Ready for some more, Nick. Whatcha got?
Tried to comment, but it disappeared....
> Uncle Paul is still kickin’ it. I was beginning to wonder! :-) Good to hear you. Reminds me of Blue Öyster Cult's Revolution by Night period. Thant's damn good stuff Geas. Rock on.
This one ended well before I was ready... more of this please! Well done & thanks for sharing. ~Michael
This is deeply felt and as other have noted, quite thought provoking. Thanks for sharing, Nick. Hope you are doing well.
Dude, I love it. I want to hear more of your creations!
