"It’s hard to see the difference
Between the twilight and the dawn."
What a perfect picture!
...and the person I wrote COLORS for has never heard the song. Do you think I should tell her about it?

Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too

This tune is one of my top ten favorites of all time.
It's originally performed by The Mike Curb Congrigataion and used as a music track for the movie "Kelly's Heroes" starring Clint Eastwood, Telly Salavas, Caroll O'Conner, Don Rickles, Donald…
Hello Friend!
So good to hear your voice here. I hope you are getting the energy and love sent to you, your girls and your lady. You are missed here very much. All my best!
Just listening in my office to this awesome playlist! Sometimes I forget and think I am back in college, listening to the B52's, and then sometimes other great bands of the era. Thanks for being the playlist to my Monday!
I dream of peace and a million just like me... what an awesome lyric. This was a really bright and happy song, even though the world isn't quite there yet! Great song!!
A collab on lyrics from the other-side......
Before i stumble and fall
Falling back through memories
I don't expect a soft landing
I'm staring at the tumbleweeds
remembering it all
i'm remembering it all
before I stumble and fall

My tribute to Anne Boleyn, the first queen to be publicly executed in England. I used some of the poetry she wrote during her imprisonment in the chorus. An innocent, incomparable woman.
Just heard this one for the first time. Wow! This is so beautiful. What a great concept for the song as well. I love it when the heavy guitars come in! Such a cool counterpoint to your superb vocals
Using a drum program, I wanted to incorporate the 'horns' from the Roland GR-55 (ala 'Chicago') so I began layering guitars to accompany the 'horns'. This is what I ended up with.

This tune began my Instrumental journey and starts my 1st CD "Escape to Clifford". Using acoustic guitars and voicings, I hoped to create a musical soundscape.
Before I began my recording projects, I had put down a drum track, along with a bass track and walked away. Months later, I was recording with a Roland GR-55 gtr/synth system and started picking out sounds that I felt belonged in the theme and…
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
John and i are in the process of trying to write a blues album and here is our first attempt to throw at your ears. Hope you enjoy! Johns musicianship is Bloody excellent i just hope i can keep up...

More amazing vocals! Very pretty song!
I like the arrangement ..your voice is getting better and better all the time ..great job Colleen
Beautiful song Colleen!
About COLORS: With all this talk of harassment I'm reluctant.
"It’s hard to see the difference Between the twilight and the dawn." What a perfect picture! ...and the person I wrote COLORS for has never heard the song. Do you think I should tell her about it?
beautiful & coming from someone who works the graveyard shift ...I relate to the contrast of the difference
Thanks. This is beautiful, welcome back. I've been thinking about that difference a lot lately.
Yeah that's you doing good. Everyone likes that minor chord on the lyric Dawn, I do too its so memorable
A nice melody and good lyrics. Your style and voice remind me of Judy Collins!
Beautiful! love the chorus
This is just lovely
nice
It seems like it's been forever. I'm being redundant, but I really love the simplicity of these compositions. Unadulterated music.
Oh yeah! Nice chord change on "dawn". Perfect lilting song. Sounds great up here on the North Shore.
The Euk is like Ear candy. Great vox/lyrics too Colleen
sweet, real, authentic, sincere, resonant. Thanks for sharing this.
absolutely wonderfullest
very nice. It reminded me a little of that 60's song "Beat of a Different Drum".
I never get tired of your beautiful voice.
Opppps must log in to do this Alonetone thing!
