"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
Singing In The Silence

just WOW!!!! This is one of my favorites you've done. Such a beautiful picture you paint. Love the instrumentation, and killer Irish Whistle. This one sets the bar high!!!!
Volcano was one of the first tracks that the Proods uploaded to Alonetone, it was fun because it features the Prood gals who aren't always available to jam.
This is a beautiful emotional song telling the sad story of the singer. It describes the emotions of the singer in a precise way.

Chris Tune / Toms Lyrics
I heard you singing from the roof tops
saw you swinging in the trees
tripping on a cough drop
dealing your disease
I watched you watching from the washroom
heard you tumble down my stairs
passed out…
This one is still in progress, Jon the guitarist sent me a riff which i stuck together to get a kinda structure...so this is take 1....
I'm gonna kill a Mockingbird
That mockingbird mocks me with your name
I'm still not over you and it's causing…
My nephew Spencer or (SZC) as he goes by wrote this song entirely as we were talking about the sad news of Robin Williams passing in a conversation last year and how it felt. So he asked me to do the vocals and guitar.. He will be joining alonetone…
In case you are in the mood today to kick some ass with Mike and me.

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
remembering…

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.

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!
