or A.K.A. the Caribou Lake song...
I wrote this one for my Dad, who while up at our family cabin in the north woods of MN said there's not enough music about the woods...
My first "one take wonder" - just me and my little Uke - roughing…
I had a wish to sing along with Greg, so he offered me a piece of his Cherry Pie to sing along with... I added a few other bits here and there as well. Thanks Greg!!! This was a fun one for me... added some piano and a teeny bit of percussion....
Nothing beats when the MN songwriters convene. Greg and Colin sure brought some awesome sound to this song at the coffee table to improve the version that I recorded myself earlier this month. It's what I call a TOTAL MAKEOVER.
Thanks guys…
This one is still a bit rough, but I wanted to share and see if anyone has an interest in adding some guitars, bass, other vocal parts for fun. I left the chords in the lyrics below, in case you wanted to collaborate. I hope you enjoy it…
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…

IN MY ROOM
In my room there's no day and there's no night
In my room, just an incandescent light
...hanging from a wire.
In my room there's no hot and there's no cold
In my room,I'm not young. I'm not old
...hanging from a wire…
With lovely Keith Landry. Unfortunately, the studio I had at the time was on its last legs and the recording is a terrible quality, but I've never been able to get the vocal to sound better. Probably because I'm now over the awful thing* I did…
I love hearing these songs from previous RPM years. This one is really amazing. The backing music so perfectly done to match your beautiful and haunting vocals. Wow!
Cat Stevens cover.
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up, well, I think only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun
But never, never, never, never
I never wanted water once
No never, never, never
I listen…
Its been raining all day so why not write a song about a drought....Thanks for listening
The Water wheel stops under the clear blue sky
The sun burns the crops and there all doomed to die
The knowing know the truth and repeat no lies
Hushing…
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.
So, thought it was time to try something a tad more substantial - hence embarked on a Piano Concerto....here is the first movement of my first, in C minor.......
My second for the 2021 RPM is about a sayong Ning Surasiang one of the Brides on Bride at first sight came up with The feels which is to describe the feeling just before falling in love . Thanks for listening
When I first met you you did…

After we talked about this song on the phone, I had to take another listen. *YUP* . . . and *YUP* on both topics !!!!!!!!!
I hope this one makes it on your new album! This is a great song . . . but I think you should fire your harmonizers.
Another masterpiece! Lots of fun playing music around your coffee table.
I can't get over how well you all record live another outstanding tune Colleen...really like the harmonies and your lyrics!!! great job to all

Like a warm hug. Very nice music from Minnesota.
Very nice!
Wow! This just opened up. So cool! Love that bass and backing vox. It's really bouncy and flowing. Awesome!
This song puts me right on a beach. Great theme and imagery...and is that a 6-string? Nothing better for a tropical song than a seagul:)
Beautifl - heartfelt! Wonderful campfire atmoshere.
Great collab excellent
