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…

INFATUATION UNREQUITED
They say it's just infatuation
I only wish that it was true
Infatuation unrequited
feels like love to me for you
And then they say, "Silence is golden,"
and I don't know what to do
The Autumn leaves the branches…
Geas sent me this tune for National talk like a pirate a day so we took it down the cellar and luckily Robert Newton was down there so we got him up on the stage and got him to do this little number......Hoping Yee enjoy eye arrh…

Okay this is killer!!!! I was also expecting a spoofer song for your Pirate submission, you surprise us all with this amazing tale... Beautiful and a bit scary (especially the teeth in the cup!) Talk about swinging for the fences. LOVE IT!!!!!!
Sorry I missed this one earlier in the month. It's a real beauty. Love the flowy feel to this. Feel like I'm sitting on the back of a car, listening while the ocean is off in the distance...
EVERYTHING
Everything you know or think you know
Everything you know is wrong
Life ain't no hootenanny
and you don't have to sing along
You can laugh and you can mumble
You can hold your breath
Take a little piece of my heart now honey…
It was cold just for one moment, memories flow imposed on each other as whimsical mosaics that didn't seem his own. Was it the dog called Monty, or ...
All around full of crystal icy droplets hanging on the trees, the sun is shining through the branches and there is no-one around. I'm such a jolly one still believe in love.

THE LESSON
I saw her in a music store in Fort Worth, Texas
I'd driven in to buy some strings
It was like getting hit by a little fist in my solar plexis
when she said, “Can you help me tune this thing?”
She had a smile. A thin disguise…

Turn the lights of when you go
You take the pain

He Leads Me Home by Tom Brandow
From the first time I fell, till the last time I’ll fall
Jesus is there to lead me home.
From the first breathe I took, till the last one I’ll take
Jesus is there to lead me home.
He Leads Me Home, He…

I decided to pick a few chords at random, just like that, wrote them down and then somehow tried to make a melody with it, no idea how, but it worked :-) I then added some lyrics et voilà...here's the result. A quick "just for fun" project. I…

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
I stopped by for a little listen / Primer . . . getting ready for Thursday night!
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:)

Just listened for the first time. Delicious and moody... Will be back to listen to more. Good tune.
Love the melody and harmonies on this one! Good toe tapping this morning

Love your voice. What a great story.
Cool style on this one Johnny! Love it!
Really cool vocals! Like this one!
Up near the Temprance right now... Came back for another listen to this lovely song
This one is a catchy...make me want to dance tune!
You have such a rich voice. Lovely
Digging the combined feel of the instrumentation with the sound of the waves. Soothing and hypnotic especially when the seagulls make their entrance
Cool vibe on this one! Feels retro
Oh wow! I just listened and remember you playing this last time around the coffee table. This is one of my all time favorites of yours!
This one is really great. Love the visuals.... Feel the desert heat
