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…

One after another . . . Strong lyrics and a great melody. Excellent!
I see you decided to put Laural & Hardy's version out of its mystery. Good choice. We were making it much more complicated than it needed to be.

Sitting around your coffee table has been a lot of fun!

We wait, we count days, hours, minutes to the expected. With desire, with anxiety, with apprehension, with calm. Do we live during the count, in the intervals between events that we're waiting for, one after another? Probably, something unconscious…
Reading a book
From a tabula rasa, with the title that appeared at birth, and until the end I am reading the book. A book of life, with color and black and white pictures, with joyful or banal or miserable text, with unfinished verses and some…
We have that same Grumman! We keep having to put pine tar on the rivets as it’s a leaker after 50 years in Northern MN. I agree! It’s the kind of thing that shorter people do! Awesome song 💚
Wrote this for Matt & Aaron who own Rhombus Guys Pizza in Fargo, Grand Forks and Mentor MN where I have performed a few times. Hoped they would put it on their website, but they didn't. It's tough being a songwriter!

This is my contribution to the Song Writing Challenge: Write a song about "First Date".
Written for Minnesota Homebrew Radio Show / Pioneer Radio 90.1 Thief River Falls.
Here's another awesome song! Love your guitar playing on the break.... I think you've been secretly laughing in the corner on some of my recent first dates. You've got this nailed!!!! Great singing too!
A Christian musician who worked with inmates at a juvenile prison told me a lot of these people had never heard a Bible story … much less of Jesus. I decided then to start doing more spiritual tunes.
P.S. I was having a totally crappy morning, in a bit of funk-o-rama. Thanks for helping me remember how fun it is to sing anything at all when you're in need of a boost! You're awesome!
Comments on Colleen Dillon's stuff
Your voice is getting better and better Colleen I love this one a lot really good lyrics
I would love to add a few twiddles on this great song but I don't have the luxury of spare time at the minute. Stands up very nicely on it's own.
Rough Raw Great

Lovely chorus - such a great combo of the lyrics and the melody.

Magnificent! I could have this on repeat all day long.
Like watching nature’s beauty unfold during an autumn sunrise. This is amazing.
