This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.

This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…

I agree with Greg -- it is indeed like Paul's recording was made for you. The lyrics ROCK! I dig the mix own of multiple vocal tracks -- great job. Gonna play it again right now!

Nicely done Colleen! Pretty melody and a really resonant situation with different meaning for everyone. Traveling alone is really big idea! Thanks for sharing it.

I was down at the station
Catch the Greyhound to Go My Way
And I heard the loudspeaker
We’ll be leaving some time today
You just Say no thank you
When I ask you to be mine
I’ll be looking for that green light
When I ask you the next…
I don't know how you do it! Another classic!!! That lonesome twang on the guitar is so perfect. And wow! that harp is killer. Love the lyrics! Especially the chorus
Here is my contribution to the latest song writing challenge offered by the Minnesota Songwriters.

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.
Congas, Vintage Bass Cocktail Drum, Bongos, and (of course) Cowbell.

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…

Nice early 80s touch.. Enjoying stuff like this at the most. Great synth
One of my favs. You did a wonderful vocal melody for this tune. This song JAMS!
Ah . . . It's this song that Paul remixed. It has a little more reverb on your voice. It mixes with the music perfectly.
Is this the song that Paul remixed? It sounds good.
I agree with Greg -- it is indeed like Paul's recording was made for you. The lyrics ROCK! I dig the mix own of multiple vocal tracks -- great job. Gonna play it again right now!
Great song, Colleen. Your instincts were spot on with this collab.

this may be your best yet.....I love the mandolin....Greg's guitar is awesome...all around great sound, vocals and lyrics
Great job, guys! Y'all make me want to move to Minneapolis. Is it all that snow that makes y'all such talented musicians and songwriters?
Lots of Fun !!!
