Great song for a great instrument!

Groovy.

Colleen, thank you for your kind words. I count you as a part of what I like to think of as the Easy Folk gang, along with Greg Connor, Mark Imsdahl, Steve Krell, Terry Brown, Roger Harris, Ron Rouch, Big Time Operator, Paul Lennon, James Michael Taylor, and several other good people on AloneTone who have found their way into my heart and mind. AloneTone is huge, with literally HUNDREDS of member musicians. But if you go to the site's home page, click on "Artists" and then "dedicated listeners," you'll find me in 1st place. My other three profiles on AT are also on that first page. Add them all together and you will note that I take AT seriously, and I've come to know who out of the hundreds are particularly special artists to follow, not just for their talent but for their heart. There are some on AT who are mind-blowing musical geniuses, but who will never thank you for a comment and never play your music. Then there are those who may not be particularly awesome, but they'll play every song you post. As you may have heard, I'm not suppose to be in this world much longer -- I've already lived beyond my doctor's prediction -- and with what extra days I'm blessed I've been dedicating to AT as a listener. And when I go, all I have to leave the world is my music. I want people to play my music when I'm gone, as a way of keeping me alive. And I can't want that without lending my own ear to others while I'm here. But there's a lot of music on AT and only so many hours a day to play any of it. But I know who on AT appreciates the listen, and who doesn't care if I listen or what I think or even if I exist. So I dedicate my time and ear to those who do care. People like you. And when I find AT people who care, people like you, in my mind I add them to my Easy Folk gang. Welcome to the gang. It's a blast having you in the mix.

I liked what Big Time Operator did with your vocal track. Great voice indeed.

Delightful!

Lovely lyric. Really sets the scene. "Lost in this canyon Sun upon my face" The expression of hope and longing...

The harp is a very nice touch.

Thank you for everything :) that was the first collaboration i have had since being on alonetone! I'm just like a kid I guess, I was wondering if you have any songs that I could help you with the instrumentals to? I do alot of styles well thag I haven't posted yet, Songwriter styles and acoustic guitar with piano. just wanted to stop by and say thank you again and GREAT JOB :D looking forward...

This is very cool. I dig it.

Love the guitar and mandolin jam and vocal ensemble! NIce!

Some great beats here that go well with your lovely vocals.

At least 3 of my favorite musicians are hanging in or about Minneapolis, namely, Greg, Mark, and Colleen. Must be all the snow and moose sightings that keep y'all so artistically inspired.

This one is a Classic! I think you need to bring it to the next SongWriters Circle.

Nice, good job on adding a few more elements to the mix. They keyboard is cool! Bongos make EVERYTHING better.......

Colleen, That goodbye song is just the final song on my new album I did for the RPM Challenge...an online thing where people try to do a whole album between the beginning and end of February. http://www.rpmchallenge.com/ But thank you for listening to my music. I'm not going anywhere. j mt

Another winner.. like the others, I like the lyrics. Very nice.

Oh, I hear Penelope in there! Or is it? Now I'm not sure. Very Pretty

Another outstanding song...love the lyrics.. Have I mentioned that you remind me of Joni Mitchell ...well you do!!!

It actually reminds me of some of what I experienced when I got to visit the Serengeti! Cool music, lyrics, and vocals.

Very inspiring lyrics! I can hear all the anthem-esque background arrangements. Love this one!

Just beautiful!!!!

Exceptional lyrics!!! Love this arrangement- spare and supportive of your raspy warm vocals

Really like the vibe and your vocals are so lovely.

Sounding sultry cool as always! Good to hear you again.

Love the Beatles references! You go girl!!

GEEZZZZZZZ! Your lyrics always just slay! Fun to imagine all your arrangements moving about in your head. It sounds like a major league anthem in the making!

We are all getting older indeed. Grateful for the roof over my head!

Eerie and gorgeous!

I missed this one earlier. Love those beautiful images. Magical

I’d be dancing to this indeed!

You have a great voice! Excellent song. Very catchy indeed. Good luck on your RPM!

Lovely just lovely!

Always like your blues! Another good one indeed.

I love the raw quality of your vocals and just your guitar. Really powerful indeed. Your lyrics touch that place of remembrance of a long ago friend. What might they be like had they stayed around…. Love it!!

Still one of my fav songs of so many awesome song you’ve written. Your writing is absolutely amazing!

Rats on the long message! I just figured it out… it was bleeped away when one song ended and the next popped up mid typing by me. All hail Taylor Swift!!! I hope you and yours are doing okay during these crazy times.

The puppies and I really like this one. I turned it on and they stopped to listen and started bopping their heads along with the upbeat tempo. Love the happy visuals!

Came back for another! Wait!!! It feels like I’ve heard this before. Woodchucks!!! (Lame groundhogs day reference) Love this song. And glad you made it without breaking something

Love that bluesy feel… I can see that dusty road you’re on with the thumb out indeed
