Update: Gene offered to improve the Mix on this song! This is that improved version. Thanks so much Gene! You are awesome!!!
I wrote this song earlier this summer, and had played it a few times with Greg Connor, fellow alone toner, and…
OK, for the 3rd day in a row, I woke up with your voice singing this song in my head, and I carry it with me all day. If the responses to a songwriting challenge were judged by that standard -- how stuck it gets into one's head, then no contest, this one has possessed me!
Hi! I just posted a remix of this, hopefully that's OK with you? Here it is: http://alonetone.com/mecreos/tracks/change-is-calling-1
I thought is was cool, hopefully you do to.
Just listen in headphones. Very juicy. You really did a great job with this, Colleen -- the headphones prove you know how to mix it up! Good, clean, fun mastering job -- I'm impressed!
Ha Ha ...loved it.....inspired lyrics....we kind of think alike...we should put our 2 disturbed brains together....what comes out may be unpublishable though!! lol :-)
Oh what groovy, appropriate music! Great lyrics. Delightful vocals. What a wonderful job, and a story told so well, so fully, so... so... futuristic? Is that the word I'm looking for? I'm blown away! Thank you, Colleen!
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…

That sensation you are feeling in your fingertips is progress.
This is a big milestone for you! I'm proud of you.
There is no going back now . . . no more putting up with some obnoxious guitar player who thinks he knows everything. Now the song will sound as you intended it.
I think those chord changes sound darn good and the ukulele turns out to be an excellent accompaniment for your voice.

Deserts of the Higher Plane
Searches end, I had to admit
Mirages were never towns
Till I finally quit with my damages aloft
Holding what I can’t, what I can’t allow
Desserts of the Higher Plane roll along
Desserts of the higher plane…
Really great song .Feel of soul,feel of heart that is not yours.Music is something I feel very passionate about, my experience in various areas of the industry has fed this passion.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall....
Humpty Dumpty's Warning Song (A preachy cautionary tale)
Pieces of the heavens lost
Shattered like ice on the ground
Desperate men struggled on
To put back all they had found
I sat upon a great stone…

I was so excited when SlKrell wrote to ask if I would do the vocals on this excellent song he wrote! I loved his lyrics and the rocking backing guitars. Hope you enjoy it too!
Merry Christmas everyone.
I wanted to drop ya'll a line and say happy holidays.
I'm always thinking of you.
I hope to be around for RPM 2016.
I will be doing RPM as Wildgeas Music.
Much love

Okay this is cool cool coolio..... and cuz the Proods comment made me look up spaghettification I too spent some time reading about it... i love the reference to the subway... and boy do I ever need a vacation. This song is now my new fav ear worm!
Friends...an offering from the not-real album "Dr. Pepsi's Death Cult Glee Club". The song was inspired by t.v. commercials featuring actor William Devane, who has spent the last few years trying to convince Americans to buy gold.
The sentiments…
You guys are having so much fun ALL THE TIME!!! I love the creative pool this great stuff comes out of. "Fill the bathtubs with champagne and jump right in".... A perfect sentiment after a long week. Thanks for the happy Friday soundtrack!

Gene this was a fantastic challenge. Thanks so much to you for creating all this fun for everyone!!!
"Technopedia, Wikipedia," "My box cutter nearly hummed," "... arrived by FedEx And a big two-wheeler was required," your poetry is excellent!

Fun contest! I'm trying to come up with something, but haven't had time to work on it. Good job to all of you Android builders!
Well this has indeed brought out the "best" in all of us!!!! I look forward to another crazy challenge in the future.... HA!!!
Ha Ha ...loved it.....inspired lyrics....we kind of think alike...we should put our 2 disturbed brains together....what comes out may be unpublishable though!! lol :-)
Great job! Who's up for the Android challenge next?
What goes on in that mind of yours? Suspicious from now on and laughing out loud.
Oh what groovy, appropriate music! Great lyrics. Delightful vocals. What a wonderful job, and a story told so well, so fully, so... so... futuristic? Is that the word I'm looking for? I'm blown away! Thank you, Colleen!
Very creative :)
