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.

But thank you for listening to my music. I'm not going anywhere.

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 :-)

"Hold Me Close" written, recorded, and mixed (very quickly) in three hours on September 13, 2022.
Cover art by Dan Upton.
and on this fateful day i'll be
forced apart away from you
my destination i can't see
and i don't know where…
Part 1 of a travelling trilogy. Played on electric guitar in Dropped D Tuning. On the Wetband site here at Alonetone I overdubbed some slide guitar and bass: https://alonetone.com/wetband/playlists/traveling-trilogy/traveling-on-by-woody-b…
Trying out a new strat: not letting myself work on details on the computer until the skeleton of the song is complete. Result is a lot of variety in songwriting, but a bit rougher arrangement/mix.

I'm trying my hand at creating instrumentals for Sync Licensing. This track is actually one file containing 3 pieces of music: Orion's Belt 1, 2 & 3.
You can find my instrumentals on Pond5. Here is the address:

Thought I'd share something from my latest project: Putting together instrumentals of public domain songs to use as intermission music for a community theater production. We got dinged for streaming copyrighted music in our previous production…
Here is the latest song challenge offered by the Minnesota Asscociation of Songwriters:

Your mission this month is twofold:
1. Try creating a boundary between the production of content versus the judging…
Comments on Colleen Dillon's stuff
Nice, good job on adding a few more elements to the mix. They keyboard is cool! Bongos make EVERYTHING better.......

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 nice vocals
Lovely !
intriguing story deserves further developement
Thanks so much Gene!!! Everything I listen to it again it just cracks me up. Such a fun contest!!

*He’ll be fully functional, And also great in bed* Haha! Awesome track! Feel good overload. :-D
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!
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!
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 :-)

Your voice sounds glorious on this one! Great lyrics too.
How did I miss this one? Sweet love indeed. Glad you dug this one up!!
Your voice is awesome! Love the visual story of this song.
Such a lovely and sad tune. Well done
Is really chill, but with such a happy energy too. I love it!
“Get out of bed…. I need the sheets for the table”…. Classic lyrics. Oh my…. Poor Simone
I dig this one!!!! Great vibe! Hope north of Thunder Bay brought good things to you!!
This is gorgeous!
I love this - not rough at all. The lyrics are really compelling. Love the bridge….
I agree with Ron! The last one makes me want to dance. Love them!
Gorgeous!!
Really peaceful… thanks for sharing this
They surely are indeed…. Gritty and brutal. Like so many love stories. This one needs to be a sound track to a true crime series
Sounds awesome Tilden! A great choice to have playing during intermission. Very nice rendition.
Very cool story telling…. I forgot we had done this one!! Fun to hear all our voices unexpectedly. Hope you are well!!
Delightfully dreamy!
so awesome! Lucky you and lucky Kimmy
Hey!!!! Is this a new account for my old friend SLK???? I can't mistake that lovely voice and guitar work. Good to hear you playing here!!!
Love the chorus so much! The power of music may just do it indeed.
Sounds like a very challenging love affair indeed… the lyrics are haunting just like Ron says. The harmonica is such a great forlorn sound.
