This is it ... FAWM's all finished for me... time for a lie down now.
There's still nearly a week to go, but I'm done, 14 songs written in 16…
I lost track of time this past Friday with this song. I found a sketch of the melody and a few of the lines that I had recorded on my phone in late April 2019. I was getting ready to move from my magical little studio that resided in a 1923 Great…
Nice work Tim ! I've followed you for awhile and your vocals have gotten a lot stronger. I'm thinking my favorite on this album is "Take It". Something about hits me just right. Good job all around. Oh--- cool you gave us a couple tunes from "under the turf" :-) Dave C. acoustic57

OK, this is a bit of a departure for me - posting songwriting demos.
This is a one mic recording made this morning in the living room, touch of reverbs…
Sounds great! Impassioned vocals and sweet sounding acoustic guitar. There's just something about simple and sparse arrangements. I can see where you're coming from in regards to RPM, there is a significant difference between writing and production. I think I enjoy the production side of things more, and once I finish with an RPM, I rarely go back and touch it. I'm an inept writer, so the thought of writing 14 songs in a month would give me anxiety!
Nice and jazzy. You sound like you are enjoying yourself.
As for Barbara, word has it that she has been observing a full moon through the neighbor’s window.

A song about a horse race, or a song about a race horse. RIP, strong filly. We're so sorry for what was done to you.
Dia de Muertos, of course.
Yet another stellar improv. -- well done, Ben!
Agreed with the other comment, very Elbow-esque, the melody and even the vocal has a Guy Garvey style to it. Excellent!
Toe tapper, this one. Nice chord changes.
Touching.
Great vocals! Raw and honest. I love nuances that cannot be replicated, it lends to a one-of-a-kind recording.
