Here I stand before you, tell me what you want from me
I’ve done all that I could but I don’t think I can make you see
The crimes that you accuse me of are just a woman’s lie
She imagined that I loved her while my only crime was kissing…
Wonderful folk vocal - tender story-telling! I love your guitar arrangements - there's a real minimalism that I find very compelling. It's like every note, every phrase has its place and is absolutely necessary. Wonderful stuff.
who has her birthday today. She is the hedgehoglady who has helped me all the time with advice and booklets, and daily support, to take care of Ukkie, the little hedgehog, who was 220 grams and now already 954!! :-) I hope you like the music…
For our beautiful son Willem, in French Guillaume.
recorded in my livingroom, 16-7-2009.
I called the song Guillaume before because of the beautiful sound.
Since 2012 I changed the title of the song into : Willem.
Because that makes much…
Reg is broken hearted again the women are leaving through the revolving door so fast, that he doesn't really remember their names he just feels the loss the poor mans head is in such a mess........
Fun, sexy, cool, very Regs.
Revolving doors can be pesky like that. I once snogged a colleague in a revolving door at work in a sudden impulsive swirl of stupid. Happy days!

This is a blues collaboration between The TwoRegs (vocals / lyrics) and Norm Harris (percussion) and myself (17 note per octave electric guitar and fretless bass).
We hope you enjoy it…
Thanks sister!!! I recommend you listen the 'collaborated' (i'm sure it's badly expressed... forgive my english) version with Movement To Contact. He wrote and sung some lyrics, and well... he took it to a higher place.
This is a piano improvisation that mixes Pianoteq in Werckmeister III tuning with Cakewalk’s True Piano in 12 equal. What results is a soft phased piano sound. This skirts right on the edge of what can be considered microtonal. Some may well…
Time for a little humor. I had my wisdom teeth pulled last year, and the pain was debilitating. When I got the right pain meds, I felt so much better that I wrote this song. Colin added his considerable vocal talents and his harmonica and brought…
At a recent charity event held in my small town's train museum, I was admiring a massive brass train bell when the curator walked up to me. I commented that a bell would really rather be heard then seen, and he agreed. I offered to digitally record…
Lucy of the species Australopithecus looks into the distance of Awash Valley in what is now Ethiopia and feels the future of what can be.

My only criticism of this day in January is that it was too short. This is sublime.
Chilling out, drinking red wine, listening to tunes from the bordello. Sweet life.
Love the sense of urgency in this otherwise laid back piece. Such a classic.

"Tried to talk but all I did was sigh..." Wow. :)

Very nice! I like the horns!
All the best songs come that way, yes? Soulful stuff - another song freed by an unsuspecting agent. :)
...And this song is just a masterpiece.
Hey Inge, Just dropping by to listen to your good good stuff after some time away. As always, I'm amazed by the purity of your soulful vocals. Keith

Oh I LOVE the pic! Cool 70s vibe! That vocal is spot on!
Tear-jerking...not sure why. My daughters are growing up. It's MY growing pain. Love it when the woodwind kicks in at 2 mins.
Excellent!

Scorching strings!
There's definitely a story behind this piece, would like to see some modern dance translating it.
haha, genius collab!
What a warm tone, nice job.
Like the first few flickers of a new fire.
