I'm having a déjá vu moment here. Is it possible I've heard a different version of a tune sometime? Or am I just suffering from campaign 2016 mind rot?

Okay this is killer!!!! I was also expecting a spoofer song for your Pirate submission, you surprise us all with this amazing tale... Beautiful and a bit scary (especially the teeth in the cup!) Talk about swinging for the fences. LOVE IT!!!!!!

Here is a *MOJITO* Fueled version of "TV Dinner" that we recorded last Monday night in my Basement.
It's one of 9 songs we will be taping for Community TV, thanks to the *Minnesota Association Of SongWriters*

Well here's my contribution to the Pirate challenge from Robert Palomo. I think you'll agree it was time to call it a night on this one, but it was a lot of fun writing and recording it! Hope it gives you a chuckle or two.
Why Do Parrots…
Arrrrrr . ....... I started me morning out right for a change! A great listen and a darn good chuckle.
That damn parot in the background was good entertainment and the perfect balance to you lilting song.
I KEEP MY RADIO ON
I keep my radio on
From sunset to dawn
Keeps the spooks at bay
Scares them all away
I keep my radio on
I guess some folks got no problems
Some folks got no regrets
Don’t know how they do it
I’m not there yet…
You always have the most refreshing and honest songs!
I once had someone call me selling a security system. I told them "I don't need it." They will only come in here once.
Geas sent me this tune for National talk like a pirate a day so we took it down the cellar and luckily Robert Newton was down there so we got him up on the stage and got him to do this little number......Hoping Yee enjoy eye arrh…
I decided to pick a few chords at random, just like that, wrote them down and then somehow tried to make a melody with it, no idea how, but it worked :-) I then added some lyrics et voilà...here's the result. A quick "just for fun" project. I…
I wrote this song about 2 years ago and shared it here on Alonetone back then. I decided to do a studio recording of it recently. With the help of the team at F5 Soundhouse here in Minneapolis we've created this updated version. I hope you enjoy…
Ken sent me over this AC/DC kinda backer and asked if i was interested in doing something with it and i sure was ....Heres' what we came up with Thanks Ken for letting me warble on this.....SHE SER MY BLOOD ON FIRE
six foot one with those dark…
Miles Away is a very simple guitar riff and lyrics that match, but it's a song that came from the heart of one of the band's members. It's kind of a tune about a newly married couple...like most Prood songs it was recorded after one or two rehearsals…
Reminds my of those days when my hair went all the way over the top.
Have you ever thought of teaming up with Colleen for a song or two? I think you could really compliment each other.
I decided to keep working on this one a bit on the "keep messing with it" program.... added some backing vocals and some piano.... kind of like where its heading after the one take wonder before... Any other suggestions are very welcome…
or A.K.A. the Caribou Lake song...
I wrote this one for my Dad, who while up at our family cabin in the north woods of MN said there's not enough music about the woods...
My first "one take wonder" - just me and my little Uke - roughing…

Another one of my musical creations, the first one after my open heart surgery, I finally am getting more strength to sing again :-) So I decided it was high time to have a go in writing a little french number. I hope you enjoy it. Kind regards, Anna
I recently got back in touch with an old friend/guitarist who had moved across the country nearly 20 yrs ago. We discussed maybe doing a collab so I whipped up this original instrumental track and he laid down the lead melody guitar part.
Hope…
The wonderful MN songwriters helped take a bite out of the January cold on Tuesday night this week and added some amazing depth to Singing in the Silence - We were as usual, recording on a little TASCAM around my coffee table. We had lots of…
Rendition of Stepping Out originally by John Mayall and the Blues Breakers. A little tone secret that Eric used on some of these tracks is he set his toggle switch to the middle position and turned his neck pickup volume down to about 7 or 8 by…

Loving the guitars ...

Always great intimate acoustic music from you. Another goody.
Fall is my favorite time of year and this song is perfect and puts me in a fall mood!!..guitars sound excellent...great song Greg.
Nice man - good story telling. Guitar sounds sweet and you've got a very distinctive voice.
Great guitar work!
Loving thAt double vocal at the beginning ... I'm sat here listening to the wind blow
Draws you right in. Great stuff.
Okay this is killer!!!! I was also expecting a spoofer song for your Pirate submission, you surprise us all with this amazing tale... Beautiful and a bit scary (especially the teeth in the cup!) Talk about swinging for the fences. LOVE IT!!!!!!
Clever lyrics ! Good Job on the pirate challenge. :) c
Only a true Minnesotan could write a pirate song like that LOL! Shiver me timers but I like it. Open tuning, flutes... awesome arrangement. Fav fav fav.
WOW!!...this is amazing..I was sure a Pirate song would be a spoof...but this is an outstanding song....love the chorus...great lyrics Greg....a fantastic story as well...love it!!!
The question is - which SG? Nice mix of voices and instrumentation as usual. Buck
I thought it was Listen To the Wind because of the title not the music!! 2 completely different songs...almost same title:-) love the new one!!
The SG sounds great...I thought it was a remake of this song we did http://stash.alonetone.com/mp3/54568/Listening_To_The_Wind.mp3?AWSAccessKeyId=1Q6FSC4S0DWWWG6ZJAR2&Expires=1473252980&Signature=PYSaoYwHtJ9%2BjLauMHTcDSk3Zyg%3D but a new song about the wind!!! great stuff
Another instant classic. Love the sound of the Gibson backing your beautiful vocals. This one is sure a keeper
Beautifully nostalgic lyrics and a charming sound of voice and guitar
beautiful........
Up near the Temprance right now... Came back for another listen to this lovely song
For me, this song captures a feeling. It puts me back in northern mn with whiskey jacks, chickadees, and the silence of fresh snow on the ground.

Now . . . This puts me in the mood !!! Nice contribution to the challenge.
Excellent . . . especially for a "just for fun" project.
My feet started tapping immediately!
Beautiful song and professional presentation!
This gets the blood pumping!
I love the banter! You guys sound like you know how to have fun!

This hits the spot! Well done!
Ooooooooooooh !!! I like those harmonies! That piano is a perfect touch. It's another winner Colleen. Nice going.
Ron is right, your voice is getting stronger each time.
A refreshing bit of joy! I'll bet your Dad enjoyed this.
Great song! Lots of energy. I don't speak French, so I can only imagine what the whispering is about ... And I have a vivid imagination!
Very pleasing to listen to. It lends itself well to lyrics too.
P O W E R F U L
A little taste of the Caribbean, at least to my ear. Nice!
Nice performance
After we talked about this song on the phone, I had to take another listen. *YUP* . . . and *YUP* on both topics !!!!!!!!!
Amazing James! You got the touch!
