Lyrics:
Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…
This song is in response to the song writting challenge offered by Carl Unbehaun of Minnesota HomeBrew Radio / Thief River Falls, MN
"Write a song about a Crazy X Girlfriend"

Snow on the ground. Wind and temperatures below zero. It's time for another coffee table evening.
Recorded live around my coffee table with:
Mark Lofgren - Lead Guitar & Harmony
Colleen Dillon- Ukelele & Harmony
Greg Connor…
No, I never wrote the song, but always thought I would begin the song with the sound of my 12 guage shotgun as I open the action.
Gunshots and clapping are very hard to record. But there are plenty of places to go grab a sample.

You commented on my song I KEEP MY RADIO ON. You also added, "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." Did you write that song?

Well the MN songwriters were in my living room tonight. We all shared our contributions to the "glass" songwriting challenge. Here's the live version of Poorly Blown Glass with Greg Connor on Guitar, Scott Zosel on Mandolin, Colin Walterson…
This song will touch your heart, once. Its composition is so well. One of my friend sent me this song. She made me perk up with this song. Its wordings are not only remarkable but unforgettable. Let me know your opinion for this song.
Great song! It pulled me in from the start.
Interesting Lyrics complimented with wonderful instrumentation.
*(Not what I was expecting after reading your profile description)*
Greg Connor added his amazing harp to the song. It really adds depth to it. I love Greg's playing on the song. Thanks so much, Greg! This is why Alonetone is great.

Cemetery Mary
tboudreau /cmaiorano
I went out creeping on a Halloween night
Looking for the scream of my life
Not a single soul was sleeping every spook was insight
Even half-dead were alive
There's a guilty moon hanging in the gallows…
The Boogieman

I just might be hiding behind your bedroom door
you might find me lying under your bed, down on the floor
You swear you hear the creekin' coming up the stairs
you got your eye on the peep-hole and nobody's there…
Song by Nick Plagakis
Lyrics:
I don’t care for love and happiness
I got myself a yacht and a mansion
I don’t believe in God and religion
I got myself sixty four billion
Greed, greed, greed is what I need
Greed, greed, greed is what…

Beautiful music for what seems like a senseless event.
Good Entertainment!
The white light coming through the door at the end gave me the chills. That's a pretty neat video!
This is beautiful. Nice work on this one Colleen! I'm amazed at the quality of recording from a small handheld recorder sitting on your coffee table.
I love that acoustic music!
Well done
You always come up with the best melodies and lyrics. I love the simplicity of this. The doubling of voice (W/Reverb) is a nice touch.
Great song! It pulled me in from the start. Interesting Lyrics complimented with wonderful instrumentation. *(Not what I was expecting after reading your profile description)*
