Reminds me of the drunk brought into night court:
Judge: "Well, what brings you here this time?"
Drunk: "Two -hic- p'licemen!"
Judge: "Drunk as usual, I see."
Drunk: "Yep. Both of 'em."
I was down at the station
Catch the Greyhound to Go My Way
And I heard the loudspeaker
We’ll be leaving some time today
You just Say no thank you
When I ask you to be mine
I’ll be looking for that green light
When I ask you the next…
I was down at the station
Catch the Greyhound to Go My Way
And I heard the loudspeaker
We’ll be leaving some time today
You just Say no thank you

I’ll be looking for that green light

Wake up in the morning, I’m still in my cloths
I got one eye open but the other wont go
Barely can remember the night before
Except for how you threw me out the door
Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey
I think I’m in trouble again…

Michael and I always have something going on, So I'm sure there will be more.
Lyrics and…
This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
First time through, WOW, that is beautiful.
Second time through, I'm just amazed.
You have captured that lonesome emotion that washes into the feeling of something bigger than us.
The drone supporting the whistle compliments perfectly.
Third time through ... even better.

THE CHILD WITH THE BEAUTIFUL NAME
What remains of an eagle that's fallen
The roots of an oak tree now claim
To draw sap for the shade for the cattle
O're the child with the beautiful name

This is a piece in a microtonal tuning - but sounds very much like pentatonic in "normal" 12 equal tuning to my ears. But I work in microtonal tunings all the time and may be biased.
How "in tune" does this sound to you?

One cloudless night, freedom's candle was snuffed
Kicked and punched, gagged and cuffed
They took him away, for what he's not
Then cracked his skull, as a gesture for his…
I usually like lyrics, but in this case (to answer your question) less is more. I like the way this hangs together on it's own.
As I said earlier, VERY PRETTY
Songcrafters.org did a "Live in the living room "festival recently...
The only music I can play in my living room these days is the odd lot of contemplative classical guitar, as anything else would wake up the family at night... :)
Here is…
This is a guitar idea our friend Doug worked up for one of our Christmas songs. I'm posting it in case Amy gets a chance to listen from work. Hopefully we'll record a new, full version before Christmas!

Absolutely beautiful.
What a great slippery feel. You nailed it guys!
Nice music, and I really like the way you started out .
Perfectly Sparse

Interesting sound that you have created.
Interesting tone on your guitar, and intriguing playing style. It's very captivating.
This is beautiful!
Well ... I have even more appreciation for the piece now that I know what you are up to. I think it's exceptional.
I like it. It reminds me of Aaron Copland. I can see using something like this behind a video, or a mood setter in a collection of musical pieces.
Interesting story and totally unexpected, at least for me.
Great combination of sounds, especially Guitar / Organ.
I laughing out loud, nothing better than a "feel good" song. Go ... ELVIS ... GO
Nice full sound and it floats along just like a leaf on the water. The lead guitar sound is to die for.
I love the build up in this song, and the distorted lead guitar.
Interesting effect in there. I like the simple straight forward approach.

Reminds me of my hero Paul Simon. Great lyrics and the music is intriguing.
Pretty! I like the sound of that classical guitar.
Wow, this is beautiful
