LYRICS:
With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…

Such gorgeous picking, and awesome vocals, and as I said below from my Merry Bear account, fabulous lyrics. It's an overall brilliant composition. You really have reached a higher level, and you were up there to begin with. <3 <3 <3

Nice tune. I'm getting a sense that the roller coaster of Life is hitting one of the low spots for you at the moment. I was at a CSN concert back in the 80s, where David Crosby, introducing the song said. "When life lands you in serious sh**, you do the only thing you CAN do... CARRY ON!" And the boys launched into it. And It Was Good.

Great lyrics, love the Simian reference.
I once read a book about difficult people,
but he tore it up and tossed it out.
The tune is tight and druid in feel. I so like this one 5 stars
You are sooo good at what you do. you sing the especially well, just perfect for the music, which itself is just perfect for the lyrics. Again, it's that Connor magic!

It's 5 AM in the morning
I'm burning the midnight oil
There's coffee to stop the yawning
Just don't care about a recoil
I decide to take a walk
A starlit night in the park
I'm in the mood for…
This is a song that I wrote some years ago
I wasn't satisfied with the result and completely rerecorded it

I woke up this morning, tried to get out of bed
My head was in a spin. Lord, I felt so bad
My hands were trembling, my knees…
One of the last songs we recorded before the lockdown
Hans Nooitgedagt Jr - drums
Bingsolex - lead guitar

When you told me I was blind
It almost blew my mind
When you told…
(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…
Have you ever felt like it was YOU who were the problem? If you haven't, then you're missing out on one of the purest forms of self loathing that humanity has to offer. This is dedicated to the fine soul who actually did find something lovable…
I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get.
I like to imagine…
The other day I was having problems
So I called my son
Because he always helps me when I'm in trouble...
When the mouse can't see the dongle
The cursor is erratic.
There's something in the way
Move that chair
Hmh, maybe I Google it…
Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…
Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…
CALIFORNIA
Capo @ 4 in C/Am
I’m (Am) going back to California
A little place in the San (E) Joaquin
(Am, stepping down A G F# F E)
Where the back pasture builds
To Sierra foothills
And Kaweah tumbles down cool and clean
I’m going back…

OWIE! in G
When I get an owie
I want to tell somebody
When I get an owie
I feel so alone
When I get an owie
I want to show somebody
When I get an owie
I run strait to mom
When I get an owie
It's better if it's bloody...
First chuckle of the day! This has to be the only song I ever heard about an “Owie”.
I wonder if your objective was to get a little attention from Harriet?

Very nice!
Quite an exceptional job, both in songwriting and in recording.

Great sound and lyrics Greg. Nicely done.
I don't think Ronny Crème Cheese knows how to favor a tune: look for the heart, then right click. try it you will like it.

You've been taking your songwriting craft to another level of late! Fabulous lyrics. A very pleasant, tasteful mix down. Rich sound.
"Throwing your feces straight at me" wish I would have written that!!! more outstanding writing from you Greg...this one and the last one are some of you best work...great great great....
Touching Song.

Oh Cool! This is sweet!
this is just lovely!!
You are sooo good at what you do. you sing the especially well, just perfect for the music, which itself is just perfect for the lyrics. Again, it's that Connor magic!
As punch said to Judy " That's the way to do it"....
Some sweet banjo, and that low-noted lead break was very cool, and the lyrics just tickle me.
Comments made by Greg Connor
Nice clear recordings and excellent groove.
Good stuff. It's easy to slip into this music.
I like your style! Good song performed by talented musicians
This just sounds like fun.
This gets my feet tapping! Great Vocal supported by solid instrumentation. It's fun to hear you again!
Excellent song for the time! Very unique sound and feel.
It’s like finding the surprising soft side of some scruffy old characters
Sounds like you guys are having fun! Good song, and yes it does remind me a little of the Monkees.
I love it . . . .especially the part where the fly is stuck in the kitchen.
You got me laughing on your last comment and now found this treasure! It’s a good life.
Beautiful and a great reminder to keep things in perspective. Let's keep on writing!
Lovely music to accompany a peaceful message. Who is playing the piano?
Outstanding! I feel like taking a trip to Detroit.
Nice positive message, and interesting lyric and melody. Excellent!
"Where the moon on the beach pushes time out of reach" That's Poetry!
Very catchy
I love it! 26 seconds long to convey a complete thought.
A bit of a departure from your usual reflective messaging. This one is a real toe tapper.
Beautiful
