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!
This is a song I wrote this week, trying to capture that strange emotion you sometimes feel during times of great milestones in your life - good things happening, changes, moving on. Joy and melancholy all at the same time. Everyone feels it…
Bullseye!
An excellent example of the power of collaboration being greater than the sum of it's parts.
I love the simplicity, and that emotional tug.
This one really caught my attention, well done guys!
Update: Paul took the first version and made it even better. So impressed with his talents. Thanks everyone for your kind words on the original. I know you'll like this version even more!
I was listening to some of Paul Lennon's great…
This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.
Greg…
This is the first time I have played in drop D
this is a Springsteen song that he borrowed the title from a Pete Seeger song..and I like the way Warren Haynes plays it live...so here is my humble attempt at it...

BROKEN BOTTLES
Broken bottles on the shore
You're molded to the bathroom floor
Just like you were the day before
All throughout the year and more
No excuse, you're such a mess
You break your word, you're honor-less
A heartless soul…
CHECK IT OUT!! It's the very elusive and thought to be the stuff of fabled musician's lore, A "completed" song by the guy that I AM!
A robster the rock lobster
I'm going to keep this song EXCLUSIVELY here at Alonetone.com because this…
Once again, Greg Connor has kindly added his wonderful harmonica and Dobro to this song. Thanks so much, Greg! Mean Streak Blues is a song about how wrongly we could deal with frustration....enjoy listening

Dogs bark all night

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.

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.
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3
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.

Ah the early 80's . . . .
Bullseye! An excellent example of the power of collaboration being greater than the sum of it's parts. I love the simplicity, and that emotional tug. This one really caught my attention, well done guys!
Oh this is good. The banjo effect was a pleasant surprise and the harmonica was the perfect accent. Bethan, as always you brought it home!
Ah . . . It's this song that Paul remixed. It has a little more reverb on your voice. It mixes with the music perfectly.
Is this the song that Paul remixed? It sounds good.
I had to stop by for another listen . . . DAMN !!!
Excellent . . . It's like this music was made for your lyrics. Great lyrics Colleen Nice music Paul!
Great Harmonica accent. You guys should get some leather pants and go on tour!
Nice groove on this one!
Lots of Fun !!!
Oooooooh, I like this.
Foot Tapping Good
This hit the spot!
I love it! Lord have Merscy!
I hear Fran in there saving your ass again. . . . Sorry, I just couldn't help but have a little fun with you this morning.
Nicely put together.
Another GREAT song!
It's fun to come back and revisit this one. I love the lyrics and the way you sing it.
You are on a roll lately! Keep on Truckin!
Good one Fran!
