Very sweet! Simple things really make this song ... like the slightly unexpected (to me, at least) chords at the end of lines 2 & 3, and the way you hold the second-to-last word on the last lines ... those musical choices are perfect.

That's really really good Greg, love that voice in the back ground.It paints a picture to me, snow, open log fire, a Scottish cottage with friends. Oh and a few glasses of Mulled wine !!

PATCHWORK PLAN
You don’t have a job and I don’t have a place to stay
I make just enough for all the bills you have to pay

What instrument played in the lead break? Very interesting. It was a perfect change up.
These women that you keep singing about . . . I'd like to meet a few of them.
Lyrics:
Don’t you bow, to kings and queens
Rise above, everything
If the devil beckons, and the angels sing
Don’t listen to, anything
The time has come, to raise your hands
C’mon everybody, take a stand
Higher, Higher, Higher, Higher…

Collaboration with Freight Drive Reprobates (music) and Darkarma (lyrics).
Don't think it's my best, but it's been hanging around for so long, I needed to get it out so I can move on to the next one :)
Enjoy!
Good song here! You guys sound like you're having fun!
I loved the comment you left on my last song. You got me laughing pretty good!
*Good Luck* with the RPM 2014 Challenge.
Jan. demo for RPM 2014. Don't know if I will redo it for the album, so here it is for now...

I did this as a way to practice singing....why I am trying to learn to sing at 64 is a little strange.... I wish I had leaned to sing when I was starting out..but I always played in band with lots of singers and never had to sing much…

Comments made by Greg Connor
This hits the spot this morning. A little melancholy, just like our cold weather lately. I like the harmony.
I like that Latin influence
This is a nice set of songs for your RPM 2014.
Nice!
Another beautiful piece. Sounds like you had a great European vacation. My Father In Law was stationed off Italy during World War II.
You have the touch Richard. This is like taking a 6 minute break from everything going on today.
Nice version of one of my favorite songs.
Great story telling.
What instrument played in the lead break? Very interesting. It was a perfect change up. These women that you keep singing about . . . I'd like to meet a few of them.
You have the touch! I love it. I had this visual image of three backup singers in skimpy skirts singing the chorus with you.
Richard, It's a beautiful piece of music. It just carries me away.
Beautiful . . . You have conveyed the feeling perfectly.
I like it! Interesting melody and lyrics and you got a great back up band!
Good song here! You guys sound like you're having fun! I loved the comment you left on my last song. You got me laughing pretty good! *Good Luck* with the RPM 2014 Challenge.
Good story telling and fun to hear the banjo.
Outstanding!
You just blew me away! Excellent Kirk
Interesting start to the song. Nice song! Good start to RPM Challenge 2014.
Good blend, Electric Guitar and Harmonica! Well done guys.
*GOOD SINGING!* I think you have been misleading us all along. *GOOD GAUWD MAN* . . . You got the pipes!
