Lemonade is an instrumental. It started as an early version of a co-written song with Mary Kealy Falk. We eventually settled on the 4th version of the project.

When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…

my father was airborne 82nd on June 6th Normandy. like so many others he rarely spoke about it, just did what he had to do, and moved on. here's to all who have made the world a little better (this is a re post of a piece i wrote for rpm 2013
This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!
I borrowed the title from one of my favourite madrigals, The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons:
"The silver swan who living hath no note, when death approached…

Wow . . . A perfect example of Aristotle's famous quote:
*The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts*
Nick, Paul, Bethan, I hope you find another opportunity to do this again.

I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…
I stopped by for another listen this morning. I've seen a few tributes to Gene. It's nice to see that.
It's been a little quiet around here since he's been gone.
Geas put this beauty of a classic up with the offer of exercising your vocals and i couldn't resist. thanks Geas for the chance to give it a go........
i got caught speeding in my car by one of those eyes in the sky and it got me thinking...... about the world we are living in and what its becoming.....or is that become?
I got eyes.....
They tell us that were safe in our homes

My Window
Lyrics
The stars go by my window each and every day
I can see the Earth about a billion miles away
the Sun is getting bright
It’s been so long since I left the atmosphere
I can’t wait…
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…

Beautiful Music! I had trouble playing the video.
Isn’t Catalina Island where the Great Whites migrate through? Yikes!

Wow . . . That's some guitar playing!
I like that bass. I like the drums. Oh heck, I like all of it. Great interwoven piece.
Very Interesting
Different and intriguing.
*" T I M I D "* . . . is never an adjective that comes to mind when I think of you. You got me smiling AGAIN this morning
Beautiful and Powerful Piece of Music
Good story behind the song! 32 years? It's as smooth as vintage wine.
Very easy feeling, like putting on old shoes.
So different than preceding songs. I had to stop by for another listen. You got a keeper here.
Second time through, EXCELLENT !!!

It's nice to see a few reminders this week of what we will be missing. Long live BB's music!
Paul . . . Excellent musical track. Reg . . . You can REALLY kick it in gear. Well done guys!
Yes, we're living in the world of George Orwell 1984.
Very fresh and enjoyable to listen to.
Beautiful Tess !
