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…
When you C reach the Em point

Empty Bottles…
I had myself a dream last night
As I tossed and turned in bed
The window was open wide
The street noise jangled, in my head
.
I was dreaming of a better time
It was all so clear to me
Wind whistled through the pine trees…

Old stuff new stuff.
Jb is Justified Brutality also if marked JB because I can't remember the password.
RR is Rectal Rip, and its worse than JB but is also weirder.
This song is for my work as an English teacher. I train up primary school children and then record them singing it. if all goes well, I give them an mp3 with their vocals in it and cut mine out.

This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…
B U R N
That sensation you are feeling in your fingertips is progress.
This is a big milestone for you! I'm proud of you.
There is no going back now . . . no more putting up with some obnoxious guitar player who thinks he knows everything. Now the song will sound as you intended it.
I think those chord changes sound darn good and the ukulele turns out to be an excellent accompaniment for your voice.
*** For those who have not met Penelope, I'll just say she is a REAL LOOKER! Spruce top and block inlays just like my Gibson SG Custom ***

Full moon, full of mystery
Full moon, shadows thru the trees
I can feel your spell, I’m beggin at you please
So long I been straight and true
No wrong has come into view
I can feel that dark side, all because of you
Way down…

One of my personal favorite recordings from the 52 song MYTHOPOETICA demo collection, even though there’s a sound quality issue (the bass had a bit of a buzz). This was my first time using a wammy bar – I liked it!

It's great to catch up with you Vern! I hope you are doing well.
I can't remember .10cent popcorn, but I remember .25cent gas.
I also remember watching the movie twice before we left the theater.
Steve (SLKrell) and I have been competing over the same *"IMAGINARY"* girlfriend for years now.
And Yep . . . Steve started it. Well she's mine now, at least until Steve writes the next song. Look for Steve's music here:

Here is a new mix, compliments of Gene Eric Mann.
Gene didn't say this, but I'd like to think that he wanted to make sure that Steve heard every word clearly.
Thanks Gene!
ADOBE & BLOOD
Thanks to David Kneller
for bringing up the subject
and creating that phrase:

To block out the memories what…
Man . . . I like this.
Beautiful. You have captured the bitter sweet volitily in the January 2015 market for sure. I'll bet your 2014 piece had all major chords in it.
Update: Gene offered to improve the Mix on this song! This is that improved version. Thanks so much Gene! You are awesome!!!
I wrote this song earlier this summer, and had played it a few times with Greg Connor, fellow alone toner, and…
*Another example where the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts*
I think this live version is better than anything we could have ever cooked up in my basement no matter how much wine we drank.
Thanks to Gene's help, this remix has a lot more definition.
Bottom line, it's better when everyone comes together to contribute.

Stopped by for another listen. I think you have to move to Savage. We could have a good time together.
I didn’t think people living in Portsmouth (Paradise) ever got the blues. It’s fun to catch up to you Roger!
O M G I didn't recognize you until I clicked play! That voice gave you away. Nice song, introspective and pleasing to listen to.
Wow. . . I had to stop by just to hear what "Rectal Rip" was all about.
Very interesting. That mandolin really perks the piece up.
I like this! Good song!

Oh yes. That's the stuff.
Good ear Ron! Yes, that's my old Dobro, built in 1973 tuned to open D and played with a slide.
That Wah Wah is fun!
Beautiful song Colleen! Great way to start the challenge.
Tasty . . . Nice start to the challenge.
Festive.
Beautiful song.
Interesting song lyrics.
