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

MAD AND SAD AND SCARED
I just want to get by for a friend
This is not how I would want to end
Mad and sad and scared

To kiss you every day

WALKING ON THE MOON
See the Earth on horizon

My body's going to set me free…

And y'all thought the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about! This song is 4 dimensional – up/down, left/right, in/out, now/then. BIG THANKS to Greg Connor for fabulous vocals…
Remixed unplugged.
I removed all the electric guitars and synths.
I also replaced the lead with a harmonica, re-recorded my backups, and ran the bass track through a fretless patch.
I like this version.
Thanks Michael - You've been a wonderful…

Beautiful piece
Great beat . . . I like the Wah Wah effect.
Interesting bit of history passed down to the next generation.
I like the way this builds. You keep it interesting.
I'm laughing out loud! What a riot!
Another interesting texture to this song. Your last two have been unique And refreshing to listen to.
Nice tribute. The song has a freshness to it.
Thanks for the invitation. That was fun!
Very unique . . . and beautiful, almost tranquil.
It's like taking a 5 minute journey. Haunting music with great bass line accompanying perfect vocal.
Nice organic feel with the acoustic guitar and harmonica
This thing REALLY swings! Excellent
This is a real toe tapper! Big full sound.
You have that distinctive sound. Well done again!
I love it! You should get the "BLUES" more often. This is first class.
Great sentimental song/story.
Wow . . . I like this! You really have a nice grove going here.
Great Vocal with lots of feeling! I like that acoustic sound too.
Beautiful song. Music is very inviting and compliments the singing perfectly. Nice work guys!
