#RPM Challenge 2013#
I was standing behind an elderly couple in the grocery store checkout line last week.
The cashier told them that someone had donated $100 toward their groceries. $100 had already been paid toward their $121 grocery…
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…
Well this is a very happy song.....you must be getting some hot happy action!!!!!...now I am happy too...seriously...another outstanding tune...hope you have a great Christmas and get some more happy!!!
I was going to put this on here tomorrow morning but knowing i'll be dead to the world i thorght i'd better put it on now before i get started ha ha ha!
I usually play bottleneck Dobro in Open D tuning.
This is much more melodic than that old Dobro screaching away like a couple of crows on a fencepost.
I pulled out my Low D Irish whistle and played along with you this morning.
Very nice music Paul.
A sweet little song by a grandma lady from out west "Melvina Reynolds" bless her heart and excuse the language, Smile don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Don't mind wearing the ragged…
I wrote this song after reading the book, Immanuel's Veins by Ted Dekker. At the end of the story the main character recalls the first verse of a hymn. I looked it up on the internet and learned that it is a hymn by an Englishman, William Cowper…
This was the first in this set of 3 songs I am posting. I was gaining alot of inspiration from the likes, of Justin Currie and Jackson Browne at the time.
Recorded using Reaper DAW & Jamstix virtual drummer software.
This is an ode for a good friend of mine that had took his own life at the end of last year. I was in the midst of writing some other songs and it stopped me in my tracks. I just wrote basically how I felt about this tragic ending to a very special…
(Em) A legend that the sailors told
Tales shared from long ago
(C) Secrets that are captured in the (Em) air
(Em) It comes to you from far way
Whispered roars that fade away
(C) Answers that are carried on the (Em) breeze
Only (C) heard…
Forgot I had this one, till it popped up on my Ipod on the way to work this week. I thought,'I know that song !!??!!' Can't help it, it comes with age !!!!
This is a remix of this song.
It was recorded in 2010, and I was in a hurry to post it elsewhere because I'm so fond of the song itself. But I've always hated the old mix - I lost the essence of the guitars and choirs during mastering because…

Such a heavy song and so well produced. I pushed the replay button twice so far.
The lyrical message is facinating.
The imagery just doesn't stop. In fact it suggests that I look around the corners.
The melodic presentation is very captivating.
Nice presentation Andrew!
They say we're dangerous, that we never really cared.
That we're selfish, we're blind, and pessimistic.
But I'm not wired for disaster, I'm not broken at the seams.
Alas, I've been watching them, rip away from me.
Digest my insides, they are…
I'm lacing up my shoes.
I always knew that walking was good for you, but when you're headed for somewhere like the Pub, well . . . that's like getting two rewards in one.
Nice toe tapper!
First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

Good Lyrics, and good stomping music. I like the whistling.
I remember those days. Let's hope,at least in my case, the morning after stays a distant memory. Good foot stomper!

This really trucks along. I really enjoyed the bass line.
Well Said / Good Message It reminds me of a specific SOB. I had the misfortune of crossing his path.
That was Fun!

I feel like I just found a quarter on the sidewalk. What a great find. Thanks for making my morning.
"Afterall" has a great swing to it. You really put this one together well.
Nice tribute to an old friend.
@Richard L. Aceves. Thanks for asking. The instrumental break is a High D and a Low D Irish Whistle.
Sounds like a great summer road trip song. " Let's Go"

I don't listen to Travis, but I would listen to this again. Valerie doesn't know what she's missing.
Sounds even more mystical and dark. I'm enjoying the evolution. It's a little like Darwin.
Beautiful songs, this one included. Your lyrics have a depth to them, engaging, and thought provoking. Very easy listening, and enjoyable.
You really have the licks! I love it! It's been HOT here too. Maybe if I stand out in the Sun, I'll be able to play the guitar like you.
I'm lacing up my shoes. I always knew that walking was good for you, but when you're headed for somewhere like the Pub, well . . . that's like getting two rewards in one. Nice toe tapper!
Don't know how I missed this one. I'll second Tess' comment, WOW.... "Shine" hits the mark!
Great song for walking down the isle.
