I, like you, use to do electric guitar in my HS years, but also migrated to acoustic. Is that progress? I think so -- this song here would be much less effective if juiced up with distortion and wah wah and the other toys of our youth. This song is hard core as it is, and needs no electricity to get its message across.

How purty!

I recon this is my favorite Connor tune thus far. That is some coolacious strumming -- quite nifty in fact. The vocals and harmonica are exceptional. Yeah, this one really does in for me.

VERY GROOVY, VERY COOL!

I agree totally with what that Justin Otter Guy said below me! ;)

Those Monkeys are buggers you know!!

Thanks Bethan for adding the *SPARKLE*

If you ever make a "Best of Greg Connor" playlist on AloneTone (and I think you should), be sure to add these: With or Without You Cherry Pie w/Bethan Mathis Words Night Be the Weapon TV Dinner Listening to the Wind Greasy Spoon Shadow and Light Idea Man Farmer's Market

Very nice!

Quite an exceptional job, both in songwriting and in recording.

Such gorgeous picking, and awesome vocals, and as I said below from my Merry Bear account, fabulous lyrics. It's an overall brilliant composition. You really have reached a higher level, and you were up there to begin with. <3 <3 <3

Great sound and lyrics Greg. Nicely done.

I don't think Ronny Crème Cheese knows how to favor a tune: look for the heart, then right click. try it you will like it.

You've been taking your songwriting craft to another level of late! Fabulous lyrics. A very pleasant, tasteful mix down. Rich sound.

"Throwing your feces straight at me" wish I would have written that!!! more outstanding writing from you Greg...this one and the last one are some of you best work...great great great....

Touching Song.

Nice tune. I'm getting a sense that the roller coaster of Life is hitting one of the low spots for you at the moment. I was at a CSN concert back in the 80s, where David Crosby, introducing the song said. "When life lands you in serious sh**, you do the only thing you CAN do... CARRY ON!" And the boys launched into it. And It Was Good.

Great lyrics, love the Simian reference. I once read a book about difficult people, but he tore it up and tossed it out. The tune is tight and druid in feel. I so like this one 5 stars

We’ll done my friend.

You old softy …. This is beautiful.

Humans may not be good but you and Mark are good company! That was a fun afternoon.

Thanks for the great comments. It would be fun to spend an evening playing music with you in one of those "Cow Town" bars. You asked about my musical friends, we all live in the Minneapolis area, maybe within a 20 mile circle. Covid disrupted our activities a lot, and then we all seemed to have major disruptions in our life. My mother, for example, was on hospice most of last year and passed away at 93 years last fall. We are all coming out of the fog now and trying to get back to music. Tomorrow, Mark Lofgren, and I are meeting at Colleen Dillon's house for an afternoon of writing songs. With any luck we'll be posting something on Alonetone this week. I volunteer at Presbyterian Homes where my mother was and yesterday we had a little impromptu concert. I played guitar along with the Activity director and one of the memory care residents. Take a listen: https://mnsongwriters.org/members/greg-connor/mediapress/special-events/rosiebrucegreg/ Let's hope we all get much more active writing and recording this winter.

Great motto to live by.

“Raise a glass so you live life to the full” good advice!

Beautiful Tilden! Is this the Gretsch?

Poignant lyrics wrapped in a perfect presentation. You caught me with this one. Absolutely Beautiful and thought provoking.

This is a tasty bit of music. I love those acoustic instrumental sounds.

This is beautiful.

You old softy! This is a beautiful love song.

I like your style of playing. I play a little music with a friend who plays harp. It’s a beautiful instrument!

This is beautiful

Nice song! You mentioned it was rough, but it doesn’t sound that way. I think you’ve captured it.

Well done Tilden! The circumstances made me chuckle. Those Rosemont people will make you work for it.

I love it!

Great message! Let's see if we can live up to it.

Where … oh where is Lady Jane? I stopped by for “Just a Minute “

Slide and harmonica … my kinda song! Nice lead break at the end of the song.

Good advice! Very relaxed and solid presentation.
