River run away with me
I got my paddle in my hand
Take me far away from here
Take me to the sea
Take me somewhere I don’t know

Start out fast, then go slow
Closer to the…

Whispered roars that fade away

The most beautiful, gorgeous Sea Shanty I've ever hear. So haunting, chilling, gripping... I'm in awe. The instrumentation, the melody -- you're a marvelous talent. Too real! Wow -- just wow!

I’m a lucky boy
I’m filled with joy
I got angels guiding me
Happens every time
I don’t walk that line
Seems to work out splendidly
Stop and look around
I’m the luckiest boy in town
Ain’t no better can be found…

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…

Great stuff. And that's a truly fabulous vocal sound you've captured there - the intro was rolling along nicely and then, when the vocal came in, I just went "YESSS"
Garn/Landry (And I barely deserve any credit for this one at all)
A while back, Jim recorded a rough version of this song, and upon listening to it, I was thrown back to a day from my youth. While vacationing in Vermont, a small twister throwing…
I had a basic melody and fragments of the words swirling around my head in the last few days ... so I sat down and made a song out if ... it took several rounds of playing to figure out how to present this, being part 5/4 and part 4/4 ... I finally…

You say
I doesn’t matter what I say
All the time we spent is gone now
Taken out
You cry
I'm not even asking why
Your head's up in the sky now
Your alive

A more cheerful version of The Mouse. JB and I thought the other a bit mournful - when we wrote it we were thinking of a reggae version...so this is it.
The last one for the day....what can i say it had to be done.....

We’ve all had dreams broken

Well the story continues...Munga is back and after his wife and Sweet Ronnie....they ran off to Jamaica and Munga is not a happy camper
Ron: all instruments and vocals
Lady Jane's one woman band! No loops today - I got all my instruments out - all being guitar (played with plectrum in neck without realising - oops!), bongos, rain stick, ting sha bells, tibetan singing bowl and tinkly bell thing from my miniature…
There's not a drop of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the puddles of this war.
But the blood that's spilled's become a flood
of the hungry and the poor.
There is not a trace of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the bags that hang beside
the beds of legless soldiers…

That's great news about getting a song in the movie!
Sounds like we have a celebrity in our midst.

Lovely rocking rhythm right up there with your best Greg.
perfect Greg song I do really like this.
Just beautiful Greg
Great to hear this again...
The most beautiful, gorgeous Sea Shanty I've ever hear. So haunting, chilling, gripping... I'm in awe. The instrumentation, the melody -- you're a marvelous talent. Too real! Wow -- just wow!
So gorgeous!
Ha ha! Very cool! Rock on!
The flute is especially beautiful in this one.
Particularly enjoyable!
BEAUTIFUL!
I like the distorted, fuzzy overdrive guitar over the clean sound. Nicely recorded vocals.
Party on! I like that grungy guitar. Really enjoyed the beat -- this song is a lot of fun.
<3 !!! GREAT JOB !!! <3
A most tastefully executed bass guitar, a ever so sweet melody, and gently gorgeous lyrics. Awesome job. You sure got your art together.
wow wow wow, sign me up,,im there,, fine fine,,great sound!!! r
Nice blues, especially the harmonica!
Is that you or Mark on 'monica , who ever Brill......
You got some great friends Greg, in my mind, what great band we could be. If you accept me ........ Love guys
Oh this is the stuff. Damn fine... I know someone who occasionally "collects" poppy seeds for planting in her own garden, can you get 3 to 5 for that?
Great stuff. And that's a truly fabulous vocal sound you've captured there - the intro was rolling along nicely and then, when the vocal came in, I just went "YESSS"

Great way to build a song. . . Keep them coming!
Beautiful. It's as if the experience of flying is at hand.
Nice guitar sound.
I like it. The song has a subtle power that keeps building.
That's pretty good. If all else fails . . . Make Friends. I love it!
Very refreshing presentation. I like the message "All I needs is love". Reminds me of one of my heros . . . Tom Waites.
Entertaining and VERY Unexpected.
you got me laughing out loud on this one. Very colorful lyrics.
Munga may be back, but my vote is for "Sweet Ronnie" Go get em Tiger!
Beautiful
That's some fine playing Roger! One line really caught my attention: "She loves me so much, I have to ask my sorry ass why".
I love the Yodeling. Wouldn't it be great to wake up every morning Yodeling?
Very Pretty That harmony sounds fantastic
Norm said it . . . "This is great fun!" Nice going guys.
Nothing better than a party with all the instruments out at once! Sounds like you are having fun.
Nothing better than a "Big Mama" The harmonica is a nice touch.
This is a good reminder of Doc. Nice picking John.

How are you doing with the Texas Songwriter contest. I found Kavin's comment on the forum. I think that is pretty neat James! I hope you win!
