There is a story behind this song. I'll leave it at that for now.

This is really poignant. Such heartfelt storytelling. I feel like it should be the soundtrack to a Ken Burns movie. Just excellent all around! Instant fav!,!

Sunshine fill my soul
Let the blues be the first to go
Sunshine can’t complain
If life shows us a little rain
Chorus
Sunshine through the window
At first morning’s light
All the stars fade away
When sunshine gets so bright
When sunshine…

Like it. I just read Colleen's comment and realised that I was bopping my head along with the tempo too! Loved that "oh yeah" at the end of the bridge.

The puppies and I really like this one. I turned it on and they stopped to listen and started bopping their heads along with the upbeat tempo. Love the happy visuals!

Love this song. And glad you made it without breaking something

Once again, Greg Connor has kindly added his wonderful harmonica and Dobro to this song. Thanks so much, Greg! Mean Streak Blues is a song about how wrongly we could deal with frustration....enjoy listening
Lyrics:
Dogs bark all night

Oh yes, this is the stuff. Thanks for the invitation to *"season"* your song a little.
It was fun pulling out that old Dobro and bottle neck. This song is just made for it!
Sometimes it's hard to figure out what just happened. And then again it's sometimes hard to figure out something that happened years ago.
(To answer the question by the commenter, that's all me and my little self all alone in the basement…
Hey all, which Greed version do you prefer? :)
Lead guitar, organ, and drums added by Vic Lyn. He did a great job - extremely talented and insightful with music. Thanks so much, Vic. (Check out Vic's website: www.avlstudios.com

Tis the season... so thought I would go for a repeat!!!.....Merry ho ho Christmas!!!

My instrumental cover of Christina Aguilera's song "Beautiful" I guess I am ready for the old folks home!!!! ...now that I am doing ballads!!!
I just happen to really like the chord progression and thought I would try an instrumental cover…
This is a request from Gene Eric Mann
one of mine and Andy's older ones...we envisioned this a a soundtrack for a horror movie....Andy thought of the story because his son likes to go into the woods near his house and brng back sticks!!
this is…
Unique, and very interesting.
I like how both Justin and Gene love it. They have an interesting ability to always agree. I have to concede, they're both right on this one!
Another oldie form Andy and I and requested by Gene Eric Mann....this one is about a friend of Andy's that had a drug problem....Andy wrote all the lyrics and plays rhythm guitar...weird guitar parts and all other instruments sre me and me playing…
We've always adored this song, there is another version but decided to re-record it. Now I think the Good Wife sounds quite good, when I think of the crap health problems she endured over the last 4 years. I am bias of course !!!! Lastly apologies…
This song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…
One I wrote about 5 or 6 years ago, very different to the old version. It came about because of the shameful treatment of the soldiers coming back injured from that S**t hole of a country by the British Gov. They were forced into doing much more…
Justin Otter Guy (just another guy) and Gene Eric Mann (generic man) are the same musician. My originals are penned as Gene tunes (alonetone.com/mythopoetica) and my covers are uploaded as Justin tunes (/redshirt).
This is another GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY piece from the VOICES CD...
DIAMOND - Monster Wave
It started with an earthquake half a mile below
Belching like a bull whip to make the water blow
Monster in the making, Frankenstein unchained
Gravity…
A tune for Halloween.
I wanted to do something creepy. It works.
All Alone
I turn your knob
and throw Spot a bone
I palm your panties
when your not home
I turn the lights off
and cut your phone
I feel your fears
when you all…

Lyrics:
I don’t care for love and happiness
I got myself a yacht and a mansion
I don’t believe in God and religion
I got myself sixty four billion
Greed, greed, greed is what I need
Greed, greed, greed is what…
You have some great lines here . . . *Got Myself A High Priced Honey"*
Judging from the headlines in the news lately I think I might have a hint where the inspiration for this song came from.
Well done Nick!
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Oh, and GREAT PIPES part!
I like the "leave it at that for now" intro! Let the listener fill in the background; you've sketched out the foreground quite nicely.
Well done!
Well-crafted song and production. Good job Greg!
This is really poignant. Such heartfelt storytelling. I feel like it should be the soundtrack to a Ken Burns movie. Just excellent all around! Instant fav!,!
That's great Greg, what a Tapestry you weaved through words and music.
Oh yes. Love the pictures you're painting in my mind.
What a toe tapper.... I love the lyrics and tunes. You can just be the sun shine getting brighter and brighter as you sing this tune.
That's really fun! What a great topic for a song ha ha. Well done.
Really fun song and you guitar playing is amazing :) The lyrics very uplifting ....needing that!

ooh , a little bit of the Beatles in there to my ear , love it ......
another winner...great chorus and I like the bridge!
Good stuff ....
Came back for another! Wait!!! It feels like I’ve heard this before. Woodchucks!!! (Lame groundhogs day reference) Love this song. And glad you made it without breaking something
too funny...great chorus!! ...... you win
OMG! Hilarious!!!!! True story? Just a pigment of your imagination maybe? Woodchuck hallucinations indicate a need for MORE WINE!
Came back for another listen. Love this so much. I can imagine you doing a whole album about historic subjects. I’d definitely listen to that!
Amazing lyrics. Wonder song and nice tribute.
Comments made by Greg Connor
Very romantic. I like that syncopated rhythm.

You really know how to tickle an emotion. I love it James!
I just listened to them back to back. Both good, but, the acoustic version has my vote. It has that raw feel to it. Both good though.
NOW I'M IN THE MOOD !!!! Let the festivities commence.
You got my feet tapping with this one! Great Mix.
I had to press play for another listen this morning.
Unique, and very interesting. I like how both Justin and Gene love it. They have an interesting ability to always agree. I have to concede, they're both right on this one!
Good one guys!
This is a great groove. Very inviting.
Interesting bits of music! It will be fun to hear the finished result.
I don't know the original either, but I like this. Both of you sound *GREAT!*
Beautiful Andrew!
Interesting subject matter. The reality of war almost makes a person sick thinking about it. You put this together nicely though. A great tribute.
You sound a lot like my friend Gene! *Coincidence?* . . . . You got me chuckling this morning. Sincerely, *Justin Time*
I may have to download this to give the kids a chill tonight on Halloween! *WHO'S THERE ?*
*OMG* . . . You scared the Hell out of me!
I'm winking right back at you . . . *Birds of a feather*.
*BIGGER THAN LIFE* . . . Again
You have some great lines here . . . *Got Myself A High Priced Honey"* Judging from the headlines in the news lately I think I might have a hint where the inspiration for this song came from. Well done Nick!
