I think I remember saying once, about one of your other songs, that it was the best one yet. Now I am forced to change my mind. This is really good all the way around - lyrics, melody, arrangement, instrumentation - great job Greg.
Lyrics:
After the Sun goes down
Lay in bed no sleep to be found
And the shadows dance on walls
After the Sun goes down
Just a reflecting time
The clock just seems to unwind
The silence gets so loud
Just a reflecting time
It won…

Oh it's just fab.
You've actually got me singing along on this one. Doesn't happen too often - I'm usually sat hear listening and thinking, but this one had me singing out loud.

OH WOW!!
I saw this arrive the other day but didn't have time to listen. Then I saw the reaction it was getting, so I thought, ooo he must have hit the spot with this one...
I've been saving it up for the right moment lol (7.45 am on sunny saturday at the start of two weeks off - that'll do!)
And WOW! You've definitely hit the spot. Love it.

Reminiscent of Neil Young and certainly as good a song as just about any of his. Never did like his voice though. Yours works well with this tune and instrumentation.

Man, This sweet. I sure wish there was a site that featured Story songs like this!
Best new song in ages. Love the that low Irish pipe sound. I does not remind me of anyone but Greg Connor. 5 stars

My light-hearted take on a serious issue.
Over- prescription of powerful and addictive drugs, and the unknown and (to some) worrying relationship between doctors and the drug companies.

A Piece of Pi is our newest composition. It’s a brief summary of the story “Life of Pi”. A wonderful story needs a wonderful song. Hopefully we can meet this challenge and find like-minded people out there.
Well done...
Ooh, I just got to the vocal. Nice, and I like that bass too.
8 minutes of enjoyment. Just enough time to take a look at your website posted on your profile.
I recorded this one a while back for a short film which I am told will be out soon.
It's a reworking of my earlier piece, [gypsy caravan](http://alonetone.com/colingarvey/tracks/gypsy-caravan).
A bit of a musical kinda song.....
I DID WRONG
Counting on my fingers, counting on my toes, the years go by, but life is so slow
where life leads, to where it goes ,where it’s heading, no one really knows
But a small mistake a wrong place…
This is Fun! We may have to do this again in a few weeks.
I'm planning to sing this live tomorrow night at the Rosemont Jam. Harley will be playing bass. We could use some harmony if you are free.
I wrote another verse, subject to approval and Tweaking:
Broken Windows throwing stones
I don’t know how to heal these bones
I tripped and fell hurt more than my pride
If only my woman was by my side
I’ve been down this road before
I found myself on the cold hard floor
I picked myself up and carried on
Now my woman, now she’s gone
Honey I’m comin, home to you
A broken man, who’s sad and Blue
I need you back, and I’ll be true
Honey I’m comin home to you
I’ve spend my life, in foolish ways
Makin bad decisions, and then I pay
And it hurts me more, than you know
I’m Comin home again, broken so
MORE WINE!
Once in a nightmare
I knew you then
I think we were related,
I'm not sure
maybe we were strangers.
We'd look in windows and climb
the trees that grew,
and if it'd rained outside
we'd take off our shoes.
And when I'd see you
I would…
I remember a long time a go, there was a band called "It's a Beautiful Day". They had a song called "White Bird".
I don't know why, but this song reminds me of that sound. I love it.
Very retro sounding guitar too.

Here's my last studio effort of the summer, as we roll into fall!
I wrote this one earlier in the year sipping mojito's at the proverbial beach bar and then posted it here.... I thought I'd give it a little sprucing up with the help from my…
This song is a improv guitar with some modifications in audacity.

Wow . . . Talk about involking images. This is neat.
This would make GREAT background music for the "Talk Like a Pirate" Challenge going on right now.

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
really fine,, is that both a penny whistle and flute?
Captures the feel of the lyrics beautifully.
great voice..your music reminds me of something,
Digging your music right away! The vocals are incredible, and sound great even on PC speakers - Wow! And a well crafted tune to boot!
Really enjoyed this song, fine job Greg.
Real good Greg. Perfect track man.
Very lovely track!

Excellent song Greg. As usual strong on the melody and lyrics.
Thats a fine looking tractor and a fine set of songs, here's to you, CHEERS!
Lovely song Greg - :)

Excellent ....thoroughly enjoyed......
Makes me lonesome, and stirs my wonder lust. I see visions of Walt Whitman

Is that a mandolin in the background? Oh this is wonderful!
Such a great song Greg! Love the addition of the whistle and the flute sounding like the wind, fabulous! Lovely
Im glad to hear this music is alive and well. It reminds me of Gordon Lightfoot.

Very Refreshing. I wasn't expecting this, it's good fun.
Nice Bass with Strat / keyboard Introduction. And then it gets even better.

I just found you on YouTube . . . Good Stuff James! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IL1HCW3uzE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRukvPERWZk
Power piece of music! That harmonica sounds pretty good.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . . that felt good !!!
Love the piano! Good humor.
I love that powerful voice of yours!
I noticed that you are getting a lot more fidelity out of your recorder than me. Let's remember that for next time.
Ahhhhh . . . There it is. The Glass song that we were talking about the other day!

Nice picking and bending!
Refreshing . . . . You have a great style.
Holy Cow !!!!!!!!!!
Outstanding Colleen! All three of these songs recorded at F5 Studio are excellent.
Wow . . . Talk about involking images. This is neat. This would make GREAT background music for the "Talk Like a Pirate" Challenge going on right now. http://alonetone.com/forums/making-music/topics/challenge-pirate-some-music
I like that touch of adding new instrument voicing at different times of the song. It freshens everything up. Well done.
Tranquil and inviting! The loop that comes in at the end is a great idea, but it distracted me from the easy listening.
. . I Love It !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is GREAT Fun.
