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

Those acoustics are awesome...the harp....i love it! Good ole americana! I was just watching some Jackson Browne w/ David Lindley http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1aYheuSEZI&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Reminds me of what u r throwin down.
Boy oh Boy.... Have I ever missed playing live with these two wonderful guys!!!! Recorded last week in my front yard with Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren. An original tune I wrote from the times before the pandemic, but all the sweeter to be able…
The Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn Forming the Christmas
Star left we here breathless. I fiddled with the big foot telescope, Kim with her Ceremonial feathers and all, but we ended just holding hands
Best of everything…
Well the song tells the story of the morning.... a lovely bleak, cold day. I decided on a simple a cappella arrangement to fit the feeling of the day.
Happy Winter Solstice everyone! To brighter days ahead!!!!
My Old Bones Know Better…

A few of you may know this from my old account. If not it's a new one Ha, Ha.
Seems to be from another Time and Space now ..... And a silly video for youu ...

We decided to share one more piece of cherry pie! Thanks Greg Connor for this now epic song. Thanks to Paul for his beautiful music. Always a ton of fun to collaborate with!!!
Black is white
White is black
I crossed the line
I can’t go back
It all comes together
It all falls apart
I’m on the edge
From the start
I’ve gone Colour Blind
To her signs, Colour Blind
Tears on your face
A broken heart
Unkind…
A great little collaboration with Greg Connor and Colleen Dillon.
Merry Christmas to Everyone ......
And a silly little video :

well this will be kind of random for my listeners... but what the "hey" as they say!
In a bit of a writing desert lately, but had a lovely walk two days ago, and got inspired by the sounds coming from newly frozen ice with at least 1000 migrating…
This brought a smile! I love the backup singers. They mix with the uke and your voice perfectly. Excellent message as well.
Favorite, Favorite, Favorite🦢

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
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
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.
I love the minor feel...great stuff Greg...with a little electric it could remind me of early Traffic!!!!! think "40 Thousand Headmen"
Well, now that's a huge winner. I'll sign up for. This! So, real. You are a most talented man, Faved,Faved, Faved. I am listening
This is lovely x
Aw, lovely track Greg. Super stuff.
What a great song, beautiful layered "voices" and rich, clear mix. Lovely tone on all the instruments!
Well, I told you that every man thing works every time.........Excellent. @2:59 I saw the light :)

Beautiful song, great imagery. The view from your window is a LOT better than mine.
I love that 12 String. Excellent song.
I’m laughing out loud again! That was fun singing your great song, all 3 of us in the same room again after 15 months.
I love it . . . Way to go guys!
First song of the new year and great uplifting message
Beautiful and melancholy at the same time.
Oh that Frankie, lots of ideas! I’m really impressed with the sound of you guitars. That 12 string is the perfect accent to the electric.
Beautiful song! We’ve been looking but have not seen the event yet. Hopefully we’ll get a clear night soon.
Replay . . . Third time thru . . . You got a keeper there!
Love it. As bare as a winter's chill.
Lovely, this will be different but definitely a Christmas to remember.
Listening to your Colab O Rama this morning! https://alonetone.com/cetdillon/playlists/collab-o-rama Lots of great songs in one place.
Ahhhh .... a walk down memory lane this morning!
Strolling along the archives this morning and came across this little gem!
Good fun you guys! Now we’re one step closer to holiday cheer.
Outstanding! The music just grabbed me and the vocal lifted me right off the ground!
This brought a smile! I love the backup singers. They mix with the uke and your voice perfectly. Excellent message as well. Favorite, Favorite, Favorite🦢
A nice lilting piece of music
Good foot tapping song!
Ahhhhh, the good old days. It’s good to let things go and move on sometimes.
