I’m just a pawn in your little game

I agree with all the previous comments. The mix is great and the electric guitar is very well done - nice phrasing and placement. And your lyric-writing abilities are also in full swing!

Great guitar playing Greg.....I don't think you give yourself enough credit as an electric player...great tone and very tasteful playing!!
This is one of your best songs in my opinion....I can hear this one on the radio.
You should send this one to the Eagles to see if they would record it...seriously!

Nice and jazzy. You sound like you are enjoying yourself.

Well...This is song #10 for my 2022 RPM challenge- the final track for my "album". It's a bit like two songs that found each other somehow. That makes for a very long track! eek. Thank you to everyone who has been listening to my songs...it…
It’s been a fun February listening to both you and Andrew Russe achieve your goals. You have ended up with 10 songs, well crafted and recorded in a way that makes them interesting.
Well done!

The calluses from all this bass playing are coming along nicely! This is another RPM song (song 6) where I built the song from a little bass riff. The lyrics include some quotes and/or references - pick them out and win a prize (ha ha…
My 7th song for the 2022 RPM challenge. This one is a bit more pensive and slow moving. I always love adding harmony. I was thinking of Bjork (who I love) when I wrote it. I included some flute so my sister can play along next time we jam…
Sultry ... Another excellent song, especially considering that you are writing and recording 1 every 2 days. Number 7? I think I've missed a couple. I'll have to go back and look.

Song 3 of RPM 2022. For the many tortured artists I've met with a bit of a dance spin to it. Most of my songs are unintentional and unplanned....they just happen. Thanks to anyone who's listening!! :)
The Minnesota Association of Songwriters issued a writing challenge this January to "borrow" conceptually from a writer that has influenced our writing to create a new original work of our own. Once you hear this, I think you'll get the idea…

I'm an acoustic maniac. But I love this. Very very tasty. And seriously good lyrics for our times. A keeper for sure.
I agree with thems what say this is a great piece of work and one of The best of the Greg songs.

Good mixing.

Let’s hope you’re singing about Eunice who just blew in and out your life. Good riddance.
It’s a keeper! You are making lemonade out of lemons. My friend Roger Harris (oldfolks2) from Portsmouth sent me a video of the Eunice destruction. Your song captures the essence.

You are a smoking hot song writer these days. These are all great songs and an ispiration to the rest of us.
Great story telling. I love the Tattoo part. Some of those never wash off. Maybe that can be your next song.
Lovely.
I love it! Great title and topic for this song.
Great Folk flavored song and lyrics. It's nice to hear this kind of music. We need more of it.
You are on a ROLL One after another. You go girl !!!!!
Sultry ... Another excellent song, especially considering that you are writing and recording 1 every 2 days. Number 7? I think I've missed a couple. I'll have to go back and look.
Great sounding guitar and over all recording. You have the touch with Logic Pro.
Beautiful
That’s a great sounding demo Andrew! I share your thoughts on RPM. I did it for several years, but now I would rather take my time.
OMG, now that’s the blues.
Song 4 on day 6 of the RPM Challenge! That’s impressive. 4 excellent songs so far.
Well done! I enjoyed this
Introspective and touching. A heartfelt emotional message.
Yes .... I like this!
Another listen …. Conclusion … you are one of the best songwriters on this site.
