Lyrics
Cry of Love
Cry of love, heard in the meadow
Watching the wind blow
With love in the air
Cry of love, answered by another
Who courts the same lovers
With sounds of despair
Cry of love, heard in the daylight
Still crying…
Lyrics:
Crazy people, wander round all night
Looking toward the Heavens
At little specs of light
Dragging round their telescopes
And Binoculars
All the tools they need to gaze among the stars
Crazy people, look at what they do…
Lyrics:
Crazy people, wander round all night
Looking toward the Heavens
At little specs of light
Dragging round their telescopes
And Binoculars
All the tools they need to gaze among the stars
Crazy people, look at what they do…
Written for a song challenge to bring awareness to the flooding this past Spring in Australia.
The song was required to have the phrase "water is rising".
Lyrics:
Crazy people, wander round all night
Looking toward the Heavens
At little specs of light
Dragging round their telescopes
And Binoculars
All the tools they need to gaze among the stars
Crazy people, look at what they do…
When you look up at the night sky from where you live does the milky way burn bright. Clusters of stars glowing from time that passed us by. Are there certain crisp, clear, windless nights, the moon hanging on the dark side and every star seemed just a little brighter then before. As far as you could see there was shimmering light flickering from the faintest and most distant stars. I try to imagine what the night sky would have looked like 30,000 years ago or a million years. How much more did stars shine before we were here. Before electricity people probably paid more attention to the night skies
Cool song Greg. I never had a convertible Mustang but had a blue 1967 2 door. I had it for over 10 years and it was a neat car, but like most cars of that era began to cost big bucks to keep it running like it should, to say nothing of rust. I sold it to a teenager who did some body and engine work and I'd see it around town once in awhile. Never had had the itch for a convertible, but hey, have fun!

One of my offspring is a keen astronomer, with a huge telescope. She is also extremely knowledgeable
on the subject. Don't know about your title there, but absolutely love the song and the music is gorgeous.

Thanks for listening ........
SLEEP WHILE I DRIVE
Baby you can sleep while I drive
The Stars shine bright as I’ll slip the car into overdrive
I’ve got faith showing me the way out to the dream
Out into that brand new day
Where hopes…

I know I should be working on National Solo Album Month, but I'm two timing this month and working on more re-recordings as well. This is the first song for volume three.
I wrote this in 2016 during my June album in a month project. I had…
This isn't the best song I've ever written. I think that one is on the Quarantine Tunes Volume 1 playlist. No, it's not the best but... I'm pretty sure it's my favorite song I've ever written. Not because of the quality of the song, but because…
Well I'm always searching for different sounds to add to my songs, hopefully I've have here. Mind you, learning to play Violins, Violas and Cellos took a bit of

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…

I got a call from Russell. He had to move his junk
He’d filled his car. He’d filled his trunk
Big black bags of something. I said, “What’s with these?”
He said, “It’s dirty laundry.” I said, “That’s crazy.”
So, he…
That’s a nice piece of music! I pictured downhill skiing or snowboarding. I’ll admit, we had a whole week of snow last week. That may be why I’m thinking along those lines.

There was a field around the corner
And a stream flowed cross the field
There were cat tails in the summer time
And monarch butterflies
And tadpoles sprouting wings

A simple one-track mandolin tune. In fact it's the first tune I ever made on the mandolin. I think it would be better with a bodhran drum accompanying it, but I don't know how to play those!
Maybe someday this will work its way into something…
A friend asked me,
"Don't you have any happy songs?"
So I wrote one!

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Are those antlers or is he just happy to see her
Dang you, Greg. Now I have a strong desire to stuff that cheap shrieking plywood reso of mine in the woodstove and get one that sounds like this!
loving that classic song writing style @Greg Conner
this one nicely composed!
What lovely featured slide playing. Great song Greg!
Big grins for your lyrics. Been there, thinking that. Gawd but I'm glad we sold that old box of a minivan years ago. ER
Go Greg.
Looooong road, yup thats a real deep feel. Wow love it, Slidey right into Faved
Slip slidin' away, holdin' on just a little farther down that road
well played.
I love me some Greg Connor music in the morning.
Love the laid back approach. Great lyrics! John B.
My mom was an avid bird watcher. The clip of the cardinal finch reminded me of her... it was her favorite of favorite birds.
Nice work....

Stargazing does have a way of putting things in perspective.
If your head is in the syars, your hearts in thr right place.(smile)

Yes, this is right up my alley.
Melancholy feeling drifting along through the haze.
Excellent!
Walking down memory lane this morning. This song becomes more appropriate every year that goes by.
I used to know this girl a long, Long, LONG time ago.
Great tone! Thanks for explaining it in the description.
Another sonic blast of great tone.
Oh ..... I like this.
Good tribute to a good friend.
A multi Instrumentalist? Can I have your autograph? This is a really nice song, even though there's a little hanky panky going on.
EXCELLENT! Reminds me of a blow up doll my friend once had. Everything you ever wanted.
I think there are a lot of us who are one step away from Russell’s situation.
That’s a nice piece of music! I pictured downhill skiing or snowboarding. I’ll admit, we had a whole week of snow last week. That may be why I’m thinking along those lines.
Simply a work of genius
that was fun!
This is good! It makes me happy too.
This made me happy!
Oh . . . This is GOOD.
Love it ❤️ A big scoop of attitude with less trick and more treat!
You are setting the pace. This is a thought provoking situational presentation Well done.
