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.

The first of 4 tunes coming your way with
the spotlight on my friend "Michael Thomas of Cave Street"

This one is my favorite and chills me every time I hear it.
It never, ever, gets old.
Until Then (Shine…
Thanks Regs for making my crappy music in to great songs.
Enjoy!!!
Sunday morning and she’s gone
Sunday morning all day long
She’s gone
Now she’s gone I don’t feel a thing
I’m so happy i’m free again
She’s gone
She thought…
This track was created as part of the October 2010 Alonetone 24 hr challenge. The challenge is to make 24 minutes of original music in one 24 hour period.
he's not blown away like a stray star
he's not stolen clean away by a fast car
but…
There’s a fire in your eyes
It burns, it bleeds
A raging wind inside
knocks me off my feet
You light up like a sunbeam
And you run through my bloodstream
All the time
Your light, it blinds
My sight, my eyes
I’m struck by lightning
You’re forked…
Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!
Uploaded just in time for the American Thanksgiving holiday, this is a kids song that can also be appreciated by the grownup crowd.
Written by my brother David who has a real knack for this sort of songwriting. It's our first long-distance…
This is an instrumental, really 2 songs. The 1st part is funky with Tom Pecard on sax. The 2nd part is a carnival, polka thing inspired by Wisconsin. Hope you dig it.
addressing the dividing disparity. in earnings, this one is based roughly on "railroading on the great divide" I stopped a little short so others may add verses of their own.
Samples used in this tune from the NY subway this summer. Inspired by Dave Dunseath
3-12, just uploaded a new version of this with guitar- and some other changes
Interesting subject matter in a world filled with high achievers buying their way to prosperity.
I like the message here. I think we need more of that.
Beautiful.
I'm curious what you are using for your wind instruments. It sounds similar to an Akai Professional EWI4000S. I have been admiring them from afar for a while now.
So after hearing some of Stephen Krell's outstanding picking, I asked him if he'd like to play along with any of my songs... I can't be happier with the one he picked to add his banjo to (seeing as how the song is written about my favorite Pete…
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)

Very Pretty story telling. I've been to Deadwood. What a place to spend eternity.
Nice guitar work.
What a great song! Nice job on this one.
Great Song! It reminds me of one of my heros, David Bromberg.
Beautiful. It just carries the listener away.
That interplay between piano and slide guitar is like "Beauty and the Beast". What a great combination!
A lot of passion here. Nice going.
Now that's music! First Class John !!!
That's pretty neat!
One of my favorite songs.
This is really pretty! I love that keyboard/harpsichord sound on this.
This one was a treat. I'll be thinking of "Turkey's Lament" on Thursday when I say "Please pass the Tur....potatoes"
Less is More. It's amazing what can be accomplished with "No Name" guitar, old harmonica, and a playful frame of mind.
Nice playing and great sounds out of that guitar.
This one really captured my attention.
There is that Woody Guthrie sound again! Very nice Terry.

Wonderful easy listening that develops all through the piece.
What a nice collaboration between the two of you.
