Today I learned 2 things: 1) Mick Jagger turns 66 tomorrow (a horrifying thought, to be sure), and 2) one of my loop CDs contains vocals from a man who does a good job imitating him. Soooo, with some appreciation for Mick's accomplishments, and…
Autobiographical songs are the best but I'm especially looking forward to the next one because I know it will be "I have found the perfect job - go me!" x

FOR THE RECORD. I am aware of some less-than-ideal notes that I almost hit in this, and am hoping to send ER an improved vocal at some stage! Also, I didn't write any of this - and feel awkward about the praise. Thanks for your support though, guys. Yeay! :-)
Written by Tangmo. Additional instruments by Trevitte Brown.
A song about writing songs that isn't really about song-writing, and knows it is being written.

Hey everybody, come out in the streets now
Hey everybody, let's have a good time
Bring along your cooler, there's good food to eat now…
I was listening to Leonard Cohen a lot this winter, and these lyrics sort of came out from there...don't know what they really mean, i was more interested in trying to see if I could mimic Leonard's style, which of course I can't, but this was…
En Francais.
English lyric:
I don't know why there is not another girl for me here
Or near here,
But over there are plenty of girls for him
What a shame - what a shame
Every day I watch the men and boys with girls on the beach…
A song about the five stages of grieving, as devised by the (late) Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Unfortunately knowing these stages does not help you get over them.
You've been managing expectations
Consultations end in tears
Even if you're optimistic…
Bit of a waltz.
Everything I know about dancing I learned from watching.
This is my piano debut.
Bethan deserves some of the blame for this one somehow. Thanks.
We have an old and senile cat with a dodgy thyroid gland who is a total pain in the bum. I know she can't help it but god she annoys me, so this song is therapy. It's a love/hate thing. Recorded as part of RPM 2010
I have a cat that loves to sit on my lap every time I sit down at my PC. I can't find the right lyrics to write about her, but I'm sure I'll find the inspiration after hearing this song. Laughed when I heard it.

this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head
would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in
thanks
I stopped by to listen to this year's album, and again I am green with envy. I wish I could play anywhere near as well. Great guitar work, sir. A pleasure to listen to.

This one is about how falling in love kind of involves giving up any say in whether or not your heart gets trampled. It's about that fear. Gary doing a sterling job as usual on lead guitar..
She's amazing
Beauty holds no bounds
and her voice…
Stopped by to listen to this year's effort. Liked most of what I heard. I agree that falling in love involves fear, risk, and not a little anxiety. I know those emotions well.
ER
I mostly wanted to make music with a funky clav line I'd come up with, so this is it. For the voiceover, I unabashedly used an awesome monologue by Ken Nordine.
Just stopped by to listen to your 2010 album. I liked a number of the songs, including the K Beam, and loved the Sho Be Do. You're never too old to sing, by the way. Well done.
ER
Allelujiah-This was supposed to be a completely different song, but this one just wrote itself instead. It’s almost all first take, except for the bass, which took a while to get straight so that it wouldn’t overwhelm the song. It has this tone…
Hey Gary - I listened to your album on the RPM jukebox, and this is my favorite so far. I'll probably change my mind later, but I like the harmonies you did, and I find myself singing the chorous at random times. Well done, sir. I liked all the songs and I'll be loading them into my MP player once I finish downloading.
Regards.
ER
Hey old friend! Glad you liked my work from this year's challenge. This song in particular has been my favorite of this album. It captures the essence of how rediculous it is for Kylie to have her own museum. I also like The Dogs Name. I wonder if my better half thinks of me in those terms once in awhile. Oh, wait, we have cats.
Welcome to the site and I'll stop by from time to time for a listen.

A parent grows into his role just as a child grows up. Funny how it works that way, isn't it? Nice song about it. ER

I like the guitar rhythm on this. The lyrics are good, too. Nice song. ER
Just stopped by for a listen. I like your approach to blues. It's simple, accoustic, and very enjoyable. ER

Love the groove on this. And I often wonder where the hell I'm going as well. Then I know I'm having my version of a blond moment. ER
