What if Bo Peep were a bit of a b*tch? If I knew her when she was like that, I might write a song like this.

Hey, Bo.
Where did they all go?
Hey Bo.
What do you know?
Maybe I could help you
In your quest.
Maybe I could…
The lyrics for this song were inscribed on the headstone when the legendary character Tom Thumb died. Inge did the vocals for this song and did a wonderful job. The harmonies, along with the a capella intro and coda, are hers, and take the song…

I fell in love with Miss Muffet. This may not be my best vocal effort, but it's all I can do with it. I'd be happy to let someone else try it. Any volunteers from the studio audience?

Let me help you.
Let me calm…
Guess where this story came from?

I really don't like your grandmother.
Those teeth, that nose
And that nasty disposition.
Keeps givin' me that hungry eye
And that awkward proposition.
"Come closer, much closer…
Time for a little humor. I had my wisdom teeth pulled last year, and the pain was debilitating. When I got the right pain meds, I felt so much better that I wrote this song. Colin added his considerable vocal talents and his harmonica and brought…

This was written at a time when things weren't going so well for me. This will be my last upload until after the RPM Challenge.

A song about making choices.
Life moves in small steps
By the choices we all make.
We decide by will and pride
The path we'd like to take.
And the places we end up
And the people we will know
We'll see, you and me
By where we choose…

This is an answer to the question posed to me by Bethan Mathis. This is how I've been feeling this week. I'm okay. I've just come to the realization about the rhythm of life.

Upbeat groove with a bittersweet message! Interesting juxtaposition - good to hear something new for you. Looking forward to your RPM project next year.

Thank God!... Something up-beat. One of my colleagues has THE party of the year on Labor Day weekend every year, and I play around the bonfire from dusk until everyone is unconscious... and the ladies like to dance.
I've been listening to several of your songs, and I very much like what I've been hearing. You play and sing very well. Will be back to listen to more later.

"The pictures that she paints while you're keeping time might just make you think again if you don't believe in the divine." Simply, it's a delicate little song appreciating the talents behind a beautifully written and performed song with the…
Paper Girls is one of those tracks which I wrote based on my experiences that I hope others can relate to in their own way. Soft, breathy vocals courtesy of Anezka Piska.
This is the centrepiece of the album; my self-confessed preferred track to RPM HQ. Powerful vocals by Jen Gibbons and heavy beats supplied by Chris Thomas. The drum track was heavily overdriven to crispen it up and the kick was given a lot of…
I've gone more acoustic for this piece with bass and guitars courtesy of Jaz Arwand and the lovely, airy sound of Jess Spencer's voice. The song is about empathy or lack thereof.
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.
A song for/about Charles Manson.

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…
I like this one. The slow rock beat and the guitar sound on the solos tells me you were getting out some anger or strong feelings when you did this.
ER
Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
Beware all ye who enter here. This song's a stern warning that being the front man of a band is not what it's cracked up to be. Consider yourself warned.
An obvious reference to the classic movie, "Blues Brothers" (which takes place in Chicago -- where we're from), this song tells the cliched story of the band that reunites after years away from each other thanks to "creative differences", "growing…
This is us tempting fate. Jumping the shark refers to a defining moment on the TV show "Happy Days" when Fonzie literally jumps over a shark on waterskis -- all while wearing his leather jacket. Everyone watching immediately knew the show would…

Good One!
This really caught my attention. It's different and very interesting.
this is really good.
So, tell aunty Bee, how long have you been harbouring feelings for Little Miss Muffet, exactly? Very sweetly done Terry.
You are AMAZING! I love your voice. I love the irony in your songs, I love everything! You are GREAT!!!!
Hahaha ... nice!!
Love the music to this one Terry. Lovely Vocal Inge.
"All the better to hear you with, my dear!" She's trying to stop you being the wolf!
Sounding great!
Nice work...
Ha, that's what I did Terry. I was singing along to JM when I first heard his song.
Hellish funky backing here! Proper shoulder twitcher Terry.
Aw, am glad you wrote this in the past and things are happier now.
Nice job....
Yea ... at first this seems like a standard rock song ... but after listening to the words ... its good-old preaching time! ... nice
Optomistic song here Terry! Your backing music is rockingly good! Merry Christmas
Digging the raunchy backing music! Happy song for the holidays, ER!
Polished track E.R. Good to hear something new from you. I dig the cool guitar wah-wah break.
Upbeat groove with a bittersweet message! Interesting juxtaposition - good to hear something new for you. Looking forward to your RPM project next year.
wow i love the base

Very nice. Your guitar work is excellent. Love the chords.
Another very good song. Nice vocals, too. I like the slow yet steady beat. ER
I like this too. I like the melody and the vocal work most of all. ER
I like the vocals on this, including some of the reverb and echo effects. Using an accoustic guitar for this was a good choice. ER
I like this. Sounds good. I like the beat and the lyrics. ER
I don't need much encouragement to sound intoxicated. Oh, wait, I usually am! The band sounds good, and so do you. ER
So is your nickname "Spuds"? Very funny song, sir. I admire your courage to do this acapella. ER
Don't know about blaming Bethan for anything, but I liked the intro. Is this a kind of Hokey Pokey in 3/4 time? Love the lyrics. Well done. ER
My boss thinks he's a donkey jockey. He's always riding my . . . ahem, this is a family site. Sorry. Nice song, though. ER
And a man doesn't just cook, he barbecues! He's a gourmet, right? ER
Love those harmonies. This reminds me of very early BeeGees music. ER
The "ShooBeDoBa" at the beginning gave me a start, but I like the song overall. Nice harmonies. ER
I like this one. The slow rock beat and the guitar sound on the solos tells me you were getting out some anger or strong feelings when you did this. ER
I think the lyrics work fine with this, amigo. ER
Nice light little tune you have here, Gumbo. Liked it a lot. ER
I have enjoyed all of the songs I've heard from your band since I bought the Cheapass Album. Keep rockin', boys, and you'll never go wrong. ER
I've heard this so often that it's part of my subconscious. But I never expected my wife to say that. LOL ER
Love the melody on this. Another song from you guys that I love. ER
How many favorite bands have we thought this about? I hope that never happens to me. Lyrically, you hit this nail on the head. ER
