This song started as the riff on my Strat while fooling around with some FX. I knew it needed to be a big dance number, and then realized there is a great story about the power of music and dance, which I hid in the lyrics. See if you can figure…
This one started as a the title line while driving in my car. All I had was the line and it's melody. I built the song around that about 6 months later. The lyrics are self explanatory.
I played this one fairly straight. It still sounds a lot like the raw 30 second idea I recorded on my phone in an elevator in Chicago in early Feb of 2010 and discovered this RPM season. It's not about what you think it is.
We decided to give the kids an outlet that wasn’t pandemic or lockdown based this February, and made an album as a family for the RPM Challenge 2021. It was just the most precious, funny, brilliant month.

This song was written for Tony Sly of No Use For A Name - He passed away July of 2013.
His music helped me through quite a bit as a kid and influenced me as a musician. I never thought I would miss a person I had never met but here I am.
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

Here's the very latest from the broom-cupboard.
I wrote it one dark night over 23 years ago.

**All I Have To Do - A A J Russe**
There isn’t much time to get this out
You won’t hear me if I have to…
Ok, grabbed me right away with that unexpected chord shift in the intro. I love your songwriting, man. The variety, the sonic palettes, the lyrics, the playing, the inventiveness, all of it really; it's such a pleasure to sit, listen, and lose myself in the song.
Comments on Gary Fox's stuff

Diggin' the horns, bro! And this is one funky groove.
Killer opening track!

Listened to the entire album and liked every song. Also enjoyed your use of horns. This one is also very nice. Keep on rockin', amigo. ER
Love the groove no matter what year it was recorded. ER
Ok - complete album downloaded! And this track gives me an earworm!!!
I agree with your lyrics wholeheartedly. Nice funk groove, sir. ER
This entire album WILL be downloaded! Holy crap, Gary, what a kick ass album!
Bad ass tracks here once again. Always love the upfront big guitars. Horns give it a Beatles feel.
Rockin' wonderfulness.....ness...ess
Its like a beautiful mixture of Deep Purple, and ELO to name a couple.
I always felt ballads in 3/4 allow the singer to emphasis the vocal anx lyrics. This is a great example.
Big smiles :)
Yep... it is ok already :)

Wait, wah-wah bass?!? Awesome. This tune just keeps getting better with each passing sound, twist, and part.
So beautiful...
I think I have my new most favorite song ever. This is genius. The delivery is perfect.
I love the feel, the movement, the spice. Bloody great!
Magical. Purely magical.
That riff is tasty; very, very tasty! And I love the vox delivery...great song!
I love every aspect of this song; the mix, the performance, the writing, all of it.
Wow, great song. Great song!
Out of the gate...this one grabs you instantly. It's a great counterpoint to Part 1.
This is an anthem! Great song!
I love how this song almost pulses out of the speakers at me. Great cut!
This whole album is phenomenal. You're the Monet of auditory soundscapes! I loved every track.
Love the guitars!
Nice! This rocks!
This is such a great song, Tim.
I love this.
Such a great number, wilsun!
I really like the melancholy feel of the beginning. The space is nice, and the synth at 2:30 is perfect.
This song and performance are 2 minutes and 28 seconds of perfection.
