billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
Found a interesting sounding indian instrument via the computer world and strummed out chords on my lil midi guitar. Added some percussion, strings and a flute.

This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…

eyes all around
thought surveillance, the fighting on the ground
dont abuse the diguise the one they made,
should never be altered
now we fear , the words we say, descent in
the shadows
we must hide to survive the thought police their searching…
Very nicely arranged! And I can't help but be concerned at exactly how many are righting George Orwell/1984esque music right now :) Something is distinctly wrong in the world...

Trippy and unique....I think I was hearing some beat boxing or a sampled beat box goin on in the rythym? The vocal eq'd like that falls right in place..)
Please also listen to the first part of this track, "Man of the morning fog".
Lots of letters downstairs.

well first we must know what John Capulator…
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
Soulful...always playing for the song, a musician's musician. I dig the low organ and how it pops out at the end of the bridge. Another Great performance.
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
None of us knows where we'll be tomorrow,
Let alone 2 weeks from this date.
Will I still be in this place?
"It's okay", she says, "I'll definitely call you later."
If I don't go and forget to,
And if I'm still living here.
Can we say we see a…

Andrew...best song I have heard in a long long time...i am blown away. Everything is perfection on this. Your voice is great...your voice is similar to Ed Roland from Collective Soul...but more soulful....I must listen to this 500 more times....thanks for sharing.
Wow...Andrew you are too kind. As a teen I would fall asleep too Electric ladyland or Axis...etc...maybe in some weird way it subliminally affected me...haa!

Yah!
My get up and go went some time ago... but this reminds me of it lol Definitely got the Petty/Springsteen vibe - love it. If my fave button worked, it would be faved...
Great tune.Well done.
Great thing to listen to first thing - I think my get up and go just got here :)
Aw - this is the biz. Love the driving rhythm and the story telling vibe to the lyrics.
This one is really nice
Love the different sounds you create
Good stuff
I like the mood of this a lot.
nicely written
very nice - you have a great style to your music
Very nicely arranged! And I can't help but be concerned at exactly how many are righting George Orwell/1984esque music right now :) Something is distinctly wrong in the world...
This is really beautiful song, great recording as well, like the way ot builds... nice one :)
Totally hooked from the first few bars
Excellent production. Guitar and synth's sound great. Like the melody ... Nice to hear music with a strong melody hook. This is well done! SG
Oh yeah, nice one. Big sound. You've got those synths and guitars working well together.
George Orwell tried to warn us. Now . . . here we are. Nice way to put it into a song.
Class.
STONKING lol

That is a great track...i dig how it builds up gradually. I dig your voice....without verb it has a Jason Mraz quality....awesome vision here .
Trippy and unique....I think I was hearing some beat boxing or a sampled beat box goin on in the rythym? The vocal eq'd like that falls right in place..)
This is again another unique musical experience. It is great to here what musicians around the world are putting out there.
These damn dead guys are always playin slide guitar better than me! First Duane Allman and now Cobain! Lol!
Soulful...always playing for the song, a musician's musician. I dig the low organ and how it pops out at the end of the bridge. Another Great performance.
Great tune! Killer production. The rythym section is very Beatlesque! Especially the bassline. Good to know my homestate is producing good tuneage.
That is crazy how it showed that info before I processed all info...
Haaa! Maybe this is better.
Haa...doesnt feel much like Christmas these days....hi temps today 106 degrees....it was 116 on tuesday....
Dude...this song is killing me. That slide guitar is placed perfectly in the spectrum...everything is....god damn that is a good tune...jeez louise!
Who do u think u are making great music like this! Lol! This is spot on perfect. Radio needs music like this...A+
Andrew...best song I have heard in a long long time...i am blown away. Everything is perfection on this. Your voice is great...your voice is similar to Ed Roland from Collective Soul...but more soulful....I must listen to this 500 more times....thanks for sharing.
Great playing, nice recording and above all REAL instruments....i love the air coming off the drums. ENcore!
Made morning all good.....its has a great new orleans style groove...reminds me of something Robben Ford would be layin down....love this stuff...
Brooding like Nugent....cool as hell
Nice cut!
I dig your voice.....its very unique. Keep a postin.
I didnt know how to do a mix when I recorded most of these tracks....way too much mudd and bass..
Andrew...that is a great story...lol! When you love music as much as you and I do its hard to explain...
Wow...Andrew you are too kind. As a teen I would fall asleep too Electric ladyland or Axis...etc...maybe in some weird way it subliminally affected me...haa!
