January challenge songwriting fun...
WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
I'm a teacher, a parent of elementary school children, a mental health advocate, and a pacifist. It's been a rough week... But there's still time.
TIME
Time to look in the mirror
Time to say what we believe
Is this the world we want…

Landry/Garn
When I sent this song off to Jim, he sent back tracks for a second rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and drums. Bass soon followed, and Kavin's slide dropped in nicely. Just thought I'd let y'all have a listen to what came back to me…
Agree with slkrell on this one.
I guess its time to start DL ing for this years x mas playlist
well done, i dont think ive ever gotten past 9 ladies dancing ;)
Demo version of a song I've been messing with.
I know what they're missing... The only girl.
I know what they're missing... The one and only in the world.
I was walking down an empty street late one night and thinking of different things while the fire of a song was burning in my head. then took the situation and looked at the parrellels in my life and from that came this song.
hope you like it! :)
For our beautiful son Willem, in French Guillaume.
recorded in my livingroom, 16-7-2009.
I called the song Guillaume before because of the beautiful sound.
Since 2012 I changed the title of the song into : Willem.
Because that makes much…
When I wrote this it was a cold cloudy and dark winter night here in vancouver but I was sitting in my room and was just in a sunny state of mind. I then picked up my Uke and started fiddlin around searching for a breezy chord progression, then…

What does a songwriter do when he's addicted to Doctor Who (and his new very cute companion)? He writes...
Amy Pond
Red hair and that pretty face beneath it
My how you've grown up after oh so many years
I've only been away for ten or…

I originally intended to arrange this song more fully, but the thought of the Doctor singing to Amy with nothing but an acoustic guitar somehow worked for me.

This is a song that started as just an idea I had playing live one lovely thursday evening and I just started playing this progression and sang some gibberish over it and I came up with the "chorus" part and and the Idea of asking questions in…
This is just terrific! Now that my little ones are 5, 7, and 10, I can look back and laugh at the repetitive questioning... I almost miss it... Almost.
Such a great acoustic guitar-centered album. And this may be my favorite Calculus Affair song... Check that... This is definitely my favorite Calculus Affair song.

Thanks for listening, Inge!... I appreciate your kind words as well... And I'm always willing to be dragged into the happiness!
Great stuff, Brian!
Really, this is a great song. I can't wait to hear more songs from you.
Beautiful.
Wow, what beautiful guitarwork!... Counterpointed by such powerful and direct lyrics. Wow.
Great song... I find my best songs are the ones I've written about my kids, but I must say that this one of yours tops them all.
Just dropping by to listen to this terrific song.
Wow.
Very smooth.
Ugh... Now that I hear this a few days later, I realize how badly I need to re-record the vocals.
I originally intended to arrange this song more fully, but the thought of the Doctor singing to Amy with nothing but an acoustic guitar somehow worked for me.
And here it is just a bit further down the playlist! Damn, just a great song!
Great delicate little song. What a nice sound!
This is just terrific! Now that my little ones are 5, 7, and 10, I can look back and laugh at the repetitive questioning... I almost miss it... Almost.
Great arrangement and a terrific song, Peter!
Another great track from this excellent album.

REALLY nice guitarwork. Just a really nice song.
Ooooooh. This I like, particularly the simple acoustic opening.
Ooooh.... Veerrrrrry nice. Wow.
