A song written for a great girl who'll be getting married next year...
"You'll always be this young if love comes first
And you stay filled with life."
I'm glad you like this one so much, Tess. I actually wrote it for a friend of mine (a terrific girl) who'll be getting married next summer. I only see her once a year at her brother-in-law's Labor Day weekend party, and when I heard she was engaged, this song just came out... The sentiment could apply to any young girl, however... "You'll always be this young if love comes first and you stay filled with life."

Believe it or not, this song was written while swimming laps in the high school pool (I had to have the life-guard kid write down lines for me every time I returned from the deep end). Oddly enough, the first line I came up with was "Swimming…

Thanks to everyone for so many positive comments about this song (and thank you again to Kavin for making it sound so good). So many great dogs out there and we were just lucky enough to adopt one of the best.

fantastic, mans best friend indeed. Big ol' shepard mix, yeah, I had one of those kind once, called him Max, your song is bringing memories to my mind. Thanks for this.
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…

So it has been a while since my last RPM. I felt this song was the best was to reintroduce myself with the insane process that is the RPM Challenge....
First in a planned series of American traditional folk tunes presented as simple guitar instrumentals.
Here's the lyrics if you want to sing along:
Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Oh, where have you been, Charming Billy?
I…
Analyze analytical actions I suppose
Formatting frustration fickle fascination falls
Recite riddles maybe, or measure many moves
Controlling correct posture
Pulsing perpendicular
(Chorus)
I know to some degree the source of the lyrical…
I know why you love The Starry Night
I know why you weren't all right
I know why you couldn't stay
I know why you're here today
I know why you couldn't see
I know why, 'cuz you were me
I know why you loved to paint in blue
I know why…
This is ridiculously good. I've been asking myself lately where I've heard this amazing song before, and I keep having to remind myself it was earlier this February. It has taken a place in my mind as something I've heard on the radio. It's that good.

This is so beautiful...*deep sigh*
Just going through February's RPM Challenge songs... Upped the volume on the vocals a bit (hopefully not too much).
Great song about your doggy - Love the slide too.

Hey, cool collab, the slide guitar does sound excellent. The whole thing sounds great.
Booty job.

Any song about Dr.Who is alright in my books. This is a really great song, nicely recorded.
Now That's a great song! Nice collab guys!
beautiful song. and lucky Bandit: he who writes such music can't be a bad man..
Good one guys.
That was fun, thanks Keith. Now I wanna go out and adopt a puppy!
What a great song. Love the slide guitar too.
Oh yeah, MIGHTY collab, fellas!
superb work here man. Cool accent too. Guitar progressions and slides are *PERFECT*. Flows like a river...
Big thanks to Kavin for making this song more than I could have possibly imagined with his incredible slide guitar.

Yup, this is my favorite song on the album (well, at least so far - I've got three tracks left)!
Oh, yes. This is niiiiiiiiice.
Soooo good to hear new stuff from you! Settling in for some MTC goodness right now!!!
Oh, yes. this is sooooooooooooooo good.
Outstanding.
Oh, this is masterfully played. Just lovely.
Okay, this is just beyond lovely.
Dude, this is great! Looooooove the energy!
Well, this is lovely!
Dude, I'm firing up a new project if you want to join in the mayhem!
Ahhhhhhh... This very much satisfies my Gary Fox fix.
Dang. Ass kicking right from the rip. Sooooo damn good.
Happy to see people digging this simple arrangement with harmonized vocals. I happen to love it as well, so thanks, gang!
Brilliant from the first note. My jealousy for your guitar skill knows no bounds. A masterful album, my friend.
LOVE this.
This is lovely.
Loved this song from the first note I heard at the start of the month. So beautifully arranged.
Dang. Just masterful songwriting, musicianship, vocal talent, production quality.
This is absurdly good. Reminds me of Maine folk singer/songwriter Jud Caswell. Just beautiful. And that chorus. Oh my.
