The title track. At one point I had visions of everyone singing at the end of the album (and thank you to those of you that did), but I just couldn't get it to sound right (I don't really know what I'm doing after all). So instead of voices…
You could sing the phone book, and I'd probably be amazed.
I hear elements of Garth Brooks, Don McLean, and - of course - a lot of original Keith Landry in this song. Great work, as usual!

Bonfire Lullaby
Dannah studies my hands while I play
With heavy eyes at the end of a runaround day
Fading fast ‘neath a summer night’s sky
No need to wonder why
Time stands still in her…
Sometimes, all you need to do is decide that you're gonna save yourself.
COMING UP OVER THE RISE
So low I couldn't see the skies
The shadows had me hypnotized
Climbing high, sun in my eyes
I was down, but now I'm coming up over the rise…

One of the first songs I wrote for "Burning Wood (the Bonfire Sessions)", and one of the last to be completed, Sam lends her incredible vocal talents to this sunny-day driving song.
LIFE IS GOOD
Windows down, my baby by my side
Life is…

This song just completely turned my day around. Very simple and cheerful, and still leaves me feeling a bit of inspiration and optimism. Good work, Keith.

Keith - this is lovely - not only the song / guitar / vocals but also the sentiment and the slice of real life. This is a definition of beauty and serenity and... Love.

Faved at the opening notes. Beautiful arrangement, writing, performance... Damn, great song! I surely will be stopping by at some point to listen to more of your music in the future!
This is simple test of East-West symphonic choirs solo soprano voice and East-West Hollywood strings contra-bass. I feel its a bit reminiscent of Lord of the Rings - of course, your mileage may vary - it is a very simple and direct arrangement…
I'll always come by to listen to the music of Middle-Earth. Perfectly captured Elven voice sound! Oh... And make sure you get in touch with an Elf that still prefers to speak Quenya if you ever get the chance to record a real one (the high-Elven speech really is quite beautiful although the Sindarin tongue has it's own elegant flow).
Very cool song (coming from this card-carrying Tolkien disciple). Well done!
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.

Words and Music by Tharek Mokbul ( OsCKilO )
My heart will miss a beat
Each time
I see your pain
I know this is the end
But I
Will fight this tide
The battle is complete
Both sides
Have won this time
I will remember you
So proud…
A Song I wrote about a friend of mine who used to Jump out of planes a lot.
This is one of the hidden tracks on my new album "Black Cat" which features Beth, Keith and Reewfwalker from alonetone and Geir and Jim from Songcrafters.
Here is a…
Wow... Outstanding arrangement. I'm always floored by the perfect acoustic guitar on these tracks, and the violin (and other instruments) fill this tune out beautifully!
written on a Bad day with Chicken pox....
But Spent a Great Day with my Son who also had it.
Jim Called later that day.
He added a vocal/Lyric the day after as my voice is shot...
This is a song about good times with your wee ones..
This is really a true story.

This one was inspired by Wen's mom; and is therefore dedicated to all those musicians doing RPM, and all musicians who toil away at home to make their music despite what their friends & co-workers might think of their efforts.
Well, I was introduced to this outstanding track by a couple of hyperactive rabbits and thought I should listen to the pre-bunny funk version. Outstanding track! Great work!!!
Fast forward time, 9 years to the day, and I am in a check-out lane.
You're standing there 3 or 4 feet away, pretending not to notice.
You look so beautiful in the winter,
Just like I remember.
Nothing really changes when it comes to the…
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
This one is good too, although, I think you hit the bullseye on your last version.
I like the sparse sound. Of course, I'm a sucker for just guitar and voice.
Sounds lovely Keith. Very nice!
Wow! How did I miss this? Great stuff Keith!
You could sing the phone book, and I'd probably be amazed. I hear elements of Garth Brooks, Don McLean, and - of course - a lot of original Keith Landry in this song. Great work, as usual! Regards, Steffen
You Sir, are a wonderful story teller.
Love it :)
Love this one Keith. Thanks again for inviting me to jam with you on the album!!!
You guys do sound great together... very nice. :)
love a good fire, thanks.
Lovely song, very evocative.
This song just completely turned my day around. Very simple and cheerful, and still leaves me feeling a bit of inspiration and optimism. Good work, Keith.
Fav'ed Keith, good songwriting, Perfect tuck in tune
Great track Keith. I love the picking at the start as well. FAVD.
I must echo everyone else. Beautiful songwriting.
Beautiful song and so tenderly done.
Keith - this is lovely - not only the song / guitar / vocals but also the sentiment and the slice of real life. This is a definition of beauty and serenity and... Love.
Good one.
This is so beautiful!! This makes me wonder: 'what am i doing here, among all these great artists?' Amazing track, Keith! Wow!
Sooooo nice!!!!!!!!!!

OUTSTANDING!!! This is right up my alley, Kavin!... Now if I could only learn to play like this.

...And this song is just a masterpiece.
Hey Inge, Just dropping by to listen to your good good stuff after some time away. As always, I'm amazed by the purity of your soulful vocals. Keith
Looking forward to an Osckilo night at the Landry house to hear this album in its entirety.
Wow... Outstanding arrangement. I'm always floored by the perfect acoustic guitar on these tracks, and the violin (and other instruments) fill this tune out beautifully!
This is the goods! Once again, you find the perfect words and arrangement. Well done, my friend.
Too good for radio.
Left speechless by this album.
Damn... This is one hell of an album... Sorry I missed you at the listening party for a CD trade! Will be doing some downloading here instead!
Oh, the best one yet... Magnificent piece in every way.
Another gem, this one.
Excellent track!
Good to see this up in the #1 spot. Just absurd talent. Incredible stuff, Kavin.
Absolutely brilliant.
So where's the ACL fan club? Do I need to start a chapter? HA, the Toby Keith T-shirt!!!
