Sometimes you need to stay up late to try to force yourself to dream.

Well, I sent this simple little arrangement off to Jana to see what he thought it needed. When he suggested a uke, I said "Go for it!"
He was right... Can't thank him enough for his contribution.

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…
Hm. An ode to a pretty young redhead. Does your wife know about this? Just kidding.
Nice song, sir. And our family has started watching more and more of BBC America lately, too.

Well, screw the metronome, damn the torpedoes, and grab a capo!

Other layers may or may not be in the works, but I thought I'd let everyone have a listen so far.
HERE WE ARE TODAY
How can it be so clear
In my mind
The first night you were here
Like going back in time
Sweet as summer wine
Your whisper…

The RPM veteran’s committee, aka Town Counsel is a group of small town bureaucrats hell-bent on world domination and/or making fun songs. This particular track was a musical game of “telephone” where each counselor added a part to a previously…
It's a b-side song for RPM 2024, mostly because I needed a second song in order to create a playlist here.
I need a b-side songs for the flip side
A b-side song to prove that I tried
To put in the effort, to get things done
To try to…
I needed to keep the streak alive.
15 years of RPM.
But life has been in the way. Considerably. It's not worth getting into, but music is currently so far down the priority list it's not even funny.
But I found time on the 28th to…
Well, now. This is OUTSTANDING. It seems like this was the year for "get one song done to keep the streak alive." A damn good little track. Yeah. Fifteen years. Pretty amazing, my friend.

The final Song for my 2023 RPM challenge!! Dusted off my acoustic guitar (and blistered my fingers) to get this one done. Phew! I love Latin rhythms and so I found a beat and jammed it up. Thanks again to anyone who listens -it's really fun…
Made it through another year
Still don’t know why I’m here
Make some music drink some beer
Sounds alright to me
Loved ones leave
Friends come then go
Everything can change so quick
Don’t let the bullshit bring you down
Just enjoy this…
RPMers I salute you
Ice ice everywhere like a skating rink
I don’t wanna go nowhere
I don’t wanna think
I’ll just stay inside press record and sing
RPM is here
it’s 2am what else to do
Make up rhymes strum a chord
Find a good groove…
Don't let it be said that I've forgotten my love of R.E.M.
Dream of a life that’s never been seen
A world of possibilities, a place in between
A place of shadows, a place of light
A place of secrets, hiding in the night
Oblique, oblique…
I asked to robots to help me write a song in the style of Tom Waits.
Riding on a train to the edge of town
Where the night has just begun
People on the street with nowhere to go
Living hard and having fun
Everywhere I go there’s a song…
A large portion of this record was written with my friend Wilsun in mind. If anything, this is an album to amuse him. To ensure I achieved that goal, I tried to write a song that reminded me of "Life In A Northern Town", although it actually…

Thanks Rob! Glad you like the stuff... The new CD is currently in the works!
Hey, really nice cut! Just last night found the info you gave me about your work. I look forward to checking it all out. Talk to you soon, Rob DuBoff

Just messing with some simple added arrangement... It'll probably need some volume work with the extra guitar tracks, but I kinda like the additions.
Nice!
Sweet little ditty.
