After writing this song about our newly adopted dog, I asked Kavin if he like to play some slide guitar, knowing that he would come up with something terrific... I just had no idea how terrific.

Again, apologies for the silence before this song gets going as well as for the inconsistent vocals... I hope the message overrides any lack of ability with respect to the song's execution.
The first recorded version of this song, this little folk song was originally written fifteen or so years ago with just the four chord rhythm guitar and single vocal. The song became what it is today when I needed to write additional verses for…

Recorded a while ago when I really didn't have any idea what I was doing... Even so, the talent of the kid in the duet comes through. Apologies for the opening seven seconds of silence (hmmm... I may need to name my next album that).
After listening to Brian's beautiful guitar piece "Mellow," Brian was kind enough to allow me to sing along...
Never saw you coming
Down my lonely road
I never saw you coming
Can't be sure you'll never go
I know you'll be leaving
But I keep believing…
My wife woke up one morning and said "I had a dream about (someone we'd just lost) the other night." When I asked her if she was okay, she replied, "Yeah, it was good to see her again."
wow, you have so many songs!
Thank you so much for you warm comments on my songs, I realy appreciated!
I like your "life" songs. And don't you worry about you vocals ( as you do in amy pond) it's about your emotion! And that strikes in the heart.
I will listen to you more often.
Wit a smile,
Inge

From one Doctor Who nerd to another, I've been thinking of writing something like this for some time. You beat me to it! But what about Rose Tyler? Did that end when David Tennant left the show? Great song. Will be back to listen to more.

my contribution to this years RPM Christmas Challenge,,, the song first appeared in 1943 in the film "Meet me in Saint Louis" sung in a great sceen by Judy Garland,,,, written by H. Martin and R. Blane,,, it's sort of a beautifully sad song for…
Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
Had the blues in Alabama
Had the blues in Texas too
Had the blues all over
Now I 'm givin' em to you
And if you don't want em
You know what you can do
You wont find me I'm goin' ta run and hide away from you
Because I see trouble
Trouble…
Final version
Every so often when i'm thinking of something else a western song pops up as if there is a soundtrack to a movie running in the back of my head. I might have to gather em all up into a playlist some day.
track nine, or at least…
So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.
YOU NEED…
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
Thank you for being you
No one else would do
Thank you for being you
You're all I ask for
Too many nights alone
tonight I'm coming home
open up the wine cos I'm
gonna be with the one who's shown
Me the ways of old
Women into wives…
Nine cans of Guinness....
One beaten up old Guitar.....
An MBR....
A Great night out...
Then Some time time my self...
This is the result...
Peace

3rd one for RPM2011. This is an 'oh you'll never get to heaven' type affair inspired by a beer my mate introduced me too. The song is basically about drinking yourself to death and having one up on the healthy brigade having made a rather spectacular…
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
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.
Most enjoyable song, Keith and Love the lyrics.
Lovely songwriting!
very nicely done, thanks for putting the lyrics down R
Haha, I read that as 'Pass on Love', as in 'Love? I'll pass.' Anyway! Lovely song, affectionately performed, as ever, Mr L!
Again, apologies for the silence before this song gets going as well as for the inconsistent vocals... I hope the message overrides any lack of ability with respect to the song's execution.
very well done,,,a moving story line,,, as told by two talented people,, i'll go north with you
veeery nice song :)
This just makes me feel good. Thanks for that! Ashley's voice is incredible!
Sometimes WOW still works. This is a WOW. I really like this one. Nice song Keith.
Lovely stuff! Beautiful voices, great song!
This is so lovely. Love Ashley's voice.
This is great! My question is, are you gonna write a tribute to Rory? If you do, I promise to write the "ballad of the Dalek". Jim
what a beaut!
Great tune.

Ah... Good to hear this one again!
So good right from the start... And so true. This song is my new RPM anthem.
Don't know how I missed this one, Richard! Beautifully done!
Just back again to listen to this magnificent piece of work. Sooooo good.
Damn, that slide Acoustic Church slide guitar is outstanding.
Another great track from Gumbo!
I had to give it a favorite tag just for MTC's out of control guitar work.
OUTSTANDING!!!
What a sound!!! Man, Kavin, just how freakin' good are you gonna get?
This is outstanding! I'm loving the free-and-easy tracks this RPM, Kavin!
Damn, Tharek. Just a great song... As always, envious of that incredible picking of yours.
Faved from the opening notes... Reminiscent of some of Matthew Sweet's best stuff! Great track, Alex!
Great song in every way, Tharek!
Instant fave.
Great song... perfectly arranged and performed! Classic Fedofsky with the tempo-changed bridge... So good.
Another gem, Peter. The more I try to push my vocal limitations, the more I keep coming back to listen to your stuff with envy and awe!
Outstanding!
...And I love the higher level conversations that will surely ensue from the "physics degrees."
Love it. Absolutely love it. This will be an instant classic in the Landry household before the week is out.
Colin, Really excited for this kids album. Great track, man!
