This year will be my fifth year coaching one of my daughters in tee ball, and although I played ball competitively into my thirties, coaching the kids is easily the most fun I've ever had on the diamond.
A song for my daughter.
My blue-eyed girl
Living in your blue-sky world
I'll do my best to keep the clouds away
Life is better on a sunny day
Smooth the road out where you go
Let your light shine and watch you grow

Believe it or not, this track was written as a pretty tame little song... Then I put new strings on the guitar and it simply refused to be played slow. Enjoy it for the drive and energy. Listen to the lyrics. For whatever reason, I hope you…
Some girls have had it far too rough for their very few years.
How old were you when you'd seen enough
How old were you when your hide got tough
Your wounds have scarred
Sometimes they still sting
Close your eyes and hear her sing
A quick little tune written in appreciation of a small expression of contentedness.
I can see in that little smile
You're living for the moment
Every once in a little while I catch it
No one else could match it
You're more than meets the eye

My response to John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High."
The first time I dropped my lowest string
Was for Rocky Mountain High
Last night I caught a flight
To see the fire in the sky
Where John found twenty-seven
Now I'm turning thirty-five…

Thank God!... Something up-beat. One of my colleagues has THE party of the year on Labor Day weekend every year, and I play around the bonfire from dusk until everyone is unconscious... and the ladies like to dance.
I've been listening to several of your songs, and I very much like what I've been hearing. You play and sing very well. Will be back to listen to more later.

"The pictures that she paints while you're keeping time might just make you think again if you don't believe in the divine." Simply, it's a delicate little song appreciating the talents behind a beautifully written and performed song with the…
Three years ago, I brought my two youngest up to the summit of a local mountain (actually, we went up Shelving Rock Mountain, but that song wouldn't be as good). Have a listen to see how that hike went.

A song about writing songs that isn't really about song-writing, and knows it is being written.
Written and sung by Tangmo. Arranged and performed by Phil Close. Additional guitars by Karl Cutruff.
Hey everybody, come out in the streets now
Hey everybody, let's have a good time
Bring along your cooler, there's good food to eat now…
Written and performed by Tangmo and Jay Jackson. If my voice sounds a little sickly, it's because it was. I went into the hospital with life-threatening heart and respiratory problems days after laying vocals for this song. It remains a 'spiritual…
Black Cat
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…
We Didn't Get Time to do this in Norway.
Geir put down great the Guitars.
I took the Vox and Lyrics...
This is called "Your Heart"
-Your Heart-
Your shout is silent now
It feels I’m missing out
This void is lasting evermore…
This song described my co-workers at one company during a temporary assignment. I won't mention the company for fear of being sued, but you get the idea what they were like.

This is my first musical expedition into the midi keyboard. Having never played the piano its a fun learning experience. Thanks to Norm for lending me Stinkbug!
Very cool. So this is what music sounds like when you're just learning something new, Rick. I can't wait to hear when you really know what you're doing!
Steve and I on a Sunday afternoon jam. haven't changed it a lick. Minimally processed it. I liked the openess of it, so I left it alone. Went to Crater Lake, and found this songs home. Played it to the stars the moon and the waters, as the moon…

This one had me at 15 seconds or so... How have I not run into your music before today?!?! Every track has its own great sound.
Thanks, Bee, for bringing FTB to the front page! This is great stuff... I may need to have a FTB listening night later this week!
Excellent track! Great songwriting!
Hey Tharek, I'm at KeithLandryAcoustic@gmail.com I'd love to hear anything you have in mind! Keith
...And just back to listen to this perfect little song.
Absurdly good. These Irish reels of yours are just outstanding!
Very nicely arranged, ER! Cool track, sir! Oh yes, just hit the chorus. Been listening to dozens of your tracks, and this may be the best one yet.
"The morality field lies fallow"... Great line! "Just enough to feed me and my cat"... This is a very well crafted commentary on the working world.
This is a great track, ER! Definitely one of your best.
Wow... Just outstanding.
So nice. You get a great sound out of those six strings, sir.
Very cool. So this is what music sounds like when you're just learning something new, Rick. I can't wait to hear when you really know what you're doing!
Just outstanding. I'm always in awe of the musical talent here on Alonetone, and this is right at the top.
As always, great delivery... Very nice song and soooo listenable!
Outstanding... So so so true.
Great track, Tharek!
This is such a great track as well... So damn pure.
Just dropping back in to listen to this perfect little song.
