DREAMING
Inside the dream I'm drowning
I struggle for the shore
I'm swimming 'neath the surface
I'm sinking ever more
While Davy Jones is laughing
And Neptune scoffs at me
I'm swimming on with purpose
I'm frantic to be free
- The…
GOOD-BYE
I don't want to say good-bye
But I have to go
Catch the train that's heading West
Do another show
I don't want to make you cry
There's no other way
Give your weary head a rest
Carry on the day
- Don't know how to say good…
At some point I was thinking about RHCP and that song ringing in me. I'm
Finally catching up on everything I've missed from you and everyone else. This is cool.
MONOLOGUE
I found a hole, it's in the wall
And reaching up, I crawled inside
And to the stars I gave a call
To grant a better place to hide
I cannot leave the hole I found
The chapel for my dark despair
I do not seek to hang around…

Fine lyrics! Interesting mixing technique to have the lead vocals panned to the far right in some parts and then have the overdubbing add a contrasting stereo effect by being panned to the far left! I might steal that some time! ;)
Instrumental fusion of an Asian-flavored pentonic scale with a D minor-based American Blues scale. The Asian scale is an A 5th version of the Koto scale, performed using the Pan Flute setting on a Yamaha E313 KB, while the Blues scale is performed…
WALKING ON THE MOON
See the Earth on horizon
Watch the Earth as she's arising
I hope the living are gazing
I hope the people are loving
Feel like I'm walking on the moon
I think I will be on there soon
My body's going to set me free…
EARTH
Humanity, you're blowing this
Good planets, hard to find
Insanity to wipe us out
To earn another dime
No use it is to build a house
Upon a dying land
We live upon a warming earth
Why don't we understand?
- Unless we govern for…
OK… this might be my fav, lyrically, of yours. i'm right with you. Good tune-age, too. If you want to get fired up, check out what Polymet Mines may be allowed to do in northern Mn, right in the middle of one of the largest freshwater sheds in the world. Unbelievable that it's even being considered. Been to the meetings… its a real possibility.

And, thank you for listening to my song.
I was at the stockade at Fort Ord in California and then sent to Leavenworth where I ended up at the prison farm running the egg factory.
MAD AND SAD AND SCARED
I just want to get by for a friend
This is not how I would want to end
Mad and sad and scared
In everything I've shared
That is all I leave behind me
This is all I am
Hope I find a way
To kiss you every day
That…

And y'all thought the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about! This song is 4 dimensional – up/down, left/right, in/out, now/then. BIG THANKS to Greg Connor for fabulous vocals…
Rockin', rippin', and grindin' -- a real fun listen. You got the Rock formula down and the amps cranked high, just the way I like it. I'm eating up this tasty jam, spread out nice and thick -- Rock on!
Thanks to Robert Palomo for giving this a little sound engineering. Robert said " I mixed thru my mastering plugin (Ozone 5).

With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…
Some time ago whilst YouTubing, I stumbled across several videos of old seafaring songs or sea "shanties". Unbelievably, that triggered some very ancient RAM of elementary school music classes wherein we were taught several of these songs. And…

WRECK OF NINETEEN THREE
People listen to me tell you
Of the story of a man
Roamed the country in a school bus
People called him Danville Dan…
Lot of interesting stuff happening here. It's all strung together nicely. You got out of the box, lit a match, then leaped off several yards away -- the box be damned!
This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)
Oh... by the way... acl is finally waking from a very deep slumber…
Here is my contribution to the Cherry Pie project of Greg's ....I had started it with the intention of a collaboration with Geas ...but i went down the pub tonight and watched a gig down there and came back a bit over excited..as i haven't had…
i can hear the digits in your digital audio
i feel the need to fidget with my mouse and my moby
i’m listless as i listen to prestigious presentations
of manipulated data and prestidigitation
i type unlisted numbers into my communicator
i'm dubious…
Comments on Merry Bear's stuff
Yes, this is my bag. Love the vibe, very cool. Sounds like something you'd hear in Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul, House, etc. I'm impressed!

Almost made it to the wedding ceremony...nice

Groovy and cool as HELL!
Inspired by "The Song That Never Ends," I sang the poem 7 times, for each day of the week, from Tuesday to "Moon"day.
in the spirit of the Wanagi and lower Brule tribe, I say, Go...make it clear and make it last forever. Don't ever let the underlings bring you down.

Ah good old days of the future past !!!! Roger.
Nice one like it
Nice got some potential keep up the good work :)
Great job, Roger Dodger!
Interesting lyrics complimenting a bouncing melody. It's a great way to portray frustration.
Nice one
the finality is nearly palpable. Eco's and shadows, beseech us all.
Pretty dang good
Credit also goes to Greg for the melody.

I'm into it.
Rockin', rippin', and grindin' -- a real fun listen. You got the Rock formula down and the amps cranked high, just the way I like it. I'm eating up this tasty jam, spread out nice and thick -- Rock on!
Sweet, colorful, and cozy.
I dig this combination of instruments and the echo effect, and the improv is tasty. Good stuff -- Rock on!
A down right groovy jam from beginning to end, cool vocals, great guitar picking, love all the pauses. Very creative -- Rock on!

You've been taking your songwriting craft to another level of late! Fabulous lyrics. A very pleasant, tasteful mix down. Rich sound.
I adore me some Sea Shanties, mate!
Like Greg said, you blend acoustic and electric guitars quite nicely!

VERY interesting and quite delightful. Rich with creativity. Spreads out nicely, like something RUSH might compile. Rock on!
Ha ha! Fabulous! Rock on!
I like it.
Interesting experiment.
I always like waking to birds and rain outside my window -- it's what I call a good morning.
Wild. This one really tickles the ears. That was a lot of fun to hear -- nice flavor. Quite filling. I'm stuffed. Rock on!
FABULOUS LYRICS!
