Terry Brown came up with these dark, hardcore lyrics, asked if I could do anything with them and set them to music. He knows I'm not afraid of going there with a serious, in your face subject matter!

Clever lyricism Merry Bear. Dead pannish and Lyle Lovett like feel and delivery. Thanks for the nice comment earlier and sorry to have to had trashed but reposted as I thought there were glitches in first upload. Appreciate the listen and like this one.
Vocals by Greg Connor, lyrics by Connor and Merry Bear, music by Bear.
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…
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

Terrific. You created the atmosphere that fits your lyrics perfectly. Great song. I was imagining guitar sounds like Roger McGuinn's Ricky or David Gilmour's Strat in a sort of ocean wave sound.

HANDS UP DON'T SHOOT

Don't be selling menthols -- No breaking up a fight

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…
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?

"...I have not left this cave for days now, it has become my last refuge in my total despair. I have only the music of the waterfall to comfort me now. I can no longer live under the control of the Federation, but there is no other place to go. My last hope is that with my death I may pass into the world of my dream, and know peace at last."
You have strung together quite nicely some colorful, tasty sounds - an outside-the-box composition. Original and innovative. You've got a sharp noodle -- I like how your mind works. Very entertaining!
I heard the piano cover of this by Eduardo Liscano and I could hear the bass and guitar parts it needed immediately. I asked Eduardo if he would mind if I recorded the bass and guitar parts I envisioned. He agreed and this beautiful piece is the…
Of all the genres I love, from Sea Shanties to Heavy Metal, it's Da Blues that reach me the most, and I really appreciate an artist with a good handle on his axe, and there you are -- good job! I'm feelin' ya, brother! Rock on!

A nice ethereal quality to this. Well done!
Liking those Lyrics......

Like it. Love the lyrics.
And this one too, like it :)
That works in a strangely hypnotic kind of way. Nice one.
Nice change up I really like this Rick
Oh yeah
I really like this.
I can only imagine where the inspiration for this song came from. *Good listening!*
Heavy lyrics...the music reminds me of something the Doors would have tracked...
dig the melody...has a late 50's early 60's vibe..
Comments made by Merry Bear
What Greg said. ;) Diggin' the lyrics too.
Roger! Great to have you back! Love your material and style!
Well done!
I had missed this one until it popped up on the "Hot" list. I like it! Far out AND groovy!
Great job, Roger Dodger!

Rock on!
Great lead guitar work!
Great job at panning and mixing!
Wow!
Interesting effects employed here, creating a pleasant, ambient atmosphere. Entertaining, intriguing.
Adventurous, and quite entertaining.
Good songwriting, cool sounds, nice handle on the axe.
I dig the melody, and what a damn fine handle you have on your axe -- gorgeous!
You have strung together quite nicely some colorful, tasty sounds - an outside-the-box composition. Original and innovative. You've got a sharp noodle -- I like how your mind works. Very entertaining!
Your a master not only of the keyboard but the fret board as well! Delightful!
You envision quite nicely!

This is a great mix down. It's an echo of -- to me, anyway -- "One of These Days" by Pink Floyd. Man, I'm thrilled you're here with us on AloneTone.
