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!

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'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.

I just want to get by for a friend

To kiss you every day

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!

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…

A nice ethereal quality to this. Well done!

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..

I'm into it.

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!
What an intriguing arrangement of sound -- very colorful, tasty, and comfortable. I'm wrapped into it. Great job!
This one reaches me.

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!
