A memory of my dear friend and neighbor who recently passed away. He served in the Third Army in WWII. This song is pretty much every conversation we ever had about the war in fourteen years.

It's much like something a Psychedelic '60s band might have come up with, both lyrically and musically, and it also happens to be my favorite genre of music. Trippy, far out, and groovy, man! Carry on!

As we wrap up our work on our 2013 RPM album "How The Story Goes", we figured we'd leak an early track. Enjoy our country drinking song.

A pop song, featuring far more keyboard work than normal for me.
F - Am - Dm - C
Words are like numbers
And numbers like words
There are these patterns
In the sounds that you heard
You must complete it
Finish the phrase
Close out the cycle…
Ukulele. That is all.
Take me at my word
And get me to the church on time
I always do what I promise
I'll be there to say "I do"
And spend the rest of my life with you
I always do what I promise
And I do
It all for you
And if you ask
I'll do…

Can you hide in happiness
Can you disguise the sadness in your voice
Could you play only major chords
Can you hide in happiness
Choose a part of you to show
And no one around you can know
Just how deep the scars go
Can you hide in…
Now with more awesomeness! Thank you to This Wretched Vessel Lead vocalist for adding in some Gang vocals to beef up the chorus. Also borrowing their percussionist for some tambourine to give the song some extra pop!

This is like a lost Railway Children song from a session where they were letting one of the other guys sing for once. Nice work, and it features your usual upbeat lyrical content! :)

I'm waiting for a package to arrive
I'm sitting idle hoping it's on time
It's not good for my health
I'm losing patience with myself but
I'm waiting for a package to arrive
Waiting for things to arrive

Delicious insanity. Love it!
You need to film a video for this song. Imagine the possibilities! Great job on the album Tim, well done!
Nice job on this one Tim!
Another crowd pleasing slab of Dad Rock right here. Fun track!
I can see (hear) why this is the title track! This is an instant classic. Impressive!

Cool Tim, really cool. I'll be taking some time tomorrow to listen to your album.

yes, awesome! IAA
Still genius. :)
Tim, I love this! Great grove & fun! w;-)
Awesome!! I'm really impressed by the harmonies in the chorus. :) -clarke
What a fabulous track! Love the fiddle!

Love this track!
Don't worry, ER, mine is too! Great track, Tim!
My mind is blank most of the time. Good song. ER

Nice stuff peeps!
Lovin' this!

Great energy and great fun.
I totally want to see the movie trailer this should accompany! Major bonus points for the trumpet, too.
Apparently Ed likes the Allman Brothers. Who knew?
Excellent song and killer guitar tones!
Such a catchy chorus! At times you really remind me of Eleanor Friedberger.
I love hearing you embrace your pop sensibilities. Another home run.
Wow. This is really great. The key are perfect and the affected vocal sounds amazing. And then some perfectly placed drum bits. Well done!
Whoa. The revision with the new backing vocals is really great!

Great space and sound, sir. I look forward to hearing this in context of the larger story.
I wish this were four times longer. So, you know, like two minutes long.
Man... there's something about your melodic choices that I just adore. Nice work!
Wilsun, the remix king!
I’m honored to be chopped up and reconstituted so. Great work and great fun! Ow, if you’ll pardon me, I need to go find a shiny shirt.
Great voice and a great bit of talent here. Your EP is quite excellent. Keep up the great work!
Spectacular! There's sort of an Eleanor Friedberger vibe to this that I really love. MORE PLEASE!
Wow. That really opens up at 2:00. Great stuff!
This is great! I’m pretty sure my recording of Wilsun’s entire album last year was shorter than this song. 😂
This sounds like an 80s metal power ballad, and I mean that in all the best possible ways.
I swear your Green Day mode sounds so much like them it's scary. Fun little tune!
