It's tough making money in the music biz. Inspired by the song "Cake By The Ocean".
Tim - lead and backing vocals, bass, drum programming, keys. Clarke - backing vocals. Grant - drums. Bob - guitars, backing vocals, beatboxing.
Countin…
Thanks, Gary. All of the credit for the keys (and the awesome stick bass in the verses) goes to Clarke McMurray. He killed it. This song has an odd feature where I'm playing bass in the choruses and Clarke is playing stick in the verses.
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis.
Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
Finally remembered to log in (yeah, the comments on the other tracks were me). I always do especially love the stripped-down singer-songwriter tracks. This is one of the best.
A love song for my wife
Falling in love is wonderful, especially when it’s with you
It happens all over every day, seems the right thing to do
Falling in love is wonderful, especially when it’s with you
I can’t think of anything that I’d…

I got a friend, his name is Tim, and he really likes donkey songs.

When my 'whole morning for recording' turned into 30 minutes, I did this. Beep beep;
Driving all over the fucking road.
Left right left right doesn't really matter.
In n out of lanes in my mitsubishi colt
Left right left right doesnt really…
Interpret this song as you wish. The inspiration is a rash of door to door religion salesmen that plague my neighborhood. The conversations they try to engage me in made me ponder their motivation for grace.
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Meg Radley on vocals
way to go
great escape
such a clever girl you are
made the grade
change the course
all because of what she said
climb up the ladder
release the lion trapped inside
all our thoughts…
from the album 'ZERO'
with Alex Moody on Vocals
lover cease
and desist what you say
cause there's a ton of trouble
coming your way
lover be strong
it's gonna be a crazy ride
but when it all hits the fan
i'll be the one with the plan…
from the album 'ZERO'
featuring Tess Savigear on vocals
as you wish said the boy
to the girl with the sparkling eyes
so it goes, so they say
he was taken from her that day
and her deep blue eyes went silent
just another sad tale, so sorry…
from the album "ZERO"
with Alex Moody on vocals
if you believe in the miracle of trust
and that karma's hands always touch
everything, whether near or out of touch
gotta keep on reaching, cause it never hurts
to try, it's not so hard…
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Meg Radley on vocals
wait a day
might as well stay, awhile
here with me
where the breeze, blows
just say now
time grows shorter
then we dream
awake a scream, out loud
leaving leaves a hole
kicks around…
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Tess Savigear on vox
seems like I felt this way before
but my memory is not to be trusted
so many things flashing through my brain
was it real or a dream or something else
you're staring at me like a criminal…
from the album "ZERO"
featuring Alex Moody on vocals
you used to be
someone I could believe in
someone much better than me
and now you're no better than the others
i'm sorry to say...
you weren't so smart
locking yourself in your house…

Love this one. Because let's face it, I don't need to be a millionaire; I'd settle on being a thousandaire.
This weird thing is my favorite. :)
Like this really cool track

Love the various keys parts on this one!
This is a killer collection.
Great song!
remember this one. :)
wow. smoooooooov. very much enjoyed that.
You need help. But please please please don't ever seek it.
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis. Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
Dude, your vocals are spot on. Really impressed.
Ah, love that Andy Samford lead guitar. Crazy good as always.
Yes. I am home.
GREAT arrangement.

GREAT harmonies.
Greatest curling song of all time.
Yes! First one in!!! Hail Hail Rock 'n Roll!
Super sweet! Love the Uke!

Great work, Brian. Nice, mellow groove and I like all of the flourishes.
This is better than roughly 75% of the music produced by RPM participants each year. Henry's already almost as good as his dad.... :)
Yowza. Missed this the first time around. Awesome work!

Hey wait - that's ME!
A farfeeza, a marimba, a surf beat, and a Dick Dale guitar line. What more could you ask for?!?!
Subtle and pretty from Sha-Pink? And it works!
And now some early Depeche Mode... It's like an updated version of New Life, covered by Thomas Dolby. Damn, guys. Just damn.
Makes me think of Blancmange! Another awesome tune. It sounds like the fun is out in full effect for Sha-Pink this year.
This song is everything I love about Sha-Pink! Awesome B-52's vibe on this tune. Great job, guys. (uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh)
I had an absolute blast working on this track, and it's about ME!!!!!
Fabulous work, Alex. It matters! beep-beep.
This is one of your best vocal performances ever, Brian.
Oh. Meg…. What a fabulous way to round out the album.
The build and the slinky bassline on this tune are so great. And Alex kills the vocals yet again.
I adore the part where Tess's voice breaks up oh-so slightly at about 3:40. Awesome.
I had a lot of fun playing with the effects on Alex's voice on this one. Another great song.
Just lovely, and I really like the build.
Tess lets her voice slink through this song. Just a fantastic vocal.
Another tremendous arrangement.
