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 am, wasting away
the older I get
approaching the end of the line
I never meant to be
here at this time
but circumstance and chance have me
behind, is the glass half full
does it matter, I…
from the album ZERO
featuring Alex Moody on vocals
it's time to paint it on again
adjust my smile smooth down my dress
make sure the shoes both match, and leave
jump in the car, i'm fast asleep
and all the people in my dreams

None of us knows where we'll be tomorrow,
Let alone 2 weeks from this date.
Will I still be in this place?
"It's okay", she says, "I'll definitely call you later."

And if I'm still living here.

When I sent this song off to Jim, he sent back tracks for a second rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and drums. Bass soon followed, and Kavin's slide dropped in nicely. Just thought I'd let y'all have a listen to what came back to me…
No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…
What a nice surprise to hear this morning! Something fun and different from Alex. Excellent work.
+1 for the Poi Dog meets Dylan comment. That's pretty spot on. = )
Oh hai. This is Bryce!
I have a cold today, but on the brightside I conjured up a song!
Yes :3 I do realize the vocals are a tad quiet; I apologize for this! The next song will be better. I promise you that.

My first RPM cover of 2011. This one is "Like This" by The Missed Connections. I seem to have taken a darker turn with the song than Amelia did. It wasn't intentional, but it seems to be what I do when I cover her songs.
@Mischief - are you referring to the backing vox? That's all me. 2 guitars, bass, Addictive Drums, and 4-5 voices.
I assume "steezy" is something good. = )

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!

Alex hit it out of the park on this one, taking a great song and making it even better.
I love the push-pull of this song.
Damn, Andy. Just damn. You're operating on a whole different level, as usual.
There's something to be said for embracing the nonsense. Too many musicians takes themselves far too seriously. Great work.
This is radio-ready, and better than 99% of what you hear out of signed bands. Seriously.... I should give up after hearing this. Just brilliant.
These new songs are really strong. Keep it up!
Most excellent work, my friend! I love the 60's vibe.
Excellent work, gentlemen.
This is just brilliant, Brian. A nifty little acoustic gem hidden amongst your louder songs.
This song brought the house down at the RPM listening party in Portsmouth. Radio ready. Not sort of. Ready now.
The knee-bucking harmony leads into a Spiders From Mars-style glam riff? So good, it's practically unfair.
GF channels Cheap Trick and sets the Alonetone power pop bar just a wee bit higher for the rest of us.
You out-did me on the new wave vibe. Awesome job!

This is a tremendous song. It reminds me of The Cure circa 1986. I do wish the vocals were a bit more prevelant, though.
A really great live version of one of my favorites from Sunny, sorta...
Has anyone ever told you that you sound like Robyn Hitchcock? Cool stuff!
@Mischief - are you referring to the backing vox? That's all me. 2 guitars, bass, Addictive Drums, and 4-5 voices. I assume "steezy" is something good. = )
Holy crap, Clarke! You've been hiding a gem like this from me! Great 80's vibe.
Hah! What a fabulous song to start my day with! Great work, Colin.
