Come as you are, as you were,
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, ‘cause I want you with me.
Take your time, but hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend, for a warm memoria
Memoria [x3]
Come to…
Cover of the Smiths song from 1983.
One of the big influences on my life.
For the Songcrafters.org fest.
I've added my own 'Newport Remix' at the end in the style of 80's remixes.
So here is a piece which I first wrote and recorded around 20 years ago in the early 90's. For a long time it had no title, just known as "bounces along keys". Lately I've been toying with the idea of rerecording it. Then a couple of weeks…

Love your style as always man, great job on this cover! Thanks for the comment as well! It's definitely good to be back on alonetone making music with my fellow musicians again :)
It's a cover of the Electric Light Orchestra song from the 70's, done for the Songcrafters.org 70's-fest.
At the risk of undermining my image as original 70's I-was-there punk, I was actually quite into ELO back in the day.
sup, odh, I like this and the 'Friends of Mine' cover, two bands I dig and think you do nice, personal covers of both. The swirling, subtle distortion in the far corners is lovely.
My humble tribute to Wilko Johnson, recently diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Wilko has always been a massive influence on my music and I will miss him when he's gone...
My recent fascination / obsession with the Devoto-era Buzzcocks is over. Here's an early Magazine song.
Was going to be done unplugged style - the guitar parts were originally guide parts to be replaced with acoustic parts. I got to like them…

"Natural Lovers"
As the sun gradually warms
the cool morning air
crashing waves erode time
layer after layer
and bright bumble bees
multiply wild flowers
Oceans get deeper
hills become towers
I became your man.
Like the very…
The passport, acapulco and finding out about the affair with Reg was the final straw ithe saga of Desirea and Reg is finally over Reg has drawn a line in the sand and stepped over it. It over and done he washes his hands of her. So he went out…
I wish I could say that I had a story behind this but I have none :( Thanks to all those that put their input into this, particularly GCD, I cannot overstate how helpful this was.
wrote and recorded this one earlier today. drums and keys on juno di and vocals, then geir took it to another level with his guitar additions.
well nothing isn't happening
just the silence burning bright
the shadow casts a resonance
of the echoes…
watched a lot of silly TV a week I had the flu .... the title of this song is inspired from an episode of "How I met your mother" ... the rest of the lyrics are a mashup of silly nonsence and deep philosofical poetry .... yeah right :)
Lyrics:
home
it's where the heart was
when you cared
but i don't go there anymore
we don't go there anymore
and let's face it
she was never really there
despite all and everything she breathed to me
i thought in confidence because she…
What You Forgot is an electronics / percussion piece that uses Absynth and Dimension Pro in two different harmonic series tuning (5 limit and 7 limit). The percussion is provided by Kontakt. The piece was preformed on an AXiS 49 in one pass…
"My Love Belongs To You"
I may not know what I want to wear
or the best way to style my hair
I don’t know where I want to live
but I do have a lot of love to give
I don’t have many answers in life
but there’s one important one I do
and…
rehearsal recording

Lyrics:
======
I hate you when you breathe. Could you stop?
Waking up is hard to do when sleep never comes
But your ugly faces woke me up...
Callous sycophants
I know you too well to rest again
I'll stay up forever. I'll be ready
I've seen…
dedicated to a pretty girl I know... :P
also note there is a meager attempt at video for this song!
Lyrics:
======
smile for me, pretty girl
smile for me, please
i'd do anything you want
to get you to acknowledge me
but i breathe…

Comments on odh's stuff
Nice one lol!

Some catching ride.
As you say it bounces along very nicely.
cool one, ODH. Good melody, very angular type of song, love the synth and especially the piano track.
braw tell yer maw!
Love this....seriously good!
Great cover love the approach.....
Awesome job! You pulled of Curt Cobain quite nicely!
Love your style as always man, great job on this cover! Thanks for the comment as well! It's definitely good to be back on alonetone making music with my fellow musicians again :)

LOVE IT! Captures the vibe of the original and moves it on.
Unique take on that own. Nice choice.
Nice cover!

Good work, Trevor. More from the sensitive side
Typical bloke...
Mental. I love it.
Beautiful piece, love how it develops
Honoured to be the first listener to this monumental piece.
Stunning. GWF both. Loved the guitar. And the lack of any ping-pong echo on the vocal.
That's some great song writing there Geir. I love when it kicks off in the middle
Loads of fun. Good songs..
Big themes with a light touch. Speaks to me
This is cool, I like, not horrid in the slightest. "Both clarinet parts are played live by me" - not at the same time though, I presume?
Beautiful soundscapes
Wow, Trevor, you have a happy side! Did you see that film Juno? This would fit right in. Great work.
Sounds like a hit to me. Great song, great sound
Not always sure what you were saying but it made me smile. I hate batman too, now.
Definitely getting Rubicon era Tangerine Dream, which to me is a Very Good Thing. Lovely stuff...
Stunning. Likewise one of my fave bands, and Lamb one of my fave albums. I love this.
Great ending
couple'a dark undertones here. Intreaguing.
I shouldn't listen to this while operating heavy machinery. Alex is right, mental, but in a good way...
Almost a bit Cowboy Junkies in its nudity. Great guitar sounds and excellent vocal delivery.
