A simple song in Open D.
It's a cold, and frosty night,
Stars are shining,
Shining bright.
A wintry breeze, through the trees,
Stoke the fire,
Beat the freeze,
It's a winter's tale.
Mull the wine, and cook the fare,
The larder…

A song about a few characters I remember growing up in Portsmouth, UK. Sadly they all had Mental health problems, but 50 plus years ago no one really cared.
I misread that as "tropical" ... I do need to get my eyes tested ... so I found it wasn't quite as cheery as I'd first imagined! Cool tune, and sentiments I share sometimes.
Is this autobiographical? I feel like I hardly know you 😆
Oh, I just got to the lead break. ..... very nice.
Another foot tapper. You just keep cranking them out. By the way, I used to live and drive Hwy 23 every day for years.

Two hours before morning light
Highway signs go by all night
Open window to catch the breeze

Road noise rumbling through the floor
Been on this road once or twice before

This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!
I borrowed the title from one of my favourite madrigals, The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons:
"The silver swan who living hath no note, when death approached…
This was a song I wrote last year, and haven't recorded until last night. We had a jam session at my place, so you'll hear some folks you know on this live recording.. Feels like a old time sing-a-long as I listened again this morning.

Chunk put this Jazzy version up on the otherside and asked if anyone wanted to add a vocal and i was on it not sure it works a 100% but hey it was fun trying.........Thanks Chunk
Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

Nobody loves you
Like you…
a little bit of blues....live in the living room at the end perfect timing the wife opens the door ans says See you later.........
my baby’s gone and i don’t know what to do
my baby’s left me, she left me cold that is true
she gone and left…
It’s a lasting impression
Every time that you call
It’s my only intention
Leave you nothing at all
Whenever you ask me
I’m doing just fine
It’s the dance that I do
Every single time
It aint what it looks like, not like that at…
This song pretty much sums up my life right now. No direction and no ambition.
Maybe because it's SpringTime and Love is in the air.
In keeping with the romantic nature of the season, it features:
BANJO . . . . . The instrument made…
Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
Greg let me have another go at one of his songs and I the wrote the words and music for a bridge
so that way he has to pay me some royalties when he sells a million !!! lol thanks Greg for your inspiration and great music!!
A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…
This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.

Lovely just lovely!
Oh yeah. This is a nice one. Love the lyrics.
Introspective and touching. A heartfelt emotional message.
beautiful lyrics and raw feeling - very nicely done.
Yes .... I like this!
Oooh yeah. Saw the notification for this yesterday, that's why I popped in, to check it out. This is a mighty fine "just a little ditty"
I stopped by for another listen after a ripping cold weekend. Happy New Year Roger!
Perfect song for the weather here! Snow is falling and your lovely lyrics are the perfect backdrop.
I love that twelve string sound. This song reminds me of cuddling up and watching the winter weather out the window. Beautiful.
sounds like a colorful bunch indeed!
cool shimmery chorus effect and really nice vocal harmonizing
Cool song. But, if you've been sat on it for a few months, she's probably forgotten you! OR.... yes! ...maybe she's sat on a similar song herself?
“Rain is Falling” let’s hope the Sun will peak out soon.
Melancholy indeed….

Second listen, lovely.

Beautiful song, great imagery. The view from your window is a LOT better than mine.
I love that 12 String. Excellent song.
Nice early J.J. Cale vibe going on.
