These Good Times,
In this Old Life
Are Earned...
Not Learned...
I’ve seen old faces,
Fade away,

absolutely, totally, completely love this song Tharek. This is the treatment that this song needed, it sounds so frigging good this way, unbelievable brother. That Geir is some kind of guitar god.

Happy New Year, Tharek!
Hey, great track, this one (although I've come to expect good stuff from you on a regular basis). So glad to be the first to come by and hear, comment on, and fave this song!

My heart will miss a beat
Each time
I see your pain
I know this is the end
But I
Will fight this tide
The battle is complete
Both sides
Have won this time
I will remember you
So proud…
Alright Tharek, i made it man. All 48 tracks listened to and can i say this is some seriously good sh*t?!?!?!?!?! I tried to wait to comment until the end, but the songwriting, music, and production is pro. Loved every second of it....maybe you could do like a box set CD release !! :)

When I first started to play Guitar in April 2009, Geir was there to help me create tracks...
This is one where I put down a an amature track and he made something from it...

Great vocals and lyrics... made up on the spot, eh? The whole song gives me the feeling of traveling through a busy place unnoticed, slowly, inching along... great track.
The explanation for this is a bit long, so if you're just looking for the lyrics, switch over to "about" and click the "view more" box below.
So I'm eating fish and chips at an Irish restaurant waiting to play an open mic in Saratoga over at…
rpm 2011
Black is white and up is down
Flying high stuck on the ground
Open your mouth to say one thing
You always do the opposite
Hypocrite, can’t you see
Hypocrite, you and me
Hypocrite, all we do
Hypocrite, me and you
Do as I say but not…
This is a song I made at my cabin last fall ... didn't have anything new to say so the lyrics are a bit out there ... anyway ... this is "Nothing new" ... all recorded on my Boss BR800
This has to one of my faves from you G-man!
Absolutly love the guitars from you on this!
The lyrics are sublime and seem to lead on from your other songs so well!
That instrumental break down in the middle is amazing!

It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
Oh man!
I hear ya bro!
The reason I do a lot of one track stuff is because all I get is 3 mins sometimes...
In the dead of night! So I have to sing low...
If my son see's me with a guitar, he wants to play it... And daddy aint allowed!
Open mic is the best bro (For the modern day songwriter.. Lol)
And this is a perfect tribute to the concept!
Your voice is awesome in this by the way!
Love the carefully placed F*cks!
Awesome slice of life you got hear!
Awesome!
A slightly destructive children's song... But I suspect that many of you have tried some of the things mentioned.
I have a great idea up in my head
Let's try it out this afternoon
We'll tie the dog up to the sled
Pretend we're launching…
Don't Know how I missed this....
This is a Suberb Song!
Really does strike a chord with me!
The flooring reference is something I think about daily in my adult life! Lol.. Still fun!
This rules!
Happy New year!
(Lyrics posted below) A fun song I wrote with Kenneth from songcrafters.org. Its about having fun making music with friends from all over the world, connected by the internet and these great music sites that we all belong to.

For everyone who lives in a bright sunny place. Got lots of snow in the mountains today.
On days like these, there are only 4 things to do:
1)start fire
2)shovel snow
3)Make music (inside, not on deck)
4)access EWABS (emergency wine and beer…
Just spent Half an hour waiting for my pay to hit my back account at Midnight...

I am leaving this week for a while but couldnt resist adding as the third collaborator on this excellent track by Keith Landry and Osckilo before I go.
Added some bass,ambient stings, and of course sleigh bell
Hope you guys like it.
See you…
