Once
Upon a life
Do we find
A happy ending

Are the times
That we try
To race from the line
Slow down Laddy
Wont you go a little bit Slow
So Daddy can
catch up
Hey there Laddy
I could run fast in my day

I commented without reading previous comments earlier. I deleted it fearing my meaning could be misconstrued.
It is a wonderful song and I thank you from the heart for letting us share it. I agree with Andrew, not all songs give you a feeling. This one does.

Ah - you've uploaded this one as well, nice one :-)
But I still don't quite understand how you manage to channel stuff so apparently effortlessly, and invariably produce a song worth listening to at the same time. (And do it so often)
Mebbe I'll just press record one day and see what happens! (And then spend 3 hours/weeks/months twiddling with the EQ afterwards lol)

I hope a lot of people hear it. For me, it's one of those songs/performances that gives the listener a lot of reward for just listening.
My missus thinks so too (and she's the one who ALL of my stuff goes through before it gets out - I don't post anything without her reassurance first!).
Not all songs do this. And the writer never really knows that they've done it, or whether they're imposing on people with it if they have... The minute I heard it I knew this was one (might not be for everyone, I guess, but it is for me and Mrs R), and I suspected you might need to know it was cool and needs to be "out there"...

So glad you put this one up on here. Tis still as beautiful as when I first heard it this morning.
The song itself, simple and from the heart. And the performance matches it.
Wonderful creation.

Hey Rick.
Thanks bro!
It is a song about two people. My Son's Saul and Ethan.
In particular it is about Saul's first sports day and the Sports day that Ethan will never have in this life..
Ethan Passed away unexpectedly on the 1st May in his sleep at 19 days old.
I did one live track with vocal and guitar for Saul, and then did one vocal for Ethan in the background after as the song is about him as well.
Thanks again bro.
Peace

Wrote it over a decade ago, rewrote it five years ago, recorded it last year with the help of little sis Karen.
"I'm not supposed to be down south. Take me north."
To get ready for every baseball season, my father used to pitch tennis balls to me in the backyard. He had invented a pitch that defied the laws of physics. To this day, I have no idea how he threw it. The damn thing would spin like crazy like…
Great Song!
My Pa Had secret talents like that...
Sure and steady... But sure to work!
Taught me a thing about how to be a Dad...
Keep your cards close... And Never share the secret till the kid works it out for himself!
Great song!
Written for my youngest when she was very little, almost everyone who's had a kid that just would rather not sleep can identify with this song. Originally, there was a line in there about "Staying up this late at night makes me consider drinking…
I have a track called "Kin"...
I wrote it when the boy was going through "that time"...
"Kin" represented us all.. Three guitar lines. Me, the boy and his Ma...
I used to play it to him so he would sleep..
It worked... And made me realize how we would fit into each others lives..
This track brought back memories bro.
Thanks for that..
This track is eternal!
I used to cross over railway tracks on my way to the ballfield in college, and though I never knew why, I was always tempted to just start following them.
Sweet guitar bro!
I'm sure you recorded this live!
The complicated riffs only come in when you stop singing! I do the same!
Do You perform live?
I bet it would be awesome to see!
Faved!
A song written for a great girl who'll be getting married next year...
"You'll always be this young if love comes first
And you stay filled with life."
Hell yeah!
This track is Gold bro!
The true spirit of song writing...
Share lessons learned... Try and Help!
Another point about your songs..
A four minute song is a pleasure to listen to! That is hard to do bro! And you pull it off effortlesly!
The song that really kicked off this second album of 2009.
"In time all the stars will fade away
Our kind won't get to see it anyway
No shine, just endless black between the gray
I won't be going out in that way"

The sweet little girl I can't seem to get
Out of the back of my mind
Isn't quite sure what she's looking for yet
And I worry about what she'll find
Working so hard looking out for herself
I know there are times all alone
She's always had…
10 seconds in....
And the track has got me bro...
The Subject matter is Perfectly expressed...
But the performance bro...!!!!
You Don't stumble once!
Perfection......

Here's another tune from the Wild and Wacky world of Rubber.
Special thanks to Erin - The Panes for lending us her magnificent voice.
As usual, we tore it up and turned it up side down.
Thanks again Erin.

Enjoy!
One for my electronic friends. It's just a bunch of patches mixed with MIDI and glued together with 1 part water, 2 parts flour, and 2 parts ectoplasma.
Enjoy!
Ring of Fire - lyrics by Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash -1963. Slightly modified.
This wasn't meant to be Ring of Fire but that's how it wound up.
I have been wanting to trash Ring of Fire and the words just seem to fit this simple 1-4-5…
pretty child
they're cheering away
as you ride through your kingdom of sand
lovely child
you're a hero today
you're a magical mystery man
like a bird on the wing
you soar through your dreams
let your fantasies sweep the skies
but you know it…
3 guitar tracks followed by a track with the trap set. A lot of alt tuning lately posted on AT which I like. This guitar was tuned to an open G. After I did it, I thought the sound was more like a backwoods, hillbilly song.
Unfortunately…
Comments on Tharek Ali Mokbul's stuff
honest and sincere...nicely done..
And a new one from T as well! Bliss... This is wondrous. Love the "Three thousand pennies..." line.
Back for another listen. I was wondering whether the shine would have worn off after a few days... NAH! It's still wonderful :-)
I commented without reading previous comments earlier. I deleted it fearing my meaning could be misconstrued. It is a wonderful song and I thank you from the heart for letting us share it. I agree with Andrew, not all songs give you a feeling. This one does.
uplifting track....love it
That's the friend... that's hardest to find...heartfelt vocal to some heartfelt lyrics......
GREAT track, T!
A heartfelt goodby tune
Great track man. The best songs always always stike like lightning.
Had to give this another listen before I lock myself away in the room with too many guitars. Thanks for the inspiration.
Great track mate really cool.
Excellent track mate really enjoyed that.
