headin home on a saturday night,
left early to come and make you feel all right,
went to quench this thirst of mine,
chew a stick of dynamite,
my stomachs turning and my head is light,
going to a town i left behind.

KY69. Based on a Californian radio station that plays awesome music all around the clock. The characters are wildly in love but won't admit it. The car is outrageously sporty.
Apart from everything mentioned in the lyrics, it's a true story…

So, I get this e-mail from a friend who had gone to NYC for a conference. At this conference she meets the love of her life, and the weekend turns into a steamy one spent locked in a hotel room. Slight problem...she was already married. She didn…

To protect and serve their corporate masters, cops have been getting away with massive atrocities on the streets of our lovelorn cities, this is a little stab at their black and white world of corruption and double standards.

This great old (Public Domain) song by Stephen Foster which I just do and has nothing to do with my current state of life but may not be true for others.
I do this song in a most unusual way. That is to say I changed the melody of the verses…

Mick McGuire was "all that" when he was dating the family's older daughter (who was 40). As soon as he married her and spent all the money, poor Mick was subjected to his Mother-In-Law. Mother-in-Laws have gotten a bad wrap for hundreds of years.

This was the song that launched the entire SHAM ROCK album. This is what happens when you turn up the tempo, crank the volume, and add a horn section.
As with most of these songs, we came up with our own music to add to these songs. So, the…

This old song had a lot of braggin' in it. So, we couldn't resist giving it a bit of the old skool hip-hop flavor.

I Believe by far my most beautiful instrumental track, much the
opposite of You Forgot Bush's War Crimes. Maybe because I haven't commited any?
I'm growing to accept that most of the time, my instrumentals should be short and
sweet.

I've never heard "Horse with No Name" all the way through, and i wasn't trying to
rip it off, but i really like the melody i wrote for this and it turned out to fit
perfectly with the sound of the bass. Really proud of my composing on this track…

This was supposed to be my "folky" track, but I love the way this turned out.
It was originally written Napalm Shoot up but My Chair took it's place on that
album.

Drinking coffee at my modest kitchen table around noon, after just waking up, I

A couple months in a metal band called Season's Legion inspired this song. The
lyrics were written in what we (Katie Lawrence Co-wrote) thought would be what

Inspired partly by a co-worker who was a great, now lost musician. This track is
somewhat about my five year stint in Gallup, New Mexico (Bob Dylan anyone?). This
was written as a poem before I started writing Slumber Love.

I'm not usually good at mixing two of my songs together, but i think this turned
out great. Maybe a little too Velvet Underground. Maybe nothing is ever too
Velvet Underground... Written just for Abide.

Supposed to be the biggest joke on this album, Candle turned more into an actual
like-able song. I was trying to make fun of Sonic Youth stuff, but it ended up
growing and becoming an instant Mud Octave classic track. The Lyrics were written…

This is one of the songs I wrote for Filthy Time that's been hiding
in the back of a notebook waiting for music to be chugged out. I'm
really glad I let this seep for a while before letting loose.

3. This is the "preferred" track from the 2008 challenge, and I think it stands well by itself. It is the narrative climax to the piece. Thanks, Mick!

This is a song that I wrote. Once again I am playing all of the instruments and doing the singing. The style has been described as a mixture of Depeche Mode and the Human League, but I don't know why anyone would think it sounds like the Human…

Another silly a cappella.

I did a brief stint where I used loop libraries.
I still feel as though this track should say "written by Robert Rich".
This is also why I no longer do loop libraries.
