Funny situation about a love they refuse to give up on. Need a break every now and then..... I was a happy boy with you as my girlfriend You talked me into marriage, we've been fighting ever since then came the time I didn't cry when you…

A song of a temptation to avoid, rude awakening of how vulnerable we may be at times. My love is on thin ice, dangerously close to the edge I can't believe a man like me could get in such a mess Oh, at home is my lovely wife unaware of…

Glockenspiel with effects - part A

Glockenspiel with effects part B

Going to start uploading (some of) the old RPM archive. because. I remember this one came out of being mildly irked how many waltz-rhythm pop and alternative songs had "waltz" in the title. Why never a gavotte? A sarabande?

when political rant but no, pettier! The good news is that i pioneered my "hit mandolin strings with a pencil to sound dulcimer-ish" technique, and not everybody gets that kind of chance in life.

several songs were recorded in my bathroom, to my phone. This one got an actual-microphones-and-counterpoint-on-melodica treatment later, but here's this version.

seriously i can only get CREATIVELY angry in the weirdest and pettiest ways.

three chords and the exclamation point title

not a song i'm proudest of, but 12-string guitars are such magic i couldn't cut it either.

Another song from my 2013 RPM Challenge album. I always like this one, but I'm not sure I did it justice this time. There is a lot of really sloppy guitar playing, even if the Klon KTR overdrive pedal sounds EPIC. Sorry, gear nerd. This…

a *song about songwriting* I hate that sort of thing but i loved this one?

gimmick: melodica (if you haven't played one, it's like a mini-keyboard that sounds like a harmonica and also really hates you if you have wimpy lungs)

(Sadly, sometimes one friend thinks they are more than friends?) Friend, she calls me friend. and I'll never tell her the truth What I feel, how I wish that this friend could be so much more But she's too close to ever see, that this friend…

A song about two sides of Nashville. One, loving and perfect to nurture an upcoming songwriter. Two, a business of endless circles of deception and frustration. I mostly know the second..... The rejection letters keep piling up, saying your…

(Funny song about an embarrassing moment that turned out well.) I was making the rounds, gaining ground on this cute little brunette In a bar in Fort Worth, Texas, one night I'll never forget But then that bartender ruined my plans…

Dancehall by oladreezy

2013 was a decent year, song wise. I came up with a few good ones during the RPM Challenge in February, and one good one during NaSoAlMo in November. This version is faster, shorter, has a bunch of new key changes, and has a little bit of…

It’s like floating down a river When you’re not quite in control That river’s going to take you Only where it wants to go So you reach out with conviction At debris along the way That river’s going to take you If you give up and say…

This didn't go as planned... I wrote this song for my wife Nicola while I was away in the UK working in March 2020... I excitedly played it to her from 3,500 miles away over the ether and.... I think she was expecting a ballad rather than a rather…

Like beavers and willows Bats and mosquitos Toad frogs and flies Like algae and oil spills Miners and coal hills Black holes and light (C) 2020 Royal T Music

This song was written for those interested to hear a list of breakfast cereals. Also, when you reverse "all brands kellogg's" you can hear "smell that in your pool" which makes an interesting title.
