When I was a junior in high school, I read the book "Illusions" by Richard Bach. It was "that book" for me and at age sixteen I started realizing what I was capable of becoming.
I read it again twenty-five years later, and as the line in the…

Back For More was the 5th song written for Naked Sunday's first EP. It is about a girl(just like most of them) and her moving away right after things were just starting to get serious. This song expresses the anger, denial, and acceptance of the…

Bad Decisions was the last song added to the original EP, but was actually written years before the band formed. Jason co-wrote this song with his old college roommate and the song was revived for the new EP. It is a simple song about the joys…

Close Enough, like Bad Decisions, was also written before the band was formed and brought back for the first EP. It was written after a pretty hard break up and is still a personal favorite.

Gone Away is a song co-written by Wyatt and Jason about something that everyone has dealt with at some point in their life. It's about the uncertainty that surrounds relationship and dealing with trying to hold onto something that everyone knows…

Where are you tonight? is another song co-written by Jason and Wyatt and is a song about a feeling of uncertainty and how not knowing is way worse than hearing bad news.

The first song started for RPM 2014, and the first song finished. The rhythm guitars are a doubled 12-string. The vocals are doubled, when not in harmony. Doubling has become one of the minor themes this year.

MIGHT BE A SIGN
I didn’t think about you all this weekend
While I was standing in the rain
I didn’t worry ‘bout where you were going
Or where you might have been
It might be a sign I’m going insane
I didn’t think about you all this evening…

The singing here is terrible but it is a fun dance and not a bad tune. There is a YouTube video which also has links to another guitar instruction video.

This is totally different from anything else I have ever done, pretty crazy and very poor rap I am sure but I do like it and I would love to find an adventurous bunch of people to do it as a dance.

This manages to build up quite a head of steam from a very basic melody.

I would never play or lead this dance any longer. But I know some people will like it. It contrasts what are thought of as male and female names for the divine Unity - as if something as vast as the divine would have any limited characteristic.

This, along with the male voice opening track is very simple and very strong. Walking anticlockwise in file, arms straight up, palms up for Hayy (Life), arms down, palms push towards earth, for Allah.

THE LIGHT OF YOUR SMILING FACE
I’ve been warming my hands in the light of your smiling face
I never knew what I was missing
I thought I had it all
Summer fading in the distance
I wasn’t ready for the fall
Leaves turn gold

One of my favorites from this year's album, probably because I didn't have to write the back story.
Little sis wrote a novel called "The Wishmaker" set on an island off the coast of Maine. I'm betting y'all'll be seeing it on shelves soon…

clenching teeth

your eyes are just slivers on your face
rosy glow
on your porcelain cheeks
there is nothing not a trace

losing sleep

you can barely keep afloat

I awake with a song
it saves me from everything
I can’t feel my toes
shiver from the cold
rub, the sleep
from my eyes
and sing along, sing along
rays, of sun
harmonize
we sing along, sing along
I will dream this too
a miracle…

there’s no around anymore to take me away
should I be a hermit in a barrel
