SHINY THINGS
Like the shiny things a crow stashes
Crumpled napkins and cold ashes
Like broken pieces when the bottle smashes
My tears don't mean anything at all
Like the golden rings around your fingers
The forgotten songs by unknown…

I wanted a loose nod to “Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues”, so I started it in the rain and ended it with returning to someplace I used to live. But then because of Bud Cort I thought the singer should inexplicably die at the end of each verse. This…

This one was originally written for the Record Every Month challenge last year. June 2023, I think. I liked it immediately and wanted to see if I could improve on it. I think I did, though marginally so. Even after spending a few months tinkering…

[Verse 1]
Too many people make too many useless procedures
Things are onerous, complicated, every trade is, extended dayshifts
They did away with extended vacations, hiatuses

It's finally here
I gotta go up to them, they never come up to me
I gotta think of something to say before they walk away from me

Song #2 for this year's RPM album....another one from the basement in the middle of the night. Experimenting with minimal lyrics and a lot of repetition. The song probably has something to do with how we left our home of many years last February…

Hey there,
This is a song that has been in my head for a while now. I think it has an amazing content. It's originally for Violin Solo, but I made an arrangement for 2 Violas and 2 Violins. I added/changed perhaps 10 notes in total, it's crazy…

Down this road
A night misspent
With ill intent
The devil came
But I’m to blame
The fire smoldered
her faith grew colder
Stabbed twice
In the heart
Her love bled
Her soul torn apart
From this day on…

Wrote this song yesterday after another long week of crummy news in the world and had the good fortune of the Minnesota song writers in my living room tonight to help me bring it to life. Greg Connor - on the cigar beat box, Colin Walterson on…
