My tribute to Anne Boleyn, the first queen to be publicly executed in England. I used some of the poetry she wrote during her imprisonment in the chorus. An innocent, incomparable woman.

You might also dig what Big Time Operator [who is not me] did to my "niaR" track -- what you might call a remix, but it's actually something more -- he used the song like an instrument, playing it on a track of the mix down of his own creation:

Gene Eric Mann (generic man) and I, Justin Otter Guy (just another guy) are the same person -- I'm also on AloneTone as Merry Bear and, with my soul-mate, as Nightmoth. Anyway, thank you for listening to and kindly commenting on so many of my G.E.M. songs. Regarding "niaR" (Rain spelled backwards), here is "another way" of listening to the same track, a way that your 8 year old might better understand and actually appreciate:

Now ain't that gorgeous! Great job, y'all! Everything works -- vocals, lyrics, percussion, the ambience -- everything. It all comes together wonderfully, and the mix down and mastering job is marvelously tasteful.

Great song writing - loving the sentiment and your tender vox here. I love it when the FAWM and RPM parameters draw out his kind of track, any more of an arrangement would detract from the message - IMHO.

I was meant to be resting and chilling.
In fact, I was resting and chilling.
But then I got a message from Lala saying she was listening to the…
I should've paid attention
When my buddy mentioned
The state of all the guys you'd left behind
You looked so young and wild
With that come-and-get-it smile
You'd taken over something in my mind
When we were together
I should've seen the…
In the final few minutes
That I'll be around
Will you waltz with me in it
Would you turn me down
Would you turn me down
As the time's running out
And I make my advance
Would there be any doubt
If I take the chance
Can I have one…
A beautiful closer to an awesome, complex RPM album. So lovely to hear new stuff from you. I agree with will of the sun, this *could* be your last, but I'd love to hear that lighter, more optimistic side of you in your final few moments! What a year it's been.
The vastness of the ocean
A darkness in the sky
A lifetime of emotion
How hard you've had to try
To navigate the currents
And the demons in the deep
You have to stay awake
'Cuz they might take you in your sleep
You wish that you could…
Heard something crawling in the walls this morning
Later on, I heard that fateful snap
The little critter never had a warning
I'll have to head on down to face the guilt that's waiting
When I check the trap
A pair of trees I planted in…
I suppose it could be worse
I know I'm lucky I'm all right
But I can tell that you've been cursed
And it keeps me up at night
So few are born to come in first
So many born into a fight
If the roles had been reversed
Would they still believe…
If I told you how well I know you
Would you tell me it's not true
Have you got yourself believing
No one could know you like I do
I know it's been a long time coming
So many others you thought would treat you right
But I'm gonna show you…
Everybody's looking for a savior
To tell them how to live before they die
As if they can't control their own behavior
Or trust what they can see with their own eyes
Mindlessly believing what you tell 'em
When everything you tell 'em is a…
The coffee table gang helped me round out this one that I shared earlier. I love this version with Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor's wonderful talents on the backup vocals and guitars. I like how my ukulele blended in on this version.
Sometimes…
I write letters, but I don't send them and they go unanswered. I take them out and rewrite them, picking up the words and clarifying the meanings. I wait in hope that a reply will come someday.
I continue the conversation when it's long over…
I wrote this one yesterday. A little something to bring hope for the future.... there's always time to begin anew.
Thanks to Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren for their wonderful guitars and vocals on this one - recorded yet again around my kitchen…
Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration.
Many thanks to Brian of A Beautiful Scene…
Comments on Sister Savage's stuff
Kudos to all involved! Excellent work! :-)
Love this...
Great groove! Great upfront vocal. w;-)
Wow! What a production. Glad to see your doing RPM. That means MORE, without the please part. :) Real cool!
:) x
Exceptional vocal tracks -- sultry and sweet. Great delivery, tasteful, warm, cozy.
I just love your voice! This was really a cool track.
Oh yes, that's the stuff!
Woo! Like it.
Fantastic! I am pleased to have played a part in this.......Thank you.
Good job with Blind Eye on the RPM Website. I was wondering if you would post it here on Alonetone?

Oh Tess, still making lovely music. You gonna RPM this year? Hope so! x
Beautiful!!
Another great track. Very impressive vocal talent.
That is one wicked bass line! Far out vocals. What a amazing, delicious mix down -- Rock on!
Brilliant

A sweet almost-lullaby - glad this one found a home in your February. So very pretty.
Really love this melody and the breezy feel. Some gorgeous little acoustic guitar runs in there too.
Great song writing - loving the sentiment and your tender vox here. I love it when the FAWM and RPM parameters draw out his kind of track, any more of an arrangement would detract from the message - IMHO.
Woohoo! Logged in and back from Brighton. <3 Can now fave this utter classic.
This brought a smile - I've been here. This is probably my favourite.

Great to hear so many elements in this album - wonderful layering throughout, and the electric guitar in this track is so perfectly placed.
Great song writing - great arrangement.
Great moody vibe - love the depth added by the bvox towards the end.
This is a gem. Ah, lovely stuff!
Love the overlays at the end - that works beautifully in pulling out the hook!
Wonderful - chill and positive and vibey.
Wonderful song, Colleen, as ever your writing is just so timeless and beautiful.
Just fabulous - stunning!
Loving the music on 'tone tonight - this is clever and stunning - as always!
So I'm following a feminine ethereal being through green wisps and flowers and waterfalls...just for a moment, an unbroken world.
I'M PLAYING THIS ON REPEAT WHILE THE TRICK OR TREATERS VISIT ME COME SAMHAIN. I win. Gorgeous work! The violin especially - majestic touch!
Such warmth, Colleen. What a wonderful soul you are. Beautiful!
Was so fun to join in, as always! Sounds great, Tim. :)
Belongs in a road movie, at night, weaving through dark underbelly streets, just because.
