You've got a really good feel here, man. Haunting piano-work and great lyricism. I really like your singing too. Nothing to critique here. Perfection. Thanks for listening to my tracks as well. I hope you liked it. I really need to work on lots of things.
I hope you are getting gigs doing this stuff man. Keep up this style and you will go somewhere for sure ^.^

In the day and in the night,
We are watching you.

i'm loving this 15 seconds in........excellent trim the garden wind the clock......i'll remember the tune.....its coming to the car with me......wether it fights or not.....
slightly different mix for sinbad multitrackstudioforum who suggested a vocal boost and some creepy Vincent Price reverb(i may have given it too much of a boost though)
sort of vaguely electroskank arrangement with some hints of klezmer &…
Love this ...the sound effects lift it to a whole different level...much enjoyed ,great stuff......sort of Bowie meets Warner ....and his brother !

lo-tek eclektro version of 'a character disorder' by the nu psimians
I've got a character disorder
you know they say I've got a borderline
personality disorder
and I'm sick of taking orders
like a waiter or or a nun
I want to be…
Great remix ....like the out of breath sounding vocal...and the crazing percussion...piano's great....i'm going to sleep in a sweat tonight with my own character disorder.....the imagery the music conjures is excellent sat here in the dark.....i can feel my chest filling with anxiety....hope it's not a heart attack......love to see and hear this on a stage ...well....who am i kidding ..... i will tonight in my dreams ....excellent job
live in the kitchen vox + piano only no fx version
and i don’t know what you mean
about the things i haven’t seen
it isn’t easy being green
when all you ever say is mean
you know i tried to keep it clean but
you were messing up my scene…
Love it ....love it...screaming like a queen...to these great lyrics...Green with envy......i'm pretty sure you've been everywhere in your dream...next time you go i'd like to come if there's room

This is some weird stuff! i like the flow of the instruments followed with your accompanied weird-like vocals. reminds me of Tom Waits.
Weird in an Awesome way that is.
He gone and lost his belief in love ..........for No4............
Thank god we've drank all the wine ...only sleep left!!
I lost my belief in love....adlib......
Singer/songwriter simple acoustic track. I wrote these lyrics in church one day, they wanted us to move to the middle of the aisle, I don't like the middle of the aisle
This is a piece written for the Linux Musicians Uncompetition (http://www.linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10331).
The purpose of such un-competition is making some music with Linux tools, and then share it.
The premise for this…
I've been messing and listening to a lot of Tom Waites i suppose his influence has rubbed of a bit ...well a little anyway...........
I want the love (Lyrics)
Crawling in the gutter trying to stand with phone
To tell you that I love you…
Heres one from the cellar last night .......Raining again so i got the £16 special out and let some Blues loose with some 2 finger Keyboard drums.....................
..and the next one is...
Acting Like a Fool
Laying here half asleep
with sun shinning down through the window it peaks
The crack of the curtain shows the world outside
What have I done where have I been
was I really back out on the scene…
Reg and Regfunkel reunion tour 2012...live in the Bunker...
Yesterday's Dreamer
Yesterday's dreamer sat on the sidewalk
Trying to find a way through his clouded mind
There was no rhyme or reason
To why he was feeling so down inside…
Smear this all over your face. You know you want to, IT'S EAR Food!
(I once found a lobster trying to invade my space in that area while awakening on the shore of a Tropical Island post Shipwreck..)
Have you ever been let down badly by that so called friend and lost hope in the very idea of friendship........
I Need a friend (Lyrics)
I need a friend who doesn’t need me
i need a friend who doesn’t bleed me
i need a friend who doesn’t hurt…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
The reunion was on...they came from far and wide....it was held on Easter Sunday down at.....the new cellar of Regs...chiseled in to the Yorkshire Granite ....sound proofed....bomb proof.....as they say it started with a beat...everything was…
I did this one with Neil Swanson form over on Songcrafters Last night.....were working Elvis overtime at the moment but at least he can sleep all day.........Reg gets his 316 special going on this one too.....Hope you enjoy
It's never too late…

superb
lovely
nice one etcetera
beautiful as the chance meeting on a dissecting-table of a sewing-machine and an umbrella
nice
love it
lovely spooky & surprising sounds
great!
love this one too are the lyrics addressed to each other?
i think that last line was meant to be "or was it lost in the wastes of time" - simeon regfunkel
fabulous reg & reg
now that's lovely
[previous comment cont.)& how it combines so unexpectedly deliciously with the accordion & carribbean dubbiness
excellent. love the juxtaposition of the reg-noir-narrator prose-style & delivery-tone with the very un-noir sentiment
lovely
excellent tregs!
excellent!
welcome home trelveges
fabulous
very nice words & fine rhyming
