This never turned out like I wanted it to be because I could not find a real drummer and bassist for it. But at least Alina was kind enough to play the lead guitar…
Thanks everybody for your comments on this and other songs of mine! It's good to know that there are a couple of folks out there who like some of my songs. :)
Feel free to criticize though! We all cannot get better without honest, constructive criticism.

This celtic folk piece is a collaboration with lyricist Donna Devine.
This is Donna's explanation:

I'm not superstitious, but ... I did not want to end the day with 13 uploaded songs. :D
Here is another old one. Not mixed as good as I think I could do it now, but it could be much worse. ;)

Like "Wish" this song was an attempt by me to put a free-form poem by Grant…
Have you made an effort to be in touch with the film makers in your part of the world? Your state probably has a film comission. If you haven't already, I suggest you do and then begin to find about what is in the works in your state and offer to submit music to the college and independent film makers.
I had this tune in my head for years before I finally sat down and recorded a quick draft of it. I would like to record this with real instruments (acoustic guitar + electric lead guitar).
Anybody interested in helping me?
This is the new version!

Just a little rock song.
Steffen, You have a really great bunch of musical friends. Are these people you have in your real world or do write with people from all over? What is your process? Do you swap .wav files?

This was one of my first compositions ever (I started writing songs in 2004/2005). I don't have the original audio seps any more, just this MP3 file, so I cannot do a decent remix. And I'm too lazy to re-do it all from scratch. :)

When I composed this little instrumental song I did not use very good sounds for it, and I did not yet know (or bother) how to edit the midi sounds to make them sound better.
This is just a quick remix using the same old sounds. I don't think…

This is the 2012 remix.
This song was based on a free-form lyric by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland. Quite a challenge ... :)
THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
Acoustic tale of revenge. Recorded 2010 on a Boss BR1600CD.

**The Knife - A A J Russe**
A dark and star-less night
Probably driving rain
That's what they think became of me
A foolish walk along the cliff when he was drunk…
A cover of Justin Currie's Sleep Instead of Teardrops. Recorded 2010.
It has always been one of my favourite Del Amitri songs. I was strumming away at it one day and my missus said I should record it...

Acoustic love song. Written and recorded between Christmas 2010 and the New Year.
I'd just finished recording Elizabeth's Room and was tooling up to record a pop-rock song when this little beast popped out of nowhere, almost perfectly formed…
Haven't listened to this wonderful song in a while although I have it on my mp3 player (like all your other songs too).
Great to hear this beauty again.
I couldn't get anything right today so I just mashed through a guitar track and overlayed vocals. But now I kind of like the song so it will have to be redone.
So sit back and relax, don't shower or shave and have a beer!

One of my two contributions to a "Beatlesfest" we had over on songcrafters.org a few months back.
I still can't believe I covered this... having done it though, it feels like nothing is sacred. And, more worryingly, I feel I might possibly…
I usually do not listen to cover songs, but a cover done by one of my favorite musicians I could not resist. :)
Great adaption, Andy. Still I prefer your original songs by far.
Some people measure things by inches and miles,
gallons and quarts and sometimes smiles, but I got a measure that I made up: I measure my orange juice by the "blub, blub, blub.".
I had the music for this for about three months , and the lyrics for about a year , one day i just happened to start singing and playing them together and bingo , this is done live
This was written as part of a concept album inspired by the work of Pablo Picasso ,Trevor Lewis is a member of Songcrafters music forum , he came up with the idea of writing poems to 12 Picasso paintings , then put them out for people to put music…
When the girl in the room is just too cute for me to concentrate on whatever it was I was trying to do.
Anything Done
How am I supposed to get anything done
With you looking like that
I'm so far gone
I'm forgetting where I'm at
How…
I did not sleep enough last night, and it's all your fault! I listened to all the songs of yours that I had downloaded to my mp3 player instead.
Great music and guitar playing.
I'm finally happy with this track - v1 was too much of a nothing song and it's been bugging me all the way to the last night of the challenge.
1 more to mix

Love this ..beautiful....excellent lyrics...love it
Another good one Steffen! Love the arrangement and the lyrics. The most Beatles sounding song I have heard of yours.

Hello, I just signed up today, and wanted to drop in and say hello to you.... This is a nice collab that I've enjoyed since I first heard it... LG
love it agree with James........perfect as it is
I can't imagine what your standards are topping out at if you apologize for this mix. This is beautiful.
oooo!
Have you made an effort to be in touch with the film makers in your part of the world? Your state probably has a film comission. If you haven't already, I suggest you do and then begin to find about what is in the works in your state and offer to submit music to the college and independent film makers.
If I can figure out how to download this track I will add rhythm guitars.
Steffen, You have a really great bunch of musical friends. Are these people you have in your real world or do write with people from all over? What is your process? Do you swap .wav files?
Kicks ass. Love it. Wish I could do stuff like this. Sooooo poppy!
Beautiful! If this was one of your first you certainly got off to a wonderful start!
Love the guitars on this track!
Love the taste of Paris here in the summer. Especially in August when it's pretty empty. A most romantically pretty track.
beautiful tune........wonderful playing.....
incredible.
A cello with this would be so nice...or a whole bed of strings to undergird that melody.
Very nice. So clear and clean. Nice voice too. I see you collaborate with other musicians. Feel free to ask me to do background vocals.
Awesome. This reminds me of something from the Ghost in the Shell soundtrack. (I really dig that soundtrack.)
Brina really has a great voice. Very well done once again, my friend!

Impossible not to love this song. Definitely a song to be proud of.
Simply Great, Andy. You set the bar high.
BTW - I've just looped this songs three times. :D
Hey, I must have missed this one. Downloaded! :)
Haven't listened to this wonderful song in a while although I have it on my mp3 player (like all your other songs too). Great to hear this beauty again.
Pretty Song, Tharek. But where are all the great songs you posted at Songcrafters? Regards, Steffen
Pretty good for "I couldn't get anything right". ;)
Another proof that a good voice needs nothing more than a guitar or a piano.
Nice song with a very pleasant voice.
I usually do not listen to cover songs, but a cover done by one of my favorite musicians I could not resist. :) Great adaption, Andy. Still I prefer your original songs by far.
Great playing. Very moody!
Great funny stuff! :)
As great as simple. Wonderful composition and performance.
Soft and haunting. Great music!
I like this song even more then Geurnica - if that's possible. I could listen to your voice for hours.
I still love this song, Rob. And your voice is giving me goosebumps. Great job!
I did not sleep enough last night, and it's all your fault! I listened to all the songs of yours that I had downloaded to my mp3 player instead. Great music and guitar playing.
Great! :)
Finally happy ... and you have a good reason to be! Good old times folk. :)
This is a song ... of great quality! :)
