We just finished another of Alberto's compositions.
Working with Alberto has made me listen a lot to Lucio Battisti and Lucio Dalla recently. This is exactly the vintage sound of Italo rock that I love.
I hope you like it - I do…
This is the latest remix of this old tune. I think I would call it progressive rock.

An Italian pop ballad. Mimmo sent me the lyric years ago, and I had almost forgotten the music I wrote for it. :)
Still needs a real sax.

Wow, Errol, what a wonderful song. Production is great too - except the drums (I'm not crazy about the sound).
Is that you singing? I would not have recognized your voice. Great job, really.
I had to give this a listen because it is one of my favorite Cohen songs - although I like the Rufus Wainwright version even better than Cohen's.
Yours is a very interesting interpretation. Something you have to listen to with dedication. It did not grab me immediately - but after a couple of bars you had me. And now I'll hit that heart button thing up there. :)
This song was born on the 18th of Feb. 2011. It was the last piece I wrote/recorded for the challenge. It was a very sad day for me, almost as if all my usual winter sadness was concentrated and crammed into one day. The process of writing and…
This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…
This is one of my all time favorites, and I was sure nowbody could sing this better that Rufus Wainwright. But I was wrong. Your version is just as good as his one.
I like Cohens own version very much too, btw. :)
A song about the five stages of grieving, as devised by the (late) Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Unfortunately knowing these stages does not help you get over them.
You've been managing expectations
Consultations end in tears
Even if you're optimistic…
Standing, waiting, shivering, waiting, hoping, waiting, crying - all the while being cruelly mocked by the passage of time, and my analogue watch. It was not a very nice night.
Peter Fedofsky plays the piano on this song.
If you could…
At the 23rd hour we consider whether we've made the right decisions.
Written and recorded less the 48 hours before the end of the RPM challenge deadline. I wonder why.
Is this our 23rd hour
Sixty minutes to go
Are we counting the seconds…

Magnificent track. Nice guitar work.
ciao stoman, well done! in the 80 they really had the gut to write pop songs even in minor keys, and you did it too! un saluto a domenico!
What a great song. Swaying good melody and love the vocal.
Wow, this is nice! Has a really dreamy, disco-esque sound to it, i like it.
Errol has a great voice
Love the lyrics. Ha, so true! It never ends! Lovely song, super music and vocal.
Excellent track, wonderful music and vocals.
Loved the Cloppy back beat, and the slidey Guitar sixths. cool
Excellent rock production...love the backing guitars & vocals!
Most excellent song and beautifully done.
There is something very compelling about this one
Nice treatment, melancholy drifting love song
Super song Stoman!
very nice song!nice to listen to when it rains outside :)
you really took a lot of time to sing always time time time, you should work out on your lyrics
Gorgeous composition Steffen. It turned out beautifully in the end!
Ha ha, it certainly does, not that I remember the late 60's of course! Lovely sympathic keys there Steffen.
I love this song. This is an addictive little tune you've got here..... Piepod LG
Such a lovely song Steffen.
I'm a sucker for other lanuages. This sounds perfect in Italian! Brano molto bello!

Interesting sort of inspiration. ;) Not bad, Geir. A more psychedelic mix might suit the song even better. But it sounds good as is.
Privet! :) Great music and vocals. Please post more. And more. And more ... :D
Very nice! I guess I'll listen to this song a couple more times tonight. :)

If this is what arises from depression, then there is at least one good thing about that. It's a good song, enjoyed it!
Very nice. Could well be the soundtrack for a documentary film on TV.
Wow, guys, that's a TREMENDOUS improvement on an already pretty impressive track. I love it. Great job!
Great vintage sound. Right up my alley! :)
I don't know the original, but your version sounds good. :)
Ah, damn, forgot to log in again. That latest comment was mine. ;)
If I don't stop listening to your songs now I will end up hitting the "favorite" button for all of them! :)
WOW, what a delivery. Your British accent is perfect for this. :)

What a ridiculously GREAT song! :D
Very good, downloaded. :)
Clearly influenced by the Beatles, the Beach Boys and such ... And a superb performance.
I love that piano and how your voice goes together with it. Great song!
Very nice listen! :)
Wonderful - I hear a lot of influences from many of my musical heroes, but yet you have your very own style.
