Way to smash it all together. Don't take that the wrong way. That's the only word I could think of right now. You have a much better grasp of music than me.
Hoorrrrray! My wish came true, we did a version of this instrumental with real instruments!
And the band was:
Guitars: Frank Zax
Drums: Mark Cole
Bass: Andy Gupta
Music & Production: Steffen Offermann
Enjoy!
Just a little piano ballad - another old composition. The strings have not been mixed/edited too well, sorry for that. I'll fix it some day.
It was bedtime and I suddenly felt like playing something on my keyboard. That's how this song came…

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. :)

I love this! Sounds like Bowie doing the vox! A beautiful, mysterious track that reminds me a bit of the songs from 'Cabaret'. It's completely wonderful.

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

Really, really nice

So lovely, I hope someone or sometwo take you up on it!
This is a great piece. When i find time i will try some guitar with it :D
a nice love song with some fun effects thrown in. I lot of character to this gives it a unique sound and personal touch. Great work by all involved.
It is a great mix on such fine song. Great vocal performance.
I am a fan of oriental sounding music, but the flute is so gorgeous in there. Love your melody. Delicious!
Fantastic mix.
Lovely stuff - warming.
thanks for the mix Steffen, great work mate!
And the ending is extra super double freakin' awesome! Great, cute tune.
Fantastic. Great lyrics. Strangely Beatlesque.

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.
