This is a little folk/shanty tune that started as a quick little instrumental draft and…
This is an old song that I finally remixed. All intruments are synthesizers, so there were only three of us this time.
The song is based on a free-form poem by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland that he had sent to me to put it to music.

This song was written on guitar by Kari Eskola from Finland. He sent me his guitar track along with this fantastic vocal recording by Emmi Inkeri asking me to replace the guitar with a piano accompaniment.
I tried my best, knowing that I'm not…

Reg was at the weekly AA meeting at the old school and the group asked Reg if there was anything he would like to share....so Reg decided to share this ........
I've been told that drowning is a dreamy way to go.
THE ANGELS CRIED "NO!"
He lived high on the mountain top
He lived there with his love
He tumbled to the valley deep
When she gave him a shove
And when he hit the valley deep
It must…
Wow, is that a banjo? Great playing!
The music is actually cheerful, but the lyrics deal with a serious topic - and somehow it fits together and sounds just right.

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.

On this song you sound even more like Chapin. Great song btw - lead vocals are too loud, but awesome job nonetheless. The backing vocals are brilliant. The whole song is brilliant!

In October back in 2010, Holdempok and myself had a little jam session in his garage. After the cops had come and left....LOL, we settled down and Mike said, let's jam some blues.....
What came out was this! First take on a blues thingy .... just…
Nice one, James! I wish I was able to just grab a guitar and hum along. But I'm still trying to learn the basics on guitar (that Dm chord kills me - my hands are too big), and I cannot sing a single note.

Good form,good song very well done.

Cool song...
Ooo yeah, like this one. A lovely "tight but loose" feel.
Not convinced he sounds like David Essex - ok, a bit maybe - but he's got a fabulous voice. And his guitar playing's rather tasteful too. Nice one.
very cool, tight song. reminds me of nice cross between Adrian Belew and INXS.
Very nice..."another place and another time..."
Nice song
A good piece of work I can easily hear this asd a song behind a film or TV offering.
very nice piece
Love that change on "not to see"... So pretty. So sad.
I like it. It just bounces along effortlessly.
This is a beautiful song, and the piano and voice are wonderful.
Very pretty composition indeed Steffen with lovely vocal and lyrics from Paul. Bethan
Super vocal and I enjoyed the piano work as well. Lovely track! Bethan

Oh, look there, an unknown Beatles song! Are you a relative of John Lennon's? ;) Very well done! Regards, Steffen
Wonderful - would be perfect for a sad movie. Great playing. Regards, Steffen
I don't understand a word, but it sounds great! :)
Wow, is that a banjo? Great playing! The music is actually cheerful, but the lyrics deal with a serious topic - and somehow it fits together and sounds just right.
It took a while, but then it started to grab me. The lyric is great, as always. Unfortunately I don't understand every word in the slow part.
Sounds like you could have a great future in the film music genre. :) Regards, Steffen
Beautiful songwriting and a most emotional performance. Another favorite, no doubt.
Your songs sound radio-ready to me. Brit-pop/rock with a very modern sound. Regards, Steffen

You have everything a good songwriter needs: A guitar, a voice, and a bunch of great stories to tell. Regards, Steffen
Solid job, as always, James! I really dig your singing. Regards, Steffen
On this song you sound even more like Chapin. Great song btw - lead vocals are too loud, but awesome job nonetheless. The backing vocals are brilliant. The whole song is brilliant!
You sound a bit like Harry Chapin, did you know that? And just to make that clear: I love Harry Chapin! :) Regards, Steffen
A wonderful song, James, and I love the harmony vocals. Regards, Steffen
This could well be a Jimmy Buffet song. Have I said that before? ;) Regards, Steffen
Hey, nice to meet you here! :) I remember this song - you posted it at Songcrafters some time ago. Great blues voice! Regards, Steffen
Nice one, James! I wish I was able to just grab a guitar and hum along. But I'm still trying to learn the basics on guitar (that Dm chord kills me - my hands are too big), and I cannot sing a single note. Regards, Steffen
I love the piano! :)
Exactly what I like! Awesome vocals. :)
Yes, there is definitely a bit of blues in it. Nice song, Geir! Regards, Steffen
