Geas sent me this tune for National talk like a pirate a day so we took it down the cellar and luckily Robert Newton was down there so we got him up on the stage and got him to do this little number......Hoping Yee enjoy eye arrh…
I'm digging the peaks & valleys in this one, it really has an epic feel for a four minute piece... I like the ending, but I must admit I half expected you to add "...or did they?" at the last second!
Spare a thought for those with nothing this Christmas..... Homeless with no family.........and no one to help.......
CHRISTMAS ALONE (Lyrics)
Nobody is listening no body knocking on my door
nobody is near me nobody wants me
i’m nobody’s…
Down the cellar this evening we were having a bit of fun with this old Elvis Classic ....he didn't seem to mind.....but Dr Nick had been in earlier.........with the one armed Banjo band backing...
Now this is different throughly enjoyed doing it....was watching Willie Wonka with the kids and thought!!!!!!! i could make a proper Willie Wonka of that one and so i have with a little help from Ottis down in the cellar hope you enjoy the efforts…
Well narrated and some exceptional lines in there.
The music - perfect!
Coo, I was expecting it all to go wrong, but no, A HAPPY ENDING, yay!!!
Merry Christmas Reg!

Gone to Yesterday (Lyrics)
Once upon a time I lived in a life i thought was nothing but a dream
The happily ever after was just part…
**Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2025**
Song number 01
Written Saturday-Sunday 1st-2nd February 2025
Written 1st-2nd Feb
Demo recorded 2nd Feb
****
I wasn't gonna do this FAWM thing this year, but they sent me an email...
And then I wrote…
Song 9# for my 2025 RPM Challenge. The finishing line is near. I wrote this song last night - it emerged out of the burning heart ache I've experienced since the death of my beloved 13 year old dog Maxwell (died last May) - my love for him is…
Sometimes writing a song is the very best and only thing you can do....
Cold Winter Moon
Oh cold winter moon
And the wind that blows
Bring me a change
For my weary soul
Take away this longing
That fills my heart
Something is over…
My words, ai demo.
Your clothes are in the wardrobe
And your books are on the shelf
I wander from room to room
Talking quietly to myself
How can I see my future
When you’re standing in the way?
Every morning I wake up, I’m in
Tomorrow…
Guitars/Mandolin: Doug Sparling
Composer: Traditional
Recorded: 2005
A couple of nice reels played on guitar, the first is The Cup of Tea, can't remember the name of the second one. Unfortunately my midi flute scratch track got added in the mix…
(Song 4)
Hair net tossed on the table
Name tag still pinned to my shirt
Work boots wait on the front step
but they might walk out on me too
I've got no one left to care for
No one left to hear my prayer
Talking to the kitchen window…
this is all chris. except i went the route of playing synthesized drums, which was a gas. at one time i couldn't stand the sound of them. but i knew they would fit his song. i think this is a very interesting journey.
A strange beast that began back in 2021 as a chord progression that didn't go anywhere. I finally knuckled down and finished it. It has a somewhat awkward transition from verse to chorus, but when I tried shifting either to accommodate the other…
I come up to the surface
And take a breath on my return
Crystal waters on the surface
Light gets swallowed down below
And it’s the same way with my feelings
About you they stay much the same
Twenty years wrapped up in paper
Tied it up…
Another one for Steve, our amazing bass player….a BIG Planet of the Apes fan.
I never followed Those movies, but he assures me that he’s kept within the bounds of the narrative.

Laid back and lovely…
That bass is shaking the car down and dirty
Another year older waiting for your FAWN 26 submission
Poor old Maxwell at least he was loved
I’m liking the piano sounds like a real one rather than midi but I’m probably wrong
Got a great 80’s vibe going with that synth
The UK stops on 2 inches of snow good luck with the next 3 months were hoping not to drown in all this rain
A beautiful song beautifully sung
