Another for the RPM Challenge ...... Reg got broke by three little words
Three little words
She said
I love you
but she lied to me
She told me I was hers
till the end
Those three little words made me lose my way…
Another for the RPM challenge ....this time Reg has a new love and it's going so well he's started to think a little too well and something is bound to go wrong with it ..........

Can’t see the sunset for the rain…
Regs mate Charlie is going through a bad time but he knows the good times are just around the corner....
The good times

Sitting there thinking about life as its passing him by
He knows…
A little background to Reg ....everyone he meets tells him just to stop and sort himself out ....is it really that easy

They tell me I’ve got to do it my self
Its just a touch of DiY
To pull my self…

When you feel you have to tell them Don't keep quiet..........
Keep Quiet
I think I’ve got it
I think I’m begining understand
That I am nothing but an ordinary man
I live
I dream
I try to keep quiet and work…

sometimes Reg realises what he truly wants but most of the time he's oblivious ...
All i want is Honest Love
The tangled web is woven with care
The spider doesn’t want you to know its there
It wants to catch you by surpise…

And now He knows.......
And now i know
Long before I knew there was something smoldering anyway
Something you said was real but it was meant as a throw away
decayed inside my mind like a clue
Like a clue of foul play

An idea of a song came to me while taking the dogs for a walk, everyone has a sad song ......
That sad song
Sometimes life is just a walk in the park
other times it takes a turn and gets real dark
Thats when the black dog…
Reg can be a callous bastard sometimes ......
What you don't know ain't gonna hurt you
Now you know I’m not gonna tell you honestly
About the dreams in my life that never came true
The love of my life that cut me in two
About the…
Reg had some terrible news that would break any man ......
How it rains down on me
In the early morning of the 14th April
Two days before the rain
Took the smile from my face to turn it to pain
Taking my smile from my face…
Reg actually woke up feeling positive this morning. I believe it was due to his sober evening and being in bed by 10 pm . Its a new him for 2026 or is it? let hope so .....Happy New year all x
Today is a beginning
Today is…
I'm sure you know the feeling .........
That feeling of feeling flat
Its the day after Christmas
That feeling of feeling flat
Nothing to be excited for or needing
All the fun has been had
Theres nothing more to come…
I always get that feeling the day after my birthday. I don't care much about my birthday but, come February 1st, I feel that empty, flat, hopeless feeling. So, yeah.
Its Christmas Day and the family are finally together even though it's only for the day .....
It's Christmas Day
Christmas Day its finally here
Its been too long a journey now to get us all to appear
We’ve been spread out…

One thing I've missed about UK in the eighties, when all the popular groups would do a Chrissy-tune!
Reg has finally started to look at what the problems were in his broken relationship's and come to the realisation its him ........
I should have staid and played by the rules
Sometimes I know I’m an idiot
I know full well…
The clue is in the title Reg woke up feeling a little disgruntled with the world ....
Screwed up & wary
You say tell me your secrets
but all you’ll hear are my lies
The compromised childhood
remember…

Music written and performed by Mike Smith, also known as Dragonsong.
When Mike first asked me to read this poem, he believed it was written around the time of the Spanish Flu...but, our sources say no. It was most likely written by Kitty O…
I wrote this one in response to a song writing challenge from the Minnesota Association of Songwriters. The title had to be Mississippi Moon and it had to have a I V VI I II chord progression somewhere in the song. Over 20 writers have signed…
This is the last song on The edge of Winter but it is not finished there is another part yet to be written ...
Winter's tale of woe : Part 1 - The end of winter. Part 2 - The last snowstorm
This is an oldie. Recorded in 2005. It was the first recording I finished on a DAW, but I'd played it a lot in the last band I was in (around the turn of the century). I think it was written in the mid 90s. It's about one of the casualties of…
This is a true story. Im pretty sure this guy still has a taxi job on the night shift in Denver.
Too long since I’ve posted a song. Most importantly, I got Norm to dust off the skins and record some percussion for me. Good to hear Norm and…

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…
Do you ever have an idea / song that you just need to get out of you and recorded, even though it's so rough that you'll want to re-do it over and over again? This is one of those for me....
Drive Until The Signal Dies

Your Silence…

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

OK, let's delve once more into the magical shoebox of unused songs...
I've already recorded several that were written in 1994 (Sleeping with the Ghost, Elizabeth's Room, With Mum Again, If You Knew, A Hundred and…
Well you’ve proved to yourself your not “crap” reminds me of something my father would say to me time and time again “ don’t touch that you’ll break it “ and I normally did. Pleased you saved this one from the shoe box an excellent lyric love it pie pod bound along with all your others 😁

I wrote this song about my father and Dementia/Alzheimer's over a year and a half ago. We just finished the song and video, kind of surreal because Dad is in a nursing…
My mother recently died of Alzheimer’s after a long illness and I can say you’ve certainly captured the disease with this track, the desperate confusion, the fear and loss an excellent bit of work . My heart goes out to you or anyone who has to deal with Dementia it’s a horror You grieve while the loved one is still alive.
After the lockdown, I felt Out of the Darkness. It's still a long way to go but at least I can breath fresh air and walk immersed in nature once again.

I remembered an incredible night at the seaside some years ago. The moon over the water and the waves, the stars in the sky and the wind with a natural sense of movement. I hope I was able to transfer those sensations into the song.

This one is really nice. That crying harp is a perfect accompaniment.
This is the perfect range for your vocal!
Best wishes for Charlie....great tune.
Great vocal...sounding a bit loose. It's nice.
Cool, keep rolling!
Nice job brother forgot I had a account here
Nice playing and recording!
Great stuff -- I particularly appreciate the lyrics and the guitar solo!
Nice….very nice. Someday I’ll ask you to explain how one might pronounce TwoRegs.
The trippy vocal effect is an interesting choice, I like it, it surprised me. Great lyrics.
Cool
Another nicely worded song…You’ve nailed it.
Beautiful song......hoping for the best for Reg.
Today is a great day to feel some positivity for the future. Your guitar and keys sound as brilliant as your vocals on this one. Great recording too.
I always get that feeling the day after my birthday. I don't care much about my birthday but, come February 1st, I feel that empty, flat, hopeless feeling. So, yeah.
Nice job ! Another Christmas tune on the site. :-)
Within hours of being posted, and here I am to dig your music....super song! One thing I've missed about UK in the eighties, when all the popular groups would do a Chrissy-tune!

"Nothing good in life is free"? Balderdash. I just listened to this for free, ya gloomy goose.
You've been knocking these out of the park. Again beautiful sound, but more so beautifully intense lyrics that somehow hit close to home again.
