you are like the rain that falls with the snow
or is it the other way around
i dont know
all i know is i love you
and cant get above you
it is driving with no place to go
the muscle and the bone i find
that keeps my heart in line
just…

you tell me what you want
you tell what you need
i cant give you nothing honey
but this pretty little seed
where has the sun gone
and is it gone forever
will it come back someday
should we just give it some time
i ask you what…
i am thinking about words tonight
they can be hard as nails
they-can be as shapeless as water
they can break your heart
they can hang like a chain
hold you up for years
cause you to think twice
take away your fears
you are falling in love…

start here at the airport
feels like im going blind
middle of the day in a dark bar
1000 miles away from peace of mind
im tring to remember
when i was a kid
did the sun set in my back yard
i think it did
what comes before and goes on…

Man this is incredible. The off kilter feeling of the music belies the deeply personal lyrics. Like being in a funhouse with a slanted floor, but someone is crying in the distance.

no this is brand new. actually a one take vocal. it does contain some of the same lirics as fertility dance. did you know that you can click on the about tap to get the lyrics?. nice to see you listening much appreciated

three striped gum
falls out of an old dresser drawer
fills my head with memories from before
causes me to close the door
i feel rotten to the core
three striped gum
falls out of my pocket in the rain
what would have happened if i played…

i saw the curtains changing color
i watched the sun room come alive
i have been sitting in this rocker
wondering when you might arrive
i am hoping for redemption
cant stand the way i feel
i know it is only passing through me
rivers flood…
Nice album Tim,hey where do I get one of those rockers with the roll down windows?Some interesting percussion sounds in this one.One of my favorites of the bunch.

it is always unexpected when a tune gains popularity. that song came together so quickly.it was truly inspired. that was a one take vocal. quit often i will harmonize with the main voice. but i knew soon after i recorded the first that that was enough
i really appreciate your input and support

Meathead syndrome,
No goals, no control.
The light, the time
It’s in my mind,
Oh fine,
Won’t be polite
Some lines
Have not progressed in Mind
Meathead syndrome,
No goals, no control,
Meathead syndrome,
No cure,
Not attuned to be here
Oh leave…
2009 Record Production Month Challenge offering. Very pleased with the collective results. This track was the first one completed for the RPM challenge this year.
This is the finished version of Iris Florentine. The acoustic version is still up, though...

young and lovely, with a wise patina
tapping her toe like Degas' ballerinas…
great bass sound. singing like a girl is a strenght not weakness. you dont really sound like a girl. i think what you are afraid of is being emotional .....like a girl. please that is so much better than the alternative. be happy

one hand clapping in the sycamore trees
while you're out mapping the coast
won't you come back, brother, oh please
I swear that I miss you the most
the Pacific…
like the organ tone. what do you use to record? are the guitars direct? what about the drums. i like that you write from experience. again very dynamic
For the RPMC 2009 album "Sabbatical"
From a news story last year about UFOs over Phoenix. They turned out to be some lighted balloons some guy had set aloft. So this tune about UFO paranoia.
i have a think for the south west. lived ther on and off. i have been to south mountain many times and watched the city. for such an ambient piece it is very well thought out if you know what i mean.
Comments on tim mcfate's stuff
smudged it with my foot, covered it up with leaves but came back to see what I believed. Love this line.
Great song Tim- I'm liking your stuff!!
great feel and love the vocal
You didn't hear back? Wow, sorry. That doesn't sound like me. :-( Loving your laid back style. Very cool music, Tim.
Cool song. Your tunes really remind me of the Stones.
Nice, very nice song!
Love the feel of this tune.
A heavy list for 28 days. Very enjoyable. I hope we see more from you in days to come.
thanks

sweet voice, like an angel tim
it is not nice to fool mother nature! tim
hey here you are on the hit list! alright tim
i think as a collection this holds up pretty well nice job tim
yes potatoes are very subsantial. i like the story. life on the run but not really. nice cat tim
i enjoy the starkness of the begining and enjoy the poetry tim
nice piano playing . cool build. i like the tone and emotion in your vocals. some hot licks
nice intro. sounds like 2006 was a tuff year for love
classic song about love. usually time to move on. people dont ever really change. some nice changes in the progression tim
well put together. very clever and well thought out melodies tim
i like the simple riff and how you then build around it. i think you should publish all your words under the "about "tab.
great bass sound. singing like a girl is a strenght not weakness. you dont really sound like a girl. i think what you are afraid of is being emotional .....like a girl. please that is so much better than the alternative. be happy tim
i like the quirky picking and as always the story is what draws me in. nice tim
like the organ tone. what do you use to record? are the guitars direct? what about the drums. i like that you write from experience. again very dynamic
a lot of folks just dont have a good handle on how to use their voice effectivly. you use yours in a great dinamic way
i keep coming back to your work. i like your style i guess tim
another nascar fan? nice playing. clever words
boy we could all use a little lesson in love if there was such a thing.
i have a think for the south west. lived ther on and off. i have been to south mountain many times and watched the city. for such an ambient piece it is very well thought out if you know what i mean.
february is messed up.
