cool - wonderful cinematic and detailed sound!

What a great classic sound. Loved every second of this. Thanks for sharing Adam, this will stay with me all day, so memorable.

I had to come back for another fix, this is so special. You've packed so much in under 3 minutes and so perfectly crafted too. We are so lucky on SC. Cheers Adam!

Super track Adam. So absolutely tasteful and insightful to the spirit of the time. Magically composed and produced. Simple yet, comfortably exact!

Sign me up for the trip! Quality work Adam.

I have a place, a special place
down by the river, on a sunny bend

That is where I saw her, that day that we met
A bounce in her walk, so light on her step

I have a place, a special place
down by the river, on a sunny bend

Here comes my girl
Oh, she looks so cool i can hardly wait
Oh ya, i can hardly wait

I can hardly wait
Oh ya, i can hardly wait

I have a place, a special place
Down by the river, on a sunny bend

That is where I saw her, that day that we met
A bounce in her walk, so light on her step

Here comes my girl
Oh, she looks so cool i can hardly wait
Oh ya, i can hardly wait

Light Step

Struggling to extricate yourself from some awful mess of life and circumstance (relationship?)Free? Feels like it, sometimes, until freedom starts to feel an awful lot like falling down. Still, whatever we choose, the choice to be free, to soar, to coast, or to fall down, is in your hands.

* I always loved Tom Petty and his Free Fallin'. Maybe that was in the back swirling around.?

                                                Free, Falling Down

I’m free… falling down…I’m free…falling down
Never felt this good to be living my life…
Never felt this way,  good to be giving it up…
Left it all behind, I’m going on my own…
I’m spreading my wings

As autumn falls and the leaves do curl
Throw this drowning man… a heavy stone…
A heavy stone
Ah summoning the North winds, a hard brick in soft felt
The world has lungs…that are fit to burst
The world is a mighty fist…in your hands
The world is a fragile fist …in your hands…in your hands!

In your hands… Whoa! 
(Im free…falling down)
It’s in your hands … Whoa!
Never felt this good to be living my life…
Never felt this way, good to be giving this up…
Left it all behind, I’m going on my own…
I’m spreading my wings.

Well who made the world mad?
Was it us? That twisted the five fingers of continents?
Fingers of continents
Hold the world for what it’s worth, 
Don’t let your spoon stir the pot…in reverse

In your hands…In your hands   (I’m free)
It’s in your hands…

LONG TIME

Sailing away on the crest of a wave
Point our bows to the rising sun
The diamond sea sings so softly to me
It says...

Day after day as our world fades away
We set a course for the brightest star
We fall fast asleep and dream crystalline dreams
’Til we arrive

When we arrive
When we arrive
We’ll build a city that burns like a fire

When we arrive
If we survive
Our children are greeted
By the Garden of Eden
They’ll never go hungry again
Oh what a feast we’ll have then
They’ll never go hungry again

A New World (Pilgrim Song)

This song is actually one long outro.... at least that's how it began.

So I said
Give me your sorrow
It is a beauty
That I want
And though it makes you fail
And asks for everything
I'll only tend it lovingly

oooh oooh ooooh 
oooh oooh ooooh

And with your smile
A tender twilight dawn
Step in the past
With hands to make
As we're returning
Give me your sorrow
There is a beuuty I will make

oooh oooh oooh 
oooh oooh oooh

So I said Give me your sorrow
I'll only tend it lovingly
As we're returning
Give me your sorrow
There is a beauty I will make.

Every Conversation in June

Give Me Your Sorrow

Lyrics:

Surrounded by chaos, 
Heroic demise
It’s time – time to rise
Our names will live forever,
Forever out of time
Live for today
Join the final fight

Rise, samurai!
Blades slash through lies
As the bullets fly
Ignite the city of night 
This is our fight
There’s victory in death
If you know when to die

We walk the razor’s edge
With death by our side
We will never be alone
Forever out of time

Rise, samurai!
Tempered by our trials
With steel in our spine
Never bow to fear
Our names will never die
Ignite the city of night,
Join the final fight!

Rise, Samurai! (Hobocop & Cosmic Keanu)VIDEO AVAILABLE🎥

Situationism

Psycho Killer (Talking Heads cover)

So many interpolations or inspirations in this 😎 had a lot of fun doing it ….

Soul Kissed angelic
Always missed, I’m so pathetic 
Memory inducing to the touch
And born to do it 
Don’t rush, got the love, it’s enough 
You help me see the things ….

Repairing like a medic,
Making out I’m psychedelic, 
Foot on the clutch, it’s too much not 
Not born to run it,
Don’t push, it’s a touch, we’re enough 
You help me see the things that I can’t see 

You’ve been undefeated 
My lines were confiscated 
Hitting the highs, record times, 
We can’t be slated 
It’s a rush, at push it’s on us 
You help me see the things…
Turned my fate upside down
If my dad could see he’d be proud 
Your a riot, I’m so loud, I’m so loud
It’s on us, what a rush, it’s enough 
You help me see the things that I can’t see 

Blindsided by life’s lies
Lucky is as lucky does 
That hasn’t been the case for many of us 
When I was in a hole, you took on the starring role 
Led me away, said I could stay, for a day so I stayed anyway 
You help me see the things that I can’t see

All Things I Cant See

Just The Way I Like It.

Baby of the 80s, teen of the 90s, obsessed with the 60s and 70s; an FM wannabe in a Youtube world. I guess I just wasn't made for these times. I like songwriting in the Gershwin, Tin Pan Alley, Lennon/McCartney tradition. I prefer records to singles. I prefer three minutes to ten.

According to my mama, I was whistling before I learned to talk. I played organ in the Memphis garage rock scene between 2000 and 2016. I've done a lot of studio work, adding keys to records by songwriters that I really admire.

I'm now focused on recording my own songs. I have a minimal home recording set up with a laptop, microphones, cheap guitars, drums, piano, and a grab bag of other toys. All my lyrics rhyme with the truth, or at least I think they do. 

Life is short and there are more good songs then there are raindrops. Which is to say: thank you very much for lending me your ears.

Rock 'n' roll is dead, long live rock 'n' roll.
