Lovely folk song! Love the melody! Great vocals!

Love the vocals & ironic lyrics!! Really a fun track and super-enjoyable to listen to (contrary to the gist of the lyrics)!

such strong Vocals !!  I loved listening xx Thanks for sharing! Nat x

It had to be said and you really couldn't have said or sung it better Eric. Terrific composition and recording!

The definitive songwriters anthem, fantastic. 

Another great message, Eric. I'm sure most of us songwriters have had that experience.

Here is something a bit different. I was working one day and made this tune up in my head. I attempted to record it and hope you all enjoy it to some degree. I haven't played the flute in a long time, so I'm a bit rusty, but anyway...

Farewell to the Redcoats

In the Face of Fear

All the places I’m afraid to go are filled with people I don’t know
And if I go, I linger in the back
And watch them dance
from where they don’t see me,
but I can watch the rolling sea of bodies,
and in my mind I’m dancing.

(Chorus)
What’s the point of holding back?
The years are disappearing
And they’re not coming back.
There’s no time
To skirt that line
If we’ve only got one life to live
I might as well live mine.

Leave the job you stayed too long
join a band
write a song
sing it to a room full of people you don’t know.
Move away to Nanaimo, or maybe call New Brunswick home. 
Get a dog. Get a camper van.

Or try on the nomadic life.
Leave a husband. Take a wife.
Live with all your best friends in a house with a lanai.

(Repeat chorus X 2)

If we’ve only got one life, you know…
I probably should live my own.

What’s the point of holding back?
The years are disappearing
And they are not coming back.
They’re not coming back.

In the Face of Fear (Aug 2022)

Long View

Write me your letters
Tell me your fears
And the weather wherever you are.
Don’t try to tell me you miss me tonight
I know how many miles you are.

You’ve been begging me to call
But I know it’s not enough
Your demands are too far out of reach for me.

I know you’re looking for answers
I know that I let you down.

Try to let go of my memories of you
Try to let go of the heartache I feel
I know you’re looking for answers
I know that I let you down

You’ve been begging me to call you for days
You’ve been making demands, but I can’t get away.
I know it’s a circus for you
But for me, it’s my life.
For me, it’s the long view.

Kelsey's Lament

Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music & Mix by Glen Granthem
Poem that inspired Glen is listed below.

WOKE UP THIS MORNIN'	
THE SNOW WAS FALLIN'	
ICE WAS ON THE WINDOW	
CHILL FACTOR WAS TEN BELOW 	
	
I HAVE NOWHERE TO GO	
WHY WORRY ABOUT THE SNOW	
HAD A GOOD NIGHT'S REST	
I KNOW I'VE BEEN BLESSED 	
	
(CHORUS)	
AS I LOOK AT THE SNOW ON THE LAWN	
ANOTHER YEAR HAS COME AND GONE	
WE ALL HAVE SOME UPS AND DOWNS	
AS THE WORLD GOES ROUND 	
	
I HAVE A ROOF OVER MY HEAD	
AND A WARM COZY BED	
SHOES ON MY FEET	
AND PLENTY TO EAT	
	
LIFE IS VERY SHORT, MY FRIEND	
WE NEED TO ENJOY IT TO THE END	
GIVE SOMEONE A HELPIN' HAND	
YOU WILL BE BLESSED, IN THE END 	
	
(REPEAT CHORUS)

Lyrics

I'm just always looking for..
It's gonna be procrastination
Just another day’s dream with you
Sunrise away...

Someone else is blame on you
Something about that we made mistakes
Someone else says ''Let her go, when it's time to go forward''

Rising to my eyes
I can't be alone tonight.. ( I don't know what to do)

My eyes in always you
Broken heart so..( I can't tell you why)

Looking for your grace
I can’t be alone

My eyes in always you
Broken heart so..
Let me hold you now

Those sounds soared higher and far than anyone beyond the time
Those sounds soared higher and far than anyone beyond the world
Those sounds soared higher and far than anyone beyond the all

Separated ways, just when we are
It's beat and beat , just when we done
Tell me everything is (goes) alright 
Separated ways, just when we are

Sun Rise Away(collab.with Mike Fox)

STEREOINDIE - Come Way - STereoindie

A song written and recorded by Eric Feltham

Its about rejection in the music industry but don't take it too serious!

Lyrics:

I wrote a song about a man, who ate his lunch with dirty hands
And you said it sounded quite generic
Sung about a lady who, spared the  life of her babe and you
Said it was a bit slow and pathetic

And the drums sound cheap and my voice is much too deep
The notes, they all are wrong so just sing the same old song

The same old song, don’t try to be different everybody wants the same old song

I wrote about the days of old, and about a straight and narrow road
But you said it was too safe and lazy
So I sang a song about the time I had to watch a young man die
And you said I sounded kind of crazy

And the song is much  too long and the chords I play are wrong
You made it very clear that you just want to hear

The same old song I tried to be different but everybody wants the same old song

Same Old Song

My new song for this week. 😊🎹🎼🎵❤️

Thank you to my very lovely BF Sander for mastering yet again. Dedicating this to you...❤️❤️❤️🎶

CAUGHT IN A DAYDREAM

Les enfants pas sages
A l'âge des retournements
S'en vont dans la chambre des parents 
Le lit est plus grand
Ils se foutent de l'avenir
Et des peine à jouir
Ils tournent les pages
Font le ménage dans les ménages
Les enfants pas sages
A l'âge des détournements 
Ont fait des ravages
Au pays des indifférents
Le lion dans sa cage
N'a pas compris le message 
Il est fait comme un rat
Il ne s'en sortira pas

ASSIMILATION (remaster 2021)

First, I would like to say thank you for reading this. That means that you liked my songs enough to see what I’m about. That means a lot to me.
I’m a working man and a family man. The years digging ditches and breaking my back to put food on the table, has given me enough ammo to write a song or two. I like to write songs about real life with all of its struggles, beauty and grit…

In this digital age of perfect music I'm trying to leave the human imperfections in the tracks. Most parts are done straight through with no splices. A missed note or chord here or there, bit out of time...trying to keep it raw. Maybe I go too far sometimes?

I don't play games on SoundCloud. If I like your music ill like it and follow you. I wont unfollow you even if you don't follow me back!  If you do I'll be delighted though!
