I watched a drama/documentary about the attacks made on Sept 11 and was inspired by the stories of love and bravery of the passengers on board flight 93, as they talked to their loved ones on the phone, knowing that they would never see them again.

One Last Flight (Sept 11)

Wrote this after listening to friends talking about how they'd appreciated the fulfilment of walking freely in the countryside and all nature's wonders.

Walkin Out in the Country

How I recall the magical feeling of being in love for the first time

Head Over Heels

Song written for my wife about how the important things in life change with age and how along term love still blossoms

Recipe for Love

After stopping half way up the stairs one day, I stopped and thought "Was I going up" or "Coming down".   Memory gets ropey as you get older.

Rabbits in the Mind

Wrote this song about Agnes, my first girlfriend who led me a merry dance many years ago, until she broke my heart and kicked me out.

Fool's Gold

Trying to start a new relationship when you are set in your ways as a single, can be a challenge and you evaluate whether its worth the compromise you need to make to live with a new partner.

Living Together

How men fall over themselves to please their partner

Keeps Me a Running

Written for a friend who broke up from a long term relationship and who struggled to think about starting any more love partners.

Maybe the Next Time

Recall the sight of an old drunk sitting in a doorway cold and on his own on Xmas Eve. This was many years ago when I was a Social Security visiting Officer. Its so sad for anyone who cannot share a Xmas with friends and family.

Don't Be Alone at Xmas

Ti Amo (I love You), music composed and lead guitar by John Metcalf, lyrics 2nd guitar and rhythm by Alan McCulloch

Ti Amo 9 Mar 22

For the last 10 years, I've written and recorded songs that have been inspired by people I know, situations I've seen and never ending love for my wife. Maybe its the Covid thing and not being able to play my stuff to others, that has made me stop composing now, so I've posted my best (worst) 40 songs on Soundcloud to mark the end of my composition period. Hope you enjoy some of them....don't play more than 3 at a time....you'll get bored. Keep well all, best regards Alan
