A perfect country song, great vocal and harmonies, and I love that steel guitar.

Great song, writing, performance and especially those gorgeous harmonies & melody.

The lyrics are great! And I think that the pedal steel helped a lot to get the country feel.

Loving that pedal steel and Craig's rich voice carrying me through this beautiful story. You pack so much in this one. Lovely work guys

Awesome work of two of you! Everything is so beautiful!

Great lyrics and songwriting. I'm never so alone than when I'm with people. Very well articulated D&D.

'f I were you (instrumental)

A song about the northern lights and their mysterious appearance in unusual circumstances a long, long time ago...

I hear the cries of winter I cant stand to see the sight
Like waves they came crashing but now lie  still there in the night

Its far too late for many lying on once peaceful land
I wonder who if any fell directly by my hand

The morning brings a shiver as I lay behind the  wall
But I cant stay much longer as I hear the fallen call.

Shadows cast by the setting sun another days work is done
Close my eyes but I can't sleep through the long cold night

I feel the light burning in my eyes as I gaze at the distant sky
All around me I can see the northern lights.

Northern Lights

Listen w Headphones!

Making music works in strange ways sometimes. After I made this, the next day
I listened to it and it sounded totally different. I guess that's what you get
when you are " in the zone " and the next day you aren't ... lol.

Just wanted to share for some input.
Totally love all these songs! 

One of the many remixes I made with Mountain Songs tracks.
This is going to be part of the big collab OBC.

What Does It Mean? feat Clay & Rocky Mountain

I don’t believe in luck but I do feel very privileged to have two angels looking after me. My wife Jo and my daughter Charlotte have saved my life on three occasions keeping me alive until the ambulance arrived. I have been told that without their interventions I would not have survived.

Both have chosen not to believe in any God or indeed any outside power that can change our lives.  There may be many of you who disagree but these are the choices we make - each of us believes what we feel is best for us.  If a belief in a higher being helps give anyone’s life more meaning and guides them through each day, we have no argument with that at all.   

I think of Jo and Charlotte as my Atheist Angels.  The care they have given me during these close-to-death experiences shows what beautiful souls they are, always there for me at the time of greatest need.   

On every occasion, there were times when I truly thought that I was drawing my last breath, my existence disappearing as they fought to save me and all I could think of at the time was that, barring my brother Gal, all of my closest male antecedents died when they were just 63.  I was the same age during these episodes and I really didn’t want my name added to the sequence.  My Atheist Angels made sure that it wasn't.

Now I am 67, a proud grandfather, still around to enjoy the experience of watching my family thrive and grow.  There is another grandchild on the way later on this year and the more time I can spend with the love of my life Jo, the better and although my illness is not exactly how I planned things, I still try to enjoy every extra moment.

The continuation of ‘Cripple Club’ with Gal and Hans has been another unexpected bonus and we plan to keep going as long as we can. Here’s to the next song - I do hope you enjoy this one.   (Terry Reeves)

The whisper of a distance voice
Two angels arriving single choice
Keep breathing slow not too much
Your not leaving just stay in touch 

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes I’m floating floating away

A feeling of desperate final breath
Lonely moment no time to caress 
Fighting every 63rd dying thought
Surviving each gulp of air caught 

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes I’m floating floating away

Has time arrived to lay down still
Not accepted by two who really feel
More than one chance to live again
The Angels alongside helping pain

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes l’m floating floating away

Fight to avoid final thought of death
A fading light continues to suggest
Only time decides what, when and how
My Atheist Angels this time will not allow

I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating, I’m floating
I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating, I’m floating 
I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating,
Floating to stay……………………..cont

MY ATHEIST ANGELS - CRIPPLE CLUB

So this was going to be a nineties throwback petshop boys style piece. I could never get it right, it's such a nihilistic piece. This is a very rough version, two takes on the piano, and a few takes on the vocal.

Let’s go, just you and I, 
while the world still dreams below the starry sky
Down the lonely street into an empty town 
From our mindless sleep on to Hallowed ground

I always thought there would be time
but i watched it slip away before my eyes
Yet we had time for our goodbyes
Looking out, at the edge of the demise

Without you here, what would I be?
Within your arms, you comfort me
You keep me close, 
you set me free!

It doesn’t end with a whimper or a bang, 
We just slowly fade to black from where we came
It doesn’t end in flood or fire,
It all just simply falls to our desire

will there ever be another?

A Love Song From The End Of The World

Spring time (Guitar solo)

DO I HAVE THE WORDS
AS A MAGIC POTION
TO TRY AND HEAL THE WORLD
WHAT A SILLY QUESTION
ME I
FEED THE BIRDS
PROVIDE THEM WITH SEEDS
ON THE GROUND
OR IN THE REEDS
I DO
I DO

DREAMING MIGHT BE HEARD
AS THE ONE SOLUTION
BUT FEEDING THE BIRDS
IS ANOTHER OPTION
YOU TRY
THEN YOU TELL YOUR FRIENDS AROUND
IN THE MEANTIME IT’S MY ROUND
HMM 
HMM

FEED THE BIRDS MAN
FEED THE BIRDS
AND ALL YOUR PROBLEMS WILL BE SOLVED
HEAL THE WORLD LOVE
BEND THE CURVE
FEED AN  EAGLE OR A DOVE


PICK UP ANY TREE
ADORN IT WITH A FEEDER
AND SOON YOU WILL SEE
BIRDIES OF A FEATHER
DROP BY
IN THE SUN OR IN THE SNOW
AND THAT’S ALL  YOU HAVE TO KNOW
BY NOW

FEED THE BIRDS MAN
FEED THE BIRDS
AND ALL YOUR PROBLEMS WILL BE SOLVED
HEAL THE WORLD LOVE
BEND THE CURVE
FEED THE ANGELS FROM ABOVE

FEED THE BIRDS (Lyrics)

~~~ Be it happy or be it sad, the best melodies are about Love. ~~~

Victoria Babette

Sometimes being alone is less lonely than being with other people. This song reveals that feeling. This guy has a night of celebration with a woman, including all the prerequisite elements of eating, dining and intimacy, but in the end it’s an empty liaison where he once again reaches too eagerly for the elusive meaningful, fulfilling relationship, only to come up hungover and empty. There is sarcasm in his comparisons to it being a “paradise amour”. The song features the wonderful pedal steel playing of Dakota Holden, which gives a neat country spin to what is a bit of a hybrid between urban folk and country blues. Confetti is a fun and colorful thing, till you wake up late for work with it lining the inside of your shoes.

Lyrics: Confetti In My Shoe

Whisky in a bottle
Confetti on the floor
She sure ain’t no model
Guess I’ll have another pour 

Cheesecake in the kitchen
Crumbs upon her lips
Time to test the tension
My hand falls to her hips

It’s just the bourbon talking
But she thinks it’s really me
As my fingers do the walking
It’s classified and free
And through the bedroom door we fall
And land upon the shore
The eyes roll back to see it all
This paradise amour

Like the rattling of pots and pans
Rolling in her arms
And passing out at 3AM
To sleep through my alarm

The sunlight stabs the curtains
The cold hangs heavy hard
The morning brings no flirtin’
And she didn’t leave her card

I wish that I smoked cigarettes
I wish I had a clue
How twisted being lonely gets
Confetti in my shoe
And through the bedroom door we fell
And landed on the shore
The sun sets on the beach of Hell
This paradise amour

Release date: June 26, 2023


Josephine: 
 There's rain on my window, but I'm thinking of you
 Tears on my pillow, but I will come through  
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  and every single step I take, I'll take for you  
Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love  .

Now there's a storm on my radar, but I can still fly  
 But you are the reason for the blue in my sky   
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  and every single step I take, 
I'll take for you
My Josephine, I'll send you all my love,   
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love

 Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  
and every single step I take, I'll take for you
My Josephine, I'll send you all my love,   
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love
 When I'm far away, oh so far away, I'll send you all my love  
 Joseph-ine, I'll send you all my love,               
 Joseph-ine, I'll send you all my love ...

I'am Crazy

This is the story of Junior, a hard drinking young man without a plan, following the lead of his lush of a father. Junior fancied himself a bit of a millennial cowboy and rode off quickly into the sunset, proverbial spurs a-flashing...

Lyrics from myself and David Graham (mctownmusic)
Music is an old track from Gary Carter
--------------
Must of Been Luck
JD/DG/GC 2018
She grew up down in Texas in a little one horse town
Her daddy was a cowboy Never did come back around

Her momma didn't trust her So she drove off by herself
I saw her on the side of the road An I asked if I could help

(pre chorus)
She climbed up on my Harley We rode off into the wind
For years and years we were lovers Now we can’t even be friends

Chorus
We needed something more But I was never sure what of
I thought it was love It must of been luck
Must of been luck....Must of been luck

(music only then verse)
I loved being with her under that big Texas sky
One day my luck run out an she…told me goodbye

I climbed up on my Harley I rode off into the wind
For years and years we were lovers Now we can’t even be friends

We needed something more But I was never sure what of
I thought it was love ….It must of been luck (short)

bridge
I was lucky to learn from her   what it means to be free

I was lucky to be the man …that she  ..Use to need

I climbed up on my Harley I rode off into the wind
For years and years we were lovers Now we can’t even be friends

We needed something more But I was never sure what of
I thought it was love It must of been luck
Must of been luck....Must of been luck

Must of been luck....Must of been luck

Must of Been Luck

I wrote this song to describe a man that recalls love in the form of his nightly visions. The images come back to him in quiet moments much like photos hung on a wall that line a hallway in your home. The photos are of "her", the hall is his heart, and he takes that walk late at night when his inner most thoughts overcome his dreams, down the hallway with his memory wall. I want to thank Nat Daniels for her continued collaborations, which on this tune is her beautiful piano playing.
