Wonderfully produced song! Awesome sounds and arrangement!

Hello everyone, 
Sometimes things happen in life that we never expected. 
When David Dunham asked me if I would orchestrate and sing his song “Faithful and True,” Of all people, I couldn't understand why he was asking me. I was surprised – and deeply honored. He wrote this song many years ago.

This song tells a story that probably affects us all in one way or another: the question of whether love will endure when life challenges us. It speaks of longing, of the inner struggle between desire and responsibility - and of the strength to remain faithful despite everything.

I delved into this song and tried to design it musically so that its message reaches exactly where it belongs - directly into the heart. “Faithful and True” is not a typical love song, but rather a reflection on love in all its facets: beautiful, painful, deep...

"Faithful And True" (written by David Dunham)

I recall the day I said "I do",
I never thought that I could love anyone
Like I love you,
But of late I'm really not so sure
That the promises we made can hold
Us together as we both grow older
With each day.
Is it possible for love to endure?

But I've made up my mind.
I've made my choice,
This feeling will pass but never the voice,
That tells me I must remain,
Faithful and true.

It doesn't stop the pain of admitting what can never be,
But if love has any meaning it is found in trust,
And not in what we feel.

Instrumental

It doesn't stop the pain of admitting what can never be,
But if love has any meaning it is found in trust,
And not in what we feel.

There's a sadness as I say farewell
To a love that promised more than I could ever tell,
Or at least that is the way it seemed
To a man who found himself in love
With another 'till he counted the cost of fantasy.
It was more than he ever dreamed.

But I've made up my mind.
I've made my choice,
This feeling will pass but never the voice,
That tells me I must remain,
Faithful and true.

Repentance

Sometimes things get a little hectic and i have to get away so i grab a quiet corner and my guitar and sit there and slip away from Time into my own Space. I suppose you could say, " When i need to find myself, I loose myself.

Time & Space

Dedicated to my  Friend Carl of The Beautiful Dark here on soundcloud. We were discussing old tracks and he said he has a man drawer full of old demos. I found this one the other day..   I did manage to tweak it in garageband.

 life is good

Lyrics
copyright Bill Liggett 19..long time ago.. back when I was in a good mood..

come monday morning I’m on vacation
and if I don’t return your call
I left my phone in the kitchen
leave a message with you bitchin and complain
all day long

but rest assured now.. I’m feeling guilty
and it is with a heavy heart
that I recline with my ray bans
freeing up my hands to raise my glass
heres to you

I know the rent is due on tuesday
I can hear the landlord sayin
Where is that rat
she’ll have to wait and hold her horses
cause Im on vacation
on vacation..thats where I’m at

I must remember to send a postcard
oh how I wish that you were here
but now its time for my nap
and I forgot to give a crap about obligations
and pressing affairs

I know the rent is due on tuesday
I can hear the landlord sayin
Where is that rat
she’ll have to wait and hold her horses
cause Im on vacation
on vacation..thats where I’m at

Against The Wall

Back in the day, there was this local punk band called Headcheese. I was friends with the bass player Eric Weir. Anywho, never released or published but they had this song called Redneck Ballad. 
This is my take on the old Headcheese song.

Eric Weir : lyrics 
Mahan Mahan : vocals, instrumental track

Well my wife done left me for a donkey
Cuz his taliwacker's bigger than mine 
That mangi ass donkey's got the biggest 
Genitalia that i bet you ever could find
Well she took to the dknkey like fly to shit
But she killed the last sheep that i brung to our bed
That poor little lamb was my pride & joy
Didnt matter much that it was a boy

Dont need the women anyhow
I can open the pin and grab me a sow now

I got a beer belly, and Im sora smellly
My butt looks like a Santa Fe map
Now she's gone, i got nothing to bone
Guess Im gonna fuck her cat
Now that damn cat she's a cutie pie 
First time we did it she started to cry
Well i bet you think that I'm a pretty sick louse 
Cuz my sister moved out of the house

Don't need the women anyhow
I can open the door and fuck me a cow now...
