I wrote the music and lyrics of this song....Shannon Rae sings it beautifully. John Tabacco, the producer, provided stellar instrumentation and arrangement once again. Thanks peeps--y'all are indispensable to making my tunes come alive!

The Perfect Place I Am In

When love, romance and erotic sharing all come together--so to say--what could be more sublime? Bruce Springsteen somehow found his way into this song's second verse, with a Boss-like endorsement of love as a necessity, not some luxury!

Orange Twilight

OK, this guy's been dating girl who he's put on a pedestal....foolishly, only to cause himself heartache and frustration. He knows he can heal, and he knows humor will help. So, he wants to review his options with his local guru or counselor. Do you think the groove and energy of the song signal that everything will resolve and he'll be restored to well-being? 

OH, DOCTOR -- final version

DECEMBER'S CHILD:    Music and lyrics by Mark Brendan Hussey, copyright 2012 (from cd Melodien Road). Sung by Shannon Rae, arranged by Sid Cherry. A mother's deep gratitude, love and appreciation for her child emerges in a wave of powerful emotion, with Christmas and New Year's approaching.

"A Whole New World" sung by Regina Spano and Sid Cherry, as accompanist. 

A Whole New World- Long Island Cabaret

It was a day that will go down in radio history.....a weird, meandering conversation leads to the playing of a Billy Joel song backwards! The song was James (or Semaj, backwards). 

Clam Radio / Hussey interview 5.14

This song is a little crazy, so listen carefully. (Lyrics posted at facebook, my timeline....Mark Brendan Hussey). Sung soulfully, as always, by Mr. Ben Phillip. Arrangement and insturmentation by Mr. Sid Cherry. Thank you both for excellent work! The final version of this song will include some tweaks not yet made, but......this song will be one of 10 (possibly 11) on the new album SHAKESPEARE'S GHOST--which will be released the week of William Shakespeare's birthday:  APRIL 23rd. Enjoy!

The Lake Superior Inferiority Complex

I meant this song to be about someone / a couple getting "spring fever" in the middle of the winter. But since the weather in the northeast has been so wintry (even though spring has been here for a month, just about!) I decided it could also be about getting spring fever, even though it still feels like winter around here!
