Recorded on March 22nd, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

All I want is to see you when you're all alone
I just want to catch you if I can
I just want to be there when the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates, I can't escape
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
I just want to tell you nothing you don't want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Oh, why don't you just take me
Where I've never been before
I know you want to hear me, catch my breath
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
I just want to be there
When we're caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh, not cry
I just wanna feel you
When the night puts on its cloak
I'm lost for words, don't tell me
'Cause all I can say
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
Oh, why don't you just take me
Where I've never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end
All I can say, I love you 'til the end
I love you 'til the end

Recorded on April 16th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

I woke up in an alley by my work
Laying with my sins, my hair in the dirt
I met a guy named Jack, he was my friend
But Jim took me down in the end
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I'm tied up with a job I really hate
Keep a smile, hold your black tray straight
Get fired for dropping a glass of wine
Screw 'em all, I'm running out of time
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I'm dancing with the devil by my grave
Telling him decisions that I've made
I feel my heart beat deep within my chest
I'm back into the world I almost left
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on
I keep ticking on

I Keep Ticking On (The Harmeleighs cover)

A cover of Warren Zevon's 'Keep Me In Your Heart' by Scott Whitten.
Recorded on April 26th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

Shadows are fallin' and I'm runnin' out of breath
Keep me in your heart for a while
If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less
Keep me in your heart for a while
When you get up in the mornin' and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for a while
There's a train leavin' nightly called "When All is Said and Done"
Keep me in your heart for a while
Keep me in your heart for a while
Keep me in your heart for a while
Sometimes when you're doin' simple things around the house
Maybe you'll think of me and smile
You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on your blouse
Keep me in your heart for a while
Hold me in your thoughts
Take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
When the winter comes
Keep the fires lit
And I will be right next to you
Engine driver's headed north up to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for a while
These wheels keep turnin' but they're runnin' out of steam
Keep me in your heart for a while
Keep me in your heart for a while
Keep me in your heart for a while
Keep me in your heart for a while

Keep Me In Your Heart (Warren Zevon cover)

A cover of Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit's 'If We Were Vampires' by Scott Whitten.
Recorded on May 13th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

It's not the long flowing dress that you're in
Or the light coming off of your skin
The fragile heart you protected for so long
Or the mercy in your sense of right and wrong

It's not your hands, searching slow in the dark
Or your nails leaving love's watermark
It's not the way you talk me off the roof
Your questions like directions to the truth

It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
But one day I'll be gone or one day you'll be gone

If we were vampires and death was a joke
We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke
And laugh at all the lovers and their plans
I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand

Maybe time running out is a gift
I'll work hard 'til the end of my shift
And give you every second I can find
And hope it isn't me who's left behind

It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
But one day I'll be gone or one day you'll be gone

It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
But one day I'll be gone or one day you'll be gone

For a while there, it was rough
But lately, I′ve been doin' better
Than the last four cold Decembers
I recall
And I see my family every month
I found a girl my parents love
She′ll come and stay the night
And I think I might have it all
And I thank God every day
For the girl He sent my way
But I know the things He gives me
He can take away
And I hold you every night
And that's a feelin' I wanna get used to
But there′s no man as terrified
As the man who stands to lose you

Oh, I hope I don′t lose you

Mm
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I′ve got
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I′ve got
hook
Oh
Ooh
Please don't take

I found my mind, I′m feelin' sane
It's been a while, but I′m findin′ my faith
If everything's good and it′s great
Why do I sit and wait 'til it′s gone?

Oh, I'll tell ya, I know I′ve got enough
I've got peace and I've got love
But I′m up at night thinkin′
I just might lose it all

Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I′ve got

Ooh

Beautiful Things (Benson Boone cover)

A cover of Billy Joel's 'Vienna' by Scott Whitten.
Recorded on June 11th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

Slow down, you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart
Tell me why are you still so afraid? Mm
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You'd better cool it off before you burn it out
You've got so much to do
And only so many hours in a day, hey

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through, ooh
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you're doing fine
You can't be everything you wanna be before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight, tonight
Too bad, but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself, that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right
You're right

You've got your passion, you've got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true, ooh
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you crazy child
And take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's alright, you can afford to lose a day or two, ooh
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

And you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you could just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through, ooh
Why don't you realize Vienna waits for you?
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?

Recorded on June 24th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin'
And you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'
The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you?

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you

Cant Help Falling in Love (Elvis Presley cover)

A cover of The Lumineers' 'Cleopatra' by Scott Whitten.
Recorded on July 28th, 2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress
With my father in a casket, I had no plans, yeah

And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet
And it hardened like my heart did when you left town
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant
Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around

But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time

While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me
Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true
So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me
From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you

But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time

And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce
But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I'll play my part

I was Cleopatra, I was taller than the rafters
But that's all in the past love, gone with the wind
Now a nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guestroom
It's a bed and a bathroom
And a place for the end

I won't be late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time

Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name
Open up a beer
And you say, "Get over here
And play a video game"
I'm in his favorite sundress
Watchin' me get undressed
Take that body downtown
I say, "You the bestest"
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on
Go play your video game
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
And, baby, now you do
Singin' in the old bars
Swingin' with the old stars
Livin' for the fame
Kissin' in the blue dark
Playin' pool and wild darts
Video games
He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of
Watchin' all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul's
This is my idea of fun
Playin' video games
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
And, baby, now you do
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you wanna do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
And, baby, now you do

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If'n you don't know by now
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It'll never do somehow

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm a-traveling on
But don't think twice, it's all right

And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road

But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
But we never did too much talking anyway
But don't think twice, it's all right

So it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you never done before
And it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore

I'm a-thinking and a-wonderin' walking down the road
I once loved a woman, a child, I'm told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's all right

So long honey, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say, "Fare thee well"

I ain't a-saying you treated me unkind
You could've done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right

Don't Think Twice It's Alright (Bob Dylan cover)

A cover of S.G. Goodman's 'Snapping Turtle'.
Recorded on 8/8/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

When you're a farm kid in a small town
You drive before the legal age
And I won't forget that day
When I drove up on some low-down kids
They were all huddled around a poor snapping turtle
Taking turns with a stick
They were beating the hell out of it
So I asked if I could take a lick

When I raised my hand, I brought down the wrath of God himself
Beat those kids till they were crying out for help
I couldn't help myself
Then threw the turtle in the truck
Ooh, small town is whеre my mind gets stuck

Leann, thoughts go back again to Lеanna
Eighteen became a mother
Leann, thoughts go back again to Leanna
Already raised her little brother

I recall a train ride through the countryside
In the south of France
Young, poor, and weighing my circumstance
And where I couldn't play God

Leann once spent a summer in Paris - Paris, Tennessee
The only Paris Leann would ever meet
We talked about it all on a bleacher seat
When we were back in county school

Ooh, ooh

I grew up hard on bottom land
Where only crops should grow
Watched people reap what the demons sowed
And I take it with me everywhere

And I've been told I can come off hard
Hard as the world I've known
Walking around with my spirit broke
Surprised to see love every now and then

Told to pray for forgiveness, oh, and to pray for grace
Not after seeing Leanna's face
A life beat down like that snapping turtle day
God could have thought up a better way
To teach me just how small I am
To teach me the other side of luck

Ooh, small town is where my mind gets stuck
Ooh, small town is where my mind gets stuck
Ooh, small town is where my mind gets stuck
Ooh, ooh, small town is where my mind gets stuck
Ooh, ooh, small town is where my mind gets stuck

I've been drifting along
In the same stale shoes
Loose ends tying a noose
In the back of my mind

If you thought that you were making your way
To where the puzzles and pagans lay
I'll put it together
It's a strange invitation

When I wake up
Someone will sweep up my lazy bones
And we will
Rise in the cool of the evening

I remember the way that you smiled
When the gravity shackles were wild
And something is vacant
When I think it's all beginning

I've been drifting along
In the same stale shoes
Loose ends tying a noose
In the back of my mind

If you thought that you were making your way
To where the puzzles and pagans lay
I'll put it together
It's a strange invitation

Recorded on 8/17/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

"This song is about throwing off the weight and burdens of unnecessary struggle. It’s a take stock moment. A kind of report from the center of a clearing storm. It’s violent, but one knows it’s gonna leave one at a new beginning. Any way the wind blows. I shall roam. Every direction is suddenly available." – Glen Hansard

Great weight has lifted
Great weight is gone
Great waves of wonder
Are coming on
The clouds are parted
The sky is clear
The sun is grinning
From ear to ear
No rolling thunder
No gathering storms
We've been sitting in the dark for too long

A great weight has lifted
Great weight is gone

Great tongues have spoken
Hard lessons learned
The spell is broken
The tables have turned
Nobody's falling
Through the cracks
Nobody's breathing
All down my back
No fiery furnace
No tolling bells
No more wandering around the nine circles of hell

Great weight has lifted
Great weight is gone

Any way the wind blows
Any way the wind blows
Any way the wind blows now
I will roam

New moons are rising
Great towers fell
We're drawing water
Up from the well
The fields are blooming
The seeds are sown
The gods, alighting
Back on their thrones
And in their absence
Didn't we do well?
They decided they would leave us fend for ourselves

Great weight has lifted
Great weight is gone

The storms are broken
The coast is clear
The sands have shifted
Nobody's near
You had your chance, but
Your chance is blown
Tyrants go tumbling
It's just how it goes
Their mighty empire
Gone up in smoke
Well, fuck them if they can't take a joke

A great weight has lifted
Great weight is gone

Any way the wind blows
Any way the wind blows
Any way the wind blows now
Any way my love goes
Every way the wind blows
Any road I wanna go down
I will roam
I will roam
Over land, over sea, over foam

Go circle the wagons
Tell me, who can we trust?
We've been out on the margins
We've been left in the dust
We waited in silence
We saw what we saw
It's holy murder
In the name of the law
We ruminated
We watched them divide
Now every time I raise my head, I'm made to take a side

A great weight has lifted
Great weight is gone
Great weight is gone
Great weight is gone, gone, gone, gone
Great weight is gone, gone, gone, gone

I inject pure kryptonite into my brain
It improves my kung-fu and it eases the pain during
Acceleration when the pedal hits the floor
This thing burns nitroglycerin and powdered C4

And I will always love you

I drive a modified T-series Lola
It's kind of heavy but I like the feel
When I say Vietnam, it sounds just like Coca-Cola
I believe most anything, as long as it's not real

And I will always love you

I battle aliens from outer space
They got one eye right in the middle of their face
I grab my laser gun, I know my place
Somebody has to save the human race

And I will always love you

It seems hopeless but wouldn't you know?
They got a weakness and they let it show
They can't jump and they're a little bit slow
When I say world war two, I mean the video

And I
Help me, Elvis
I
Help me, Elvis
I
Come on now, Elvis
I can't help falling in love with you

Of all the money that e'er I had
I have spent it in good company
Oh and all the harm that e'er I've done
Alas, it was to none but me

And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be to you all

Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They would wish me one more day to stay

But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

So if I had enough money to spend
And leisure time to sit awhile
There is a fair maid in this town
That sorely has my heart beguiled

Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips
I own she has my heart enthralled

So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be to you all
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be to you all

Say we'll get married on a porch in Vegas
We can get hitched and have a couple of kids
And none of them will look at all like us
And our neighbors will all be a bit too much
And you'll live out in the desert with a man you never loved

Is this it?
What you want?
What you wanted?
Do you need love?
Am I enough for you?
In time you'll find I've got my baggage too

Say we'll get famous and we'll die with our names
In every paper, every news report is any consolation
To the people that you love and all the people that you hate
But will love you all the same, because you're beautiful

Say you didn't see it, that I saw right through you
Say you didn't mean it that I mean nothing to you
Like you said
Do you believe me?
That I'll be right for you
Say you love me like you used to

We were born splaying in the wreckage
Buried down on birds with stones
Bore my weight upon your shoulders
Water as warm as morning suns

I don't think quite like I used to
I got a bed to call my own
I see stars and painted lies
Broken glass upon your road

Now I'm driving home too soon
Say you love me like you used to

And we'll vacation first class
I'm breaking your fall
You're breaking my ass
You're working all day
Hating on all the bitches at work
You say you're ok
You're faking, fucked up
Drinking all day, you give me a cup
And I'll be damned if we can make it out of this alive, baby
I say I'll be damned if we can make it out of this alive

But is this what you want?
What you wanted?
Do you need love?
Am I enough for you?
In time you'll find I've got my baggage too

Oh, and say we'll get famous and we'll die with our names
In every paper, every news report is any consolation
To the people that you love and all the people that you hate
But we'll love you all the same, because you're beautiful
Say you didn't see it, that I saw right through you
Say you didn't mean it that I mean nothing to you

Like you said do you believe me?
That I'll be right for you
Say you love me like you used to
Say you love me like you used to

And we'll vacation first class
I'm breaking your fall
You're breaking my ass
You're working all day
Hating on all the bitches at work
You say you're ok

You're faking
Fucked up
Drinking all day, you give me a cup
And I'll be damned if we can make it out of this alive, baby
I say I'll be damned if we can make it out of this alive

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do, do-do
Do-do-do, do-do

All hand claps, you will clap
(Let me be the wallpaper that papers up your room)
I want to be every button you press
And all the baths that surround you

Yes, I'm gonna roll around you
Like a cat rolls around saw dusted patios (ooh)
I'm gonna kiss you
Like the sun browns you 

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Devour me 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 
Devour me 
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh 

If you really think that you can stomach me 

I want every other freckle 
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle 
Every other freckle, I want every other freckle 
I want every other freckle
Every other freckle, freckle

My cover of 'Closer Tonight' by Grant-Lee Phillips.
Recorded on 9/13/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

It brings out the nervousness in me
This talk of the future
And all of it moving at light speed
Too much to devour

Well, pray that we make it in one piece
But who are we fooling?
A fire that keeps a nation warm
Or it's undoing?

Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

And we are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger

And arrows that fly across the sea
Eyeing the hour
A magic that we don't dare repeat
The trick of unraveling

Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

And driverless cars on market street
Around every corner
But what is to stop us before
We turn on each other

Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger

We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
Closer than ever

We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger
We are closer tonight
Closer to Heaven

Closer Tonight (Grant-Lee Phillips cover)

My cover of 'The Safety Dance' by Men Without Hats.
Recorded on 9/22/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to
A place where they'll never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
We can dance

We can go where we want to
The night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat
From our hats to our feet
And surprise 'em with a victory cry
I say, we can act if we want to
If we don't, nobody will
And you can act real rude
And totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile

I say, we can dance, we can dance
Everything is out of control
We can dance, we can dance
We're doing it from pole to pole
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody's taking the chance

We can dance if we want to
We've got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it
Everything will work out right
I say, We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance
And if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine

I say, we can dance, we can dance
Everything is out of control
We can dance, we can dance
We're doing it from pole to pole
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance
Everybody's taking the chance

safety dance
safety dance
safety dance
safety dance
safety dance

The Safety Dance (Men Without Hats cover)

My cover of 'Slide Away' by Oasis.
Recorded on 9/25/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

Slide away and give it all you've got
My today fell in from the top
I dream of you and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now

Hold me down all the world's asleep
I need you now you've knocked me off my feet
I dream of you and we talk of growing old
But you said please don't

Slide in baby together we'll fly
I've tried praying but I don't know what you're saying to me

Now that you're mine
We'll find a way
Of chasing the sun
Let me be the one who shines with you
In the morning we don't know what to do

Two of a kind
We'll find a way
To do what we've done
Let me be the one who shines with you

And we can slide away
Slide away
Slide away
Away

Slide away, and give it all you've got
My today, fell in from the top
I dream of you and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now

Now that you're mine
We'll find a way
Of chasing the sun

Let me be the one who shines with you
In the morning we don't know what to do

We're two of a kind
We'll find a way
To do what we've done

Oh, let me be the one who shines with you
And we can slide away

Slide away
Slide away
Slide away
Slide away
Slide away
Slide away
Slide away

Slide Away (Oasis cover)

My cover of S.G. Goodman's 'Space and Time'.
Recorded on 9/28/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

I never wanna leave this world without saying I love you
Without saying what you mean to me
You know it makes me happy, oh, when we share this space and time
Want you to know you shaped this heart of mine

And I never wanna leave this world, oh, without saying I love you

Oh, and out in the woods, this picture is clear to me
I owe my life to even my enemies
The ones who have loved me, the ones who have tried
Their grips on my heart and their grips on my mind
The stranger I pass, my mama, brothers, friends and my father
They're god undercover
I'm telling you now in case I must go
Want you to know

I never wanna leave this world without saying I love you
Without saying what you mean to me
You know it makes me happy, oh, when we share this space and time
Want you to know you shaped this heart of mine

And I never wanna leave this world, oh, without saying I love you

I never wanna leave this world without saying I love you
Without saying what you mean to me
You know it makes me happy, oh, when we share this space and time
Want you to know you shaped this heart of mine

And I never wanna to leave this world, oh, without saying I love you

Space and Time (S.G. Goodman cover)

My cover of The Pogues' 'Dirty Old Town'.
Recorded on 10/03/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Clouds are drifting across the moon
Cats are prowling on their beat
Spring's a girl from the streets at night

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I heard a siren from the docks
Saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring on the smoky wind

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I'm gonna make me a good sharp axe
Shining steel tempered in the fire
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree

Dirty old town
Dirty old town

I met my love by the gas works wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall

Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Dirty old town

Dirty Old Town (The Pogues cover)

My cover of Courtney Barnett's 'Depreston'. 
Recorded on 10/09/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

You said we should look out further
I guess it wouldn't hurt us
We don't have to be around all these coffee shops

Now we've got that percolator
Never made a latte greater
I'm savin' 23 dollars a week

We drive to a house in Preston
We see police arresting
A man with his hand in a bag

How's that for first impressions
This place seems depressing
It's a California bungalow in a caul-de-sac

It's got a lovely garden
And a garage for two cars to park in
Or a lot of room for storage if you've just got one

And it's going pretty cheap, you say
Well, it's a deceased's estate
Aren't the pressed Metal ceilings great

Then I see the hand rail in the shower
A collection of those canisters for coffee, tea and flower
And a photo of a young man in a van in Vietnam

And I can't think of floor boards anymore
Whether the front room faces south or north
And I wonder what she bought it for

If you've got a spare half a million
You could knock it down and start rebuilding
If you've got a spare half a million
You could knock it down and start rebuilding
If you've got a spare half a million
You could knock it down and start rebuilding
If you've got a spare half a million
You could knock it down and start rebuilding

Depreston (Courtney Barnett cover)

My cover of Gillian Welch's 'Everything is Free'.
Recorded on 10/27/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

Everything is free now
That's what they say
Everything I ever done
Gonna give it away

Someone hit the big score
They figured it out
That we're gonna do it anyway
Even if it doesn't pay

I can get a tip jar
Gas up the car
And try and make a little change
Down at the bar

Or I can get a straight job
I done it before
Never minded working hard
It's who I'm working for

But everything is free now
That's what they say
Everything I ever done
Gonna give it away

Someone hit the big score
They figured it out
That we're gonna do it anyway
Even if doesn't pay

Every day I wake up
Humming a song
But I don't need to run around
I'll just stay at home

And sing a little love song
My love and myself
If there's something that you want to hear
You can sing it yourself

Cause everything is free now
That's what I said
No one's got to listen to
The words in my head

Someone hit the big score
But I figured it out
And I'm gonna do it anyway
Even if doesn't pay

Everything is Free (Gillian Welch cover)

My cover of U2's 'Running to Stand Still'.
Recorded on 10/29/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

And so she woke up
Woke up from where she was, lying still
Said I gotta do something
About where we're goin'

Step on a steam train
Step out of the driving rain maybe
Run from the darkness in the night
Singing ooh la, ah la la la de day

Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day

Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice

You know I took the poison, from the poison stream
Then I floated out of here, singing

Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day

She walks through the streets
With her eyes painted red
Under a black belly of cloud in the rain
In through a doorway
She brings me white golden pearls
Stolen from the sea
She is raging, she is raging
And the storm blows up in her eyes

She will suffer the needle chill
She's running to stand still
