Alas.......

Alas, I just looked at my list of songs and discovered that I had numbered a song for 2010 that doesn't exist, meaning that I was no longer at 98 songs, but 97. Then, going down the list and re-numbering to correct that mistake, I found another mistake in my numbering. So, I'm actually only at 96 songs right now, rather than 98. That means I have to write four more songs instead of two!!

:(

So disappointed. The goal is now a little farther away than I had thought.

August: (Free) Fallin' Through Old Memories

Free Fallin' Through Old Memories (Fallin') (Life Is A Wonder) Song #100 !!!! Not exactly sure what the title is yet. Well, this is it! Song #100 in my personal challenge to write 100 songs. Alas, this song was heavily influenced by John Mayer's version of Free Fallin' and I hope it's not TOO similar...... Right now, I can't go back and listen to JM's version cause I've got to get my song cemented in my brain so that I can hear that it's different.

As I was listening I was writing down whatever was flowing into my brain, with the theme being something about turning 60, getting old, aging, whatever. I wrote a bunch of st...

August: Looking Out On Nature

Song #98: Looking Out On Nature I went back through my binder of lyric ideas and found some lyrics about nature. The song turned into a description of what I see when I look out my front window - over my garden, Georgia Straight, the deer in the yard, the dragon flies hovering, the eagles floating on the thermals, the clouds in the sky. All the amazing wonders of nature I can see right from where I live. This song is in the "cutesy" category, that seems to work well on ukulele. I tried guitar first, but it just didn't fit. Alas, all my ukulele songs are in the same key, and they all have a sameness about them. Oh well, doubtful I'd ever sing them one after the other, so who will ever know? Ukulele in D Looking Out On Nature Sun rides high o'er Georgia Straight Ocean glittering light of day Clouds are building, full of rain Bless the garden once again. Looking out on nature, this is what I see All her wondrous beauty, and calm serenity. Dragon fli...
