Songs in the Raw - still here

Oh my gosh..it's been a long time. I need to check back in to let you know that I am still here and writing. Actually, I'm writing quite a bit. I've been meeting with some great Nashville songwriters and I'm getting ready to make another demo of some of the new material.
BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M DOING HERE!

In case anyone has been by the Songs in the Raw home page, I put three new songs up there at the beginning of October. It seems as if some folks have made it there since there are a few plays on the play counter. The songs are called "Punching Bag", "Crumbling Pride" and "The Man Who Loves You". I am pretty happy with the way they turned out. As always, with Song in the Raw, I try to get them done and out without too much thought and detail work. I like it cause it allows me to be able to move on to another song. Plus, there's always time to go back and edit later.

I have tow new songs coming down the pipe this weekend. I'll have them out for you on Sunday. ""There is No I" is about a couple who have been together a long time. I think that we all feel this way after years in a relationship. While you still maintain a sense of self, the feeling of "us" gets stronger and stronger.

The next song is "Food For Worms" which is a little on the darker side. These days I feel like I have to be on the darker side more often. I was accused, early in my writing days, of being too dark. I've written a lot of happy songs along the way and fell like it's time to get back to breakups, death, end of the world type of stuff. What the hell....no one's listening anyway!

So, keep an eye and an ear out for "Food For Worms" and "There is no I" in the next couple of days. In the mean time, try out the new stuff on Song in the Raw. Don't ever be shy! I love to hear form people about this kind of thing....or anything.....
