Sunshine.

(Brian Hendrix)

I really liked the way this turned out. It's fun to sing too, with different inflections of "Sunshine" at the start of each sentence. As far as the writing, I think it does well to paint a picture of a world without sunshine, especially when it's revealed what "sunshine" is.

Sunshine, you been gone for ‘bout three days now
Sunshine, you been ducked behind those clouds
Sunshine, without you, skies stay weeping 
Sunshine, in your absence, skies grow loud 
Sunshine, the flowers miss your warm touch
Sunshine, your glow just won’t break through
Sunshine, has the darkness come to claim you
Sunshine, for if not, I think you’re due 

(Guitar solo; no chorus) 

Sunshine, used to warm up well the cold ground
Sunshine, it’s like ice since you have strayed
Sunshine, and your minute’s worth a lifetime 
Sunshine, for your return, the ladies pray
Sunshine, can’t see the moon without you
Sunshine, we’re shrouded now in purple night
Sunshine, we’re walking ‘round in circles
Sunshine, hear our pleas, and shed your light

(Guitar) 

Sunshine, kept us locked tight in your cradle
Sunshine, we go now spiraling through space
Sunshine, though it was hard to look upon you
Sunshine, now we just long to see your face
Sunshine, your children weep without you
Sunshine, felt her glow could use a change
Sunshine, what the folks don’t know about you
Sunshine, the girl was mine, that was her name 
Yeah, Sunshine, the girl was mine, that was her name

(Guitar)

Got inspired once upon a time to write a song about a magnolia tree. I think it turned out pretty well.

A Lot Like Me

By Brian Hendrix

One of those choruses I've had written for a while. Digging through old song files, looking for inspiration, figured I'd finish it. So I wrote three verses and a bridge for it, kept the chorus as-is and built around it. Basically about two firebrand lovers who are compatible in the best--and worst--ways. I like it. I think it's clever in places, catchy in others, and strong melodically.

Love on Kate

By Brian Hendrix

A song for Kate. Though it doesn't have to be specific to the Kates of the world. Many men have the problem of being inside their head too much, not realizing that they need to put more effort into loving their women. Men like us sometimes need to remind ourselves that our women need some TLC.

Bittersweet Maria

By Brian Hendrix

No big story behind this one. I'm not even sure I know any Marias. Yet from Townes Van Zandt and David Allan Coe to rock and roll bands like Counting Crows, everyone has their obligatory "Maria" song, so now I do too.

I love You So (Dear Mommas)

By Karianne Gabaldon

To the most wonderful person in the world; the woman who saved my life multiple times and would be willing to do it again; the woman who once raised me and still continues to do so... my mom. I love you, mom! And even though this song is pretty personal, you can always change it around once it’s yours.

Tweet, tweet

By Edward McBride

This song is about how we communicate these days and tweeting has become more prominent as the President of the USA uses it extensively. Conversely it can be very annoying especially during the work day and the lyrics highlight the problem.
