I have been writing songs for 25 years. Having an aversion to recording studios, music production and hard work, this channel seemed like a good idea. I will post videos of me performing songs I wrote on acoustic guitar captured live in my cell phone with no editing. The purpose is to share songs I wrote with friends, family and anyone else that is interested. I hope you enjoy the music.

Only You
zhlédnutí 48Před 3 lety
lyrics by Dan Kruse music by Mike Finneron Only you Will you walk with me tonight? By the water and the blinking lights. Along the pier on the settled sea. No one here means a thing to me.  Only you! Only you do I want to hold my hand. Only you could understand. Only you! What’s that we had said? It doesn’t matter what’s up ahead. Turn down that road I think I saw a sign. If it gets to bright...
Puzzle Piece

Lyrics by Dan Kruse Music by Mike Finneron It’s a long way ‘round. When the road doesn’t turn. And there’s only one way out, And that bridge has been burned. So you live off your faith. And survive as you go. Attempt to cry out loud. Through a gut wrenching blow. So walk with me, as I need you tonight. Stay with me, tell me everything’s fine. There’s a calm to me, when you’re here by my side. Y...
Love is a Blessing

Lyrics by Dan Kruse Music by Mike Finneron Making your way back home. Your small, simple living town. Where the children are free to roam. Like water that’s on the ground. Off at the break of day. They’re out till the sun goes down. Street lamps that lead the way, Back to their safe and sound. Oh how they listened. To what they’re discussing. No one was missing. Their love is a blessing. Garden...

Lyrics by Dan Kruse Sweet sister sally, Is back in town. Oh sweet sister sally, How can I help you this time around. Sitting at the counter, With a cup of green tea. She’s here to find someone. Could that someone be me. I’ve been here all my life, Just waiting to be seen. And now you’ve come along again, To set my heart free. Knee bent at the alter Asking for a hand. I’ve got two and ones for y...

It Won't Hurt Lyrics: Dan Kruse Music: Mike Finneron Took my new set of car keys, Threw them in a lake. Can’t never ever be turned on, I’d say it needs a break. Paint a pretty colorful picture, Sit and write a song. Follow all the good books guidelines. Whether they’re right or wrong. (Chorus) It doesn’t matter if you break the rules. Straight and narrow is a game of fools. Hitch a ride to the ...
The Ballad of a Failure
zhlédnutí 154Před 4 lety
Word by Dan Kruse and Mike Finneron Maker chooses suit, as the dealer lays ‘em down. Queen will hold her court as the king has lost his crown. A marriage made from diamonds, Jack’s the heir to the royal thrown. Suicide was his fate, and now the hand is blown. In from the dark walks a man with a sack full of bills. here to take the pot for my final dying will. Coming round the first turn, the mu...
The Madman in his Bunker

Words and Music by Mike Finneron Well I woke up this morning with the tombstones in my eyes I didn’t know what it was but I felt like something had died I did everything I could to settle my worried mind But nothing seemed to work no matter how hard I tried Chorus And the people keep acting like the world still turns While the madman in his bunker sits idly as the world burns The signs were the...
The Garden of Wasted Things

Words and Music by Mike Finneron When the door into summer seems to close And the rain pours through the sides And you feel stranded on ghost empty roads Who'll be there to be your guide Because the nightwatchmen have all retired And even the vagrants asleep And you alone will be the beggar Asking yourself for relief. Chorus So find a shadow where you can blend in And point your eyes toward the...

That's How Every Empire Falls - John Prine Cover
I live in Anchorage, this song is awesome! Love the lyrics. Dont let the hatters bring ya down.
Like so many others, I am disappointed to find this isn't "Anchorage" by Michelle Shocked. This song is OK, but not what I was hoping for.
So Michelle Shocked's original song and video have been cancelled by CZcams? (Maybe this question'll be cancelled too.)
what the on earth happened to Michelle Shocked's version?
😢
The queer nation hate her so they blocked her like all good commie groups do
You need to add/change that description, you're getting views thinking it's the Michelle song. Sort it out son.
IT'S NOT THE MICHELLE SHOCKED - ANCHORAGE - SO SAD THAT NO ONE IS ABLE TO SING THAT VERSION IN SOME BIZARRE TWIST OF COPYRIGHT CONTROVERSARY.
😢
Yes, what is going on. This reminds me of 15 years ago... when you could not find any Beatles songs on CZcams. And some people do pay for content, premium members, etc.
So good!!! Voice is there, b
Dude .. no
❤️
Change the name.
😂😂
To what? I live in Anchorage, the lyrics and title makes sense to me
@@drumset09 Oh I am sure its just a coincidence. I believe that like I would believe you also wrote one called "shes buying a stairway to heaven" and "hey jude, dont make it bad". Both just because they make sense to you.
Jesus! How is this what youtube gives me when I ask for "anchored down in anchorage michelle shocked" feck you!
😂😂
"Blister in the Sun", anyone? Very fun. Nicely done. And I didn't mean for that to rhyme.
By the way, I‘ve learned Guitar in the meantime (commented here 2 yrs ago) any chance you could tell me the chords, chorus would be enough
The riff is a G7 chord using mostly chord tones. The Song is: G - D7 - G| G - D7 - G| C - G - D7 - C| D7 - G7| G7 - D7 - G. Or something like that.
Love
Love this tune
Thank you
I warren I'm on my CZcams account
Don't give up your day job pal
Unfortunate choice.
What is this?? Click bait??
Michelle Shocked wrote a song with the same title. vimeo.com/99288663
Awesome
Thanks Dan
Really dig this one!
Thanks man. I was sitting on it for weeks not really assured of it. But the response has been positive.
Always good to hear another RB Morris cover. Thanks.
Mike!! You’re insanely talented. Didn’t know you had so many songs. Wow!
Very nice.
Always loved this one.
A little Irish rebel
Mike its good to see you even if its on a video.
Badass Monster Mike!
Well done again!
“It was in tune when I found it” -- -- -- put it back where you found it...
LOVE IT, but what is the name of it? I think you are channeling the '60s folk singers.
Love it!
Btw, don’t respond to any random comment with generic names asking you to be friends. I’ve heard they can lead to malware. Please search for “wanna be friends” and “CZcams” and watch the vids. I had the same thing appearing on several of my vids as soon as I changed them from unlisted to public. I quickly then changed them to unlisted again.
Great song for today’s times. I hear a mandolin in the background.
Nice work again, mike! Your original compositions are as impressive as your covers! Soulful as always.
Thanks Chris. Can't wait to play again
Hell of a writing duo!
Thanks Uncle Texas!
@@michaelfinneron6939 You got it brotha!
Totally thought this was gonna be a cover of the Michelle Shocked song
I wondered why this song got so many views (for me that is). I guess you're not the only one.
this dizzy fu…. , you woun’t know where Anchorage is
Ditto
me too😅
Same. Love that song.
express yourself
I guess I need to thank you for writing a song that uses the Anchored down in Anchorage line. Looks like a bunch of your fans have listened to my song because of you.
@@michaelfinneron6939 do they consume fake news and believe you're a homophobe too? 😂
do you mean “press yourself” Mr. LEMON!
I always enjoy your singing and playing. My favorite is when you do these slower, introspective songs. Your voice captures the mood!
Thank Chris.
Brilliant!!!
keep em coming!
You two have something special.
Nicely done!
Monster Mike!
Loving these collaborations!
Killin it Monster Mike!
Diggin it Monster Mike! Great lyrics from Kruzito!
