this is the very first song that I wrote. It is also on U Tube. It seems to be a firm favourite with most people.
Story of a young ,man who cheats on his girl, eventually regrets it and is trying to win her back.
Will O' the Wisp is a new track with words written by me (Colin Scott) with subtle changes and melody by Colin Shore, who has also made the recording.
This track is one that I wrote thinking of the current "fad" for gender changing/bending. Recorded at the Scamp Studios it is a really funky sound.
This track was sent for assessment by the Guild and was noted as "a likely standard on open mic sessions". A nostalgic sort of song with just one cock-up in the recording - the final line should be "I would EVEN take a vow". My bad on the lyric sheet I sent in. I do have a backing version should anyone want to try it.
A rockin' good Christmas rock song.
The suggestion was to write a song about happiness. I thought that getting good news after finding a lump was pretty happy, so here it is. Fully recorded at home with computer drum, child's keyboard and acoustic guitar that I have some difficulty with after the stroke.
This is a song that I wrote in an attempt at writing a rock tune. At least that's the intention. I don't think it has turned out too bad considering , again, it's a home recording.
This is 2020's new Christmas song. It was requested by one of my fans (yes I do!) and has been given the thumbs up by them, too. Hope you enjoy it.
This is a song that I wrote and recorded at home. The first version I became unhappy with, so I completely re-worked it. I am very grateful for my good neighbour Holly for providing the "YES" near the end. I needed a female voice.
Another straight forward love song, but quite nice.
A pleasant little ditty I think. Picture yourself on or near your favourite piece of water and drift into the lyrics.
A typical love song that says it all for itself.
A story of wishing from afar, then love coming true in the end.
A very humorous song ready for Christmas 2021. This is one of my favourites and still makes me laugh.
A story of a couple who dated and then split. He (or she) now wants to meet again. A noce one.
He fell in love (at first sight) with a street walker.
A pleasant ballad about a couple's 50th wedding anniversary, and the events leading there.
Young love that can't wait, so comes the plea - let's move in.
One that is a trad love song, and one that I particularly like. I entered it into the UK Songwriting Competition and it achieved three stars. The Judges comments included:- Competently crafted; Songwriting ability and potential; Positive and encouraging. I am quite chuffed with my first venture into major competitions.
A rather nice rock song.
Another rock song, and one that is well liked.
A very nice ballad about bringing his love many presents - finishing with his heart! This acoustic version (I also made a fuller version) has been entered in the 2022 Talent is Timeless Songwriting Competition - for over 50's and acoustic only. Fingers crossed.
Something of a quite heavy rock number. It seems well liked.
The gambler has a problem - losing! He wants "them" to stop him. No willpower.
Trying to get sense into a runaway's head.
A good old rock n roll song for your Christmas party.
More pure rock n roll OK a love song, but in rock n roll.
A nice ballad about a couple reaching their 50th wedding anniversary - their Golden Anniversary.
It gets to that point in a relationship when you just want to be together - all the time!
An instrumental piece using various instruments on Bandlab.
Another love ballad all about bringing presents for his girl
Another love song. Fancy that!
Pure rock n roll. Ready to PARTY?
I decided to write a song featuring a girl's name. Becky is the result.
A very sad song about one's love being taken away by illness.
Just a catchy little number.
Story about a teenage girl who thinks she's much older, and wants to play with the boys. It all goes wrong in the end. This is version 1.
Same song as above, but version 2.
A new up-dated version of one of my early songs. Much improved.
Story of a young man who short of money, decides to rob a store, only to run into the arms of the police. Now he's asking his girl to wait while he's finished his prison time.
A new venture for me. Simply a drum and bass dance track, complete with FX (effects to the uninitiated). Look out for this at the next rave you go to.
A bit of a tear-jerker. Father's story of his daughter growing up and leaving home.
