| A Christmas Prayer by mfwmiles | 1 month ago |
 Thanks Elaine for the reminder of this wonderful song from Miles that we all got to help out on. Listening to these songs is a big part of Christmas at our home. And I bet we'll see a new one up soon this holiday season from our good friend... |

| i Pretend I'm Happy (unofficial band name 'The Lily Field') by Blacklilyorchard | 2 months ago |
Can't believe i never heard this wonderful song by the Lilies, Coreen and Lilichi. Saw this in the Criminally Overlooked from 2008 by jkane, and i feel criminal for overlooking it. I hope others take a listen as well. And is it possible that the anonymous bass player on this track is from Northampton? |

A birthday tribute and accompanying posts truly fit for our resident wizard. Loved Trilo's cake - happy "90th" JL, and another 90 more to you friend! Songs, and pages, like this, and people like you, are what make this the best music site on the planet. Cheers! |

| Hedgehog by Trilobite2 | 6 months ago |
Nice to hear this one and compare w Porcupine - agree with Mark on that one. Well done, a good listen, well composed. |
|
| Porcupine by Trilobite2 | 6 months ago |
well done. A harmless porcupine, ambling along in the forest, in the sunshine on a summer day - then again there are those bones, he devours in solitude... |
|
| SWEET MOMENTS by KCsGROOVE | 7 months ago |
| Nice slow shuffle groove. Sounds like a good Mark Knopfler tune. Great instrumentation - tasty guitar licks from Bing, tight drumming (some of the licks have a Charlie Watts feel) and that organ in the back gives the whole piece a rich layering. Love the lyrics, and had you not told us Cees i would have never guessed your voice is on the mend, it sounds fantastic. Well done! | |
| rise again by julianrob77 | 7 months ago |
Like the nice mellow feel of this one Jules, and how the guitars build a bit in the middle. Sounds like a relaxed, endless summer day... |
|
| no no no no (don't go) by that80sboy | 7 months ago |
Great tune Mark - reminds me of Joe Jackson. Great trademark 80's feel, well done. |
|
| Mo Stóirín by malekey | 7 months ago |
Chris sounds wonderful - great guitars, progression, and strong lyrics. Well done Chris, looking forward to the album! |
|
| Willamina by NorthPoint | 7 months ago |
| Thanks so much Steve, Maestro. Chris it's always a blast to play music with you. John yes - it takes a global team from East Coast, West Coast, Down Under, and Across the Pond to make a song about little Willamina Oregon, population 1,844. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willamina,_Oregon |
|
| Thin Disguise (bass line added) by julianrob77 | 8 months ago |
Those chord progressions at the beginning remind me of Sabbath. Alicia's vocal is haunting. Just a touch of Grace Slick, but overall this is very original, dark, mystical. The middle reminded me of Zep. This feels like a dream, with the past visiting the present. Can you add the lyrics? I hope this gets a lot of attention on the site. Honestly, i think a version of this with more instrumentation and some heavier sections (drums, electric, etc) would be very cool to develop. (crosses fingers) |
|
| You Ain't Goin' Nowhere by BossHook | 8 months ago |
Whoo-ee ride me high.... sounds great Boss, and I am sure Dyl and Petra appreciate this wonderful music. Let's put that Blue Yeti to some good use this year! Happy Memorial Day from Oregon. |

| This Years Love by etgilles | 8 months ago |
| et, another great acoustic cover. Thanks for posting them all together on your page at above link. I encourage folks to check them all out, these make a perfect ipod playlist. I see you have this wonderful David Gray tune, and also Babylon, and some Stones - Beast of Burden. The cover of Blue Train (below link) is still one of my all time favorite icomp songs ever. Well done et, hoping to make it up to Seattle and hear these live one day. Or bring 'em on down to Portland! Beautiful music, my friend. http://www.icompositions.com/music/song.php?sid=64227 |

| little boat to china by that80sboy | 1 year ago |
Nice uptempo beat, clean production well done Mark! The vocals are especially good. You're gonna leave everyone wanting one more that80sboy tune in 2010  |
|
| Man of Means by Beatle128 | 1 year ago |
| This is simply brilliant... songwriting at its best. Michael's lyrics and song structure are a homage to the Beatles, but John's and Michael's performance make it their own. It is a wonderful walk back into the 60's but with a fresh, new feel. Outstanding! | |
| A Captain's Winter by herrsolera | 1 year ago |
The holiday tradition continues with another treat from Herrsolera... we'll be listening to Cradle, Christmas, Carol, and now Winter in a tour de force ipod playlist. Happy Holiday and thanks so much Dan for one more year of these treasures. |

| Nashville Town by BossHook | 1 year ago |
| Came back to have another listen to this fine, fine tune while in Nashville Town this week, visiting family. We were at the Bluebird Cafe last night. This treasure from the Boss would have fit right in on stage. OK - next year in Nashville Town? I'll bring a bass.... |

| Romantic Necromancer by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| Wow Chris you have been busy! Especially liked the lyrics and the vocal performance, which is "all in" - well done. | |
| Take A Walk On The Wild Side by RubyDubidoux | 1 year ago |
| Elaine and Rex, so much good happening here. What a creative take on a Lou Reed classic - uke and harp and Elaine's great vocal. Rex, a wonderful cover art concept. This is the kind of collab that makes icomp such an amazing, special place. This would sound so good on the radio. | |
| Thumbing Rides in Winter by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| I clicked on this hoping to hear Chris's great harp and from the first note, there it was. Listening to this in Nashville, which seems perfect. Well done Stan and Chris.... great lyrics and performance. | |

|
| Goodbye All You People by BossHook | 1 year ago |
Another BossHook classic... great writing, performance, and production. Restless souls, summer nights, northern skies. This reminded me of the great BOC songs from the Agents of Fortune era. Looking for something more, leaving these towns, saying goodbye, looking for a better place... anyplace, anywhere but here. Bravo, John - enjoyed this one from start to finish. |

| Music To Your Ears by Foxglove | 1 year ago |
I love the guitar opening, and when the Shirli's vocal comes in, it is haunting. She can really sing. The band sounds great. That bass drum is huge - great how you recorded it. Everyone make sure and listen all the way through - you don't want to miss the guitar solo, smokin.... |
|
| Reflections In Time by jamesjrn | 1 year ago |
| Wow very cool! Am i first to comment? What an honor. I like how this has a deep beat, with a cathedral choir feel, then more of a european, vagabond, carnival feel. Then kind of out of nowhere (spoiler alert!) it really kicks in with almost s military, marching feel. This is a broad mix of sounds, very entertaining and fun to listen to. Nicely done James. | |
| Guess The Singers Competition by GlobalConspiracyProject | 1 year ago |

|
| Guess The Singers Competition by GlobalConspiracyProject | 1 year ago |
| i think Billy (Abstractvision) just launched into the lead... well done sir! So here is a complicating question: what happens if someone edits their post? I trust Ian is taking screenshots along the way Truly this is all for the SOS Children's Villages - that's what really matters, and we're all glad to be helping. |
|
| Guess The Singers Competition by GlobalConspiracyProject | 1 year ago |
| Well done Ravens! And Garni too! Yes i thought 13 and 14 were same. Maybe they are and Ian is playin' tricks on us eh? My guessing was pretty bad. I hope people will still collab with me Ok back to the bass cave. (Hi Maco) |
|
| Guess The Singers Competition by GlobalConspiracyProject | 1 year ago |

| China Girl by Vixen | 1 year ago |
Fantastic! Like how you took this in a whole new direction and made it your own. Well done Chris and Vicki! I was really hoping some of Chris' harp would make an appearance, and then as a reward for listing all the way through... there is was and so perfectly fitting an end to the tune. Zallaz and Vicki: according to Wikipedia page, the song was co-written by Iggy and David, an interesting read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_Girl_(song) |
