Good Morning...
I just want to post a short blog about a new song titled Blue Jeans. Available for streaming and downloading in the reverb music player on the Music page, Blue Jeans was written last summer and we finally got around to recording it in Orono about 4 months ago. In the key of your pants are blue, Blue Jeans strums Dm, Am, C, and F while containing two bridges. The first bridge is simply G and F, while the second bridge is the same bridge you hear Paul play in I Will. The outro's are variations of the chords C, G, and F. The song was written while my Mom ran to the grocery store. (as was Follow Me and 60% of Waiting on the Tide to Change) New Originals that I will be recording this year are... 1.) Mom Ran to the Grocery Store 2.) Music 3.) She Said 4.) Thank You For Your Love I'm outie.. Peace.... Zachary Daniel

It is with endless gratitude that we have gone ahead and released a new EP to iTunes.
I have been thinking since December how I would not want to keep anybody waiting too long and how it is important that I get a new product out there. The Nothing Is Real EP is just barely meeting the standards of an Extended Play project. The product here, is just that, it is extended play. A little over 7 minutes of music, that acts as a sequel to Zrobb, FaceSound, and The Live Albums. So without further adue this Wednesday, the 4th of February, you will be able to purchase... The Nothing Is Real EP 1.) This Moment 2.) Nothing Is Real Keeping things short and simple is the goal here as I just want you to have something tangible as we prepare the release of the next big record. We'll catch you soon at one of the shows. Stay tuned and feel free to sign up for the mailing list on the homepage for a sneak peak at one of the singles off the new record titled Hats. I love you World!!! With Love, Zach Thank you for visiting my blog. This, here is a call to anybody out there who wants to master it the All For You EP. Feel free to send me an e-mail or text message regarding the mastering of the All For You EP. When the time comes to release it, I have a bonus track that I am going to attach to it. Thank you so much.
Carry on with love. All for you. When I originally tabbed out All For You, I did not add Am where it belongs. I am taking a moment to thank those whom care, and to blog about the fascination I have for the Am that adds to the flavor of the sound in which you hear. Am was once missing, Am is no longer a stray. All For You Note: The way I play C7 in this song is x32xxx. If you are a musician and you realize x32xxx is actually a different chord. Please do not hesitate to comment below or message me the chord you know it to be. For now, lets call it C7. Thanks. Intro: C C7 C C7 VERSE C C7 Am Say good bye to the sun it's goin away F G C C7 behind another cloud where it can rest we'll stare up at the moonlight tonight. C C7 C Am Winters comin another season. Another season. F G C C7 Where we can rest right by the fire, drink some wine, and fuel up on desire. CHORUS C C7 C C7 Cuz this is all for you. This is all for you F G C C7 C C7 This is all for you. This is all this is all for you. C, this is the fun part about getting older. While re-tabbing All For You from the version I have posted at the bottom of this page, I learned that there were only suppose to be 6 C's starting from the word All that you C at the end of the first chorus. However, given my younger, less experienced intelligence at the time, I actually played 7 C's by mistake. Now when I list my counted C's, do note that I am, as you obviously know, including C7 as being a C. This leads me to admit that I can not wait, and am extremely excited to one day re record All For You with the 6 C's, so that I can show you how much better it actually sounds. haha. It's so funny. So now we'll continue by tabbing out exactly what we hear... even though some measurable chords are incorrect. VERSE C C7 C Am Starin up at the stars tonight and they are shining so bright. F G C C7 And if I follow them then will they take me back. Take me back to you. C C7 C Am Standing on the porch tonight. And everything is feeling right. F G C C7 And every moment is so different from the last I'm exploring change tonight. CHORUS BRIDGE G Don't let your bones shake for too long cuz I'll sing you a song. C C7 C C7 G Don't worry. Don't ever worry. Cuz it's alright. One day the sun will be back. C C7 C C7 G That sun will be back. That is coming back. It will be back. C C7 C C7 C C7 C C7 end on C This here is a memorable acknowledgement to Jennifer Sullivan. Her talent and elegance has been making tuneful waves as her music continues to inspire and seep out into the airwaves. This here is one of my favorite songs by her, available on I-Tunes off her superior album "Somethin' New". When Jennifer responded last night with the chords to the bridge I darted off my bed and too my computer, guitar in hand, too continue practicing this masterpiece. I thank Jennifer for responding as she has always been so thoughtful and courteous when responding and chatting. This song is a sweet summery tune, that is sure to make all the guys out there swoon with dizzy eyes and faint foreheads as we love her unconditionally. I will be posting my cover of Autumn Moon this Autumn, or sooner. lol. I am feeling very thankful that I have been lucky enough to have met her as it has brought great feelings and inspiration into my life. Autumn Moon NOTES: The chords during Verse 1 repeat and stay the same during the chorus and verse 2. VERSE 1 C G Am Ten thousand miles out of reach. Em F C F I wanna see my mamma. She's sweet as summer time. G Time keeps passing by like children building a future on a changing earth. Since birth I knew that I belonged to you. CHORUS Whenever summer yellows in the fall, like the last leaf I will be holding on. To all of your love, as we sore the auburn sky above. Whether the seasons make or break apart, you're always in my heart. Every night I dream of you beneath the autumn moon. VERSE 2 Some days I wake up to screaming sounds of sirens. And I miss the quiet life of simplicity and silence. Are you alright? Wish I was there with you tonight. The stars are dim. I feel like them so far from drowning bright lights. REPEAT CHORUS C Autumn Moon BRIDGE F Bb C F Try your very best to mend my wing and build a nest. Dm Bb But now that I can fly, C F Em the time has come for me to go alone. Dm Gm But I feel so strong, I belong F - Fm anyway. Thank you so much to those who visit the site, download the music, and keep in touch. Love is the conversation. There's never a dull moment, when you're loved and in love. I can feel my life changing, in ways that are bigger than I can describe, and my thoughts are to stay grateful, humble, and devoted to positive change. Thoughts are easily redirected if we choose to redirect them towards positive thoughts and this is what I've been practicing my whole life. Mastering the craft of positive thinking can be done.
My focus is you. How are you? How can I help you? Talk to me. I understand it is me doing my best when I promote you, spread your talents, and your great vibes. Big shout outs go to the most talented people I know... Sylvana Joyce, Jennifer Sullivan, Dar Pamilacan, JR Garcia, Evan Nachimson, Megan Talay, Miranda Inzunza, Josh Logan, Rachel Lynn, Rachel Ann Weiss, Billy Conahan, on and on and on. These are just a few of the most talented individuals I met in my (what went by fast) 2 years in New York. Ben Raetz, Tracy Thorne, Lord Lorax, Nick Danger, Mary Jennings, Matt Pless these people are always in my thoughts. Talented, kind, friendly, and incredible funny individuals. Love is now. Love is here. And love is the focus as I write this blog. Caity Brown and Nikolous Dimoulas are just a few talented people I met here in Maine recently. Love goes to them. Kosi. Anyone that i have not listed, I love you! I am realizing that there is so much that can be accomplished when your focused and healthy. Moving to Maine has been a whirlwind and having just begun relationships with all the great folks that I've met in New York, I understand it is some time away that is going to strengthen this love and build it up for my big return. Work has turned into 40 hour work weeks, stocking shelves, and bringing in product in the Auto Zone. It's never a dull moment, when I jump with excitement to realize that I am getting closer and closer to paying off those dreaded college loans. lol. My thoughts are love and I am ready for this. I can feel this change coming. I am sincerely thankful for every conversation I hold with the coolest people around. We're all in this together and music is what pulls us through. Surrounding myself with family has created this undeniable energy that has me believing all is possible. If I did not have my family to fall back on after all the time spent in New York I do not know what I would do. It's funny, how I believe that when you meet someone... the right person.... just knowing that person and connecting with that person can create such feelings that love powers the engine and music steers. Quotes are cool, new riffs have been created, and health is the main focus. So many "Mainers" smoke and treat there health terribly... It is with great determination and lots of vitamins, that I believe I can overcome the "smoking is cool" myth. Anyway. I wanted to write a blog just to mention some shout outs to my friends that keep me going. Every phone call, every text message, every blog comment, they mean so much to me. I have found myself in heaven and understand this time is a time for me to collect myself, work hard, and put music on the back burner. Given how LOVED music is, I know it will return as the main focus before long, however I am no doubt taking some time off. There are exciting things coming, and new recordings are being recorded this season. But it is not myself that I want to talk about. It is really my friends in New York, Jennifer Sullivan, my former roommate Dar Pamilacan, Dusty Weideman... these people have shown such devotion to keeping in touch and with each and every conversation, I find a strengthening of trust, connections, and above all love. Every time I find myself grateful enough to be in a conversation I find the most incredible person is shining through you, with loved energy and great vibes. Your addicting personalities have me missing you so dearly, and thinking of you every day. Every one, Susan Johnson whose down in Key West! There is not a day that goes by that I am not thinking of you. Sarah and the girls down in the Carolinas. Splitting has been rough, and I know our love will bring us together. May this blog post be filled with love for all who I have mentioned. I am impressed with your strength as you continue holding on and doing the best that you can do. You are all incredible people and your work is admired by I. I am in no way frustrated or negative. Any past frustration has subsided as success has never so close to being something that I have worked hard at achieving and finally have achieved. Money. Money comes money goes. Money has never mattered as much as your love. It's funny. Money can always be present if we wish for it to be... but it is lending it, and sharing it that makes me happiest. To make someones day, is my focus. Did you guys see Miley Cyrus rep the homeless once she was granted a VMA? That just about gave me goosebumps.... it's small things like that make me love Miley and appreciate who she is as a role model and icon for the next generation, and generation to follow. Miley's focusing on the homeless was great. It nearly froze me with awe, as I bowed down to her beauty and intelligence as a kind and loved girl. I would give anything to let Miley know how much I love her. It's funny, cuz once you love someone, and you truly entirely and cant express how much you love them, love them. You can suddenly find yourself right in true love. There's people like Miley that I've met that I never thought I would ever be able to actually say, I know this person, and I love this person so much that it hurts, and I have been inspired by this persons act of kindness etc. I'm thankful to be sitting back, inspired every day, and simply in awe by you. I bought Evan Nachimsons Who Am I on I-Tunes this evening. It was honestly a real blast to stream the album for what feels like the first time. Evan's Billy Joel style, and loving attitude is going to take him places. FAST! lol. When my whole body ignites with goosebumps, I know that great things are right around the corner for Evan. I hope my purchase of $4.95 all goes to Evan, and that he is able to release more music to I-Tunes as it is one of the coolest things about life in general. I-Tunes and all of its magic is another great conversation. After all, how fascinated are you when you purchase a track from I-Tunes and you have it forever. You can download the sounds of someone you love and replay there voice whenever you want. And if it gives you chills, even cooler, because to me, goosebumps are SICK! Goosebumps slow down time. Goosebumps create a feeling that is mutual. Goosebumps create this magnetic pull on ones mind causing energy to flood serotonin through the brain and cause an affections love vibration to warmth, massage, and properly address a great feeling. And its alright, if your a musician and your not giving me goosebumps that is cool too. Cuz a lot of times its lyrics that will get the love muscles moving too. haha. I dunno... Even if music isn't what you specialize in, there are still so many things I love about you. I conclude my blog by mentioning thanks to Caity and Nikolous for entering my life. Caity's voice is one that needs to be heard if you have not heard it yet! Her performances at the local open mic have blown me away! Caity has studied music and helped musicians get recording contracts and signed to a label! I mentioned to her this afternoon that I could not wait to blog about her. It's true. Theres so much about Caity that makes me love her and miss her everyday. I also get extremely excited to see her. I mean how many people do you know that work with bands in other countries, help put on folk festivals, while continuing a music career at the same time. Caity has gone to school in Chicago as well as locally and has been in and out of New York City, always doing something for the music industry. I am thankful for Caity and I can not wait to continue coming up with great ideas to help further her business. We will be doing a duet soon at the Open Mic of a great song that she turned me onto. It is by a groovy group named Forgive Durden and the track is called The Missing Piece. Caity also introduced a great track by The Decemberists titled The Mariners Revenge Song. That track is great, and Caitys cover of it was better than the original! Thank you Caity for all in which you do. Alright fam, I love you. I am going to wrap up this blog post by letting you know true that statement is and hang in tight as great things are coming! Life will only be getting better from here and you are my heart and sole. Shout of to my brother, Matthew for working hard and being my best friend, and shout out to my cousins Heather and Amanda for being recently present in my life. Bumping into my cousin Heather in Dunkin Donuts today was so groovy! It's great how much she looks like Katy Perry to me! LOVE!!!!!!!!! Stay in love everyone! Love is you. Sincerely, Zachary Robinson So this evening I am here to talk about South Bound Train. Thanks to those who have listened a long the way. I am taking a step back from all the hustle and bustle and trying to write new music as well as analyze what has been written and recorded. South bound train is kind of like that song you just cant do the same over and over again so you want to smash your guitar and throw it in a fire. lol. But instead of doing that... I've here to analyze the lyrics, pick and choose which lyrics are best and create a solid "this is how south bound train goes" south bound train. So without further adue... Lets read. (haha)
Southbound Train Live At Sylvana's ... Chords : C - D - Em VERSE 1 Here we are on a southbound train. Feelings and vibes morph with grace. And with you by my side all through the night. On a southbound train. And well here we are on a southbound train. I can hear you from miles away. And it goes to a place. oh baby. On a south south southbound train. CHORUS Well I am here today. And you said you'd love me always. Now well I am... I am having these feelings for you. VERSE 2 So well here we are on a northbound train. Thank god theres love oh babe. Cuz it's nice and it's right always. On a north, north, northbound train. And here we are on a northbound train. Funny to me and to you my babe.

Have you ever felt like those dreams of yours... Could come true... oh come true. Love CHORUS lol ... Got a good kick out of that one. Reading it out loud in my, as some would call it, baritone voice... or as you may find it easier to relate with, my announcer voice. AND THE WINNER IS ....... !!!!! lol ... Ok... So now we're going to chat about the version that was recorded at my good friend Steve Blasts... This version is a bit more relate able, less annoying, and lyrically correct. Lyrics are important. The bridge from Sylvana's was definitely more on point and goosebump pimpally boned.... So given this... I will be doing my best to combine the two recordings, analyze what is good in each of them... keep that... and remove what was bad in both of them, and leave that out. In conclusion... I will write a final version below... Lets read on... South Bound Train Recorded with Steve Blast Representing Wyldlife Records... VERSE 1 Here we are on a southbound train. Everything moves slowly today. And people walk by with such nice smiles. And even start to wave. And here we are on a southbound train. And I'm just floating through outer space. With you by my side and you hold me tight. And I'll hold you through the night. CHORUS And I'm hear today. And you said you'd love me always. Now I'm having these feelings for you. Tonight. VERSE 2 Here we are on a northbound train. And feelings and vibes start to float away. And we're just cruising through black and white. through the clouds. And all through the night we try not to cry. If your tears start to fall I'll dry them with my. With my love, and my hands I'll try try try to be there as much as I can. CHORUS BRIDGE Have you ever felt like you were falling in love. Have you ever been there? Have you ever felt like those dreams of yours. They certainly... they certainly could come true. woah. CHORUS Ok, so you've made it this far... You're reading... You're thinking, you're breathing, you're being you... Thanks you. You're loved. Now given what we've learned today... I've decided to draft out what I think a good final version of this song would be... You may not be able to notice to many changes... We'll see how things go. Check back soon for more fun songs and lots of white t shirts and water balloons. South Bound Train FINAL VERSION TO BE RECORDED VERSE 1 Here we are on a southbound train.

Whille at six flags we spent a few bucks on a gyro. C - G - F . .......... Fm Kindly I was having a Moment. I was with her, and I said I dont wanna leave It was the kind of moment when I said. This is exactly where I want to be. CHORUS I was grateful when my friend from the UK, Simon Burrows asked me if I wanted to complete a question and answer. I got excited about it, because I'd always love to read these kind of things from my favorite artists... Here's my latest question and answer y'all.... Enjoy.
FULL NAME: Zachary Daniel Robinson DATE OF BIRTH: May 21st, 1989 HAIR COLOR: Brown (with hints of red) EYE COLOR: Green Eyes (Made me think of the Coldplay song) HEIGHT: 5 " 9 SHOE SIZE: 11 FIRST MEMORY: I used to laugh and say that when I was born I could hear the people talking about Bill Cosby. Of course this is probably false, babies can not speak or understand much at the age of 3 seconds... I don't even think the brain is anywhere near being fully developed when you're first born. I dunno, I just remember this Bill Cosby conversation but I will never be able to proove it... So I'm going to have to think of a better first memory... which would probably be looking at my Mother and saying Mumma and hearing the aww's and my face lighting up. Pure Love . STRONGEST MEMORY: I would probably say the time I spent with the loved Susan Johnson would be my strongest memory. It was very recent and very adored. We went through Hurricane Sandy and had the best times in her kitchen. We called it Y'alls Kitchen. There is only one Y'alls Kitchen. LIFE CHANGING MOMENT: Beginning an internet friendship with Simon Burrows, the creator of this Question and Answer of course. LOWEST MOMENT: I would probably say losing my dad to lung cancer in 2003 would be my lowest moment. It was quite the tragedy. HAPPIEST MOMENT: One of my most recent happiest moments was when I performed at Silvana's in Harlem NY. There was nothing more fun then zooming below time square on the 3 with goosebumps still appearing and disappearing on my arm. I felt much gratitude and extreme positive energy was flowing through each vein that evening. Thank you to all who are listening and supporting the tunes. BIGGEST REGRET: Dropping out of Keene State College. I now realize that I should have gone to school for MUSIC or Real Estate and this is now what I am pursuing. I did study a lot of music in college which makes me grateful and thankful. I dropped out because my "band" dropped out and my brother dropped out of UNH. It was pure stupid. AMBITIONS: Music. Being the noun that music is, it has always created a drive in me and made me want to achieve success so that I could pursue my dream of becoming a musician. DREAMS: I've met so many women in my travels and they all keep me motivated. Sometimes a girl will give you that extra boost of love that you need that no one else can provide you with. I'm endlessly grateful for all the incredible women I've met along the way. My dreams are to meet that one woman that I can settle down with and come home to every night after work. PROUDEST ACHIEVEMENT: Receiving my high school diploma and then receiving my first paycheck from writing music. Those 2 achievements were equally satisfying. FAVORITE THINGS: FAVORITE SONG : In My Life FAVORITE FLOWER: Rose FAVORITE BAND: The Beatles FAVORITE FILM: The Notebook or Avatar. I can't decide. FAVORITE BOOK: Don't Sweat The Small Stuff FAVORITE FOOD: Jamba Juice Smoothies FAVORITE HOLIDAY DESTINATION: No doubt New York City WHO DO YOU MOST ADMIRE: Jason Mraz WHAT SCARES YOU: Fast cars and the show 1,000 Ways To Die WHAT MAKES YOU LAUGH: Many things. Musicians and comedians. When my voice cracks while singing. When someone trips. You know if you think hard enough, you can think of being unable to contain your laughter at least once to someone tripping. Sorry.... um.... Ellen Degenerous. I love her more then I can express. When someone gives me a butterfly on my tummy. When someone spits water out of there mouth because they're laughing. Laughs in general. Tiny microscopic dogs with mini shoes. Birds that talk. Newscasters that flub a line and say the wrong thing by accident. Steve Correll. Cows and horses that kick people in the face. America's funniest home videos. Rope Swingers that can't let go of the rope swing. Gymnasts that fall while doing gymnastics. Dogs that walk while their anuses are touching there ground and there legs are sticking up in the air. People that drive there car straight into the garage door by accident. People that throw a basketball over there head, while standing with there back to the basket, from the opposite end of the court and swish it. Farts during study time. Dude Where's My Car. Babies that are cracking up. Marijuana. WHAT MAKES YOU CRY: Often, outer body experiences may overwhelm me and move me. Feelings of floating up and out of the body, etc... Basically when I'm overwhelmed, I'll cry. WHAT MAKES YOU ANGRY: Wrongful accusations... For example people in jail for things they didn't do, or when people get in trouble for things that they should not have gotten in trouble for. WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO: "Be there or be Z Squared" 5 FACTS ABOUT YOU THAT PEOPLE DON'T KNOW: 1.)My mother was born into a family with 10 children. And on the same note my father was born into a family of 6 children. Thats 16 aunts and uncles. lol. 2.) One fact that not many people may know about me is one of the best memories I've had in my lifetime was listening to In The Hall Of The Mountain King by Edvard Grieg in about the 3rd grade. Not only did I get goosebumps by pure instruments, but our teacher was incredible and had us all hide under our desks and she intelligently had us picture these trolls on there way to the King. When you were under your desk, the image our teacher provided us with was, "picture yourself in a cave. The mountain king is in the distance and you are a troll surrounded by trolls." Haha, it was so groovy that after the class I had to ask my rocking teacher, I enjoyed In The Hall Of The Mountain King so much that I really wish to bring it home with me so I can listen to it. Is there anyway you could hand me a copy of the Music on a cassette tape. She went about copying the music from one cassette to another cassette right in front of my eyes. I could see the wheels inside one cassette spin one way while the wheels of the other cassette were receiving the music and spinning another way. It was groovy to say the least. 3.) On the topic of cassette tapes, I used to love rapping along to Eminem. Mom disliked the swear words, as I will too when I have children... So what I did was, I'd have say White America playing on a cassette tape... I would press the stop button right before the swear word and then I would press Record and Pause at the same time and then press stop real quick right away. That way it created zero sound right over the swear word, and then the song continued on as normal. Then I'd invite the family into the room and go about my weekend performances singing into Dad's shoe, instead of a microphone. 4.) My first job was painting. I was a painter in the 8th grade and Modest Mouse was hott that year. 5.) I was diagnosed with Tourrette Syndrome in the 2nd grade. The diagnoses lifted as years went by and the tics that rarely occur are merely eye twitches and throat "clicks". FAVORITE ACTOR & ACTRESS: Kirsten Dunst will always be and has always been someone that I love so dearly. Her acting with Toby in Spiderman 2 was impeccable and she never fails to make super happy. I love her dearly. GUILTY PLEASURES: Probably when I smoke a cigarette, which leads me to the next question . DO YOU / HAVE YOU EVER SMOKED: I do not consider my self a smoker any longer. I quit in January of 2013 and have recently smoked a bit because my brother buys cigarettes and smokes them and I am with him. However, I still don't smoke a lot at all. I smoked from 18 to 23 and the last 2 years of me being a smoker, I smoked very very lightly. I am to afraid of all the health problems smoking causes. FAVORITE DRINK (BOTH ALCOHOLIC AND NON ALCOHOLIC): I've been on a smoothie kick lately. Working at Jamba Juice taught me everything I need to know about smoothies. The best smoothie I feel out of the Jamba Juice menu would be The Strawberry Surfrider. It is 8 oz. lemonade, two scoops of lime sherbet, two 1/4 scoops of frozen strawberries, and a single 1/4 scoop of frozen peaches. It's delicious. For alcoholic drinks, I'd probably have to say a classic coors light never fails. I don't drink alcohol too much cuz I learned how bad it is for you when I was younger. CASH OR CARD: Card SUMMER OR WINTER: Summer EAT IN OR RESTAURANT: Restaurant SMILE OR EYES: Both HEAVY OR LIGHT SLEEPER: Usually Heavy DAY OR NIGHT: Day BOXERS OR BRIEFS: Briefs TEA OR COFFEE: Tea PARTY ANIMAL OR STAY AT HOME: When I am in New York City, I am definitely a party animal. Lately I've been taking it easy and writing music at my mom's house in Maine. She recently moved so I had to help in the move. 5 BOOKS YOU'D TAKE ON AN ISLAND WITH YOU: 1.) The first book that came to mind is Don't Sweat The Small Stuff. I read this book many years ago, most likely when I was in my mid teens and i found it to be a re awakening experience. In other words,this book opened up my eyes and taught me that life can be so simple. Often, our thoughts are cluttering our minds, making life seem so much more difficult than it is,and suddenly this book taught me how to slow down those thoughts and literally avoid any issue that may be present in our lives. Don't Sweat The Small Stuff is similar the your favorite song, it brings you places and teaches you something. It's also very similar to meditation. Don't Sweat The Small Stuff is that experience you have when your at church and suddenly they put holy water on you forehead and you start shaking in an experience, possibly crying tears of joy. My feelings towards Don't Sweat The Small Stuff are strong and my experience reading this book was life changing. It goes step by step chapter 1 chapter two first thing to do next thing to do... having an issue? here's the solution... I found this book to be so helpful in slowing down my thoughts and redirecting my thinking that I purchased the Don't Sweat The Small Stuff Workbook. lol. I wrote like a mo fugga in that thing. Richard Carlson is the author, if I'm not mistaken. Man to I have to thank that guy. 5 books I'd take on an island... hmmm.... 2.) Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets kicked butt... 3.) A Thesaurus 4.) The Beatles Anthology 5.) The Bible 5 CD'S YOU'D HAVE IF YOU WERE STRANDED SOMEWHERE.... EX: THE SAHARA : 1.) Number 1 is definitely the White Album. That album is so timeless, and I can't think of an album that even comes close to being longer or better. It's just so epic. 2. ) Sylvana Joyce and The Moment - For you, Comrade 3.) Definitely, Rachel Ann Weiss. I played with this genius at The Delancey in New York City. Her album Dear Love, is a guarantee'd chiller. Her voice is so sensual and sultry. Rachel hits every note with ease, and writes like Mariah Carey. Her voice is just about equally as talented, and Rachel has pipes. Her music is inspiring and melodic and it brings goosebumps souring through my arms and legs. I love her songs... Lonely, Carry You, The Ballad of Joshua David Paul, Until I Meet My Next Love, Rivermoon Romance, the whole Dear Love album is a must have. Check it out if you haven't. You'll love her. 4.) I just recently bought Me... I Am Mariah The Elusive Chanteuse, so I would have to add that one to the list. The album gave me tons of goosebumps when I was listening to You Don't Know What To Do. Right Mariah? 5.) I've got to list my man J Mraz with Jason Mraz Live And Acoustic. This is Mraz's live album recorded at Java Joes in 2001 and it wasn't released on I-Tunes until 2008. Halfway Home gave us all goosebumps a few hours ago, and there is no more acoustic jazz album that I know of. It's like the man created his own genre by making an acoustic guitar sound unlike anything else that I had heard out there. All those old songs are so genius! It's so much better then anything Mraz did in the future, and I'm just such a crazy Mraz fan that I had to list this album. It's dope!!! TATTOOS / PIERCINGS: None ANY OTHER INFO I am so stoked that I gave birth to Loving at the beginning of 2014. John Lennon has always been a massive inspiration, and this song was written in the West 4th Train Station in NYC in December of 2013. The melody and the idea was anyway. I made zero since when I wrote the melody and formed a few ideas... however, when I came home to visit Mom, I knew I had some great play dough to mold and realize the reality of this new original Loving was very malleable. I'm STOKED! This is a great mix of inspirational ideas from Jason Mraz's Be Honest and John Lennon's Instant Karma. Below you will find the chords that I have posted as well as a neat video from the gazebo that my father, Clint Robinson built with his own hands in Auburn NH. We have since moved from the house in Auburn and we reside next to the Bangor International Airport in Maine. Hope you guys enjoy Loving! Loving Standard Tuning D - G - D – F#m The Walrus walks down with a shuffle. The crowd in front, well they start to hustle. Bm - E - Em - A I love how you've made it so far, in so many ways. (D- G- D -F#m- Bm- E- Em- A) To the tune, you hear them humming. The drum kicks, while the bass is thumping. The people gather in the park. To watch the band play. F#m - A (repeat chords 3 times) I couldn't have made it without loving you. Couldn't have made it without feeling blue. E Could I be a better dude? G - D This was made for you. Bm - A - G And all that you do. G – D - A This was made for you and you too. F#m - A (Repeat chords 3 times) The sound you make is quite stunning All of the people start running. E Before the music floats away. F#m – A (repeat chords 3 times) What is that that you're puffing? Rub a dub dub, I'm scrubbing. E Music improves throughout the day. CHORUS Em – F#m Aint it nice to be lovin so freely. Bm - D- Db- Em And in love, you know just taking it easy. F#m - A Aint it nice to be loving so freely.

In return, I ask for nothing. Except for a bit of your love. The feelings I have, they keep flooding. The edge of these sounds are quite cutting. They are yours to make good use of.
