Sometimes writing a song is the very best and only thing you can do.... Cold Winter Moon Oh cold winter moon And the wind that blows Bring me a change For my weary soul Take away this longing That fills my heart Something is over…

This was one of the most hilarious songwriting sessions we've had in a long time.... One for all the single people still searching for the elusive LTR out there - a classic with Greg Connor - guitar, Mark Lofgren - guitar and lead vocals, yours…

The MN coffee table is back!!!! We have a new member too - Joel Schaubert, who joined Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor - veterans of the coffee table. Once again we wrote this song and recorded it in my backyard coffee table (hence some of the wind…

I read recently that the term "gaslighting" was the number one search in Merriam Webster's Dictionary this year. So this song is dedicated to all of us who have stood up to that over the years... especially my very besties... you know who you…

We haven't been together in several months, but we had pent up creativity, and then were inspired by Bill Maher.... who gave us the hook.... "Humans Aren't Good People" Welcome back to the MN Coffee table - Colleen, Greg and Mark!!!! Humans…

Hello peeps! Long time no public activity from me. I've been working on a bunch of stuff with the guitarist from my old band. None of its ready... However, I've been experimenting with different ways of jamming and doing demos. And in the…

Listen to the Ice breaking on the shore of Lake Pepin, a wide spot on the Mississippi River. The sound of the Ice serves as a backdrop to the last of 11 songs on my new Album, "Instinct". The track was created using a log drum, Irish Whistle…

A happy song about being left by your no-good spouse. There's a word for the attitude in this song but I can't think of it right now ... this is now a tidied up version 18/3/09

This is my 2007 Pirate Day song, written and recorded September 19th 2007. I like the innuendo, but maybe it's too subtle - nobody else seems to notice ;~)

Well look what Gene started... I decided to put my own thoughts on this one, and look what weirdness popped into my head this fine evening.... Thanks for the fun idea Gene!!! Here are the lyrics: How To Assemble An Android © 2015 Colleen…

Sometimes life tends to repeat itself if you're not careful.... Good to find a moment to recognize old patterns and shake them off. Great help on this one from the MN Coffee Table Gang - Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, and Mark Lofgren…

Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…

This song was inspired for all of us who've cycled through a relationship or two.... My dear friends Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren of the infamous MN Coffee Table helped bring it to life with Greg on Banjo and Mark on Lead Guitar. Both of them…

I wrote this song as a way to process some of the feelings of sadness, dismay, anger, fear and love that were brewing inside my heart this past week. I live in Minneapolis, where the terrible killing of George Floyd occurred, and the subsequent…

Sassy Nation version! Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…

3rd Song for RPM. Getting this done was filled with late night torture. You tried so hard You tried so hard But you’re not there You’re not there You’re not there You’re not there You made your way Oh you made your way But…

It's now 12:00 am....so Song 2 for RPM is as done as it will be! In this tune I'm experimenting with vocal layering and using my analogue synth (my guitar and piano are giving me the skunk-eye). Thanks again for anyone listening out there…
