Whoa, no Not again I'm half out of my mind Racing the clock again I always fall behind Can't escape my history But there's a better way to be Today's a good day to be alive Don't know what the problem was But I feel fine The clouds will blow away and the sun will shine Today's a good day to be alive Hey now what do you say Guess who's back in town Lookin just like you left Wearing nothing but a frown You can change your point of view But you know it's up to you Today's a good day to be alive Don't know what the problem was But I feel fine The clouds will blow away and the sun will shine Today's a good day to be alive Well now what do you know Surrounded by my friends Knowing you got my back The good time never ends I can keep on pushing through And it's all because of you Today's a good day to be alive Don't know what the problem was But I feel fine The clouds will blow away and the sun will shine Today's a good day to be alive

We're sitting in the middle of the street The umbrella keeps the rain from coming down on us Pop the cork and hear the bottle bang Don't you let the mirror get wet my dear Such a lucky twosome they are Such a happy couple today She says she likes the rain Sitting in our lovenest in a tree The branches let a little rain come down on us Bubbles in the glasses make me smile Don't you let the wind blow it away sweetheart Such a lucky twosome they are Such a happy couple today She says she likes the rain Ooh, oh oh She says she likes the rain And if the rain don't come down for a week or two You know the next time that I see her won't be too soon I'm gonna get down on my knees and pray For rain Lying together on the beach The raindrops feel good between the skin and sand The mirror is half buried on the shore I see the bottle bobbing 'tween the waves my dear Such a lucky twosome they are Such a happy couple today She says she likes the rain

about

Two new original songs for 2013, both rooted in the past. 'Today's A Good Day' originally tracked with my band Toy Box in 2007. 'She Likes The Rain', written by my good friend and songwriting partner Jerry Knight, originally recorded in 1982 with our band Minus One. Both songs revisited in the fall of 2013.

'Today's A Good Day' was written while out for a walk with our dog Riggs. Sunshine, fresh air, and a good companion helped to change a bad mood into deep breaths and a new melody. I took the basic tracks we'd laid down, and layered on some extra guitars, organ and vocals. No pretense of poetic or musical genius here, just a toe tapper you can sing along to.

I had already been thinking about recording a new version of 'She Likes The Rain' for some time when I heard that Jerry's mom Georgina was ill. She had been a loyal supporter of our original music all the way through, and I tracked the song thinking of her. I lovingly dedicate this recording to her memory. Aloha no, Tutu.
