Dark Desert Skies-an original song by Rory Noble
This one has been mostly finished for about 2 weeks. I'm not in love with the ending, so that may be reworked at some point, but overall, I'm pleased with how this came together. Sharon thinks it's a cowboy love song, which wasn't my original intent, but I think it does have that feel to it. And yes, three different choruses, something I've always wanted to try but have never managed to work into a song quite right. It's a long one. Feel free to comment.
Dark Desert Skies
(Verse 1)
We met out where the sagebrush grows. Firelight dancing, the warm wind blows. Your laughter poured like sweet red wine underneath the stars; a love divine.
(Verse 2)
We watched the sky, moon hanging low; radio whisp...

Tomorrow's Road: an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 50Месяц назад
I've written quite a bit over the course of my writing life about lost love, missed opportunities, and even some darker topics; you know, mostly sad things where my natural pessimism shines brightly through. With this song, I tried to go back to a time when we were all younger and had a more optimistic approach to our lives and our futures. I also wanted to add a bit of the anxiety that many of...
My Name is Freedom: an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 54Месяц назад
I've procrastinated enough so here is the first of my latest originals. Written over the course of October and early November, 2024. My most recent attempt at a "protest song." Also, the first time I've played around with the drop-D tuning on my guitar. I like the way the D-based chords gain more depth with this tuning. My Name is Freedom (Verse 1) When kings and queens ruled all from castles h...

The Song I Can't Remember-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 287 месяцев назад
My newest composition. The chorus was the fist thing that came to me. I wanted to write a seasonal "story" of a long-forgotten love and relate that to the idea that we all have missing memories of people and songs from when we were younger. The versus went through a great deal of change over the past couple of months as I tweaked things here and there. The Song I Can't Remember You're The Song ...
The Music Inside-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 297 месяцев назад
This was written in late autumn of 2023. Just a simple thought about all of us having some kind of music inside that we can take comfort in when we need comfort. Everybody has a song to sing, whether they share it with others or just keep it to themselves. The Music Inside Listen, to The Music Inside. Sing out, don't let the music die. We all have a story to share. Reach out, the music's always...
Just Too Many People-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 147 месяцев назад
This song was included in another video on the channel where I performed 6 of my original songs. I am very fond of these lyrics and wanted to include the song again by itself. This may be the closest I get to a "protest" song. Just Too Many People There are Just Too Many People living in the street, wearing tattered jackets; worn out shoes upon their feet. There are Just Too Many People turning...
But I Won't Last a Day Without You-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 157 месяцев назад
This song (mainly the first verse) has been with me for a LONG time. I probably wrote it when I was 13 or 14. The remaining verses, if there indeed were any, were lost in the depths of my brain long ago. I have several others like this that I am trying to resurrect. But I Won't Last a Day Without You I can laugh but laughin' don't help the state I'm in. I can cry but cryin' is just a sin. I can...
Put Out to Pasture-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 81Год назад
On my regular walking path I often pass a horse in his little fenced in area. I have always been intrigued by the idea of animals and their thought process. Do horses "know" when they've exceeded their usefulness and been "put out to pasture?" People sure seem to understand the concept, so I wanted to put together something about a horse's thoughts and a human's thoughts on basically being left...

Twenty Stairs-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 35Год назад
This is probably my best song lyrically I have written, and I still think it's a bit weak in places. Still, it is a very personal song to me and reflects a bit on my life and my relationship with my wife, Sharon. He climbed the Twenty Stairs and found his way to bed, She curled up by his side; he gently kissed her head. He'd lived his life alone for nearly forty years, She'd gently touched his ...
My Best Friend's a Bottle-an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 19Год назад
The first verse has been rattling around in my brain for quite some time. I wanted to write one of those "change up" songs: something people would think was going to be one thing but turns out to be another. I also wanted to do a "happy sounding drunk" song. I think I managed both. NOTE: Before anyone starts to get all "you shouldn't make fun of alcoholism, etc, etc" please be aware that I myse...
Sunny Sunday (an original song by Rory Noble)
Просмотров 49Год назад
My most recent writing goal has been achieved: write a song with my ukulele. The song has been brewing for a couple of weeks and was originally inspired by the thought of sitting in the park listening to the live music on Sundays throughout most of the summer. I always envision ukulele songs to be something light, kind of fun, and easy to listen to. No protest songs or heavy lyrics, although th...
"This Old Man" an original song by Rory Noble
Просмотров 115Год назад
For the last 20 or so years, I have had the opportunity to work with and around many people much younger than myself. I went back to college in 2011 and the young age of 52. Many of the "kids" lovingly called me "Old Man." Some others used it as a disrespectful term. Many of the former would ask me for advice about certain things going on in their lives. Some of the latter would just shut me do...

Silent Night-A video test run with the ukulele
Happy to hear your new sad song.
22:22 I’m getting tears on my guitar about here.
I mentioned to you that this is the song that gives me goosebumps. Very deeply personal even though part of the story (for me) has yet to be written.
Would you want to work on getting this (and several others) recorded onto CD for the Baker Bandwagon show?
I've been working through some ideas in my head about recording my songs. Definitely something I would like to do if the opportunity presents itself.

We all have so much music to share. Let’s get to it my friend. Love this one…❤️
I’m glad you remembered to share this with us!
I like this one Rory. Hope you will play this for the jam group.
awh man sad song, so good though! 😢👏
Well done Mr. Nobel!!!
Muito bom! Ótima música . Parabéns!
A good tune. I found the lyrics moving and kept me waiting for what you had to say next. They told a very clear and meaningful story and did exactly what good lyrics should do. And the melody was effective in its simplicity at helping convey the message of your song. Well done.
Well done Rory! Good message for all of us. MC
