Jeff and I have been cooking this one for a while...since November! It was our post 5090 project that got kicked downstream as our lives got busy. I finally finished mixing it today.

The trees have nearly shed their leaves
As time marches on
Looking out at the early sunset
Those summer evenings gone
The days are growing shorter now
Like a candle at its end
Will the burning flame hold on awhile
Watch nature's path extend
November Nights
Change of seasons
Moving nearer
To mortality
November Nights
The rhymes, the reasons
See things clearer
Accepting reality
November Nights
Everything's ok
November Nights
It's the only way
As time makes its journey
And seasons come and go
I've learned to accept the flow of life
Allow the wind to blow
Sitting here by our cozy fire
In this chilly autumn weather
Taking stock of Spring and Summer
Too bad it's not forever
November Nights
Everything's ok
November Nights
It's the only way

What can’t you do!? Another awesome track (jerks!) lol fr tho, very cool, your vox are huge and I love the instrumentation. Very bittersweet. As a November baby I approve.
@jerrypettit Feb 2022
Ah...didn't know that you were the mixer/masterer on these tunes, Georgie. Really well done! I generally rave about your vocals, but now I have new appreciation for your "technical skills".
Very nice lyrics, @tjeff -- I hear your background vocals back there. Good job, you guys!
@davidtaro Feb 2022
Splendid production guys! Really strong hook on that November niiiiights. The harmonies sit really well, particularly when Jeff joins - your voices work beautifully - and they feel like they’ve been quite meticulously crafted with lots of clever counter melodies and stuff. I was, I’ll admit, mainly waiting for that solo to kick in (a song like this demands a solo!) and it didn’t disappoint. Nice one!
@gwyn1234 Feb 2022
Well worth the wait! Everything fits perfectly together on this great collab and prod!
@kahlo2013 Feb 2022
Yessss!!! This is really awesome - love the strong kick on this. Wonderful soft rock feel that is perfect for the images in the lyric.
@metalfoot Feb 2022
Yeah, very mid 70s rock feel to this song. Nice work, both of you!
@andrea Feb 2022
Very lovely feel in the lyrics and the music and vocals support the feel perfectly. I love the layers of vocals, and the guitar solo is sweet. Very Nice all around!

What a beautiful fully complete radio radio song to listen to. I love the harmonies and call and response on the chorus but more than that the whole song is just emotive and awe inspiring. Painting such beautiful imagery with the lyrics and Georgie's gorgeous voice, this is a winner for me. Well done guys and thank you
@zecoop Feb 2022
Seriously flashes back to big 70’s in so many great ways. Beautiful and full with a very natural flow that invites the audience to sing along. Well done top to bottom!
@richaaaay Feb 2022
I love how this starts with the big strumming of an acoustic guitar and the sparse drumming then that tasty organ…vocal delivery is great and the guitar solo is sweeeeet! Just an all around well produced musical collaboration.
@billwhite51 Feb 2022
music, lyrics, and performance recreate that mid-70''s feel when folk rock evolved into anthemic arena rock.
@headfirstonly Feb 2022
That growly organ sets the scene for this perfectly. And I'm always a sucker for a wall of acoustic guitars, too, because guitars. But wow, that harmony chorus; that's a fine hook!
I can hear why this has an "Eagles" tag...
