Hopefully intelligent, upbeat, pop rock - plus multiple other genres and rabbit holes I enter
The band is ME - plus any collaborators I can convince to come along for the ride. I love the process of song writing and production - I hope some others get some enjoyments - or chuckles out of these tunes.

Story behind the song
This was composed for a Collaboration Contest on "The Muse's Muse" Songwriter Web Forum. Lyricist and composer were paired randomly and given a hook line "A hundred reasons" and one week, top to bottom.
Lyrics
A HUNDRED REASONS WHY 2009 Lyrics: Joan Kennedy, Music, Performance and Production: Ron Tintner Too many years ago I gave A hundred reasons why We could make this work If we gave it one more try The hour we leaned against your car Your bags piled high The saddest smile I'd ever seen was Swimming in your eyes I talked you back inside For one more ginger ale and rye Some awkward conversation And a hundred reasons why Now the years have worn us down. It's down to this goodbye I won't miss that weary Disappointment in your eyes I won't miss the many times We screamed until we cried Please don't say you'll stay in touch, Dont even say you'll try But honey, come back in For one last Ginger ale and rye Some awkward conversation And a hundred reasons why And if our paths should cross In some distant time and place You might keep on walking, Or you might slap my face; Or you might say... Honey, come on in For one more Ginger ale and rye Some awkward conversation And a hundred reasons why Yes honey, come inside For one more Ginger ale and rye Some awkward conversation And a hundred reasons why
