Plain

Since the turn of the century Todd Corcoran has quietly been making his own uniquely astounding music with an unparalleled mixture of natural talent, creativity and unyielding discipline rarely, if ever, realized on such a level before. To the casual listener Todd makes his music seem so simple, just another guy playing a guitar, but to anyone who has ever tried to play and sing his music my choice of a word like “unparalleled” in the previous sentence could never in any way be interpreted as any form of hyperbole. Although the technically unbelievable feats that Todd accomplishes as a singer/songwriter may seem to be more than enough to capture one's attention, his true and substantial merit as a musician lies much deeper in the fire and soul of which he routinely composes and performs. There is just something wonderful about the sound of a singer with a single, nylon stringed guitar. Just as there is also something wonderful about Todd Corcoran's latest gift to the world of music: Plain. From “Come Back to Me” through “Wendy's Garden” may you rejoice in the wonder over and over again for years to come.

1. COME BACK TO ME (2'50)

come back to me

the sounds of the trees

the trees that edged those faultless streets

wrapped in shade

i would sleep

often i think of youth

and my youth comes back to me

running only to run

stumbling upon real love

but it's strange

how all that has remained

has changed

come back to me

where my heart still beats

where my heart breaks

where i am afraid

come back to me

come back

come back

to me

in this lonesome anxious world

i can find

i can find a way

between those who pretend and hate

i can find a way

i can find a way

and i'm doing okay

i'm gonna be just fine

we all get one life

and i'm living mine

in the plight of the whistling winds

i can hear

i can hear a name

between whistlings i hear a sound

very low

very low but loud

and i'm doing okay

i'm gonna be just fine

we all get one life

and i'm living mine
