Words And Music

Tony Funderburk Posted on August 12, 2012 by TonyFebruary 27, 2025

Word And Music = Travel When I was in school, I remember more than one teacher telling us students how reading could “transport you” to just about any place you wanna go. Word pictures…even those two words put together created word pictures in my head. I was hooked on words, on reading, on transporting myself to new places, new faces, new worlds. I became a … The rest of the story…

Singer Songwriter Says Smile

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 31, 2012 by TonyFebruary 27, 2025

It seems like, to be a popular singer songwriter these days, you gotta have a story of angst…or survival in the midst of seemingly insurmountable turmoil. Don’t get me wrong…I know the times they are a-ragin’. But I just don’t want to give in to the negative view…the doomsday naysay…no way. Whatever happened to “grin and bear it“? Or “let a smile be your … The rest of the story…

Lightning Love

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 25, 2012 by TonyFebruary 27, 2025

If You Were Struck By Lightning Love… Would It Be Good Or Bad? Well, in the case of my song it’s not such a good thing. If you’ve been following my blog lately, you’ve noticed I’ve been telling the story behind the lyrics to some of the songs on my free music player. Don’t go there and listen right now because I’m about to … The rest of the story…

In Your Dreams

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 19, 2012 by TonyJuly 27, 2024

You’ve probably heard someone say “in your dreams” when they think someone else has exaggerated something. Well, when I started writing the first song in my jazzy collection of lullaby songs “Lullabye Bye”, I wasn’t thinking of that expression at all…at least not for that reason. I’ve never had any kids, and some people might think that it would be odd for a childless … The rest of the story…

We do it all for love I was sitting by a lake, in Texas, after a very difficult day, when I wrote a song called, “All For Love”. It was a fall day…my favorite time of year no matter where I am…and the wind was blowing gently through my Toyota pickup window. I was enjoying a cold Pepsi and thinking back over the events … The rest of the story…

Cover Tunes of John, Paul, And Ray

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 17, 2012 by TonyJuly 4, 2023

Uh-huh…bet you thought I forgot the names of the Beatles, didn’t you?  🙂 Not at all. I just thought I’d share my demo video of me doing cover tunes of John Mellencamp, Paul McCartney, and Ray Charles, and here it is for your viewing enjoyment…I mean…you don’t have anything more fun to do…do you?

Island Day

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 13, 2012 by TonyFebruary 27, 2025

Back in the early part of the 21st century I was playing music full time in a swanky Bahama style restaurant”Bahama Breeze. One of the things I really enjoyed was watching the kids get out on the floor and dance to the music. Kids don’t really care all that much about lyrics, messages, and such. They just know the beat moves their feet. And when your feet … The rest of the story…

Crazy Mama’s So Mean

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 10, 2012 by TonyFebruary 27, 2025

Back in 2003 I wrote and produced some music for a corporation’s annual awards party. They were putting together a Mardi Gras theme and wanted some fun music to go along with it. Along with some “well-known” stuff they found, they thought two or three humorous and sardonic songs might be the ticket. So I wrote “Crazy Mama’s So Mean” about a fictitious woman … The rest of the story…

Hold On – gotta keep your dreams easy to see

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 9, 2012 by TonyJanuary 30, 2021
Hold on

Back in the late 80’s, when I was a full time traveling singer songwriter, I wrote a lot of songs in hotel and motel rooms. And then I’d do my best to set up my analog Yamaha four track recorder, keyboards, outboard drum & percussion machines, and microphone into a makeshift recording studio. That way I could hold on to songs till I was … The rest of the story…

Singer Songwriter Says See Ya Later

Tony Funderburk Posted on July 8, 2012 by TonyFebruary 27, 2025

Back in the late 80’s I was “on the road” as a singer songwriter full time. Well, let me backtrack just a bit. I’m also a native son of Colorado…born in Fitzsimmons Army Hospital in the Denver area. And after moving around…a lot…in my formative years I made it back to Colorado in my early twenties. It was on a vacation from my home, … The rest of the story…
