Thank you from all of us in REDHILL. We would like to thank our families and close friends for their continued support. God knows we sometimes drive you crazy with the demands of our passion for music. To our fans, present and future...you validate our efforts.

Julianne - I would like to thank my God, dad, mom, grandma , Brandon, Rachael, and Jessica, and all my family and friends who have given me wings to fly and for not taking the scissors out of my hands when I was running with them, Greg Michaels for creating such beautiful songs for me to sing, Jay, Jon, Andy and Mickey, Larry Garcia for being "Alex Trebek" with the answers to so many of my questions and being a great friend, detroitcountrymusic.com, Michael Hacala for being so helpful and supportive and his great photography, Mark Iannace for CD layout and artistic input, All the talented musicians in and around the greater Detroit area that we have come to know for support, All the radio stations that have had the fortitude to give our music airplay. Most of all, to all our fans...without you this CD is just another drink coaster. No regrets.

Greg Michaels - my mom and dad, Elmer and Henrietta for all their luv and encouragement...They never stopped in their support of my musical pursuits..no matter how misguided they might have seemed, thanks to Maureen for her support and understanding, to all my family and friends without whom none of this journey would matter.

Jay Fiondella - Thank you to my wife Michelle for putting up with my silly ass, to my family, Shane, Corin, and Tori. Thank you to my Uncle Mike for giving me passion and inspiration for playing the drums at such an early age, to my mom for exposing me to so much different music as a child...my dad(Bill) for not killing me for choosing to be a drummer, all my friends and family who have been supportive through the years. I thank God for my passion and a special thanks to Greg’s mom for sending the major baked goods to rehearsals...a drummer needs extra sugar and carbs to beat the skins and appropriate enthusiasm.

Jon Lenardon- Thank you to my Mom and Dad for letting my friends and I make all the noise in the basement so many years ago; my loving wife Noreen, for her support and help with the music; and for my beautiful daughter Annelisa for all her smiles.

Andy Quiton- Thank you to my wife Noël and to my boys Gavin and Logan for all your love and support, you are my life. And thanks to my mom for the music i hear in my head and the laughter that makes this all bearable. Thanks to God and my Guardian Angel.

Mickey Walsh - Thank you to my mom and dad, to Monika for the inspiration and making me a believer again, to Madisson, Toby, Sammy, and Maxie. To Denise, Forrest, Lauren, Danielle, and Lily. Debbie, Mark, Gavin, Owen, and Drake, Andy, Jeff, Marks, Michael and Brigitte, Shitheads, Steve Kovich, The Tom’s Oyster Bar gang, Bob and Karen, Paul, Freddie, Sting, Race, and the rest of the October band. Thanks to Yamaha Keyboards, Greg, Julianne, Jon, Andy and Jay for keeping it together. The extended REDHILL family for putting up with us. Renaissance dirt bags, CF, Greg Stryker (I owed you that), Gasoline Junkies. To the bands, artists, songwriters too numerous to mention that have guided me. To the fans...without you, there is no band...no music.

1. Thru Runnin' Round Play
Thru Runnin' Round
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

I’m tired of cryin’ over what u cannot give
I woke up this morning, said this ain’t no way to live
well I’m goin’ out tonight,gonna have some fun
I ain’t comin’ home til I come undun

and I don’t give a holler
over what u do
cause baby I’m thru runnin’ round with u

All my friends been tellin’ me ‘bout what a fool I’ve been
it’s the same old story, time and time again
well it may have taken awhile, but I finally saw the light
u can save all your sweet talk and all of your lies

and I don’t give a no how
if from now on you’ll be true
‘cause baby I’m thru runnin’ round with u

u think you’re the “end all” when you walk into the room
just one of your smiles makes the girls all swoon
will I’m giving you some news that hot of the racks
u can take your smile and press it up against my ass
cause I don’t give a damn if you find somebody new
cause baby I’m thru runnin’ round with u
Lyrics
2. Just Another Day Play
Just Another Day
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

Feelin’ kinda worn down still lyin’ face down
underneath the covers, I feel safe
but it’s alright here comes another day

woah, boss man’s callin’ my ass is haulin’
I’m into my car and I’m on my way
but it’s alright, it’s just another day

ain’t no rhyme, ain’t no reason
your best laid plans will soon be leavin’
u get what u get, out on this big highway
woah and it’s alright, it’s just another day

Sittin’ at my desk, oh my what a mess
gotta confess, I ain’t never made much headway
pile it on, it’s just another day

standin’ in the lunch line, ain’t got much time
wonderin’ why my behind is gettin’ bigger everyday
I’ll have a number 4, it’s just another day

well when did my life become such a fixture
something ain’t right with this big picture
but I still got a chance to get in on this parade
oh and it’s alright I got me another day

5 o’clock bell sounds, stuck in traffic homebound
I close my eyes and I’m on a beach someplace
oil me up Dirk, it’s just another day

well finally make it home, mailbox is overflowin’
with bills that always expect to get paid
well bring ‘em on, it’s just another day

oh if I said it once I said it a thousand times
this can’t be what the good lord had in mind
but it can change on a dime
u just gotta have a little faith
and if it’s alright (big guy?)
Can I get me another day
Lyrics
3. Coming Home Play
Coming Home
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

Hotel telephone light is flashing
I light a smoke and I think about crashing
but I get the message and it’s him
saying can u come home
can we try things once again

I must’ve played it a hundred times
every word of every line
ain’t life funny, ain’t life strange
Just when u think it can’t
the sun beats back the rain

And I’m coming home tonight
gonna grab my heart and hold on tight
and I thank god for this chance that he gave
and I swear, I’m comin’ home to stay

Been down this road many times before
wasn’t gonna take u there I swore
can’t believe u held on this long
u deserve some right for all the wrong
Lyrics
4. Let's Dance Play
Let's Dance
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

baby turn the lights down low
come here and hold me close
turn on the radio, play something soft and slow
something we can dance to, all night long
something to keep the world away

‘cause everything’s fine
as long as I’m holding you this way
c’mon take a chance

oh baby let’s dance
all our cares away
let’s dance
side by side we’ll sway
let’s dance

light a fire and pour the wine
take it slow ‘cause we got time
put your arms around my waist
pull me close, face to face

let the music carry us anywhere
let’s just wish the world away
everything’s right, here tonight
just tell me that you’ll stay

come on take a chance
oh baby, let’s dance
don’t it feel so fine
your eyes into mine
let’s dance
Lyrics
5. I Know Something's Wrong Play
I Know Something's Wrong
Music: Mickey Walsh, Lyrics: Julianne and Mickey Walsh

When I look at you all I see
is a stranger starin’ back at me
(We’ve) drifted so far from where we’ve been
I want to go back to the way we were back then

Was it something that I did, something that I said
can you tell me what’s inside your head?
You used to talk to me, and I was always there
I still am now, but you won’t let me near

I see that distant look in your eyes
I know there’s something wrong
I don’t think we can just let this slide
Cause I know there’s something wrong

Gave you my best, but my hands are tied
God knows you’ve pushed me in the corner tryin’
Is this the end? Give me the truth
Oh tell me can you feel it too?

Did we outgrow our love, or just drift apart?
Is this about another, or just a broken heart?
I want the magic back that we both felt inside
Baby open up to me, please don’t run and hide

Was it something that I did, something that I said?
Can you tell me what’s inside your head?
I want the magic back that we both felt inside
baby open up to me, please don’t run and hide

We gotta try again baby
we gotta give it one more time
baby don’t give up on us, baby don’t give up on us
I know we can work it out
Lyrics
6. Baby All I Need Play
Baby All I Need
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

Come on baby, drive me crazy
the way you always seem to do
‘cause I don’t need nothin’ but your good lovin’
now come and take away my blues

‘cause when I fall down, you pick me up
my river runs dry, you fill my cup
when my world comes in black and white
I know just where to turn to

Baby all I ever need is you

come on darlin’ here in my garden
you can rest your weary head
you won’t need nothin’ but my good lovin’
now come and lay down in my bed

when everything you feel is coming up cold
the brand new day starts out old
you’re feelin’ half the man you want to be
you know just where to come to

Baby all I ever need is you

come and hold me, soft then boldly
the way you swore you’d always do
I’ll take your sadness, everyday madness
and make it all feel good for you

come what may, come what might
the light of heaven or dark of night
I’ll be right there, wherever you go
forever I’ll be true

baby all I ever need is you
Lyrics
7. Rooftop Play
Rooftop
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

If I could be with anyone, tonight I’d be with u
and if I could go anywhere, I’d be on my way to u
but since I’m alone like the nights before
I climb these stairs and go thru that door
lay on this roof and count the stars
tonight this roof is where u are

and when the sun goes down
I hear that same old sound

on this rooftop tonight, I swear I see u like yesterday
on this rooftop tonight, all my cares just float away
and I feel ok yeah I feel alright
sitting on this rootop tonight

if I could take time and make it anything
I’d take every minute and spend them with u again
but since time does what it wants to do
there’s a place where I can go to
where everything is like before
it’s up these stairs and thru that door

and when the night falls down
u know where I’ll be found

when I’m up here everythings ok
ain’t nothin’ to bring me down
the world down there wears my soul away
always spinning round and round and round
Lyrics
8. I Can Make It Play
I Can Make It
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

You said you loved me then you said goodbye
now you come a knockin' both day and night
you can't see that I ain't the same
no I ain't that girl you left cryin' in the rain

No I can't deny, there were some long dark nights
but we all reap what we have sown
but I'm doin' ok, cause I know I can make it on my own

I saw you with your new hoochie mama
well have you introduced her to your headcase traumas?
I guess she'll find out soon enough
that your left is right and your down is up

I should have seen the signs, read between the lines
yeah I guess I should have known
but I'm doin' ok, cause I know I can make it on my own

I'll give credit where credit it due
cause I wouldn't be me if it wasn't for you
I found strength I didn't know I had
and there ain't no way I'm ever comin' back

so save your late night calls,
I've moved beyond these walls
and a house just ain't a home
but I'm doin' ok, cause I know
I can make it on my own
Lyrics
9. All Night Long Play
All Night Long
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

Well I picked up the telephone
to get my girls on the line
we’re gonna get out, head out
and have ourselves a real good time
with our red lipstick
and our high heeled shoes
all u guys better watch out
cause we’re headed straight for u

And we’re gonna do it all night long
dancin’ til the break of dawn
a girls gotta get out every now and then
yeah and we wanna have all kinds of fun
we’re gonna do it all night long
ain’t buyin’ a single drink
as long as there are men

we’ve been workin’ hard all week
actin’ all girl like, soft and sweet
but it’s Friday night and the gloves are comin’ off
we’re slippin’ on our airbrushed jeans
each one of us a beauty queen
we ain’t 21 but we still can walk that walk

Yeah and we’re gonna do it all night long
slow and steady fast then strong
a girl’s gotta get out every once in a while
and we wanna have all kinds of fun
and we’re gonna do it all night long
we’re all Cleopatras just dancin’ on down the Nile

Now don’t u go thinkin’
cause we’re carryin’ on and drinkin’
that we’re bad girls
we just wanna get away
from our everyday colored worlds
Lyrics
10. Another Broken Heart Play
Another Broken Heart
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

what do I do now baby
now that you’ve gone away
what do I do with all my time
what do I do with all I have to say

what do I do with these dreams
they’ve got no use for me
I think I’ll throw them to the wind
drop them in the deep blue sea

ooh falling fast, the rain keeps coming hard
look at me and what you’ll see is just another fool
with just another broken heart

where do I turn to honey
when this world wears on me
tell me where I lay my head
when my heart starts to bleed
Lyrics
11. How Do I Make Myself Stop Loving You Play
How Do I Make Myself Stop Loving You
Music & Lyrics: Julianne

You’ve got your suitcase by the door
It’s just sitting there on the floor
And waiting for that taxi seems like an eternity
All the papers have been signed
No don’t ask me if I’ve changed my mind
It’s all said and done, except for one little thing

How do I make myself stop loving you
How do I tell my heart that we’re through
I just can’t do what I don’t want to do
How do I make myself stop loving you

It’s too late to turn back now
I thought we’d get through anything somehow
but sometimes the end is just the end
Now we’ll go our separate ways
I think we’ve both seen better days
They say time’s the only thing
that can put us on the mend. But

Now it’s time for you to go
but there’s one thing I want you to know
I’d do it all again right up until this day
So I’ll put on my best smile
When your gone I’ll go cry for a while
I’m glad I had the chance to love you anyway
Lyrics
12. Cry Cry Cry Play
Cry Cry Cry
Music & Lyrics: Greg Michaels

Well I’m all ‘bout fed up with the way you been treatin’ me
and I’ve about had enough, I can’t take your misery
I ain’t sayin’ that you’re bad, but for me you ain’t been good
there’s one thing that you do well
it’s not doin’ what you should

and you’re gonna find somebody
who’ll do to you what you done
it’ll be your heart on the line
and you’ll find it ain’t much fun

and you’re gonna cry, cry, cry
all night long
yeah, you’re gonna cry, cry, cry

how’d I ever get caught up in this place you got me in
I though I was smarter than that
but I guess I gotta think again
so I’m movin’ on I’m headed out
you can’t say I didn’t put in my time
sooner or later you just figure out
you’re a little further behind

sooner or later we all get undone
we get done to the way we done
you can’t run
no you can’t hide and baby your time will come
