Re: new song : MY WORLD

Great song TIG. Personally thats how I like my music,  just raw and unpolished.
A word about the dog. Do you think perhaps he was trying to get in on backing vocals?

Sad song, TIG. People who have experienced this kind of hurt will surely relate, and you've expressed those feelings very well.

Re: new song : MY WORLD

Graham, TF, Phill, Jan,and KIR - Thank you so much  for the kind words .
It is a very emotional song, I literally get lost in the scenes in my head when I close my eyes and play it.
Phill did a beautiful cover of it as well which I posted in a thread on My local Band and me.
Keep it Real - about the 2:55 mark you can hear her shake her head and her tags on her collar sound like a little tambourine background. smile

Jim you have writen another song with emotional substance and the Phill version with the strings brings it to life in a way that impacts on me even stronger.
