neophytte, nicely performed, a lovely song performed well by you.  Thumbs up from me
I performed this song about 6 years ago on Soundcloud, I was trying to play guitar 'again'.   I found when I sang this, I was so focused on the guitar playing and TRYING to get it right that my vocals weren't so good.  I need to get that guitar out again and dust it off.  Trouble is, I get frustrated with the guitar because I can`t seem to nail the F chord on it and I am useless at barr chords.

Thanks - it's possible to play the F in a 'cowboy' (or girl) position, with just your first three fingers:

Makes it easier sometimes ...

Cheers

maybe you are not old enough to understand this song.
trust me as you get older ,much of it is true.(something for you to look forward to?)

maybe ... the music club has mostly older (than me) people, and they keep saying the same thing ....

Anyway, this famous song has "brokenhearted people" in it:

Excellent entries by  both Richard and Brian this month That is a good Beatles song for you Richard. Brian your song had your wonderful  humour and it has catchy flow also.

Thanks for listening in! I was playing around with some "clip on" lenses for my phone, I might try the other one on a different video.

Cheers

Old Guys  using the word ``Old``

Great words in this one - old guys can't touch their toes - heh!! Good entry!!!

I thought the piano and vocals suited this song, can imagine it being played in a smoky bar late at night, with the overhead fan turning slowly as people muse their lives over a shooter of whiskey ....

Thanks, yes, one of my originals. Glad the balance was good, when I performed this song, the microphone was playing up, so had to stop and start again, so glad it got there in the end!!

The FSOTM doesn't close at the end of the month, so even if it's not available this month, look forward to hearing it!!!

Cheers

neophytte, that was great, I liked that one.  Is that one of your originals? Also, the balance was good on this one, i.e  your guitar playing didn't overrule your vocals, so it was easy to hear your vocals this time.  Nicely done.

Peatle, it wouldn't let me comment on Soundcloud for some reason.  Anyway, I remember this one of yours as I remember the piano playing in it which was great and really added to your song.  Great lyrics and message in this one, nicely done.  Was it your Marie playing piano?

How about a song about busses? The wheels on the bus....no I think we'll skip that one?
