neophytte, that was a brilliant entry, really enjoyed listening and watching this one.  The song really suited you vocally and the harmonica and auto harp are a great addition to the guitar.  I agree, it has a folky feel to it.  Thumbs up from me smile

Grah1 and neophytte, I just relistened to this song and I have to say it's a really great song.  The lyrics Grah1 are well written and quite sad, kinda tug at the heart stuff, great job.  neophytte, you really performed this one well, your vocals were spot on for this one as was the guitar, you performed it really well.

I haven't heard of this song before neo, first time I am hearing it.   With that said, it suited your vocals well and you played it well too.

That was clever with the voice over bits Peatle, well done.  I have mixed feelings about AI myself.  I think I prefer the human touch and human thoughts, ideas with song writing and performance.  Having said that, I think it is very clever what AI can do.

lol good on the cat big_smile Now that is a song I haven't heard in a very long time.  I have to say the guitar playing on this was great neophytte.  Is that a different guitar?

neophytte, nicely performed on this cover.  Interesting the effect to your vocals on this one, what program were you using on the vocals?

Thanks - depending where I was in my recording history (6 years ago), I either used the inbuilt effects of iMovie, or it might have been later when I switched over to using LogicX for the audio, then importing that into iMovie for the video editing.

Cheers

Richard

Ok thanks for that, I haven't used either of those, but always good to learn about programs like that.

Peatle, that's a good poem right there.  I like how you have put that one together.  I read through it a couple of times and it has some really good points in it.

Ryuusei, even if you feel like you are writing forcibly, the main thing is, you can write your thoughts down and express them so well.   That doesn't come easily to everyone when it comes to writing smile

I am so sorry to hear the news about Dondra, Bills beloved wife and partner.  I have fond memories of how Bill always said lovely things about his Dondra.  My thoughts go out to Bill.  I miss seeing Strummer Boy Bill on here, he always had great things to say, he was a great conversationalist on here and genuinely enjoyed chatting with all that came on here.  I received a few emails and Christmas cards from Bill over the time I knew him on here and always enjoyed hearing from him.   Much love and thoughts to you Bill and your family xx

I am too young to join in this conversation bahaha, I wish big_smile   No in all honesty, I never was a writer, never even crossed my mind to write anything down other than back in the day of snail mail to family or friends and even that was occasionally, not a regular thing.  I never ever attempted to write a song until I joined Chordie and even then, it took me a while to write one, it just doesn't come that naturally to me.   I have only to this day actually written 3 completed and performed songs and another half song co-jointly with Peatle on one of his songs years ago that I added too.  A number of silly poems and that's about it from me writing wise.  So yes, I can say I have written more in my more mature years lol and it leaves me wondering, I wonder if I had tried when I was younger, would I have had more of a talent for it then? who knows ......

easybeat, well done on your original song.  Maybe a little repetitive on the line 'The Rain" on this one when I listened to it but just my opinion.  Guitar work awesome as always.

neophytte, nicely performed on this cover.  Interesting the effect to your vocals on this one, what program were you using on the vocals?

Phill, I didn't get any report and can`t see anything about it in the moderator's section either.  Was it an email?  And agree, I can`t see anything here that needs reporting on.

Well done neophytte, good you have your buddy playing along with you too.  Good message, I like the line "your chosing our fate" and your right, so many views on the politcal arena.

Peatle, good to hear that this guy and the people he works with, are still doing their art and trade mostly by their human hand and brain.
