Hi jim. Love your verses but I don't get the first line of your chorus. And what are wowsers? I'm not being critical here just trying to understand what you're trying to say.

Your verses are so poetic and it's great how you transfer from she to you for the choruses. I havent tried playing it yet, still early morning.     

Thank you my brother from another mother, well translated there! It is actually closer than that as the boy lived next door to me and the family are all druggies. It is believed he was delivering some stuff when he hit the man who is not out of the woods just yet, so he could still be done for man slaughter or murder...? You wouldn't expect stuff like this to happen in this small town but drugs, taking and dealing are rife and the Uthorities do little or nothing about it but if you park on double yellow lines.....

Question: why do my replies to you always turn into sermons? Lol     

Cracker Jeff with some "interesting" rhymes.  I'll give it a listen later as I'm running out of battery. Ps, I prefer my apples fresh off the tree and pastry gives me heart burn, other than that great song.     

Jan I enjoyed both recordings. Stray cats was by a band called stray cats, coincidence?  Great rendition by the way. Yellow bird if I remember correctly was by MIcky and Griff?. The only part I thought was too high was the outro. I normally find that when I sing in the house I tend to restrict my voice so as not to cause neibours earache! Best way to record your voice is to stand up ànd forget the locals.

As for my recordings I play all the instruments my self, the horns are from the horn section on my keyboard. Thanks.     

Pedr it sounds really bad out there but it takes tragedy to formulate a brilliant piece of work like this. Well done and keep yourself and Maree  safe.     

Grah, I overworked my voice a few years back over a Christmas time doing 3_4 hour sets. By new year's eve my voice was just a croak by midnight and remained so for around three months! All I can tell you is water, salt, sugar and bicarb, gargle often. Keep away (ironically) from crisps and salty foods on gig nights and build up slowly, and keep away from Sweet Caroline lol     

Dear madisoncarr325 first off this is a music site for discussing music or playing musical instruments or writing song. It's not an information site for budding website builders. For that try searching "how to..." On Google.     

Jan, by adding an account; Jan1 and Jan2 you can keep both accounts going, just make sure you put the right link in when you offer your many fans to have a listen. I think there are some other sites similar to SoundCloud and YouTube I haven't bothered for so long I can't help with their address. Do a little search and let us know. I wonder if Per would or could create a music hosting site?     

Hi Jan, yes that would be great, chordies own recording web page! I don't post much to SoundCloud or YouTube these days as I don't get much, if any reactions. And as you say SoundCloud want money for holding your songs. I just get into my account and delete my older songs or the ones I don't like freeing up space to put newer ones in. Give that a try?     

Zurf, are you that character from Alison in wonderland?     

My favourite subject in school was history, but I think I got most of my education after I left and began working. Self educating and having informative discussions with friends and just about anyone with knowledge to share. To be honest I love the English language even though it's a mongrel language that is still developing as everything must or become "Latin" a dead language spoken by the educated few. I'm not over incensed by poetry even though I sometimes feel the need to scribble some verse. I'll let you know how I get on with your new opus. Farewell, live long and prosper.
