easybeat, that is a great poem right there.  Totally could visualize that whole scene and even the drawings to go with it.  Keep them coming and put them into a book.   Peatle love to see what sketches you have put together for these poems of easybeats.     

Peatle great to see you entering another song of yours.  The lyrics, "Seems like the world is broken", are thoughts many people around the world have been thinking these last few years. Good to see how you put this song together.  Always enjoy the videos you put together with your songs smile     

neophytte, I remember this song that you and Jai did, just as enjoyable to listen and watch this time too.  I loved the concentration on Jai`s face.  Though your son will be older now, I hope you both still get to jam together sometimes.  I know you did one with Jai playing piano when he was older, hope this keeps up with you two smile

Enjoyed this one Jeff, it bounced along and was a good foot tapper.     

Nice one TIGLJK, I had a listen and really like it.

NIce one Peatle, you seen to be playing your guitar with better movement, you were playing up and down the fret board and looked pain free?  Good topic, I think we all have those times and I for one, love to walk by the sea, go to the beach or go off walking in the woods.  Good soul food.

easybeat, I can totally visualise that one!  lol I think most of us could actually hahaha.  I must admit I hate getting new computer or cellphones or any gadget that I have to re-learn how to use.

TIGJLK, I like this one and found myself singing along with it.  Nice one.     

Grah1, nicely performed by you all.  Good to see your writing skills as well with this one.  You're all looking very relaxed and comfortable as you perform. 

TIGLJK, another nicely written song by you, I wish I had your talent to write songs so easily as it seems for you. 

neophytte, I agree with Peatle, you can certainly perform a variety of genre`s, a good skill to have.     

On another note, I haven't entered anything yet as I am getting over a cold which has had me coughing.  So hopefully I will be over it before this month's FSOTM ends.

Peatle, that song is very true of people in today's world, old and young.  I am amazed when I am out and about, I often see exactly this situation.  Kinda sad huh?   I especially hate to see this when people are out for dinner or something and they spend all their time on the phone, I think, why bother going out together if you're going to be on your phone.

Nice lyrics to this one Jim.  I like this one very much.  I couldn't find the original that you're talking about so couldnt compare the changes.  Are you going to perform it for us to hear?

Well done Peatle,  most of those BIG words I have never heard of big_smile   I think people make up words too, just need to look at the new words evolving these days from text messages, it can be a whole new lingo.

Big words, long words,
good words, curse words.
Shouting words, gentle words,
nice words, hurtful words.
Understandable words, indistinguishable words,
foreign words, jargon words.
Hopeful words, joyful words,
negative words, sad words.
Lost in words, forget your words,
memorable words, forgettable words.
Words unite us or words divide us,
words drive us or words stop us.
Words upset us, words encourage us,
words direct us, words connect us.

Thanks once again for helping out to set this up neo whilst I was busy and away, cheers.

This video is one of the gigs I did at Wanneroo Folk club, and starts with "Light my Fire" - which has the words "funeral pyre" in the second verse:

Good to hear the audience joining in with you in your first song Richard.  Always satisfying when the crowd does that, makes it all worthwhile.   Nice to hear your originals too.   That last song you definitely were getting into it, well done smile

I liked that one Peatle, very much how many of us were feeling re voting this year and who for this time around.  I could relate to your lyrics in this song.  I like how you put your thoughts to song.  Nicely done smile
