great stuff both of you,really enjoyed the vid.
keep them coming,seems very little interest from anyone else on chordie
but dont let that get to you,it is a reflection of others not of you.
it if counts for anything im very interested in listening to new music.
more please!

The Law Man
from the stage to the grave
as the wheels go round
clock strikes six
at the end of town
lawman walking with
arms at his side
hat pushed forward
from the sun he hide
sun now setting in the west
reflects from the star on his chest
throwing light
in the gun mans eyes
take every advantage
that a lawman can
risk his life for this town
something only a lawman understands
one shot rings out
one man goes down!

Just look out the window you`re looking at a song.

I love it Pete. You come up with some quirky stuff that everyone can identify to. I hate the plastic Pam's my self, if it ain't natural it ain't real!

Oh yea! Friends with benefits eh? An other relationship piece? I love the way you and Peatle can take everyday events and make them into enjoyable stories.
Well done Brian.

Yeah Phill,i don`t really like writing love type songs unless i can add a different perspective.
this was a conversation i had with the owner of a music shop,he said his girlfriend had got
a job elsewhere. they had played sport/ worked  /played in a band/ lived together.

Love and Space
I always thought my happiness
depended on you
but i was wrong
cause since you`ve gone
the suns still shining through
we`re still friends and lovers
but we both got
our own space and time
never thought i could
be this happy
when i`m not with you all the time
so come on over lets talk
about our different days
lets raise a glass of wine
and laugh about our different ways.
we`re still friends and lovers
with our own space and time

Lost my money to the state of taxes
i ignored all their phonecalls and faxes
i paid in the end
the money i send
two things that can`t be ignored
are death and taxes

great chorus tig,reckless/texas clever rhyme.     

thanks for your support guys,i`m not getting too carried away as these comp things are funny beasts.
but i do want to encourage the rest of you to put your music out in the world,you have nothing to lose.
why would you spend years building a boat and never put it in the water.!
i havent got a musical bone in my body, but somehow manage to muddle a song together.     

Hey Peatle many thanks for that,it`s been a crazy world the last year and me making the semis
just goes to show how crazy.
Im sure the other semis are beautifilly sung,brilliantly played,and probably fantastic production.
mine is just a basic stripped back honest simple song.

I agree with Phil that it sounds like you're having fun, but with the reverb I couldn't tell what you're singing about. Maybe my ears are just tuned to Appalachian foothill accents, sorry.

Ed
thanks for your comments,is the reverb too much?I`ve had this comment once before.But when i play it
back i dont hear much reverb at all.I do set a bit of reverb on my recorder but this is only to cover for
my not very good voice.I wonder if my kiwi accent has befumbled you also?
I`ll go listen to my stuff on another device,maybe that could be the problem ,me not hearing the reverb.
thanks again

Ha ha. I do love your word play.

Humour makes the world go round
And it stops you feeling down
So if a lift is what you need
humours better than smoking weed
