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

jets60, agree with Peatle that is has a hoedown feel to this one smile  Agree with TIGLJK as well, maybe a litte bit too fast in places smile     

Hi Peatle, I was going to suggest maybe using a slide but then I see Phill already suggested that.   The only other thing apart from finger exercises would be trying some of the herbal products for arthritis.  Doterra is the best in my opinion, though expensive because they are 100% pure and natural.  A lot of the herbal stuff off the shelf these days, even from pharmacies, though herbal have synthetic stuff mixed in with them but doterra is completely natural and sourced from countries all over the world.  I love their products.  If you want to know more about their herbal products, flick me an email and I will dig out my book and see what they suggest for arthritis.     

neophytte, nice little switch with the lyrics in that line in this song.   It actually works better I thought swopping that line out (I went back and checked the original version).  Well done, the song as I said previously on the original version suits you and works well.  Nice one.     

neophytte, my feedback was for California Dreamin.    I didn't see Cheap wine so have just listened to that one.  A nice cover, you did it well and it suited you vocally and as always, played well.  The cat very chilled listening to you on the couch smile
