A touching sad song Jim, but well written.     

Thanks for feedback neophytte, yeah that intro with the picking is the first time I have played it, I normally just strum the whole song, so still practicing when it comes to picking.     

lol Peatle, your mind is indeed interesting, it heads off in all directions, no matter what the topic.  I was sitting here chuckling as I read your very informative narrrative on the weather verses wether.  Oh the conversations you must have      

Wow, songs written about tough times in relationships are always sad, very sad but its also good to write those feelings down and express them and I think in song or poetry is a healthy way to help get emotions and feelings out and not keep them inside.  Well written Ctech.     

I loved that Brian, lol, it made me laugh and I had a smile on my face the whole time listening to that.  It kinda reminded me of Flight of the concords how they would talk between their songs and strum while talking and they would talk on any subject and make it funny.  You did that, I think you have found a new talent      

Ok here is my attempt at covering Ghost Riders in the Sky, copying Zurf this month.  https://soundcloud.com/ukulelejan/ghost-rider

Will attempt your song too TIGLJK, next on my list to try, but not promising I can do it either

Peatle, you can post as many as you like each month, no restrictions   I like the lyrics in this one, very contemplative, reflection, thoughtful.  Is that your good lady on piano?

zurf, for someone who has only played that song 3 or 4 times, your guitar playing on that was great.  I was intently listening to the guitar in particular as I liked the way you played it, the strumming and picking style.  Did I detect a nice little tap effect on the guitar as well?  Nicely done, makes me want to get my guitar out and dust it off again.   This is a song we used to play regularly at my first ukulele group I ever joined.     

easybeat, well if you don't know about your guitar skills the rest of us do, we can certainly hear it   I wish I could play like you and others on here.  Great thanks for posting the lyrics and it wasn't anything to do with poor singing, it was just a bit quieter in places so I couldn't hear the lyrics (probably my hearing lol)

Hey everyone, when you get a chance, I posted a rushed song last night for last months FSOTM for April, so when you get the time, have a listen.  As in the words of zurf, my apologies in advance to Elton John.
