Couldn't get the photo to work, but the video was quite good!! Happy NGD!!!

I can't sing as well as I need to - to do your song justice, my brother, so until I get it right I will continue practicing it.
I always consider earlier stuff as "where they've come from" 
Then you can see if there's an improvement ...

In particular, it allows me to import material directly into Song Book which is the app I use on my phone and tablet and it also supports Chordpro which is a really bonus
That's what I do too; except with OnSong ... be interested to hear what you think of SongBook, as it was one of the apps I was looking at buying (and the price seems to have recently come down by almost half!!)

Looks a difficult song to play neo, up and down the fret board in parts. Well done for having a go at it.
Thanks - it's hard to get the timing right on the the descending part, and sing the words at the same time ... I kinda fumbled through it .... more practice required, but "time poor" at the moment ...
Cheers
Richard
Thank you both for the response .. seriously that riffstation app was sick! I really can't believe an app like that exist
No probs ...
Here is the try at the attempted stack
Nice!! Another 4x12 and you'll need to raise the roof

When I first saw the title- I thought it was an American thing - ias in - we took Manhattan from the Native Americans and then took Berlin from Hitler.
Nice Job Richard
Thanks
Pink Floyd Paint Box song made for you Richard I enjoyed it..
Cheers

Thanks
Excellent cover works well with your voice.
Thank you
I like the way TF has done it; I'm in a similar position, and playing guitar is in the same place - my average is about 1 to 2 hours per week, on a good week I might get 4 hours in, but that's about as high as the priority can go ...
But on the positive side, I try to organise my ppractice time, so I don't get too distracted; "these" are the songs I'll play (usually 4 or 5), "this" is how many times I'll practice it (usually 2), "this" is what I'll do once I've finished them (free time, songs I haven't tried, play some blues, etc) ...
HTH
Richard
Thanks for the comments - I kinda like the way this guy interpreted it on the songwriting forum:
Well, I thought a lot about the meaning of this song, and my conclusion is it has very little to do with terrorism, unless you call the music of Britney Spears and her kind terrorism (and I must admit I'm inclined to).
Link to the whole conversation, including other interpretations ...
Anyway, it just was a song on my list I hadn't done ...
Cheers

Here's Pink Floyds' Paintbox: https://youtu.be/2RoMHQ6s3s0

Enjoy!!

Good work, I picked up an old Marshall 4x12 for about the same price ... added some wheels, but found it was too big for me - sold it a couple of years later for about $300 ...
Hope you can see the image ...

Richard. It is a beautiful guitar but the post is a prelude to spam, I think. I may be wrong? You may want to buy a fire squirty thing from Spain, I don't know. But be assured, if and when they return to add spam they'll be gone!
Hope you're enjoying that beauty?
I thought it might be, but was giving them the benefit of doubt ... Yes, the guitar is my 'go to' when I'm in the study (which was previously a red Ibanez Artcore) - keep thinking I have to do a "blues by candlelight" like Beamer(?) did ...
Cheers
Richard
Nice!!
Thanks!

Don't put yourself down Richard, you did a great job and I'm chufft that a great musician like yourself took the time to expand and improve on one of my humble offerings.
Thanks for the kind words.
Cheers ... I meant you had better phrasing in the verses, mine was also a bit under rehearsed ..
Richard
A talented man. May he RIP.
It touched me deeply - my Mum passed away from Cancer about 15 years ago, it was a happy/sad time as I'd just started dating my (now) wife, and just recently I was contacted by our old neighbour (from when I was about between 5 and 12) asking after my Mum, and I had to tell her Mum had passed. Kinda touched a raw nerve ...
Richard
fine job there richard. the song and the summery background remind me of when we were in Perth (at this time of year) a few years back. thanks for posting the video
Thanks - it was actually (ironically) very cool and windy on the day I recorded it- whereas the day before was hot and summery ... but we are fortunate to get about 9 months of summer here
Cheers
Richard
Phill's version is here: https://www.chordie.com/forum/viewtopic … 57#p196457

I like this version better than mine .... !!
