Re: Need Uke Players Input (13 replies, posted in Other string instruments)
Gidday Ed.
Yeah i play a bit of social uke.
I think a concert or even tenor size are better.
It`s more of an instrument less a toy.
most ukes are good but you get what u pay for.
i`d stay away from the cheapest ones though
as a beginners needs to have a fair shot @ learning.
If u buy a good uke @ least it is saleable later if
it gets grown out of or not used.

Great versions Ricky & Grah
my own opinion is that there are two types of covers.
covers are different to copies.
a copy is basically the same as the original.
a cover is where an artist adds their signature to the song.
You guys have delivered great covers.
thanks.EB

Here`s a song i just banged out,it`s about all kinds of artists
painting/music/performance etc.
About having doubts of your ability.I have spoken to many
people on this subject and it seems very common.
Good to see i`m not alone in this,how about you?

Peatle & Jan
Glad u liked this poem.
I`m not very keen on it myself.All that rhyming cheapens
the real sentiment.
This is quite different from my first write.
But hey, Chordians like a good rhyme.

Gidday Jan
not many chordians have taken you up on the idea.
Thats a shame as i think it`s a great idea challenging others to have a crack @ a nominated song.
So i`ve banged a version out.
It`s nothing like yours at all,i like to take a song somewhere else.
I did a kinda swamp rock feel to it

Cheap Thrills
Skill with ya hands
Will slowly disappear
Craftsmen and trades
No longer be here
Cheap imports have taken their toll
Loss of jobs.. shed of tear
Can`t be blamed for saving a buck
Replace ..not repair
Bottom line the sole requirement
Quality and craftmanship
Relegated to history
That`s just the way it goes
Don`t have to look far everyone knows
We are all guilty of this demise

Topic: Warmed Heart (1 replies, posted in Poems)
My type of songs are a bit weird for Chordie so i`ve posting them as poems, here`s another.
` Warmed Heart`
I saw that girl in town again today
Seen her round many times before
Often felt some sympathy for her
For it is obvious life
Has not been kind to her
But today when i saw her
My spirits got quite a lift
For there she was
Hand in hand with another
Hopefully found love
This prospect warmed my heart
There`s someone for everyone
