Nope I don`t read music at all when playing however I can work out the notes slowly at a snails pace if I had too.  It's interesting though because a group I am in that play at rest homes and retirement villages, some members can read music ... but one of them who reads music her timing is always out and quite often it is hard work learning new songs with her because she doesn't HEAR music only reads it.  Often it ruins the song we are learning or we have to spend ages learning it as she doesnt have an ear to hear how it should go.     

(Edited to fix typo on the word or by Jandle)

beamer, comments left for you in the songwriting thread.  Nicely written.

Roger, I attempted the song~ Love Is All~  Around but just couldn't do it justice at all!  I tried quite to record it a few times and just didn't sound right so I gave up, don`t think it suited my voice even with transposing the chords.    The other song I don`t know so didn't do it.     

beamer well written and great to see you and jets collaborating with songs.  I like this song and it was great to see you perform it on you tube.  You surprised me with your version too, guess I was expecting a heavier or metal touch to it from you so a surprise, nicely done.

jets, ditto to the collaborating with beamer as said above.  Liked the chords you put with it, it sounded great.  Your vocals sounded in parts a bit like Neil Young, hope that's a compliment as I like Neil Young and his music.     

Well done  Phill, I really enjoyed listening to it.  Great to see you performing on camera again too, good on you.     

Thanks songbook ............ very informative and you have put LOTS of work into it.  Thanks for sharing      

Nice one neophytte and great to see you  had a mate join in with you for this one.   Mixes it up and makes it interesting to see others as well.  Do you 2 play together often?  I think there is a 3rd "wanna be" that wants to be in the video performance as well  hahaha ....... maybe get your son to join in next time with a shaker or something lol      

Hmmmm beamer if your around here somewhere ...................... I challenge you to cover a Lullaby of your choice for next month

mojo01 ..... I challenge you to covering a song from a Musical 

TIGJLK .......... I challenge you to sing a Bob Dylan song of your choice 

haha good one easybeat     

Well written Phill, look forward to hearing this one      

Ok ....... here are some challenges for people from me and I am going to try and deliberately pick stuff I don`t think you would normally cover or something out of the ordinary if I can.
Lets see ......

neophytte  ....  An Original Song from any Chordie member.  You get to pick one from any of the talented song writers here in Chordie (just go to the song writing  section) and cover on of their songs in your own way

Roger Guppy  ...  A Heavy Metal number (of your choice).   I don't see you as a Heavy Metal musician (I might be wrong )............ so thats my challenge to you

easybeat   ...  A Cover of any of last months songs, performed by you as close as possible to the original cover, in other words, not making it your own version, or your own style

Ok ............ that will do for starters .........

Hi everyone, back from a holiday hence the late comments

Roger, wonderful cover on songs!  You sounded great vocally and musically.  You did a fantastic job putting them all together with the sound effects, instruments and loved the pictures as they flicked on through with both songs.  What a gorgeous dog and very lucky and blessed to have found you to live with and care for her      

NOTE:  If your having trouble finding these songs online,  I will ask Roger to post the the Chords to the Songs here for you if he is able or else you can contact him yourself as Roger has the chords for both songs   Sorry I am out of time to do this as I am heading away for a few days
