Ctech you have a real good singing voice and passion in it come through real good. Great song with the singing and musical arrangement bang on. It is a song that I think works well in this modern era and I could imagine my nieces would love it. It has the potential to win song competitions and awards.     

Neo Happy New Year great to see you back on here and thank you for your encouraging comment.  Phill wrote a good song which inspired me to make the video.     

Jim and Phill I thought that collaboration worked well. I couldn't fault video or song.     

I like that song and so  true the lyrics in your song  life is long and time is short.

Eb my friend Adam from the USA has lived here for just over ten years is still getting use to our accents. he tells me when I say road it sounds like rowed. Good fun song you did there.

Good subject Phill to write about and I like the way you wrote it. Sexual, verbal and physical abuse and the damage it has done to people is a world wide problem that for many years has been hidden but has started to be exposed more and talked about more.     

Ctech real good  lyrics and backing track  has an interesting updated  ye  olde english  sound to me, but  I am not sure how it would fit into your lyrics but it is still good.
Happy New  Year  to you and your family and good to see you back here on Chordie.     

Cheers Phill and Jim thank you for your kind comments  a great way to start the year. After reading Phills  lyrics to Searchin' on chordie  the video idea popped into my head. I sent Phill  some of  my video ideas when  he reluctantly agreed to forward to me his demo . When he emailed  me him doing a demo of it which he wasn’t  completely happy with I eagerly started  the process of putting a video together. The synergy  with the interaction of his song and my video felt good.  Our two inputs combined produced a total effect that was greater than the sum of the individual elements. The song needed the video and the video needed the song. When I emailed him with the finished result I felt a bit apprehensive thinking maybe he wouldn’t like it. Thankfully he did like the outcome. I was very pleased and thankful to Phill for allowing me to make this video. Special thanks to Cuba Mall Dancers  Wellington for being in this video.

Ken and Jim that is an excellent collaboration   Poems can become songs and songs can become poems.     

Phill, Jack and Vera were great characters. Back in the late 60's -70s  when there was only one TV channel here people use to talk about Coro as though it was real life.   I knew two old ladies who fell out because one loved Ena Sharples and the other hated her. Peter Adamson who played Leonard Fairclough  was brought out here by a company I worked for to do a months residency at a flash restaurant cabaret  called the Beefeater Arms. He was trying to be a singer entertainer but even though he could act his singing wasn't  up to much. The first week his show was full house but word got around how bad it was hardly anyone one went. They got him a spot on a daytime TV show here he insisted on not being interviewed unless they let him sing a song which he did real bad not a smart move on his part. He had some other gigs on the books but they were canned. Another one who was out here was the lady who played Else Tanner her stage shows went down good and were all sold out with good reviews. The woman that played Stan and  Hilda Ogden's daughter Irma  ( Sandra Gough )   lived in Wellington for a while and was married to a local man very briefly. They split and she left town.

Jim you are a craftsman with words I love those lyrics.  The chorus also is perfect. That is worth an A+

such is the fate of those with wretched lives
hopelessly waiting for their ships to arrive
too scared to be bold, and face the cruel facts
and haunted by visions of what their lives lack
