easybeat, nice song, bounced along well, foot tapping. I liked the message in it. Good to see you back performing and writing. On a side note........I didn't hear any of the words suggested this month in the song.

neo, never heard of this song, so like TIG, I looked up the meaning of the song and yes is right with his comments on what the song is about. Interesting little song, it punched along with the strumming as you played it. The Reverb or echo mostly good, maybe a little over done in a few places?. I enjoyed listening to it.

Hi ficay, welcome and hope you enjoy your time here. AI is a very interesting area for everyone, in every area of life now it seems. I have mixed feelings about it I must admit. I can see the greatness of it, but I also like the originality of an artist creating from their own mind and abilities. I am not for it or against it. I AI is amazing what it can do and it certainly takes the hard work out of anything for people. But, the big BUT is for me, it is taking away the originality of any artistic field.

TIGLJK, that is a great song! So awesome you could fit so many of the words in. I like the whole story line to this, and I could visualize it very clearly from the way you wrote it. Love it

Re: January 2025 - Anything goes for FSOTM!!! (15 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
I'm thinking about doing this song at our next club meet - Louise, by Peter Siebel:
I know the Leo Kottke cover better (although it's not played like that). Anyway.
Enjoy!
Richard
Richard, I don't know this song, haven't heard it before. I went and had a listen to the original and had a look at the lyrics. Thanks for sharing, I have now learned something new (for me anyway). You performed it well.

Re: January 2025 - Anything goes for FSOTM!!! (15 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
It's just a loop practice to show the band. I pre recorded the loop and then played over it.If I was using it in solo performance I would let the sound guy control the guitar and backing level. It's all going through a Roland street cube in the vid, but I agree the guitar came out too loud
Nice cover Grah1, you performed it well. Guitar skills came through nicely on this one and it was easy to see you were really getting into it on this one.

This is a song on my CD that I had an animator add some visuals to:
Cheers
Richard
Richard, I enjoyed that, and the visual imagery definitely added to it. I liked the fast beat, nice for a change. I did struggle to hear the lyrics in parts of it.

Tig, I hadn't heard or listened to that one before. A bit of a hardcase for sure.

Re: Do you still call ... new song (6 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Richard, I like where your song is going. I am a Country and Western fan, so that immediately makes it likeable lol. Good question in the lyrics too, "do you still call an internet friend a friend".

Well, done Richard, it's always good to go along and perform for folks who are in homes. Great to see you supporting your mate with his song that he wrote.
A group of us used to perform every month at different Rest Homes for quite a few years up until covid hit. We used to do all the old songs they knew and could sing along too. They thoroughly enjoyed it, though we never used amps as quite a few folks wore hearing aids and the amplifiers hurt their ears with hearing aids, so we decided early on not to use them.

Re: Song called Empty Page (5 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Once again you nailed it TIGLJK, though I suspect in your case, you seldom have an empty page! You are blessed with the ability to write songs easily, effortlessly it seems and the flow of the ink onto paper never seems to be an issue for you. Well done

neophytte, that was a brilliant entry, really enjoyed listening and watching this one. The song really suited you vocally and the harmonica and auto harp are a great addition to the guitar. I agree, it has a folky feel to it. Thumbs up from me

Grah1 and neophytte, I just relistened to this song and I have to say it's a really great song. The lyrics Grah1 are well written and quite sad, kinda tug at the heart stuff, great job. neophytte, you really performed this one well, your vocals were spot on for this one as was the guitar, you performed it really well.
