Yep know the feeling Grah ........ life gets busy sometime for sure ![]()
Ok...... I am in catch up mode with songs. I have put up my attempt at the song `Cloak of Invisibility`. It was a little bit of a rush job, so the beginning is a bit to fast and i did hit a bum note lol. Guitar playing not the best either but i enjoyed trying to play and sing this one. I like the meaning behind it. Wouldn't mind improving on this one when i get the time. https://soundcloud.com/ukulelejan/cover … visibility

Re: February 2017 FSOTM - Amie - Take me Home, Country Roads (40 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
Finally caught up with everyone's effort for February`s FSOTM and wow awesome efforts by everyone. I have left comments on soundcloud for you.
Rickyjack ......... so great to see you back performing. Your cover of `Amie` was so good, the harmonicia once again just adds to it, great guitar, vocals, the whole package, awesome!
BGD and Zurf .......` Country Road`..... great you two got together and sounds like your having a blast, just how music should be, fun and enjoyable. I found myself smiling all the way through listening to you both. Loved the fancy guitar bit at the end too.
BGD and Zurf .....`Amie` .... I sure wish i could play guitar like that! Great vocals there, i really enjoyed listening to this and was busily playing the drums on my desk along with you both.
Mojo01 ........`Amie` ...... Ditto to what the others said, great vocals and guitar, i really enjoyed listening to you.
Mojo01 .........`Country Road` ....... You sang this really well, played it well on guitar, great listening.
Roger ........... `Country Road` ...... this song really suited you and I liked how you put it all together musically as well as the video to go with it .... worked the whole package (even if the car is driving on the wrong side of the road lol)
Ok I think that is everyone, hope i haven`t missed anyone out.

Rgoer ..... on Mother ......... i liked how you performed this song and your arrangement of it.
Beamer ...... on Mother (Acoustic Version) ........I liked this version the best of your two versions, it suited your voice and it just worked ... PLUS i did hear and liked the added heart pulse and line at the end.
Beamer .... on MOther (Heavy) .... though i am not into heavy metal or heavy music, i expected it of you and you did it justice, well done.
Beamer great to see also you have commented on people`s versions of your songs....................... Grah wondering where your comments are and what your thinking of peoples versions of your song?

Topic: SUGGESTIONS: JANUARY 2017 FEATURED SONG OF THE MONTH (16 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
Ok everyone, for Suggested FSOM for January 2017 (can you believe it, nearly 2017 already!) we will be doing 2 songs once again.
FIRSTLY, we are looking for Suggestions from you the members, of any ORIGINAL SONG written by CHORDIE MEMBERS. Yes, that’s right, we want to hear YOUR suggestions of an Original Song that you think one of our members has written that would be great to perform. One that you think has potential, that you think is just different, that you think is particularly well written, that you just love everything about it, that you would like to listen to yourself or others performing. It can be for any reason!
You will find plenty of Original Songs from our talented Chordie Members if you visit the SONGWRITING THREAD here in the Forum. Just pop over there, have a look and see what songs you think you would like to suggest. Then come back here to this thread and put enter your suggestion. You can suggest more than one song if you like, you may have a few original songs you like or just can`t decide which one you fancy the most.
Towards the end of the month, we will put ALL suggestions INTO THE HAT and draw one out which will be ONE of the FSOM for January.
Have fun choosing and Suggesting an Original Song and we look forward to seeing what gets chosen.
SECONDLY, we the Moderators, are going to choose a Song from previously unchosen Suggested Songs. There are still so many good song suggestions from previous months, we thought we would pick a song from one of those. We will reveal towards the end of the month which one it will be.
So start making your suggestions.
