You nailed it once again Mojo ............. liked everything about this song ............. very catchy!

I agree with the above comments ........ this is the sort of song that should be heard .......... lyrics are great in this.  Nothing wrong with your voice, it is very easy to listen too and possibly your sounding a bit louder or clearer in this version because of audacity.  Hard to pick between the two versions, but  I do like the raw sound of the guitar on the other version better I think.

Congratulations Dino on winning November`s FSOTM.    I have just listened to the youtube link of this song as I didn`t know the song and I like it, good choice smile

BGD ......... awesome, really enjoyed your version of Ripple smile

Hi Peatle,

I have already left comments on this song on Sound Cloud and as I  am not a member of You Tube yet, I can`t leave comments on there.   So regarding the YT version,  I enjoyed the song, and like the lyrics and the art work is very good smile  .......... the only other comment I will add is the filming was it was a bit shaky and made viewing a bit difficult.   But otherwise, great to see you doing different stuff with your songs smile

Oops here is the link ...............

HI everyone ............. i have put up my very quick and to be honest, horrible version of TAKE IT EASY on Sound Cloud.  Literally tonight was the only chance i have had to try one of these two songs and as i don`t know Ripple that well, i thought i would try this one before heading away tomorrow for a week.  I truly struggled with this one as i have a very sore throat which has decided to come before i head away tomorrow (very annoying).  Anyway, at least I attempted one of them b4 i go ............see you when i get back.

Zurf .......woohoo looking forward to hearing it smile and i know what you mean ......... its  been really  busy here as well, just trying to find time to get these done myself ...... PLUS i have developed a sore tickly niggly throat, so hoping i am not come down the something.

rickyjack ............. i hear ya *nodding* ............. look forward to it when you do get time smile

dino48 .............. thought i would post this here rather than in the other thread, probably more suitable here in the chat section of Chordie smile

Anyway, in continuing our conversation about the ALL BLACKS ........... they played the Aussies last night and won 37 -10.   They dominated the first half, slackened of the beginning of the second half only to come back in full force the latter half.  Some great tackling, a fantastic charge down by Perenara and some excellent tries by Savea.

Tigljk .......... thanks, we did well busking $$$ wise but still going to busk a bit more to reach our target so we can buy ukuleles for kids in schools.  Considering we were busking in  amongst busy traffic and LOTS of buses, we didnt to do bad in the circumstances smile

Grah1 .........thanks and in answer to your question ........... probably a very LONG WAY off .......... we still have a lot of improvement to do yet ........... You will have to make to listening to the British Ukulele Orchestra smile

Keepitreal .............. one day when we perform without all the traffic distraction and with the girls permission, we might post something another time smile

dino48 ............... thanks ......... you must have been quick to see it smile

Peatle Jville ...................... haha yep you heard right, no doubt easybeat had sent you the video link smile  I think most of the people passing by  enjoyed it smile

Lastly, thanks to easybeat who came along and videoed us performing whilst busking.  I did ask easybeat to take it down though as we hadn`t asked the girls/ladies  permission to put it up on here and thought i should check with them first smile

Happy Birthday Russell,
another year, another muscle.
Hope your birthday is pleasant, 
with no kerfuffle,
lots of cake to guzzle,
maybe even some truffle,
(you know the kind a pig has had to snuffle).
Your age is a puzzle to us,
I say with a chuckle.

All the best on your birthday smile
