That was Great Jan !
One of my favorite songs to play.
If I was doing a gig - It would be on my playlist.
Your voice is superb - excellent version

Got it now - what a beautiful guitar.  I would love one, but  way ut of my price range. If I had the skills of some the players on here I might consider it, but with my playing ability it would be a poor investment.

Thanks for showing this Russell - and many happy hours of playing this beauty!

Real Nice Russ

Here is a link to  demo - might answer questions on the S1

If I could play like this player - I'd own one for sure.

If I was 30 years younger I'd want to be sitting on the couch with her - forget the guitar!

Good one CG - That is a classic song     

I have two blocks that stand out -   
1) My right hand
2) My left hand

In teaching full time, being the athletic director, coaching three varsity sports - my schedule is pretty tight -
My priorities are
1) My Family - then whatever else comes my way.
Guitar playing is way down the list because - mainly I stink at it !

I only really play because it is my avenue to writing which is my release time and my sanctuary away from everything that bothers me.
I leave the playing and singing of my songs to my friends ( where the real talent is)  here on Chordie.

Great topic Bill

Thank you,
   Jim     

Nice one Richard
That is quite a song with many interpretations... Cohen had a great line when he was asked bout it's meaning  -
he said
"Every succeeding moment changes what has happened the moment before.
In the stream of writing, all that is written changes its meanings by what occurs and what  is written subsequently."

I think this is quite true - many times a song that we have listened to dozens of times and believe it means one thing, then something happens and it takes on a whole new meaning though the lyrics remain intact and is sung exactly the same way.

You did a superb job on this!

That picture is awesome.
All those great amps and speakers you folks have sound amazing.

I have a Marshall and a Fender Frontman - both are plenty for me  anything bigger and my wife would put me out in the barn     

OMG

One of my favorite entertainers. I used to love to watch him on the TV Show Hee Haw

We lost another great one !

Ditto what CG and Peatle stated.

you should post the lyrics.
I could tell by your smile when you reached to turn off the recorder that you knew you nailed it !

VERY NICE !

Well written Jan

I myself am struggling today as my brother passed away yesterday - blood clots and lung cancer.

Many people fighting brave battles but falling to this treacherous foe of Cancer

"Christmas Day is celebrated in countries all over the world as a great feast and holiday, many of which are mostly non-Christian. In some non-Christian areas led"

I Believe this is what it says or something close     

Phill - after listening to this a 4th and 5th time - I have really come to like this song - it is really, really good !

At least two or three times during the song I got a little whisp of David Bowie in there. 

If I were to be critical at all ( and I have absolutely no credentials to actually be critical)  I think the end of the song last two lines - where you go " mmmm - mmm"it sounded a little more "gruntish" than I would expect - kinda sounded grumpy  or mad -.... I was thinking it should be a little more like "woo hoo" or something -  a little more upbeat - excited about that that girl. ( although it is possible that you were emphasizing the fact that she was gone- I don't know!    )
Again, other than that - I thought this was a masterpiece  !!!

Thanks Phil.

Jim
