This is the first time I've listened to a FSOTM it is a FSOTM? Isn't it? Very good hardly noticed the mistake but I did notice it's a little longer than the original not a bad thing as I've always felt it was too short. Congrats to you both

That's a cracker and also true, the next verse must be about Trump?
You're very brave if you went THBFLLLPTT in your wife's face, but you must have survived it as you wrote this?

DI= direct injection which basically means plugging your amp directly into your lap top or mixer but seeing as you're going the other way laptop to amp I would suggest using a USB interface where you plug from your LT to your interface using a USB cable and from there into your amp it should also give you a better sound. I use a Focusrite Scarlett or a Soundblaster. They're both small about book size and not over the top price wise.
The Soundblaster takes it's power from my laptop and I position it near my mixer amp. It sounds like you have some distance between both? Try positioning them closer.

It's hard to lose someone that meant so much to you and your family. My mother in law was very similar, she was brilliant 30 years ago but as she got older she got to be an sob especially to my wife. We still mourn her passing.

Condolences to you and your family.

i stand corrected. i thought raki was raki wherever it came from, now we know better. i hate aniseed anyway grape skins sound much better, cos i love grapes.

I once brought a bottle of Raki home from Turkey but my son decided to take it to a party at his mates house...he got legless, he was only 12 at the time. I think he learned his lesson? If I still had it I'd send it up to you. Have you tried Amazon? they seem to sell everything.

hey Jim. had a play through and the chords seem fine. unfortunately I've come down with a rather nasty throat infection and have difficulty speaking so no-can-sing at this time so I cant help with the flow. it looks good and keepitreal has a good point

Hi Richard. I just checked out your link to find that the AD pedal was discontinued. Shame it looks good.

Bluejeep, Beringer stuff is pretty good, but whatever you buy, with a sound hole pick up you are likely to get feed back, so be careful on your volume and amp placement.

nice bit of poetry there jim, reminiscent of the romantic poets.

you've asked for comments so i think i can help you out with a couple of lines.

in the 1st verse change smell to scent?
in the 2nd verse the 3rd line;
beautifully out of place she was?
change to; beautifully awkward out of place
gorgeous chaos full of grace.

i think it flows and rhymes better, but you know what is in your mind, only a suggestion my friend

Yeah. I used to play with a rock band. There was one place, I think it was called the 4 sevens in Maesteg South Wales. We'd be hammering out "Smoke on the Water" and this drunk would be singing "where's my trabone" ?????

Yep, played ten guitars more times than Engelbert Humperdinck not with the rock band though!

when i watched these clips i was laughing so loud i woke the wife up, it was 6.am! if you go on them check out the Billy Connolly clips.

my sister was a couple of years older than me (and still is, oddly enough) and after our bath, her first me after, my mother would put my basket chair on the living room table and sit me down while she dried me off and all the time singing nursery rhymes or pop songs of the day. I'm talking about the early 1950's. another memory was going across to the Gower coast and the first one to see the sea had to sing "I see the sea, the sea sees me under the shade of the old oak tree" etc. on the way home it was usually "I love to go a-wondering along the mountain track...." ah, the good old days
