Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.
READY, SET, GO!!!
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.
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.
candy
children
cigarette
city
Tig, I hadn't heard or listened to that one before. A bit of a hardcase for sure.
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.
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 
Jim thank you for putting up a real good Christmas song. Merry Christmas peace and love to you all who read this. I will attach a video with some our local school kids having a bit of fun with music on a sunny day.

Merry Christmas to you too Peatle and thanks for the good wishes and word from you for Christmas and the New Year. Those kids were great, I love to see the young ones out there getting into music. Thanks for sharing that.
Here's a Christmas song I wrote.

Wow, wow, wow!!! Love this TIGLJK! That one is a keeper to add to anyone's list for Christmas. You have done yourself proud
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
good to see 2 songs already,ive been knocking out xmas songs this week too.but have put a couple of other new ones on soundcloud
so maybe i wont put a xmas song there.
but best of luck,look forward to hearing more xmas songs from you guys.
easybeat, pop the link on here for us for your Christmas songs
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.
Grah1 has an original song from back in 2022, here is the link if anyone would to cover it: https://www.chordie.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=38627
Here is neophytte covering Grah1`s original song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm6c9tsDFuY
Anything goes this MONTH of JANUARY to begin the NEW YEAR off with.
You can SUGGEST SONGS you like, or SONGS from any ARTIST you like. You can pick WORDS from the RANDOM WORD GENERATOR as some of you have used in the past. You can write an ORIGNAL and post the lyrics and chords for us to attempt
.

READY, SET, GO!!!
This song has the words: " ... huddled in caves from the rain ... "
Cheers
Richard
I haven't heard of this song before neo, first time I am hearing it. With that said, it suited your vocals well and you played it well too.
It`s that time of year again, DECEMBER 2024 FSOTM.
Looking for any songs for the CHRISTMAS SEASON, HOLIDAYS, SUMMER, WINTER, pretty much anything you can think of.
Once again, you can write, perform an ORIGINAL or you can perform a COVER of your favorite SONG.
Looking forward to what you all come up with.
READY, SET, GO!!!
Hmmm not much in the way of suggestions on here this time around, bit disappointing but BIG THANKS to Grah1 for your original song which I will post in December`s FSTOM for people to cover if they want. Thanks neo also for your cover you posted which I will also pop into Decembers FSOTM.
That was clever with the voice over bits Peatle, well done. I have mixed feelings about AI myself. I think I prefer the human touch and human thoughts, ideas with song writing and performance. Having said that, I think it is very clever what AI can do.
I did this quickly out the back yesterday, Here comes the rain again by The Eurythmics:
Enjoy!
Richard (the cat caught the fly!!)
lol good on the cat 
Now that is a song I haven't heard in a very long time. I have to say the guitar playing on this was great neophytte. Is that a different guitar?
Jandle wrote:neophytte, nicely performed on this cover. Interesting the effect to your vocals on this one, what program were you using on the vocals?
Thanks - depending where I was in my recording history (6 years ago), I either used the inbuilt effects of iMovie, or it might have been later when I switched over to using LogicX for the audio, then importing that into iMovie for the video editing.
Cheers
Richard
Ok thanks for that, I haven't used either of those, but always good to learn about programs like that.
Peatle, that's a good poem right there. I like how you have put that one together. I read through it a couple of times and it has some really good points in it.
Ryuusei, even if you feel like you are writing forcibly, the main thing is, you can write your thoughts down and express them so well. That doesn't come easily to everyone when it comes to writing
I am so sorry to hear the news about Dondra, Bills beloved wife and partner. I have fond memories of how Bill always said lovely things about his Dondra. My thoughts go out to Bill. I miss seeing Strummer Boy Bill on here, he always had great things to say, he was a great conversationalist on here and genuinely enjoyed chatting with all that came on here. I received a few emails and Christmas cards from Bill over the time I knew him on here and always enjoyed hearing from him. Much love and thoughts to you Bill and your family xx
