Topic: "Who Wants You Baby?"

Most of you know that I am a sucker for the slow songs, the romantic ones, the sad ones, so by way of a change I wrote this song. And look only 4 chords too.

I apologise for the rubbish lead guitar instrumental in advance as I know many of you could have done far better (but we all have to learn lol)

Re: "Who Wants You Baby?"

Does anyone else think that you sound like Aam Faith? He was a singer in the 50's and then turned actor in the 70's [that'll be the day?] good one keep the faith

phill cool

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Too cool, Roger!

Easy to play, a melody comes naturally. I like the lyrics, too. Nice, upbeat, but still a great, sappy, love song! smile

Bravo!

Nice to have a go at something different Roger,
As you say we all have to expand our horizons occasionally smile push the comfort zones so to speak.
Nice and up beat as Oldnewie says
Well done.

Re: "Who Wants You Baby?"

Thank you daddycool, Helena, Phill, Oldnewbie and Ark,

Phill, I think I would have to pronounce 'baby' differently to try to sound like the late, great Adam Faith, mind you since you have brought him up, I reckon this song would have suited him just fine. I enjoyed his performances as a singer and later as an actor, he was brilliant in 'Love Hurts' with Zoe Wanamaker, and met him in a restaurant once.

My musician friend Howard says I sound like Jon Anderson but I do not think I sound like either I think I just sound like me lol
