Topic: Here I Stand now on soundcloud

Its a quick play through - messed up a couple times on lyrics and playing - but it'll have to do for now.

Nice Jim - I can imagine this played a bit harder - electric blues style.

Re: Here I Stand now on soundcloud

Thank you

I have played it like that -and I like it- but then with my crtappy recording system you can't hear me singing the lyrics. ( which actually might be a good thing now that I think about it!

Re: Here I Stand now on soundcloud

Jim, your song  resonates with me about needing that special someone to love. . For me it  makes me think of a younger me before I got together with my dear wife Maree . We  are coming up to in a few weeks time to 38years of marriage. When I was younger I was  one to let my soul roam free and wild. I use to  have trouble committing to jobs, to study, to women, There were times I would  settle down into something, then suddenly something inside of me would  itch making me want to change and move on. Normality and routine back then often made me depressed. The craving for freedom and adventure and wildness  would kick in and I would take of. It was both a blessing and a curse. Then in my mid to late twenties  my heart and soul got tired of being so damn unpredictable I wanted stability. I also realised I hadn’t been very  good to those girlfriends I had up until then with my lack of commitment. I changed as a person and became that person in your song looking for someone to make life right. Eventually I got there.
You have written another excellent song Jim.
Cheers
Pete
