Thank you Bill if I was a young man again I would be calling on your drumming services.I enjoyed playing that video Bill,I love the Who. That song is relevant today as when it came out.  I met Roger Daltry  briefly  the singer from the Who once over in London he was a genuine down to earth nice guy. He  does alot  of work for good causes. Another one of my music heros Peter Green who was a wonderful Blues guitarist I use to see around alot when I was over in  Richmond, London. Unfortunately too many drugs had affected Peters mental state. Our friend Chris was playing bass for him in the recording studio unfortunately the project wasn't finished as Peters mental state deterioratied so they couldnt complete the project. Peter has started playing a bit again he has some stuff up on youtube and his time with Fleetwood Mac is well documented..

Here in NZ I have been watching the Olympics on a free to air channel as I dont have pay channels. Watching NZ Womans Football team playing Columbia one nill to NZ at moment. I suppose Bill will be following the cyclists with interest. Maybe one day we will have guitar picking as sport at the Olympics.

That is a song me and Easybeat sang as teenagers walking around our local area late at night. We always enjoyed trying to sing a song or two when our throats were lubricated after a beer or two. We had some very easy going friend's perants who were would indulge our  teenage attempts  at party singing.

Thank you Bill you make my day a good one.

Cheers Dino below is a link to my soundcloud stuff if you ever want to have listen. I like your flag idea. May be one day someone clever on here will design a Chordie flag. Maybe one of those thread things. I get a bit lost  on things computer and technical. I suspect out there in the Chordie world  we have some clever people at design.

My mission I guess is to try make the ability to put music out simple and not at big expense.

I salute our moderators for all their good work to keep Chordie Land  the place to be.
Letting our voices and music ring with pride.
As we hail from far and wide.
Together they help us unite and defend the cause of freedom.

I was wondering has anyone designed a flag for Chordie Land????

Cheers Dino I have some song writing attempts up on soundcloud under Peatle Jville,  My voice and playing is not the best. So on here I tend to stick to the poem section. Also as I like to play by feel I'm not much of a person  for writing down music. My music theory understanding  is very basic Though I do get  other people sometimes to do my playing such as my wife on piano and had others do a bit on other instruments. Performing is not my passion. Of course it goes without saying I am part of the Strummer Bill fan club. Hope they make Him President of the USA I couldnt think of a better first Lady then Dondra.

Chordie Town aint the same when Bill and Lady Dondra are not around. Hurry and get that next stagecoach back to town.

Your song makes perfect sense it also works well with your style of playing and singing.

Amy you are a talented writer your song was one of those meant to be songs, perfectly written and delivered from the heart. Reading the comments above shows you have touched others hearts with your song also. Having the right words or songs at times of grief can be hard. I believe on this occasion this song was placed in your heart for the appropriate moment.
I always say Life, Death and the Universe must eventually make some form of sense. Because these things are bigger than us doesnt mean it should defeat us but instead it  keeps us searching for answers. When my father died suddenly aged 39 my youngest brother was 3 years old going on to 4 years in a months time. I remember him saying to me on the night after my father died dont worry  look at the moon and Daddy will be up there. Even though I dont believe he is up in the moon I have ever since then felt a warm  comfort when I look at the moon and the stars believing my father and other dear ones who have passed on have gone to a better place. Also I appreciate every day knowing our time is limited in this life. Without forcing my beliefs on people I am from the heaven and hell way of thinking and with that in mind I try and live a good life.
Thank you for sending out your song into the world.
