Richard and Jai you work real good together.     

Jeff another brilliant song about the human condition, written  by you which many will hear and say to themselves this is me sometimes.

Thank you Piri my brawd I like your words.

            Just thinking about Glastonbury and Kiwi weather.

The sun shines bright on the Glastonbury crowd .

Singing lyrics written by the band  on stage about a deluge in a cup.

Meanwhile  down in the south Pacific people are dreaming is the rain over.

While watching on YouTube, Crowded House singing “Don’t Dream Its Over” on a hot Glastonbury stage.

Later on in the hot Glastonbury evening a Wings  song from that cool Beatle, Paul, that can’t deliver the excited crowd from the heat.

Elijah and Moses had that power to stop the rain but not everyday people opps no Sly And Family Stone playing there.

Are these lyrics of yours Paul about the weather,  "Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun."

There he is outside singing stuck inside these four walls.

Hey Sir Paul that’s me down here, not you up there .

I’m just waiting for the rain to stop .

Then I will go out for my walk and maybe pass a band on the run in the street.

In the mean time I might check out chordie and see if anyone has taken a sad song and made it better.

Cheers Jan thank you for letting me have a shot at FSOM. I am not up to much playing music as it gets painful for me to play piano and guitar Ive more of less had to give it away. Just playing simple open chords on the guitar like G C D are a struggle for me at the moment. Fortunately I have other things that keep me busy and happy.     

Thank you EB. This winter weather seems to be encouraging a bit of pen to paper.     

That rocks along real good Jeff.     

Richard that song suits your style of singing and playing perfectly.     

Jim this song is something special.     

Jim that is a beautiful tribute to your Mum. A lady who nurtured and inspired 10 children to grow up and bravely face and contribute to the world in good and meaningful ways. Here in New Zealand we talk about standing on the shoulders of those who have inspired us to improve the foundations they have made for us. Your beautiful mother lifting your spirits up into the sky through you to your children and with ten children there must be many descendants who have benefited through this legacy. I hope this song will be passed on through generations to come. A truly beautiful song.     

Good one Mojo.     

Hi Jan and Chordie,

Sunday here and after a busy morning out I came home and as it is the day of the week I usually meet up with Easybeat and a few others in the late afternoon between 4 and 6, I thought I better check out chordie. Me and EB always like to have a quick chat about chordie in the course of our Sunday afternoon meet ups. With a lot of things happening in my life at the moment  I haven’t looked into chordie at all for a while now. On the few times recently I have it has been like visiting a dead end street. Today when I clicked into chordie and  FSOTM I was pleasantly surprised. Chordie Street is no longer a dead end road but a street that leads into a musical highway. Good on all you champions of chordie for putting up your posts and musical contributions. Thank you Jan for coming back to chordie and connecting Chordie St to Jan Avenue which leads us to the global musical highway with your manaakitanga (caring attitude) and aroha (compassion). So rather than acknowledge each post I have just looked at now individually I hope you all on here  accept this as a thumbs up and thank you for all your contributions. Also thank you to those I connect with on here in other ways on the internet. He aha te mea nui o te ao, he tangata he tangata he tangata. The meaning of these words an old New Zealand  proverb roughly translates as What is the most important thing in the world, it is the people, the people, the people.
Thank you
Pete

Thank you Jim . I have never been a Gin or Bloody Mary drinker but I enjoy sometimes a Virgin Mary  basically a Bloody Mary without the gin, with a bit of pepper, Wostershire sauce  and drop of Tabasco sauce.  Gin has an interesting history in London I will attach a short video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lrZlEvQpIM
