Hello everyone,
What does "Bridge" mean when you come across it in a song?

LOL nice one Dave, needed a laugh x

Wow only back on line now after computer crashing seriously last night.
Think there is something major going on here, and the only answer is to take it to someone who knows, could be the sound card Dave, might well have jolted, but wouldn't know one if I saw one, lol. Oh running XP by the way.
Tell you something tho, it seems to run particularly badly when I have MSN running, which I mostly do, and a couple of friends who have tried to e mail my hotmail addy lately have had the e mails returned.
I think this is a job for the professionals. Da da da da daaaaaaaa!!!!

Really appreciate all your help, thought it might have been something really simple, that is infact really complicated when you don't have a clue, if you know what I mean.
Cheers x

Thanx Ark, yep no mute boxes crossed, and all set to high volume. Oh dear.
Wondering whether I might have a virus now, comp has been running really badly today, will run virus scan and see what that brings up. Cheers.

Thanx Roger, but don't have that icon....mmmmm

Hi Guys and Dolls
This is kinda connected to Chordie, coz without sound I can't check out the tunes I wanna play on youtube. Or that's my excuse anyway. Lol
Yep can anyone give me some idea, sound has gone, working a few hrs ago, haven't done anything, but then the kids have been on. The light is on on the speaker, and the connections into the back are still connected, have checked out Control Panel, and volume is on High. Am I missing something. Bl***y computers.
Any help much appreciated.

Hi Dave, haven't heard the whole album, just a couple of tracks, but love her, she's great.
Made it at 19, wow, I think a long musical career ahead for her.

Brilliant song,
But I remember listening to this before 1987, probably early 80's, travelling around Wales in my Morris Traveller, those were the days...........

It's not where you go when you die,
it's how you live when you're alive,
who you  touch, and how you feel it.
And its not about the time that you have,
its how you cry, and how you laugh,
who you love, and how you mean it.
And do you mean it.    Jack Savoretti.....Dr Frankenstein.

I love quotations and sayings and have a book full that I have collected, the above words from Jack S song tho I think are really beautiful. He's great, my latest hero, check him out.
Impossible to find chords for his songs tho'.

Hi everyone, I want to do some recording of my own songs, I don't have any equipment apart from my voice, guitar and my computer.
Really don't know how to get started on this, thought about going down to Argos and buying a cheap desktop microphone for a tenner, will this do?
Yeh, so basically looking to record to post onto FOC. Don't need anything too fancy or complicated.
Also don't have much cash......
all help will be gratefully received

Hello everyone, here's a little song I put together over the last few days, hope you like it......

thro my eyesby, boxer


[G][D][C][G][D][C]




[G] the moon she's sending [D] beams down thro the [C] clouds,


gent-[G]lycarressing [D] ripples on the [C] lake.


the [G] trees whispering our [D] secrets thro the [C] night,


on this [G] mountain [D] where we used to [C] play.


and i want you to [G] see how it [D] feels,


thro' my [C] eyes,


see it thro' my eyes,


see it thro' my [G] e- [D]y-[Am]es.


see it thro' my [G] e- [D]y-[C]es.



[G] leaves are turning [D] colour, its getting [C] cold.


the [G] fire glows a [D] warmth i cannot [C] hold.


[G] winters getting [D] closer, it's gonna be [C] grey.


was it [G] really that easy for [D] you to cast me [C] away.




chorus




and an abrupt end after chorus




see it thro' my [G]eyes.
