`Finger to the knockers`
About my writing song
I`m taking a bit of flak
Some say ok
But others say they crap
So think i`ll stop writing
It`s knocked my con..fi..dence
writing songs putting out there
Is like walking down main st. naked
a lot of laughing & pointing
particularly at the little bits
so i`ll stay with guitar
just stick to strum
then i won`t be naked
no one laughing at my bum
Gidday,
Went to a hollies concert last night.
They really turned it on,2 1/2 hrs of hits
They reworked some old stuff, and they where
the highlights for me.
and a fantastic version of that old chestnut `stewball`
Another cracker Phill
Congats, Like it a lot.
Yeah, know what you mean.
it`s the same with musicians, lots of ego
but the good guys are humble they let
actions do the talking.
Gidday,
recently i received a recording from the brilliant Phill Williams
Great singer /guitarist/song writer.
He picked up on one of my song/poem added some chords
& sang it, sent me a copy.
i can`t even begin to explain how much this meant to me
hearing some of my stuff actually played & sung!
Many many thanks Phill.
I`m pretty useless at that stuff,so having written 90 songs
lately i can`t really sing them myself.
If any of u see just a tiny bit of something in any of my stuff
please give it a try. I`d love to hear the results.
thanks
very happy Brian ( thanks again Phill)
Thanks for ya comments guys,all noted.I`m open to any advise
i can get from you lot.i`m just a strummer so am keen to take on
your comments.
Phill sent me a mp3 of this song that he did.it is brilliant,it gave
me goose bumps.As i`m not much @ singing & playing im rapt
that someone took their time to make something of one of my scribbles.
thanks Phil for ever grateful, for once words fail me.
brian
Thanks for your comment Daddy yeah i`m bit slow @ typing
so tend to cop out & call than poems.
As my teacher said many many many years ago `can do better`
I can`t believe i wrote this RAP song? I hate rap!
As i was reading it back i was tapping my hand on the desk
& thought hey that works,so went back & hardened up the lyrics.
Money Talks
All the moneys going out
nothings comin` in
Ain`t nothing unusual
The way it`s always bin
Work so hard
Six days a week
No sign..... the good life
No sign........relief
All the moneys going out
Nothings comin` in
They say money talks
Well it does ....with a grin
My money talks
All it says is
Bye....Bye...Bye
Bye Bye Bye Bye .........sucker
The favourite thing i like doing
with my wife
She says oh thats good
I like that a lot
A little to the left
A little to the right
Now that`s so much better
You found the right spot
Keep going you doing fine
So i stop at that spot
Dig a hole
Plant the tree there
We love gardening togeather
Gidday
Good subject,i`m not a song writer,i just scribble stuff down.
Some times i call it a song sometimes a poem.
I don`t care what anyone thinks,i just need to get them out
of my head and written down some where.Hence i probably won`t get any good.
If someone likes it as is thats a bonus.
Funny thing though,i gave a song to a friend.She did it, really differently
to how i did it.At first i was flattered that someone wanted one of my
scribbles. Really loved what she did to it,but she added two lines,they
where rhyme lines.
I felt that changed the whole integrity,I`m still not sure how i feel now.
Dear moderaters,you do a great job.
It`s a shame you only hear from some people when they want to complain.
Mixed Bag
You can`t have good
Without the bad
You can`t have sane
Without the mad
You can`t have pleasure
Without the pain
You can`t have fame
without the blame
You can`t have loss
Without the gain
You can`t have the win
without the defeat
All in all, lifes a mixed bag
You get what you get
I like it.
The song that is, not cheap champagne!
a few lines there that i wish i had of written.
Gidday Phil
Well done.I like it a lot.
I`m still writing 2 a day but can`t be bothered putting them here.
Also u & i seem to be the only ones putting songs up.
Keep up the good work
B.
Gidday Baldguitardude,
So u went to the sevens?
How is it received in Las Vegas,what sort of interest /crowds do u get?
The Wellington round of the international sevens is sold out in an hour.
About 35,000 people turn up for a massive weekend party.
The whole town goes nuts,48 hrs of party party & a bit of rugby.
Gidday Dino
Yeah i think we got beaten in the final by South Africa.

Gidday,
most ukes are pretty good,the cheaper ones tend to have cheap strings,
so best to replace them with good ones.
OR spend a bit more on a med price uke.
Also if you`re a beginner maybe get a concert or tenor size not a soprano.
get your self a tuner as well they are cheap no use playing an out of tune uke.
lets know how u get on?
A comment finally many thanks Dino
Yeah i think u right.
i only spend 5 minutes writing a song
so plenty of room for improvements.
But what comes out, i don`t question it
just jot it down,& wait for the next one
to appear.
can`t sing so no video!
Close Escape ( kinda bluesy thing i think E A B7)
E A
Who needs it baby
E A7
Who needs the grief
E
Stole your heart
A
Took it away
B7

B7
The very next day
E A
who needs it baby
E A7
who needs the grief
E A
You say by stealing your heart
E A7

E
But i gave it back
A
was a close escape
B7
Such a relief
E A
Who needs it baby
E A7
Who needs the grief
Phill
Thought some one ought to make the effort to comment!
I like your work keep it up,please keep them coming.
I recently wrote one called `Original ` it`s about the
lack of originality,lots of guitar players
& writers just repeating the same old stuff.
also put one here called `Think` which is similar thing.
Some bands have very original names it attracts me to give them a listen.
thanks for your comment dino
i`ve writen 63 of these things over the last 2mths
put some here for people to critique,but very little feed back.
once again thanks for taking the time to comment
i note other peoples songs and poems get feedback maybe mine are crap.
I`m rich and famous
though i haven`t done a thing
haven`t invented any thing
but i`ve invented me
haven`t discovered any thing
but i`ve discovered me
did an ad on TV
that`s where you`ve seen me
we`re living in the cult of personality
famous for being famous
been in woman`s weekly
smiling for all to see
the brain dead public
can`t get enough of me
famous for nothing
famous for being me
