Topic: I Want to Make You Laugh

Another song I wrote for my wife after another shooting, this time in a small town in Texas not far from where we used to live. It was supposed to give her something more positive to think about on a sad day.

Re: I Want to Make You Laugh

Another good song by you, very relevant to this crazy world at the moment. I think we all need to laugh more in amongst the turmoil. Great song smile

Re: I Want to Make You Laugh

Thank you Jan. I was hesitant to record and share this one but decided to in the end. I think the whole world can do better and hopefully will someday soon.
