Topic: Don't Want No

I wrote this song," Dont Want No' when I was  a young man a long time ago. It came about when a girlfiend I had at the time. was obsessed with Radio, Television , and Newspapers asked me what do you want from me when you visit. She would have a TV or a radio turned up loud all the time and was an avid Newspaper reader. She was not much of a conversationalist and was always concerned that people didn't get her jokes or understand her quirky humour. One day after asking her if she could just turn of the radio and TV and have a conversation without all the distraction she asked me.  "What do you want from me when you visit"? A few days later in answer to that question I wrote this song Don't Want No. I put it up on soundcloud a while back I didn't really get much feed back about it as a song. I would be interested to hear if anyone has any thoughts on it as  it is been around for many years ? Attachment below.

    This is really good !!  Great lyric - terrific playing and singing.   Put some percussion with this recording and it's a hit on the radio!  Merry Christmas.
