Re: SUGGESTIONS: NOVEMBER 2022 – Anything to Do with WATER

Here is a water song I like by Kiwi songwriter Brooke Fraser. it's too hard for me to cover. Check out the drummer in this video a very original and subtle style of playing. Maybe someone will cover this song Something In The Water.

Re: SUGGESTIONS: NOVEMBER 2022 – Anything to Do with WATER

i know im early but the title intrigued and theres been some great poems here lately.

Anything To Do With Water
Throw it against a wall and see if it sticks
turn it on and let it flow
must be playing tricks
theres country music in the water
so sparkling and clear
theres country music in the sky
so far and yet so near
anything to do with waters got to be good
for without it we wouldnt survive
theres not a thing that would be alive
anything to do with wind blows my mind
anything to do with water will wash me away

Peatle
That video of Brooke Fraser was fabulous.  WHAT A VOICE!
The drummer was having a blast playing - just enjoying the song so much.  I hope everyone on here gives that a listen !!

Thanks for sharing.
