I've got this original with the word "changing" in it:

(not quite 'change', but in a similar vein)

Hi EB,

Sorry, was in a rush when I put them up, because I use an iPad when I perform I 'scrunch up' the words so it all fits on one screen - I've edited it to make it (hopefully) easier to follow ...

Hope that helps!

Cheers

easybeat, that was nicely performed by you all round.   Easy to listen to and just flowed.  Good to see you enter something in here again.

neophytte,  change / changing = close enough smile  I like the lyrics in this song, and a couple of the lines stuck out.  "how  can your voice make or break me" which particulary good and thought provoking.

Peatle, that was a pleasant surprise to see you back posting on FSOTM as I know you have been having trouble with pain in your hands playing guitar.  I enjoyed listening and to how you put it all together with the vocals over lapping and talking at the same time in places, very creative.  Good lyrics on reflection of life "if only I knew".  Was that your lovely lady joining in at the end with you?

Thank you Jan for your kind comments that is my wonderful, beautiful, lovely Maree indulging me with a helping backing vocal on that recording just done with my cell phone.  I wish I could sing better and play music better but it is what it is. I know its not recorded that well but shows something of how it could be and if it entertains someone just a little bit I feel I have given it a good shot and hopefully it might encourage others to have a go.  Jan your a legend its great to have you on chordie doing a wonderful mahi on here.     

Re: JUNE 2023 FSOTM – WORLD, AGE, WAY, CHANGE, CAPRICIOUS, ZZZZZ

I left a message on SoundCloud about how your guitar playing is getting much better - I can certainly hear improvements to some of your earlier work. However the echo was a bit strong on the voice, making it hard to distinguish the lyrics, I got the general jist of the song and enjoyed it nonetheless!!

I always find your songs and videos interesting - you certainly have a knack for adding in 'ordinary' things and making it the visuals and audio line up. I'm glad you put something up, I do miss your esotoric videos!!

Jandle, thanks for your kind words, I used to do this in my acoustic duo and the lady that sang it was way better than myself - have a listen to this version from 1992!! (recorded on a 4 track recorder)

Neo
ive had this comment about the reverb before,i use it to hide my horrible voice.
ive  gone back each time and listened on multiple devices and it seems ok.
perhaps ill dial reverb back,as i think its important to hear the words
thx for your comment always welcome good or bad.

Richard thank you for your feedback. I lost many of the tools for doing video of my laptop so now I'm a bit more limited on what I can do. With my health issues I have and other things occupying my time video making has gone into a bit of a decline.     

Re: JUNE 2023 FSOTM – WORLD, AGE, WAY, CHANGE, CAPRICIOUS, ZZZZZ

Good one Peatle   You are sage for sure.   Nice that Marie joined you on such a cool song.

Jim thank you for taking time to check my attempts out and your encouraging words.  Your a real champion and it's a privilege to have someone with your wisdom and knowledge make me feel like an accepted part of this chordie community.
