look what i did

[frenchy]

lets hope this works .. this is a song i wrote and recorded myself on a little 4 track recorder back in 1976 .. just me on acoustic guitar and bass and vocals .. i always said i'm gonna put a lead guitar on there too but i ran outta tracks and never got to it .. but it sounds ok as it is .. but maybe i'll still get around to puttin the lead on there .. along with some ohhs and ahhs in the backround .. you can never go wrong with some good ohhs and ahhs ..

thanks t .. ya know the funny thing about writin a song is at the time you start you have no idea where it will go .. its so subliminal .. at least for me it is .. then i'll look at it later and think sooo .. thats what i was really thinkin down deep .. its a form of self therapy i guess .. lets me exorcise my demons so to speak .. or just get in touch with my feelins .. i'm sure if i ever had a shrink for a girlfriend she'd have a field day with me .. but she probably wouldn't come back either .. 

and yeah i'll let you know rose .. i have it in my head to someday make a cd of all my songs .. i've been bugged for years to do it and i ain't gettin any younger .. not that i want to be famous or anything .. cause i don't .. thats the last thing i'd want .. but .. i am quite critical of myself .. i have this one song that sounds like the pretenders meets pink floyd .. guitar all over the place and i used this univox echo machine on everything and on the guitar it sounds pretty good .. but for the vocals to me it makes me sound like i'm singin flat just a hair .. nobody else can hear it ..or they won't admit it anyway .. but it bugs the hell outta me .. the echo has a tape in it that looks like an old 8 track and it was shot ..so no matter what i did i couldn't make the vocals go any faster to match the speed it should have been ..  so i always wanted to redo the vocals .. but the rest of the song was good .. i dunno .. maybe i could put it up .. ehh.. maybe not ..

When i found the Sing snap site . Joined it . I finally got the nerve to express myself to sing . Always wanted to sing . The more i sand Karaoke the braver i got . I started recording . I started getting comments . That gave me more confidence in myself . Maybe i can't sing anything close to what other can but i do know i have improved some what . I learned to listen to the music . It is something i can hold on too . I have many fan's of my music men and women .

Frenchy you have a gift . Use it . If nothing else make that Cd . Give your Grand children something to hold on too .

I wrote a similar song once 'Now there is one where there should be three'.

I enjoyed your song.....I guess I'm more of a dreamer.....at least you're keeping it real....

And now you know the reason for my name.

i did that uno dos tres thing myself uno .. kinda hard to write a good song about it tho .. well .. and sound sort of reputable anyway .. it has been done tho ..of course that was a long time ago when drugs were prevalent .. sure was a bumer when you came down sometimes .. and then of course there was that gemini girl .. she was like two people at once .. does that count too ?? it should ..
