Guess I just needed to say something ......
Well, the line's been drawn, we'll ignore and we'll invade,
It's best if you run, or get on your knees and pray,
After midnight, bullets…
Thanks for this one Roger.... I'm so sad every day that we live in another era that repeats the same old sins of history. When will humans learn that we can all share and everyone will have enough?

Yep... Not much to say really... But I like how you've done it... Those chords in the chorus/refrain, moves the vibe from "triumphant" to "empty" as you deliver the line.
Hehe... I've spoken to my people... and we'd have been more scared if you'd trade-marked the title somehow... and they said to mention to your lawyer and this Dexter chap that Lorraine "Atomic Blonde" Broughton is a very dear friend of ours and she has a special understanding of the phrase "We're Done" ...hehehe
Wow! I just realised I heard and loved this on Tuesday... and then wrote a thing called "We're Done" on Saturday - I shall go and update my description now!!!

While kids watched TV eating chocolate,we had easter early as their cousins came over after they left I had a couple of hours this afternoon so of course i got the guitar out i used the fender stratocaster with a 12 string plugin through the kemper…
A bit of wah lead to a song......
As the clouds start to break the suns on the run again
Keeping all that rain at bay
I’ve had enough of this damn lockdown
I want out, I want to live and have some fun again
Come on sun shine down on me…
Summer In The Wind was written by me and recorded by the Ninja Broilers (myself and my sister). It is dedicated to our mum. A song of sad goodbyes and new beginnings.
This is one of our first "international collaborations" - so the production…
When I was young we lived opposite a big play area - lots of grass and trees and bushes to rampage around - and in the middle a tarmac playground with the "amusements" - a witches hat (aka umbrella), a long rocking horse with saddles along its…
Ashes and dragon's breath - bright things in the sky, childhood games, battlegrounds, cemeteries.
Lyrics:
Long long days, summer holidays, staying up late
green wood on the bonfire, we danced around the flames
street lights and stars…
With lovely Keith Landry. Unfortunately, the studio I had at the time was on its last legs and the recording is a terrible quality, but I've never been able to get the vocal to sound better. Probably because I'm now over the awful thing* I did…
As I have mentioned in other years, I am so very blessed to have some songs come to me in my dreams. Grace is one of them. The specific line "Grace, grace, grace! You don't have to be a lonely child" is what I retained in my waking moments so…
Heres one for the cutup fest I have the little black songbook of Led Zeppelin so i've done an oroginal guitar track and cut up the lyrics from their songs and came up with this ....Thanks for listening

The Water wheel stops under the clear blue sky
The sun burns the crops and there all doomed to die
The knowing know the truth and repeat no lies
Hushing…

Cool song. I like the imagery and the hopeful end to the verses.
My feet are tapping!
Ooooh ooooh oh Mama! Love it
Yeah, why not :)
Nice one.
I like the shuffle and imagery. It has a soaring quality.
Yeah we like this a lot ("we" being Mr & Mrs R)

Great song written about a horrific event. I never thought I’d see this kind of thing happen in the world.
Yep... Not much to say really... But I like how you've done it... Those chords in the chorus/refrain, moves the vibe from "triumphant" to "empty" as you deliver the line.
Good one indeed! Hope it’s fictional and all is okay in the real world
Let’s hope you’re singing about Eunice who just blew in and out your life. Good riddance.
