It was such fun doing this old classic by Leo Sayer......Thanks to Hook for playing the Banjo Drums and Bass and Mixing it to such a great sound....i'm doing the vocals and playing the piano....this was so much fun to do although through work…
Hook sent me two mix's and i couldn't decide which sounded better so i thought i'd put both up and let you decide....this one has a bit of age to it and i love how the Banjo and the Piano work together....let me know what you decide.....thanks…
The drums were done on the keyboard i desired to play the guitar but i'm just not able to strum it.....so here it is vocal and drums from down deep in the cellar..........

I think this is a great country song really and would like to hear it sung straight! Mind you this is a wonderful performance anyway Reg.
Yeah, it's a good song this!
This version is based around the original with a bit of a psychedelic Reg twist....it's been a joy playing around with this tune....i hope you enjoy.............

**Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2025**
Song number 01
Written Saturday-Sunday 1st-2nd February 2025
Written 1st-2nd Feb
Demo recorded 2nd Feb
****
I wasn't gonna do this FAWM thing this year, but they sent me an email...
And then I wrote…
Song 9# for my 2025 RPM Challenge. The finishing line is near. I wrote this song last night - it emerged out of the burning heart ache I've experienced since the death of my beloved 13 year old dog Maxwell (died last May) - my love for him is…
Sometimes writing a song is the very best and only thing you can do....
Cold Winter Moon
Oh cold winter moon
And the wind that blows
Bring me a change
For my weary soul
Take away this longing
That fills my heart
Something is over…
My words, ai demo.
Your clothes are in the wardrobe
And your books are on the shelf
I wander from room to room
Talking quietly to myself
How can I see my future
When you’re standing in the way?
Every morning I wake up, I’m in
Tomorrow…
Guitars/Mandolin: Doug Sparling
Composer: Traditional
Recorded: 2005
A couple of nice reels played on guitar, the first is The Cup of Tea, can't remember the name of the second one. Unfortunately my midi flute scratch track got added in the mix…
(Song 4)
Hair net tossed on the table
Name tag still pinned to my shirt
Work boots wait on the front step
but they might walk out on me too
I've got no one left to care for
No one left to hear my prayer
Talking to the kitchen window…
this is all chris. except i went the route of playing synthesized drums, which was a gas. at one time i couldn't stand the sound of them. but i knew they would fit his song. i think this is a very interesting journey.
A strange beast that began back in 2021 as a chord progression that didn't go anywhere. I finally knuckled down and finished it. It has a somewhat awkward transition from verse to chorus, but when I tried shifting either to accommodate the other…
I come up to the surface
And take a breath on my return
Crystal waters on the surface
Light gets swallowed down below
And it’s the same way with my feelings
About you they stay much the same
Twenty years wrapped up in paper
Tied it up…
Another one for Steve, our amazing bass player….a BIG Planet of the Apes fan.
I never followed Those movies, but he assures me that he’s kept within the bounds of the narrative.

Comments on thetworegs's stuff
Great fun!

That is an adventurous musically unaccompanied vox. Well done indeed.
Hold on Reggy, it's about a 6 hour train journey.
Wonderful!!
Utter fantastic ..............F&ck yeah
The banjo and piano are working real well in Mix 1 as well. I enjoy the fuller vocals in mix 1.
Good one.
Go team!
@Bee: *"I would like to hear it sung straight"* Do you think that is a reasonable request to ask of Reg? Personally, I prefer Igor's approach.
Ooh shades of Springsteen - soulful and gritty! Vocal chameleon! Tess S
A very strong performance.
I think this is a great country song really and would like to hear it sung straight! Mind you this is a wonderful performance anyway Reg. Yeah, it's a good song this!

~ Because its true I don't love you Its true I can, I'm able to say goodbye Already You're gone I'm free, I'm free To sing ~

Laid back and lovely…
That bass is shaking the car down and dirty
Another year older waiting for your FAWN 26 submission
Poor old Maxwell at least he was loved
I’m liking the piano sounds like a real one rather than midi but I’m probably wrong
Got a great 80’s vibe going with that synth
The UK stops on 2 inches of snow good luck with the next 3 months were hoping not to drown in all this rain
A beautiful song beautifully sung
Great vocal
