3. I'm not giving up yet...though maybe i should...
here are the lyrics


WALKING FROM HENDERSON

G Bm C G
Your sister told me you were confused and sad
And the heat made you crazy and and the heat made you mad…
Move away from the desert and stay away from the man
And I’ll try to save your love any way I can

G D Em C G D
We’ll walk away hey baby…hand in hand
G D/Em D C G
Set a fire in our hearts on the blazing sand

G Bm C G
She has a place in Henderson with an old mean man
No one loves her….i’m her only fan
She walks tall with grace from a long ago time
God knows she’s beautiful…he’s made the sign

G D Em C G D
We’ll walk away hey baby…hand in hand
G D/Em D C G
Set a fire in our hearts on the blazing sand

D C G
I know I left her in a land far away
D C G
I know I walked away and left her
D C G Em
I know she cried and it was in tears that we paid
Am C G D
Yes I’ll wipe her eyes and never go away

G Bm C G
So it’s time to come home and be born again
Clear your mind and make your heart mend
And if it’s all up to me…I’ll paint a smile
We’ll do it together we’ll walk that mile

4. well finally got some feedback on another BB
"Guitar - good
Vocals - not so good

So you fell in love at Sunset Station, eh?"


i do agree with this assessment...but what about the song itself...would you like it better if someone who knew how to sing...sung it? and what is Sunset Station?

6. allright
"stopped overnight in Henderson 3 weeks ago while taking a plane to Atlanta.

I play lead guitar in a classic rock band...might be nice/fun to get together"

a cool response from a local BB...if he can sing we might be dangerous!

8. All right, already! I'll check it out!
Gimme a few minutes. It's such a hassle bringing new stuff into my library and getting it squared away.

I reserve the right to lie through my teeth if you suck. :D

9. Oh, it plays automatically. Cool.
Your guitar playing is beautiful, and this is a decent song. You need to work your voice hard in practice, then back off a tad on the vocals. You have a voice like mine: kind of thin at times. When you sing softly, the song is hypnotic and wafts me away, but the verses are kinda jangling at times. Just random thoughts, and not really worth anything.

You’re off to a great start with this. I’m not lying. :)

I think I'll check out some of your other stuff while I'm in there.

10. thanks for the feedback...
your assessment is probobly consistant with most others who have listened...unfortunately at 47, my voice is probobly as good as it gets...i'm cursed by the monkey god!
i did this for the musicians forum...one of the posters there proposed a exposition of original songs...we had about a month and this is my final cut...i know i would never admit it in a court of law...but the song is really based on a real person...and actual circumtances...i guess it just goes to show that just becouse it makes sense to me, does not mean it makes sense to anyone else...

"at times...hypnotic and (it) wafts me away"

that is the part o the critique that i would put on the outside sleave...heh heh...

thanks for your time and honesty! i hope you get a kick out of some of the other songs...
