oh, this moves like grease through lightening

what a catchy chorus ....the beat is so damn unforgettably hot like the sun on that day. A day like you captured soooo well

Beautiful song and great guitar work 👌

I really like the freedom/love (of a father) expressed in the song Johnny.

What a good time You had - You and Your son! Lovely song and lovely picture!

I heard this one months ago but somehow missed the chance to leave a comment, unless I left it on another mix. Sounding great and I'm getting the spirit of Phil Lynnot in this one. Thanks for sharing Johnny

No Prayers For November (featuring Tom Waits)

Just Blues

Tired of cold short days? Me too. Let's party!!  I haven't posted anything new in a while so here's a 10 year old tune that will be new to some of my peers, and those who've heard it have already gotten over the shock. This is an exercise in licentious sexual innuendo and lewd, funky sounds. It's what happens when an otherwise innocent childhood is spent listening to Jimmy Castor Bunch, New Birth, Slave, James Brown, Funkadelic, etc, and there are some biblical metaphors thrown in for good measure. It can be downloaded in case I decide to run for Governor and need to quickly hide all scandal.

OK where does this nonsense come from? 

"There's a primordial dread and fear of the power of the Feminine expressed in the feckless desire to dominate and control a situation that the poor fool just oughta accept as way beyond his own meager forces."  -- Carl Jung

TASTES LIKE CHICKEN
I went down to the melon patch 
gonna find myself a big 'un
it was Saturday morning and the sun was shining 
and I was ready for diggin'

there she was alone with her hands around a vine
sunlight shining through her summer dress I said my my my

my name is Daisy hope you don't mind
that I'm down here pulling on your vines
now if you please may i keep on pickin?
and one more thing I taste like chicken

she was in my melon patch already picking
and now she tells me she tastes like chicken
this could be the thing that I've been missing
now here's a girl that tastes like chicken

she followed me home with a couple juicy melons
I said baby where you are from but she wasn't telling
now something about her story just wasn't clickin'
I know a lotta girls don't none of them taste like chicken

back in my kitchen I cut the rind
it was pink and juicy on the inside
she said baby just a minute
I need to step outside before we get in it

she went outside behind a big old tree
I was following close behind but I didn't let her see
then I heard something that blew my mind
she was talking alien on a radio line

she came back in through the front door
wearing nothing but a smile
I know she's an alien
but I'll let it go for now

now I'm not sure how it's gonna all work out
I still got my extraterrestrial doubts
but man she looks good standing in my kitchen
and she tastes like chicken

Tastes Like Chicken

I wrote this song for my son who went to Australia a while back. Before he went we went camping and surfing over to the west of Ireland to the Maharees, beautiful place. We camped in the dunes, lit a camp fire, cooked burgers, drank beer and later we lay on our backs watching the stars. The sun when it sets in the West of Ireland is Golden as it sinks into the sea. I am comparing the Golden Sun to my Golden son. 
Beautiful Memory in Song. 

This is a remix.

Lyrics:

You are beautiful
And i have completely fallen for you
Oh you are wonderful
And i run after you...

I will keep on running
You are absolutely stunning
Iam running after you
You're my hero
You're my glue
You lift me up
And i will never stop
Running fast after you..

Your smile is beautiful
Your hair so soft and smooth
Your arms so good and strong
Your eyes so deep and blue..

I will keep on running
You are absolutely stunning
Iam running after you
You're my hero
You're my glue
You lift me up
and i will never stop
Running fast after you...

Your heart is beautiful
Your words so smart and true
You're ears are listening
To my feet that run after you..

I will keep on running
You are absolutely stunning
Iam running after you
You're my hero
You're my glue
You lift me up
And i will never stop
Running fast after you....

Will Keep On Running W/ Janne Hennie

This is about how life is constantly presenting challenges. We must learn from each incident/experience and use that learning to try and be more resilient and be able to move forward. 
I wrote it on my 3/4 size Hofner classical guitar. It’s first song! I used open G tuning after being encouraged to try it by Mark Spruce (Original Spruce - great songs- give them a listen!). Thanks Mark! 
Hope you enjoy it. Best with headphones! 
Take care

Lyrics 
My Uncertain Steps 

As a boy, I was scared of the sea
With my family, on a beach in Normandy, 
a French boy told me the ghosts of drowned sailors grab your legs and dragged you down
I wouldn’t go in! 
Too naive and trusting! 

As a teen, I was all over the place! 
Always confused, just didn’t know which way to face
Too many temptations, suggestions and thrills, distracting and wild
Couldn’t think straight 
Couldn’t concentrate! 

It was always their demands and directions 
Had to meet their dreams and expectations 

My uncertain steps
No confidence 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps 
At my own pace
(My way) 

My wreckage of a life, with this chaotic love
Constant demands, you can never do enough 
Mix in the bullies, the twisters and those egos too
It pulls you apart
Breaks your heart 

I’m seasoned, I now know this path
One crisis avoided, another starts 

My uncertain steps
More experienced 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps
At my own pace 
(My way) 

And now I expect to see the worst
In everyone and everything I know
Just know how it is, but feel I can somehow 
see it through

(outro) 
I’ve got friends (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve lived and learnt (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve got you (for my uncertain steps) 
I’ll get through this (my uncertain steps)

My Uncertain Steps

Portal To Another World

I don’t think we’re in Kansas, anymore…but it’s very metal!😇… and the @ problem is “ the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes… and… the pride of life”…you can look that one up, in your spare time, surely!!!😎😇

Lyrics:
A warning, loud, now that it’s been made clear 
Just something, that I just got to say 
You speak up or get spoken for 
And steal what you have to pay 
Spent a fortune on the poverty you made
Looks like it’s here to stay

Got the world in your back pocket
Bought the spirits of the souls you sell
Life, so cheap, costs so much
Had you pushed me if I fell
Too little time, and not much money
Can’t you tell? Well, it’s just as well.

Chorus:
And right is wrong
Sing this song or sing-along
Cause I know, no, you don’t
Get your way for not too much longer

Dig?!

Anti-, anti-everything 
New truth for an equal lie 
When your honesty is the answer to 
The questions you cannot hide 
Make sure you get yours, baby, now 
And don’t ask why 
Don’t you even try?

Chorus 

And if I told you what the problem was 
Well, you’d probably only sit back and laugh 
Cause every day, and every night 
It’s hard to see when you’re always asleep in the light 
With your bright night lights on ￼￼

And right is wrong
Sing this song or sing-along
Cause I know, no, you don’t
Get your way for not too much longer

Dig!

I am a singer/songwriter from Ireland loving SoundCloud and the ability to be able to put my songs up here for people to listen to and comment and to be able to collaborate with other musicians around the world is really amazing. Loving the technology that makes all this home recording and sharing possible and  i am totally knocked out by the talent out there it is frightening and brilliant and i am in awe and very happy to be part of this amazing forum.
