A lovely simple message that didn't get lost in crazy production values!

Good song.  Always like this approach....like a letter, or phone call, real or imagined.  And that guitar is so clean.

Excellent song. Great lyrics and vocals 👍

really like the melody and vocal..pensive feeling lyrics..like the chorus

A weird version of the classic Sex Pistols tune.

In the absence of "Pistol", the upcoming TV series about the legendary band, I started listening to the old Sex Pistols songs. Pretty Vacant was and is my favorite.

I tried to do the song like the original but I'm way from the attitude and sound. So... This is my version!

The Edit Version of the song contains 
another snare drum and a less hot master = more dynamic

PRETTY VACANT edit (Sex Pistols cover)

I composed this song many years ago but I updated the tune in 2023. 

Lyrics

I’m sitting here thinking
What are you doing 
I hope you’re doing fine; I do miss you so

That sweet smile you have
Leaves a picture in my mind
All I can do, is just think of you

Everybody needs someone to be close to
Everybody needs someone to confide with
Cause being lonely, never helped nobody, and all I can do s just think of you

When I’m with you
Everything seems so fine
I give you all I have, just give me love in return

I’ll share my love with you
If only you stay near
I really don’t know what I’d do, if some day you were gone

Lyrics:
Listen from far beyond
listen you crowd of loss
listen you all, a generation of pain 
that felt destruction so close

listen people who wheep
that you are the chosen sheep
a sheep that will live, forever you will
and without any bleed

and the seasons are changing
and the days are passing by, while fighting the good fight
and the time feels like raging, an unstoppable light 
and now i am saying...you can't go wrong! 

I hear some people sing, 
i hear some people scream,
i know we all, being under the sky  
in this place where we breathe and dream

listen around the globe,
embrace what u  really love
with body and soul you have to give in
 and never let it go!

You Can't Go Wrong!

 lyrics:
So you had enough today?
I thought u'll visit us one day
Was waiting for another sunray
to hear you once again prevail

I thought you'd live forever
i dreamed our bonds would never sever
at least you did one more last endeavour
and that's why i would admire you forever

You lived your life and that was fine
it was super cool and you were on the first line
you didn't pretend , you neved showed off
you didn't have tattoos or fake persona blastoff

You lived your life, till your 49
and afterwards your soul forevermore shine
your face is now on t-shirts, your name on NY street
and that's why i sing and say....ROcknRoll kills anywayyyy

You toured nonstop for 22 years
thank god there was music and brushed away your fears
you got bullied so many times
and then you wrote the world's top class rhymes

For them you were the underdog, the freak 
for us a legend and not the weak
you gave us hope, the music & soul 
You were so true and not a fake persona blastoff

Back around 2015, I started taking guitar lessons from an instructor who was really into Bluegrass Music. I soon discovered that didn't have an aptitude for the guitar and didn't have a great desire to practice enough to make up for any natural ability. 
I did mention to my instructor that I had written a couple of songs and maybe our time would be better spent learning how to record these songs.
One day I tried to write a 'bluegrass" tune and titled it, "I've Done It Again." We recorded it. Years later, I wanted to revisit some of my earlier recordings and see what they might sound like with professional musicians. Nicky V. Hines, currently the lead guitarist with Shenandoah acted as musical director, guitarist, arranger, engineer, and producer for me on this finally finished new version. (Several versions have been posted on my SC page throughout the years. This will be the Spotify, Apple, Amazon etc version of which I shall make .002 of a penny every time it is played.) On bass is Martin Motnik currently a member of the popular European Heavy Metal Band "Accept." (Trust me, I have no idea how a country bumpkin like me ended up working with Heavy Metal - but I dig it.) On keyboards is the wonderful Tim McDonald , out of Nashville. On drums is another Nashvillian, Travis L.. Super people and very, very talented and experienced.
I like this version very much - musically. I think the mix is excellent (Nicky V. Hines) and I like how he took down the reverb on the vocal, it sounds a bit edgier, a little more vulnerable, and real. 
What's the song about? It's about not being able to take off the "masks" and take down the walls . Although "good lover" is sexual certainly sounding - we can mess up good love in other ways too - family, friends, etc. And, although we can deeply feel the pain of our actions, sometimes we just can't seem to get out of our own way. 
It is a song about being human. Thank you Nicky!

I've Done It Again

I sent a song to my dear friend David, on his birthday, and invited him to start his birthday by taking a walk with me in our nature here in Sweden, to hear what possibly inspired, and appeared during this walk. ;)

You can also experience this walk visually here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uvdvLJZB0U

I also sent it to our dear colleagues Ed, Dan & Peter who have done many great collaborations with us, and asked them to "walk with us". ;)
This is the result of this delightful walk..... and we all, wish you all to have a lovely morning walk with this beauty, stillness, and pleasantness, during a wonderful morning, wherever you are. ;)

David on two acoustic guitars with beautiful melody, from both, as only he can play. ;)

Ed with his outstanding electric guitar playing, who also assisted with a soft with a feeling and beautiful bass guitar. ;) You can find more of Ed's fantastic music here: https://soundcloud.com/westtracksmusic

Dan-DT with his lovely "French Fantasies" musical effects with the lovely voice of Clara, a brilliant piano, although very subtle, and synth effects. ;) You can find more of Dan's fantastic music here: https://soundcloud.com/dan-t-3

And our dear poet/lyricist Peter, who with his unmistakable voice conveys a message to you all, as he always does ,with a feeling and meaning that touches us all deeply. ;) You can find more of Peter's lovely poetry/lyrics and songs here: https://soundcloud.com/user-264930040/tracks

Have a superb morning, wherever you are in life. ;)

Peter lyric:
A tempered bond of ether gold forged from trust in seeming kin

Blenched of ore hewn from so much more than mere common ground

Metallicised, a like of kind that cannot tarnish, ne'er to rust, it's strength, atomic, set within

And so my grateful thoughts are due, my friend, to you, as one where empathy is ever found

To crystallize a state of mind as if from walks in morning dew as bright new days begin.

A Walk In The Morning Dew - Seagull, David, Ed, Dan & Peter

“What makes a song is the singer, while what makes a singer is their dedication to music and their inner feelings.”   Dimash Qudaibergen

I have enjoyed music for as long as I can remember and cannot remember a day of not either singing or listening to music. I am self-taught when it comes to playing guitar but what I most enjoy is singing which I have been doing since around age 18. Now retired singing and playing the guitar is now just a hobby and something I do to help pass the time. Have always  loved the sound of a Martin guitar. Currently been playing a Road Series DR S2 for about 6 years. Thanks for listening. I also enjoy discovering the sounds of other talented musicians and singers here on SoundCloud.
