South African singer-songwriter shmidi. covers Scream (Funk my life up) by Paolo Nutini. A funky bluesy rendition of an awesome song! Happy Saturday!!!!!

Hey guys,

This week I have covered one of my favourite songs at the moment... I now it is another Paolo Nutini song, but it is SO AWESOME!

I really tried to funk its Jazz UP!

Lyrics:

How was I to know you’d just come along?
(And funk my life up)
Lips like they’ve been singing sexed up strawberry songs
(Just funk my life up)
Never heard it coming, thought it’s just another woman
With a shotgun in her hand
(Funk my life up)

She’s the bass, she’s the beat, she’s the rhythm, she’s the band
(Just funk my life up)
And the girl, so fine
Makes you wanna scream Hallelujah

Sly hands, spinning webs like silk
Beats are dripping on me, like spider milk
And I never heard the warning when I woke up this morning
With my sunshine on a drip

She’s my rock, she’s my bud, she’s tequila, she’s a trip
And that girl, so fine
Makes you wanna scream Hallelujah

How can I refuse? I’m not fit to chose
(Just funk my life up)
I said the only way I win is the way I lose
(Just funk my life up)
And I never got the script, I unzipped
Got a little bit wet up in my brain
She’s your church, she’s your sin, she’s atomic,
she’s the oh she’s the rain
And the girl, so fine you wanna scream 
Yeah, yeah

She gets me silly, she’s like a trick on me
Hell, I don’t even know her name but yet she sticks to me
And in the climax she would scream with me
Yeah, she sticks to me
She gets me funny, she doesn’t want none of my money
So I pour it over her like gasoline
Light a match and then I’m back in my teens
Me and super girl smoking my green
Me and super girl smoking my green

Unload, reload, eyes back swinging,
Sweet thing, knows things, Jeff Beck sings
Roundhouse, going down…… Let’s go!
And the girl so fine makes you wanna scream Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Yeah, the girl, so fine, you wanna scream

Scream (Funk My Life Up) - Paolo Nutini Cover - (Cover by shmidi.)

South African singer-songwriter shmidi. covers 'Wheel' from the John Mayer Album 'Heavier Things'. A beautiful take on a beautiful song, some of shmidi.'s best work yet! 

Hey guys,

Today I decided to cover one of my favourite songs of all time, by the artist that has had the greatest impact on my music. This week I have taken on a John Mayer song entitled 'Wheel'. It is an older song that I'm sure most people haven't heard, but it is truly art!

Lyrics:

People have the right to fly
And will when it gets compromised
Their hearts say "Move along"
Their minds say "Gotcha heart"
Let's move it along
Let's move it along

And airports
See it all the time
Where someone's last goodbye
Blends in with someone's sigh
'Cause someone's coming home
In hand a single rose

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now
And I won't be the last
No I won't be the last,
To love her

You can't build a house of leaves
And live like it's an evergreen
It's just a season thing
It's just this thing that seasons do

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now
And you won't be the first
No you won't be the first
To love me

You can find me, if you ever want again
I'll be around the bend
I'll be around the bend
I'll be around,
I'll be around
And if you never stop when you wave goodbye
You just might find if you give it time
You will wave hello again
You just might wave hello again

And that's the way this wheel keeps working now
That's the way this wheel keeps working now

You can't love too much, one part of it
You can't love too much, one part of it
You can't love too much, one part of it
You can't love too much, one part of it

I believe (You can't love too much, one part of it)
That my life's gonna see (You can't love too much, one part of it)
The love I give (You can't love too much, one part of it)
Return to me (You can't love too much, one part of it)
I believe (You can't love too much, one part of it)
That my life's gonna see (You can't love too much, one part of it)
The love I give, return to me
I believe, that my life's gonna see
The love I give
Return to me

I hope you enjoy it, it is some of my best work yet!

Wheel - John Mayer Cover - (Cover by shmidi.)

An original song by South African singer-songwriter shmidi. 
A song about the home shmidi. grew up in, and about his memories with regard to his growing up!

Hey guys,

Happy Monday!

This week, I have brought you a song I wrote when I was 16, during a time when I started developing my song-writing style to what it is today! 

This is a very special song to me because it is about my childhood home, a very special place to me indeed!

Lyrics:

I went down to 
The place where you
Told me once to go

I looked around
At what I found
It was the same as you described

Gardens of dreams
Raindrops of grey
Deep blue above
Colours none the same

Find me there
Find me now
Join me there
Join me now

I hope you enjoy it!

Find Me There - Original Song - South African Singer-Songwriter shmidi.

Part two of 'the legend of the sea and trees' by South African singer-songwriter shmidi. A story about traveling the seas, this being part two of a three part story. Join shmidi. on the adventure!

Hey guys!

I am so proud to be bringing you part 2 of 'the Legend of the sea and trees'. I recently watched the Pirates of the Caribbean again, and it inspired me to write this piece, which I am extremely excited to bring you! We shot this film at Camps Bay in Cape Town, what a magnificent place!

Lyrics:

I'm sailing to the shores
Searching for something more
I am lost at sea
Got no company 

Set your sails high and blow with the wind
Follow the stars in the sky to your end

I was once a man
Working on dry land

The sea came calling to me in a dream
Set out at sail at once and be forever free

Lost at sea
Lost as a pirate can be
Gold and silver mean nothing to me
Just the open sea

I am old and grey
I still feel the same

I know the sea to be more of a friend
It will keep guiding me right to the end 

I hope you guys enjoy it!
