good cover. bread was a huge influence to many

Pure class…really stunning version Tom. For sure keep rocking buddy.

Absolutely beautiful changes in this my friend.

Wow, really nice! I am with you on the "covers" thing for the same reasons. It's great to take creative liberties with some of these great songs especially when the original muses are on hiatus! Love the heavier bridge/chorus and stellar lead. Nice Vox too! Peace to you Tom!

That solo really updates this classic, Tom. And well done on the high vocal notes too!

This is a great track, love the retro sound! And the Guitar-Solo! :-)

Let Me Be Your Rock On A Stormy Coast

Es gibt viele Dinge, die aus der Ferne gesehen schrecklich, unerträglich, ungeheuerlich scheinen. Nähert man sich ihnen, werden sie menschlich, erträglich, vertraut. Darum sagt man, die Furcht ist größer als das Übel.

There are many things that, seen from a distance, seem terrible, unbearable, monstrous. If you approach them, they become human, bearable, familiar. That is why they say that fear is greater than evil.

Hi everyone. I hope all is well. This time I wanted to do a cover of the classic , ‘If’ by Bread with my own spin on it. They were genius song writers and musicians. The band was together from 1970 thru 1977. ‘If’ was released in 1971, from their 3rd album ‘Manna’ and reached #28 in the charts that year.
I like to do covers. I guess all the years from playing clubs
and learning all those cover songs is a part of my DNA. I still have a number of songs featuring Randy on lead vocals that I’ll release from time to time. I guess I’m trying to find my own way with his passing, but all is good. I hope you like this track and your feedback is appreciated.

					If
				by David Gates
			
If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show 
The you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour, yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

I got the leather pants
I stand the rock n' roll stance
I've broken every rule
In the rock n' roll school

CHORUS
I'm not a rock n' roll star
I glitter up pretend I'm a star
I climbed up the ladder but I did not get far
There are parties still to go to
Sit back take a photo
There i s nothing more that I can do
So thank you!

The stories are few
And there's no groupie queue
The feedback I hear
It perforated my ear

CHORUS

Dear friends,
we have all heard about the frightening heat in the west of Canada and USA.
My heart is with those folks, and I hope that it will be better, and that they can win over the terrible forest fires which make the air terrible to breathe.

Lyrics:
Summer 2021

The summer in the north is here
and the people will open their doors
for to see if the rain is passing by
and all the kids they will go out for to play a while
and the sun is shining on all of us people on this globe

The summer in the north is here
but however the warmth may be tough
for some countries where no one can stand the heat
and there are also some poor folks who die at present time
and the sun is shining on all of us people on this globe

The heat takes us all by surprise
there are those who suggest, it’s our own fault
since we overuse what - nature gives
but we allways will live as we are used to
and the sun is shining on all of us people on this globe

The summer in the north is here
and we like it a lot since we don’t freeze
and we enjoy that the days longer are
and we can listen to the birds who are busy with their kids
and the sun is shining on all of us people on this globe

If you would like me listen to your new track just message me and while your on my cloud have a listen or two, we can support each other.
I would like to thank all the friends that have supported my music all these years on Sound Cloud. I’ve had the privilege of working with some wonder artists here as well. The last several years I had the privilege of working with Randy Hedrick (Hedd RoXX) who lived two houses down from me growing up, who knew he could sing like that-I got lucky. Sadly Randy passed away in early 2021 unexpectedly. I was blessed to have him as a friend and a songwriting partner. So I hope you enjoy the Original and cover songs we attempted. Feel free to comment and follow. Let me know what you think.
