Enjoying this track.  I like the gentle guitar with your vocals, reminds me of the Kinks mixed with Pink Floyd.  Very nice!  (:

Beautiful song with lovely harmonies.  The guitar pairing works really well.   Cheers.

Wonderful re-make of this song!! The guitars sound wonderful, steel & nylon!!

I am really enjoying the thought process in this song and how you draw on your own profession for inspiration.  Really interesting writing approach too.

Delightful music and melodies, lovely harmonies!

Dear friends, This is ”The Rain” version two where I experiment with different finger picking methods. I have 2 tracks with one method on a steel stringed Furch guitar, and 1 track with another method on a nylon stringed Alhambra guitar. I have also raised the pitch by half a pitch.

The Rain

There is something that we take - for granted each day we live
it’s the rain which sometimes fall on us - is it good for us?
or a pain for us? -  It sometimes feels so
when our clothes have gotten wet and we are freezing
and we are a long way from home

Our bodies contains of - a lot of water to a major part
and lack of water makes us seriously ill - so we need the rain
to a certain amount - but give us just what we need
Too much water around can be dangerous
we may drown in the river near our home

But something has happened to the rain - we don’t know which day it will come
it has changed a lot the last years - why is it so?
is it our own fault? - do we burn too much coal?
should we park our dear cars and never use them
and never eat soo much meat as we do

Approximate lyrics in Swedish
Regnet
Det är något vi tar - för givet varje dag vi lever
det är regnet som ibland faller på oss - är det bra för oss?
eller en smärta för oss? - Det känns ibland så
när våra kläder har blivit blöta och vi fryser
och vi är långt hemifrån

Våra kroppar innehåller mycket vatten
och brist på vatten gör oss allvarligt sjuka - så vi behöver regnet
till en viss mängd - men ge oss precis vad vi behöver
För mycket vatten runt oss kan vara farligt
vi kan drunkna i floden nära vårt hem

Men något har hänt med regnet - vi vet inte vilken dag det kommer
det har förändrats mycket de senaste åren - varför är det så?
är det vårt eget fel? - bränner vi för mycket kol?
ska vi parkera våra kära bilar och aldrig använda dem
och aldrig äta så mycket kött som vi gör

The Rain version two

FIRST OF ALL, I WILL SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL WONDERFUL PEOPLE THAT LISTEN TO MY SONGS - LOVE YOU ALL!!

Dear friends, I worry more and more about the state of the earth! More and more wars flare up, the climate is worrying with natural disasters as a result! Strong malevolent rulers emerge and succeed in egging the population of the respective countries. History has shown how it goes - I think of such men as Hitler and others! The war causes huge emissions of greenhouse gases! Instead, use the soldiers to plant trees and fight the terrible forest fires!

The Baltic Sea is living dangerously right now! Scores of ships in deplorable condition transport oil across the sea. The risks are great for extensive oil disasters! I have made some songs for the Baltic sea just to make people understand the problems.

I have recently published some of my songs on YouTube - search for Bengt Roth.

I write almost all of my songs, and I sing my songs and play the guitar and the harp - no more. My recording equipment is quite modest with a Furch guitar, Alhambra guitar, Röde microphone, Focusrite and Garageband. My studio is our guest room in our house.
I was young during the 1960s when Dylan became famous. I was a member of a folk song group during that time. I love Dylan´s music!! I was also a big fan of The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Mamas and the Papas and several more singers. I like folk music and the old protest songs. I love the music of Eva Cassidy. I was also a big fan of Björn Afzelius, and I love the music of Tom Petty. I am very inspired of the music of John Denver.
Bengt and certainly several 100 million people are intensively protesting against all evil around the world!
I love to sometimes write songs that are a bit weird and self-ironic!
You know that I am a novice in the "recording business", and sometimes I have to revise the songs.
My whole grown up life was occupied by my profession as a doctor in intensive care and anesthesiology. I was head of the department of Intensive and perioperative Care in Lund, Sweden the last years. After that I have got the possibility to be dedicated to music. 
My songs are a matter of extreme happiness and extreme sadness. I write all the music and lyrics except "As tears go by", "House of the Rising Sun", and songs by Evert Taube.
I love to leave some message with my songs!
I have no previous experience of writing fiction. I have, however, some experience in writing non-fiction. I wrote my thesis, and some chapters in a textbook in anesthesiology. I was also member of a group who introduced an education program in pediatric cardio pulmonary resuscitation for laymen in Sweden.
I have created a repost page "Bengt Erik Roth Repost Page".
