two different things : oldrottenhead

[Oldrottenhead]

a wee sappy short yin on the uke.

he headed south on a slow train
looking for himself
tried his hand in the fast lane
searching for some wealth
he didn't find no pavements of gold
but he found himself if the truth be told
cold and hungry lost and blind
dream and reality two different things
he headed south for the brightlights
so he could make his name
dreamt of living the highlife
and basking in fame
he didn't find no pavements of gold
but he found himself if the truth be told
cold and hungry lost and blind
dream and reality two different things

Nice song Jim , whistling Jim Rottenhead

[Geir]

your strumming is improving James !!

This is really lovely !

[Redler]

Nice chord progression, James!! Catchy song and brilliant whistling!

[Hook]

That's great brother, tell your mother! Your strumming does sound really smooth, consistent & laid back. The whistling just makes it perfect, was this LITLR?
Rock On!

[kenny mac]

Brilliant James ,I love this.
It's going on the piepod for sure.
I've noticed as well your uke playing is getting tighter and I love that whistling melody.
Brawness at its brawness.

[IanR]

I love this.

Simple, just the right length and beautifully balanced between vocal, uke and whistle.  A veritable GEM!

I wonder if you ever have any down time.  You're always producing something!  You must live in a house with no TV?

cheers,

Ian

Nice song Jim but the lyrics on this are absolutely superb. Great storytelling and wonderful use of language. You are a great, great lyricist sir, hat off to you. This is worthy of a bigger production job.....
