Cloudy Days by Rolow

[Rolow]

I came on to post a song today, but the tunes I've listened to are so good, I almost backed out!

Humbly, here is my offering.  Hope you get a little smile out of it.

BTW, thoughts and prayers to my friends across the pond.  May peace reign.  Pay no attention to
the idiot trump.

Replaced song with new vocal on 6/7/17.

Cloudy Days

I love cloudy days, with a silvery haze
They're my favorite days, I find so many ways
To love these cloudy days
Peaceful cloudy days
Gotta hold on me

I stay at home, don't need to roam
It is my dome, where I write this poem
So I stay at home
I stay at home
And I play this guitar

chorus
Once in a while I trip and fall
I know where I'm going but I don't see it all
I might stand almost 6 feet tall
But I don't always hear when the good Lord calls

I grew a beard, hope you don't think its weird
Some people leered, but nobody jeered
At my fuzzy brown beard
It's only a beard
And it matches my shoes

I live and count my days, I know my mind and my ways
This isn't a phase, I love the silvery haze
Peaceful cloudy days
I love cloudy days
And I still love my life

chorus

Nice one, like the clap track. Great post.   Willie

Good track Ron... nice uplifting feel to it. I like the "It's only a beard, And it matches my shoes" line

Very catchy tune, Rolow - loved the guitars, handclaps, and fun lyrics. Not sure if you intended it this way, but your vocals sound like they may be slightly distorted? Doesn't really detract from the song at all, but thought it worth mentioning.

Rock and roll on!

[Super 8]

 "It's ONLY a beard, and it matches my shoes!" = possibly my favourite lyric of ALL time! Thumbs up from me ;-)

[Groundy]

Nothing wrong with this Ron,
real catchy number, well written and performed....

Thank you cuthbert!  I really appreciate the constructive criticism.  It's a big part of the value we have at SC.  I had thought there was something going on there.  I think I was moving in too close to the mic at times.  I've been uncomfortable with a very sore hip and am stuck in a wheelchair while I wait for a replacement.   Anyway, I was motivated to get a better setup and rerecord the vocal today and I think it's an improvement.  Thanks again!

brawtastic bro, i need to buy shoes that match my beard but i can't find salt n pepper coloured ones anywhere. this made me smile, which is a tall order during a general election. lol.

[Rata-tat-tat]

Well this quite the catchy tune Ron.... I dig it... well done!!!

[Redler]

Well composed and really fine vocal melodies! This is very catchy song! Hand claps works well!

Enjoyable listening!
