PLAYING THEIR GAMES

You could say it was the call of the wild
You could say you've become beguiled
You could  that you need it all now
You could say life is some how
Hard to be
Hard to shine
Hard to love
Hard to be kind


Who are you to judge
Who are you to say what's right
What's wrong
What should be

Because I am no one
Yes I am no one
I don't judge
I don't say what I believe
I just go along with everything
Some say I'm a fool
Just a tool for others to get their way
I don't care what they say
I'm just being me
Being me
i'm just being me
i'm just being me
 


I've had enough of their games
I've  had enough of their toying with me
I've had enough of their game
I just want to be me   


Every day is the same
The news is always bad
Life is sad

If you play their games
If you play their games
If you play their games   


You could say it was the call of the wild
You could say you've become beguiled
You could  that you need it all now
You could say life is some how
Hard to be
Hard to shine
Hard to love
Hard to be kind
Hard to be
It's hard to see while playing their games

I know you are a really good actor Reggie and a fine musician too.

Always different, always dramatic and always full of energy.

Just heard this over on the other side... WOWSERS

Been away for a bit, so a lot of catching up to do, and this was one of the first things I picked to listen to... (mainly cos it the notification email arrived while I was pondering!! ;D ;D ;D)

And it didn't disappoint.

This SO good.

Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later
When I'm gone

This is brilliant Reg... beautiful... those lyrics are soooo good. And the music is wonderful, so delicate but powerful too. Your vocal is so good on this... I can hear the full range in your voice, lots of light and shade telling a great story. Loved this one (deserves a few more comments!!?)

Reg wears his emotions on his sleeve and they are clear for all to see. Brilliant vocal performance and great production. I'd love to know more about how you did this. The percussion is great and doesn't sound like it's been programmed, and there's some very cool sounds in the instrumentation.

A great track, a really enjoyable listen.

Quite simple really Nigel I recorded the piano midi then copy and pasted on to the percussion track and knocked of all the notes that were too high, also added a xylophone track taking out some of the notes to make it sound like it's another recorded track ....While I'm here thanks all for listening and all the nice comments
