it shouldn't be so hard (ruff mix) by honker

[Oldrottenhead]

the words

It shouldn't be so hard
But that's the way it is
And as you find the answer
Another question is asked
The endless possibilities
Just beyond your reach
Could there ever be anything
More inspiring

It shouldn't be so hard
To know just what you're thinking
But I'm too blind to see
From the centre of the universe
I watch it all pass by
Straight above my head
And on
Into oblivion

It shouldn't be so hard
But that's the way it is
And as you find the answer
Another question is asked
The endless possibilities
Just beyond your reach
Could there ever be anything
More inspiring

It shouldn't be so hard
To make a new connection
To see things from another's view
Agree to disagree
Or an epiphany
Could there ever be anything
More inspiring
It shouldn't be so hard
But that's the way it is
It shouldn't be so hard
But that's the way it is

Dear me this is beautiful.  You are a very good acoustic player Ken.  Your like the total package on guitar.  Your vocals are very good here.  Nice change to electric.  If It were me I'd be tempted to toughen up the vocals in the two middle verses where there is electric guitar.  I would double the vocal and sing it a little harder for the contrast.  Thats what my ears were looking for.  Great song.  I love the acoustic to electric back to acoustic.

[Gnasty]

This is a really catchy and wicked song. Jim's vocals and the music are catchy. Yes Ken, i really like that acoustic you got going too. You are talented!

I can also hear you both singing on this one but overall i cant wait for the final mixdown.

[FuzzFace]

This is great!

I love when the electric guitar kicks in... what a payoff!

Really good song, gentlemen.

[Kenneth]

You are talented!

Now we are talking guys, you turned a great song into a monster song.  I am all a-shiver with admiration for how good this sounds now.

[Tony W]

Great song! I'm on the 5th listen, and keep melting into this one. Version 3... beautiful. Jim, start doing it right the first time.

Ken, your music is stellar.
