Well... it is my first song. It really is a chord sequence that changes with the time. I recorded it some months ago with my acoustic. All your comments will be welcomed.

Dogbite, Dan, thank you very much. You are my friends! :oops:

I'm only partially happy with it (as usual). It has a lot of mistakes. I don't know but the chords I chose were the worst chords I play, however, they sounded well to me and I wanted those chords.

I recorded it some months ago. Probably I could do better now... although no much better!

Thanks again!

Nuno,

Where are th lyrics? The guitar playing was fine, maybe a couple spots where there was some hesitation but they were minor. Very nice playing.

Now you need to take that and turn it into a song and sing for us! It is a very nice soothing progression, don't know how else to describe it. It would be interesting to play that progression twice through as an intro and then come in with some screaming electic guitar and take it up a notch.

Great job though and dog was right you've been holding out on us haven't you?

It's a long way to the top if you want to rock n roll!

Nuno, I can't open it. Do you have another link, like the one to your artist page? I can click on it from there.....

It's not just you, Roy
I can't get it either.
It was working earlier.

First, thank you very much for all your kind words! :oops:

Now...

Dogbite: Yes, I agree. I always am my worst critic. I sent it to some friends and they told me they liked the song very much. The first part is easier, they just are 'normal' chords. The second and third parts are harder because there appear some suspended and other sort of chords. However, my worst chord is always the Dm open chord! But I want that song in Dm.

Ken: Thanks! :lol:

Chris: Lyrics... I have enough problems with my hands to include also my voice! Moreover I'm not good with words. I'm not saying I were good with music! But I daren't do it. Thank you very much for the suggestion. However, I will think on how to include an electric on that progression. Something like the Metallica's Unforgiven? It is a great idea! :D

Roy: Try this link: http://www.soundclick.com/gnunoise . The song is called 'July', it is the first one. There are also some old recordings, instruction books exercises.

Very nice. I'm having listen right now. You should be proud of it.
