Slowplay by name and slowplay by nature on this one

I have nothing to say other than this made it on to my iPod I liked it straight away.

Excellent stuff

Anyways, I agree with everyone. There's no problems here really. Great job, I enjoyed this a lot.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group Kevin72790 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg5-week-18-if-im-honest/#post-233101 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg5-week-18-if-im-honest/#post-233085 Sat, 10 Mar 2007 01:48:25 +0000
Cool MP3, your voice is reminiscent of someone's, can't put a name to it just now, but nicely played, well sung....I like it!

:D :D :D

And I agree with him ""Bloody good mate".

I might even say thats a "Rip-Snorter"

I like finger picking something I try to do , the voice is wonderfully wrapped with in the music ..

Terrific stuff

good to see you're still around. In the words that my trans-Tasman mate will relate to: "Bloody good mate". I think your phrasing is fine. I can't see anything here that jumps out at me an says "please change". I think the mp3 is paced just nicely.
cheers

As always, feel free to take a listen ( some of the phrasing isn't exactly what I'd like, but this is pretty much what I had in mind ):

If I'm Honest
©2007 Robert Gowland

Verse 1:
Chasing you as your train pulls away from the station
Catch your tears in a vial to wear around my neck
Or maybe, kiss you softly on your cheek
Watch you walk out that door for the last time

Pre chorus:
The pen's ready to write your last good-bye
But if I'm honest I have to say

Chorus:
I'm not ready to write you out of my story
I'm not ready to write you out of my story, yet

Verse 2:
Fingers stained black tracing our story line
Looking for foreshadowing to inform the ending I can't find
That deserves to be filled with bittersweet irony
The end of you and me

Pre chorus:
Paper cuts from pouring through these pages
But if I'm honest, that's not why I find it hard to write today

Chorus:
I'm not ready to write you out of my story
I'm not ready to write you out of my story, yet

Bridge:
How could you leave
Without making a final scene
Leaving it up to me?

Chorus:
I'm not ready to write you out of my story
I'm not ready to write you out of my story, yet]]> Sunday Songwriters Group SlowPlay https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg5-week-18-if-im-honest/#post-24481
