I'm a little uneasy about making an entire thread for this song due to its controversial nature. Ill just stick it here and in the soundcloud thread as well. I would hate to start any arguments between members. I think its good, and I hope everyone enjoys!


Without getting into politics, very cool song!

Is there a way to post sheet music or tabs here?
Like a plugin or configuration to the board or something?

Can't recall if I shared these here on the forums already or not, but just in case, here are a couple of tunes my friend Nick and I recorded a few months ago. (Well, actually, better stated: they're Nick's tunes that I contributed a few parts to. :D ) One fun Petty-esque rocker and one melancholy thought-provoker. Can download them directly at the link below:

This was for a song challenge - "Animals" was the theme.

I think you've all seen that photo of my assortment of musical instruments. About a year ago, I put a few of them to good use and wrote, arranged, sang, and played all the instruments on an original song, as a tribute to all the Vietnam Veterans.

Image

I was all of about 7 or 8 years old during the heyday of Vietnam and two of my brother-in-law's were over there in the late 60's & 1970. I wrote the song from the heart from a little kids perspective after hearing all the stuff they talked about after they came back, and after remembering Walter Cronkite on the TV giving news reports every night too.

Drums = hand written percussion track, using Finale on my laptop (My wife won't let me have a real drumset in the house)
Bass = Me
Rhythm guitar = Me
Keyboards (organ mode) = Me
Trumpet = Me
Trombone = Me
Lead vocals = Me
Upper harmony (falsetto like the Bee Gee's) = Me
Lead guitar wah-wah solo = Me (done on the fly, in one take!)



Also, in the closing credits of the video, those are my two brother-in-law's names that I listed.

Jack Keery is also seen in a cameo in slideshow during the chorus where the lyrics go, "Vietnam Heroes, pray for all the names on the wall". My sister Linda and brother-in-law Jack went up to DC and visited the Vietnam Wall. It really hit Jack hard, as he saw all the names of the guys in his platoon on the wall, and spent about a week drunk out of his mind once they got back home. Tragically, he is only 1 of 6 out of his whole platoon that made it home safe and sound after the war.

My other brother-in-law James "Brute" Nowak, is also referred to in the lyrics, namely, "Hanging from a Huey way up in the sky..." As "Brute" was a doorgunner during Vietnam and hung out the door with an M60 machine gun. He always joked that the life expectancy of a doorgunner was 15 minutes, so I added that also to the lyrics. Tragically, that last line in the verses also is in honor and memory of "Brute" as he succumbed to heart failure and cancer due to exposure of Agent Orange. When I played this song for my sister Karen, she cried...

Lastly, yours truly has a cameo in the slideshow during the lyrics "I was just a little kid when you went away to war". That is a photo of me in 4th grade in 1970.

Thanks... It was just a rough demo that I created using Audacity on my laptop. I have all the original tracks saved, lyrics sheet printed out, and everything burned to CD. I'd love to take the tracks to a real studio and see what it would sound like, remixed with professional equipment. Or, buy some studio time and re-record everything.

One thing I keep wanting to add is a sax to the horn section, but even though I can play sax, I don't own one. (My daughters played sax in school band, and naturally I picked it up and learned how to play it too).
