| Me, as "Hopalong Ginsberg"
Posted on 07/31/2014 1:05:12 PM PDT by Slings and Arrows
After a great deal of hard work and numerous cuss words I've finally recorded my first song. The song is titled "Your Daddy Was Drunk and Your Mama Was Lonely," and I don't think that I can add much to that. If you like country music, or even if you don't, I'd appreciate if you'd give it a listen and give me your honest opinion. (Yes, I know what I'm in for by saying that, and no, no Butthurt Report Form will be necessary.)
A few quick notes:
1) When I registered with ASCAP "Slings and Arrows" was taken, so I used "Hopalong Ginsberg" instead. (A free virtual lollipop to those who catch the reference.)
2) Yes, I know what my voice sounds like. That's why I'm an aspiring songwriter instead of singer.
3) If you like the song, or even if you don't like the song, you can download the MP3 for free here. Take two, they're small.
4) So that I have an excuse to ping my kitty ping list:

You have a nice voice, SA&. Really.

I think you may have missed your calling!I'm flattered. I'm also not dead yet.
Seriously, I love songwriting, but expect it to stay a hobby. OTOH, hobbies can take people places...

It’s hard to reproduce a good moaning country-fiddle on a synthesizer but that single note at a time concert violin has got to go LOL. Otherwise a cute song. Congrats !!

If you’d like to link to my song, you are more than welcome, especially since I don’t have a Facebook page.
