"Country Songs Don't Have Happy Endings" - my new song [vanity, vanity, all is vanity]

Me, via YouTube ^ | 9/5/14 | Me, as "Hopalong Ginsberg"

[Slings and Arrows]

OK folks, I've got a new song out. This is also a country song, but not a humorous one. (Not intentionally, anyway.) Once again, I'd appreciate it if you'd give it a listen and an honest opinion, preferably in that order. The waaaaahmbulance is standing by.

A few quick notes:

1) I did indeed record the song as "Hopalong Ginsberg." No, that is not an autocorrected spelling of "Slings and Arrows."

2) Yes, I know what my voice sounds like, so let's get this out of the way:

3) If you like the song, or even if you just want to inflict it on an enemy, you can download the MP3 for free here. Or here. But not here.

4) To justify pinging my kitty ping list:

Eating pudding?

To maintain the right mood, after the last chord I set the guitar player on fire, but it got buried in the mix.

[TADSLOS]

After you hear this one, you’ll start again.

LMAO!

I Like Your Style

[Gefn]

Groovy. I checked off “like” on both songs, btw.

[Slings and Arrows]

If I wrote a little song (just lyrics) would you sing it? I can’t sing to save a life, probably could take one though.

Maybe. I'm willing, but depending on the song a proper treatment may be out of my vocal range. Freepmail me.

[Slings and Arrows]

I dig your style too, man.

[Slings and Arrows]

Thank’ee, Miss.

[NormsRevenge]

I didn’t even listen but Good Luck!

Have you ever performed publicly?

I always wanted to be a singer..

But people kept unplugging the mic.

I’m clumsy so musical instruments were out..

Are kazoos still in fashion?

[NormsRevenge]

A proper treatment?

What?

Just go for it!

If the dogs wail, so be it.

[LucyT]

Please add me to your new ping list.

Thanks.

I don’t drink anymore. Is that going to affect my enjoyment of this song?

Lol. Play it backwards...you'll get your job back, your truck back, your wife back, your dog back...

[Slings and Arrows]

I was in a few garage bands in college. Our philosophy was “If you can’t be good, you can at least be loud.”

WRT instruments, trust me: If I can play, anyone can. (For the record, the guitar on the song is MIDI, but I can play.)

[Slings and Arrows]

Cool. Send it to me.

[GeronL]

I only remember 4 lines

I need to recreate what I wrote a long long long time ago

[Slings and Arrows]

I need to recreate what I wrote a long long long time ago

...in a galaxy far away?

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

In my drinkin days I would have been singing along with you adding to the enjoyment of everyone in the bar. Good job!

[Slings and Arrows]

Thanks! Have another round on me.

[martin_fierro]

But not here.
