First song with the 2021 BIAB. Just thinking about the things some of us do for financial reward but some of us would do them anyway. A little twist in the tail. Vic https://soundcloud.com/vic-arnold/doing-it-for-nothingDoing it for nothing ©2020 Vic Arnold V.1 See him with the guitar sitting on a stool, bathing in the spotlight, looking kinda cool. Room's half empty. Everyone is quiet. Turns up the amplifier, starts a little riot. V.2 Writes a few love songs, Blues and serenades. Local promoter says "Son, you got it made". Come and light up my bar room any night or day. Free beer but you don't get paid Ch.1 Doing it for nothing. Guitar and shades. Doing it for nothing. "Son, you got it made". Doing it for nothing. Don't get paid. Doing it for nothing but you'd do it anyway . V.3 See her with her friends walking 'cross the sand, picking up the plastic, needles and cans. Gets a nod of thanks and a picture in the press. Mentioned in the church mag. for cleaning up the mess. Ch.2 Doing it for nothing. Bagging up the trash. Doing it for nothing. No a whiff of cash Doing it for nothing on a rainy day. Doing it for nothing. She'd do it anyway. V.4 Had a reputation for dealing in dope. Got a little problem on a slippery slope Now he stands on the corner smoking his weed. Looking for a handout. Mind gone to seed. Ch.2 Doing it for nothing. White cane and shades. Doing it for nothing. No job, no trade. Doing it for nothing. Don't get paid. Doing it for nothing. He'd do it anyway.

Hi, Vic:
You may want to double-check your song uploaded correctly. For me, it's not playing anything on Soundcloud. I can play pretty much anything else on Soundcloud, including Aces and Eights, so it might just be an upload issue. Then again I'm on retreat in the mountains with slow internet, so it could be me.
Cheers,
Deej

I like the three character vignettes, which support your some theme. Catchy chorus!

Hi Vic ...
Another great song from you. I always enjoy what I hear when I click onto one of your songs. I liked the "quiet" and "riot" rhyme. I agree with Ez about the chorus - really nice!
Best to you. Take care ...

Clever slice-of-life images fit well into your song. Nice work, I enjoyed it.

Vic,
Glad I came back for the listen. Definitely in ear worm territory with that chorus. Nice write and pjroduction—particularly like that lead solo. The whole song has a Mark Knopfler vibe to it, but totally you in the execution. Solid, solid tune.
Have a Happy. New Year!
Deej

Hi Deej. Happy new year to you too. I am a MK fan so the influence would likely creep in.
Thank you for returning.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
