Here is a tongue in cheek experiment I put together a while back...
Hope you enjoy watching & listening...
The lyrics are embedded on the video but I will also include them here below the video...

Song: Gone.MGU
Style: Gone.STY



She's Gone © J Hughes

She gave me one last chance to change my foolish ways
I did not believe her and now I'll have to pay
Yes she's gone and I'm alone
I did not believe her and now she's gone

I wish I could go back I really wish I could
But now its all over so wishes do no good
Yes she's gone and I'm a lone
I did not believe her and now she's gone

If she'd take me back now I'd try to change my ways
But now its all over she left me here today
Yes she's gone and I'm a lone
I did not believe her and now she's gone

I did not believe her and now she's gone

Hi Jim,

Your song reminded me of JJ Gale (no offense...), but of course yours sounds much better.
That sologuitar, or is it a Sitar, is very nice in it.
And the rhythm, that does it all.

Thanks Jim,
Hans

Very nice. As stated by Hans, a little J J Cale sound here. Also, I hear a little Jerry Reed feel in it as well.

Good job!

Thanks, Ember...
The donkey's image was a polite way to show that this man acted like a foolish "dumb" associate (remove the "ociate")... wink

Nice work on this smile Flows really nice and I get that tongue-in-cheek effect here. Very easy on the ears, and a nice and playful tune.

Thanks for sharing!
