Hello Captain,
You hate your voice, you're a beginner on the guitar...
You must be kidding us or yourself. However, I heard some other songs from you as well, like Void (v2).
This was also badly sung and horribly played, as you might put it. But I really like your 'bad performances'.
So continue making more of those awful songs and I become your fan!
But, whatever you do, stay on that Bluesside. You're very good on that. You sound like that other, bad singing guy, some here already mentioned. I believe he's called Robert Gray...
And maybe one day, you also believe yourself you can play a guitar and sing a song. I'd love to be there on that day!
Hans

Hans, You gave me a good laugh this morning, thank you.  I guess self doubt is always a challenge. When I began creating my own songs a handful of people encouraged me to keep going and put my stuff out there. That was quite a frightful idea but, I did it and just kept going. At this point, I've written/recorded almost 200 songs. I can't be the judge as to whether any of them are good or bad, that's for the listener to determine. I know my style will appeal to a limited audience and I hope to keep delivering music they enjoy. I'm always hopeful that my songs will touch somebody and I'm very grateful when somebody enjoys my work and takes the time to share a some encouraging words. I've listened to several of your songs. I like what your doing. Some worthwhile messages! Keep them coming. So Hans, Thanks again. Maybe you'll like this one: https://soundcloud.com/captainmoto/money-machine

Hi CaptainMoto,
I'm very late to the party, but I'm happy I could still make it.
Because this is a wonderful song. You're playing and singing the Blues? I'm your man right from the start!.
And if this is just "learning guitar", it makes me feel like pressing my nose against the window pane of a musical shop, wondering if I could ever hold one of those guitars presented there the right way round... You're far too modest.
If you hadn't written about your age I would never have assumed that you're retired: Your voice sounds a lot younger... And I do like the way you use it!
Liked that song right from the start, very nice intro.
I was a bit surprised that none of our forum friends reacted to that 'psychological' background you gave.
Everyday's violence and everyday's violent reactions to it - very disturbing. I must be about your age, have lived in a major city for many , but neither me nor any of my friends has ever been in such a situation and I simply do not know a single guy of my age who has ever considered learning self-defense stuff. I'm not claiming that there's no violence over here, but it's pretty much against all odds to become a victim of violent actions performed in the public.
What a terrible thought to feel that unsafe when you're leaving your home, very hard to really relate to that... I do hope you won't lose your mild side !
All the very best,
Stefan

CaptainMoto, This is very cool slow tune. I liked it a lot. Arrangement, vocals guitar A+. The only thing, I would curb or swap is synth, but that is a matter of taste  Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Stefen,
Thanks for your support of my music.
Yes, I am still just learning and at my stage of life, I need to just run with what I've got.
As I said I've always hated my voice but, I guess it's good enough for what I do.....thanks.
Most of my songs have story or inspiration behind them and I'm pleased when somebody actually gets the message.
Thanks again for you kind words.
moto

Thanks Misha,
A+ ? yikes.....now I've got nowhere to go but down.
I'wasn't 100% pleased with the Synth organ either but, it's done...time to move on.
