Thanks for your listen and comment Marthie on my Prelude 0822. It was appreciated. All my best intentions went out the window sadly!

I agree the muse speaks through us. Well done you did great work this summer!

You're welcome. I guess you have to do this right after writing otherwise you forget. Same as writing tabs when I wrote something on guitar
Congratulations - you nearly finished triple 50/90 !

Such a fab job you did, Marthie, putting my "In Flight" lyrics to music and vocals! Thanks so much!

I love the underplayed piano that you chose to go with musically here--with your vocals riding it, and also stepping aside at key moments in the piece, to let the music play, further haunt, lead, and prod continuous listen.

You did such a nice music-vocal mix here that brought my lyrics to life in a hauntingly-magnificent way! Fab to know that my lyrics spoke to you so personally that you wanted to bring them to life in song. Much appreciate you having done so!

Can I teach you to procrastinate what a productive fawn you have had . thx for all your input chat soon

Thx for finding time in your crazy schedule to collab on unfixable

Hi interesting 5090 u having. I probably have adhd too but too scared to be tested! You an awesome person and I’m thankful our lives collided still not sur how that happened 1 common friend on FB chat soon

If you have time to, you can do another. Maybe Blindfolded or That Little Voice?

Thanks for stopping by and checking out "Tea", Marthie, I appreciate it.

Hey, if you're interested :) https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/8194

I'll have to record both! I'm still Minnie at the moment!

Thanks and my voice sounds just like Minnie Mouse 😊

If you want another ghost song :) https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/7161

Thank you for your kind comments

Great!

If you have time and want to, I wrote this ghost story song https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/6317

Thx Marthie lovely job as always on my lyrics! Can you believe we have done about 2 each Fawm and each 50/90 for 5 years. Perhaps it time for an album of them?

I agree! I love both versions

You are having a great 5090 Marthie.

Hi Marthie, thank you for your kind update. Looking forward to it.

Thank you Marthie. As I am with yours... Your creative output is amazing. How do you find the time to do it all?

I hope your so is doing well. No hurries and let all your writing keep going!

You are a mad woman! I'll never catch up reading or listening. But, I wondered if you would like my Be a Crow?

No 2

Your hand in my mine

Put your little hand in mine
You know that it will be fine
Like a picture perfectly drawn
Walk with me through to dawn

Pass the shadows of the night
Knowing that all will be right
Optimism and visualizing
Till sun appears on the horizon

Hand in hand in hand
Hand in hand in hand!
Together hand in hand

Hold on tight as day unfolds
No one knows what beholds
Move on forward with endeavor
Know that its better when were together

Simple pleasure all we ask
Never matter what the task
Wherever we are across this land
We stay together hand in hand

Hand in hand in hand
Hand in hand in hand!
Together hand in hand

Hand in hand in hand
Hand in hand in hand!
Together hand in hand

Ok here is no1

The Beach

All good stories should end on a beach
Why should this one be different

So let me tell you how it ends
Before you know the beginning
Then maybe you’ll find it hard to tell
A loss from one thats winning

A look a smile a wave goodbye
No angst for one to see
Everyone seems happy
What will be will be

Agreed thats how it should be
No other option open
Sometimes things cant be fixed
When they seem this broken

There were of course those happy days
Of honeymooning fun
But it soon was obvious
That those days had run

But we stopped before it went to far
Love did not come to hate
We still had enough command
Before it got too late

We knew we had run our race
More was out of reach
And is we said in the beginning
It ended on the beach

Coming very soon

having a six year old daughter gives me no option but to turn the pages back to childhood.

Hi Marthie! Added a link to the resources for Schlaflied für kleine Häschen to the song post, https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/4327 . My wife is a huge fan of the Dutch language, and we'll be staying in the Netherlands for the next 2 weeks for vacation. Not really exactly the same, of course, but really looking forward to an Afrikaans version of this! 😊

CBG=Cigar Box Guitar Alas not Cannabis, of which i have no experience whatsoever (other than professional botanist). Amazingly in my generation of students, neither Deborah nor I ever even tried it. Me, because I couldn't afford it and besides, I was already addicted to nicotine and KNEW I couldn't control that habit, so what were the chances of controlling a new habit that I couldn't afford at all, at all??

It sounds wonderful to me! Did you also send it to Nadia?
Also, I just wrote this children's song based on a 6 year old's comments. https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/3960

Hi Marthie, thanks for the kind words on NCC-5090! 😊 So good to hear the wait was somehow worth it. 😄

Thanks Marthie

Haha! It is pretty funny! :)

They only say the same thing over and over? Or am I missing something?

Ok cool. Working hospice today so it may be a bit

Thank you Marthie, awesome. Have a wonderful weekend.

Okay, great!

:))

Oh sorry. No it's not rock. Nadia did some lovely piano. Do you want her to send it?

No, I wasn't the one who did "Catch The Moon" with you :(

Thank you, Marthie, for the kind words about I Hate Love.

Hi Marthie, thank you for reaching out and the offer to collaborate, I would love to do that as I've been an admirer of your work from afar for a while now. My collaborations tend to be me concentrating on writing melodies and song arrangements to already written (or half written) lyrics rather than the other way around so I suppose the question might be "do you have lyrics that we can both put music to?" I have been toying with the idea of just writing sets of lyrics to see if I can do it and if that's the case I'd be more than happy to send them your way to see what you can do with them. BTW... Thank you so much for your comments on "Back To Me" :)

Hi Marthie. I've written a lyric called Fly High and Nadia put some lovely music to it. Would you be able to sing it at some point?

I wondered about this one? https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/2848

Glad you liked the country version of I Hate Love. Your comment brought me to your page. I see that I have some fun listening ahead of me! Thanks!

Cool! I will definitely keep you in mind! That would be fabulous!

Thank you :)

Thanks for your comment on "Jaclyn" - did you have a certain track in mind to topline?

Thank you for your kind comment on Jack-in-the -box! Glad you enjoyed it!

Likewise, thank you for your kind comment, Marthie.

I always listen to hear your voice Marthie :-)

Hey. Wondered if you'd like if you have time to do my So Many Things I wrote today?

Hi friend would you consider collaborating on my carnival song?

The YouTube channel is linked in my profile.

I messaged you

Thanks for listening! Haha, no way! I'm just a composer / arranger who knows how to deal with a DAW. Instrumental playing and singing is not my deal. And I don't like listening to fake guitars and heavily autotuned voices. My songs go nuts with the right performers. And I love going nuts with tons of good recordings and big arrangements. Check YT to hear the difference...

Great Marthie! Maybe we can at some point. I'm going to be traveling soon to see my new Grandson!

Or, if you know someone to do a duet with https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/songs/1150. I also know of a couple ghost stories I could write about.

If you have time and want to, I'd love you to do my children's song.

Hope to see some songs here Marthie
