Country
A simple lyric about the power of nature to heal and how a simple walk in the country can put everything right again. I was never going to write a ‘country’ song – wouldn’t know where to begin, so I took a different take on it. I hope you enjoy it!
Excellent Simon.
The melodies structures took me back to one of my all time fav
Bands CS&N. I mean that in a like thank you way. Really enjoyed it.
This song has a gently quirky appeal – definitely pulls you in
Thanks Phil! I have to confess to being almost completely uneducated about their musical output – it must have filtered through to me subconsciously – thanks again
Thanks Kris, it’s definitely quirky and it was even quirkier before my wife told me to change it. Encouraging words Kris – thanks again
Really like this one. Got gradually drawn in. The backing vocals really add something
Thanks Mark – glad you got something from it. I enjoyed writing it
Nice laid back feel Simon. Great take on the challenge
Hi Huw – I had no idea how to write a ‘country’ song so I had no choice. I always enjoy the challenge though.
When I see your name attached to a song, Simon, I always know I’m going to enjoy listening. Engaging lyrics and I know the ideas and melody will lead me somewhere interesting.
If I don’t get to the woods for a few days, my head seems to get clogged. It’s where everything seems to be rebooted. I really enjoyed this. Thank you for writing & taking me on a walk in my head & heart.
Always a pleasure to hear from you Suzanne…perhaps I had you in mind when I wrote this, but we do under value the healing power of the natural world that we are a part of.
Nice one Simon. Nice to hear a country song with a little swing to it.
Really enjoyed this Simon (you know I’m a fan) has a “groovy” 60s feel to me, loving the chord choices, theme and production. Top stuff
Good one, Simon, loving the 60s vibe here!
Sorry i havent replied before now – terrible troubles with getting onto the site. I wasn’t able to vote for anyone else or see their songs. I have just managed to get back on. A 60’s vibe…….I had better have another listen
