It doesn’t stop me

It’s the 2nd of 3 songs written by Mick Paul and I a while back, that I have selected to upload. Ths one shows off Mick’s Bass skills a bit. I just wanted acoustic guitar and Bass in this, and I think it worked quite well. The vocals are a little off key in places. This song, and most of the others written with Mick. were written hours before they were recorded, so I’m not really surprised at the mistakes.

The song is about a contreversial subject, though I’m not going let you know what it means here. You’ll have to watch the video to discover it. I reveal the meaning at the end. It puts a whole new angle on the lyrics.

Getting back to Mick. Here’s some information on this very talented guy:

This is the guy doing all the music in this song. The previous song, and the next song.

Anyway. This one is called “Losing my mind”. I hope you enjoy it, and the Bass

Coming next is the third of the old original songs, featuring Mick Paul.
I’m still working hard on the album. Yesterday I woke up singing a song. Weird I know, but it was pretty good. I’m going to put the track together to see what it sounds like in real life, and if it makes the grade, then I’ll consider putting it on my album.
