I wish a few more birds had flown over on cue though…I wrote it about five years ago. I jotted down some of the things I saw as I sung one Autumn day and wrote it when I got home.LYRICSAs I sing the leaves are falling down,birds fly up high.A breeze blows all around me,dark clouds forming in the sky.As I sing a boy spins round in circles,a dog waits patiently.I feel the first chill of Autumn,but this is where I want to be.As I sing I hear a couple argue,a man puts out his cigarette.The song I really want to singis one I haven’t written yet.As I sing the leaves are falling down,birds fly up high.A breeze blows all around me,dark clouds forming in the sky.#busking #cigarboxguitar #slide #homemade #3string #singersongwriter #streetperformer

Thanks Digly. The composition was a bit of a fluke. I had my camera (Zoom Q2N) on a selfie stick which was clamped to my busking trolley handle. With no glasses and only a small screen to look at I could just about see that the mic stand was in it and that therefore I hopefully would be when I went back round to it! When I got home and looked at it I was disappointed to see that it was really back lit. After adjusting the lighting though it was hugely improved : -)

thanks Dennis
cheers A.D : -)
Great tone on this one B !
thanks Poorness and Dave. I enjoy playing somewhere like this more than playing in a pub or something...
Beautiful Bee. Nice place to busk and you you look at ease and in your element.
Cool setting for a busk. Nicely played and sung.
thanks Brian : -)
Great song for such a picturesque backdrop, two thumbs up!!
Thanks a lot John. Voice wise I think I've learned to relax more...probably because I care less about what people think the older I get, lol!
