Lyrics

Don`t try to fix it and don`t try to care, don`t try to live without danger.
Don`t try to use it and don`t try to share, don`t try to go any further.

Deep in their eyes, there`s nothing than lies, they`re tellin` `bout future and hope.

Don`t try to use it, don`t try to be fair.

Anybody else can play that.

Gimme your future and gimme your past.
Gimme your nighttime and daylight.
Gimme your freedom and gimme your last
senses of humor and "Goodbye".

Deep in their eyes, nothing than lies,
telling `bout future and hope.

Don`t try to use it, don`t try to be fair.

Anybody else can play that.

Don`t try to fix it and don`t try to care.
Don`t try to live without danger.
Don`t try use it and don`t try to share.
Don`t try to go any further.

This is not life or what it should be.
You`re lonely, afraid every night..
Don`t try to use it, don`t try to be fair.

Anybody else can play that....

	Lovely Lovely melody accompanied by excellent guitarwork. Excellent vocals - especially when the backups kick in. Maybe it's just me, but I would've like to hear another line right after "Anybody else can play that". It seemed to end too abruptly. But then again - that's just me. Anyway, great song.

	Good Song cool rhythm and lead guitar to go with it. Nice little song. Liked the lyrics overall but didn't think that the Anybody else can play that line was good enough for a hook. It just didn't convey enough of what the song was about. Check out my latest song called Strange Feeling

Nice one Ingo!
Tasty little treat Ingo - loved the vocals and especially the
incredibly accurate harmonies (I'm envious!). Guitar
playing also brilliant - though I couldn't help feeling the
need for bass and drums to kick in and take it away to a
different place. The rolling 3/4 feel really lends itself to
an extended instrumental ending.
Loved it!

	Freedom in 6/8 Marvelous. Starts off like an intimate demo and grows into wonderful dance of voice, with a great 70s letting go and living lyric. Very charming and worthy of many listens. Thanks for digging back and sharing this one! Jethro Tull didn't make enough recordings, you make me miss them with this. Check out my latest song called Forge A New Life (MJRF)

	Don't Try to Fix it. Love your guitar playing. Wish I had half the licks you do. You've got a great voice, too...the doubled vocals are the only thing I'd change up...maybe a harmony instead. Great stuff. Check out my latest song called Story of Her Life

stevel snuck in ahead of me...
...with the Jethro Tull thing....

The vocals, particularly at the "deep in their eyes" point,
have that mid-period Ian Anderson sound, just a little...
and the guitar interplay has some of that "Cheap Day
Return" feel...

Since these are favorites of mine, this is a good thing.

On its own merits, the song is well written, the vocal
doubling sounds very cool to me, and the guitar lines
intertwine perfectlly...Love the intro riff.... Great melody...

	Sad but true About song, it is just great! Guitar and voice match perfectly. I like the political theme, it just fit perfect at any time, even 15 years later. It is sad to know that. I like it!!

Fresh And Clean
With fetching vocal and acoustic work, the manner of the
piece becomes the message. The positve affirmation of the
melody truly invites the one addressed by the lyric to find
center and embrace that "danger" present in the "lonely" and
[sic] fearful night.

A fine lyric brilliantly delivered, shunning the cynicism
available. Reminding me in part of Dylan's -To Ramona-.

Nicely done.

Symbolism?
I was reading the lyrics, and it almost sounded like you were
singing about the evil of drugs (Don't try to use and don't try
to share) . Then i read your explanation of the song's
message, that you were referring to politicians.
Well, I was close. Ha-ha!

Anyway, awesome composition. Quite a perky tune to deliver
such a profound message! Perfect guitar-playing as always,
and you have a great voice with good control!

	good performance Your guitar playing is excellent on this tune, providing a very good harmonic and rhythmic accompaniment to the vocals. There is a lot of energy and vitality. Your voice has an interesting quality, almost nasal on this tune, which is perfect for these provocative, subtly cynical lyrics. Very well done! Check out my latest song called EPONYM

Time always will tell...
Man you you have a strinkly musical and 'reed instrument
like' voice. I know that this might hit you as an odd thing
to hear, esecially since I don't and can't associate it w/ the
particular closest match. This comment stems mostly,
from the thought that it sounds less like you're singing,
and more like you are actually blowing the words through
a reed or reed type of instrument. This is a compliment,
by the way, and I am wanting you to know how unique the
sound is, and how pleasant your 'playing' is to hear.

Nicer guitar accompaniment too. You do play this
instrument well also.

This is a nice piece, and it's time of orgin... well, that's
just confirmation of it's timelessness.

	Sign me up to the fan club So good. You add a very cool new thing to your voice and style in this one that I really like, whatever it is. You are really good. I am stunned by how professional this sounds and how cool. I hope you put out a CD someday (unless these are already from one?)
