Hi Allan, I am very sorry for this. It was not my intention to disobey the forum rules. I have been very busy lately, and it has not come into habit to check the site quite enough and I had no idea that my song had gotten this much attention. I am very flattered by all the comments and it means very much to me. I have posted a few comments on some other songs though. The reason for me maybe not giving out comments is also that I have very little experience and therefore feel uninclined to give out comments since they come from someone who is so new in this business, where everybody seems further ahead of me. But I will take your comment into account.
Man you can sing! This could easily be Ed Sheeran singing this song. Damn I'm still listening to the song again and wrestling with the fact you have such a great voice.
I love everything about this. The vocals are superb and they match the lyrics and the guitar so well it makes the song so strong. The harmonies are spot on also.
I think you should heed Boydies advice re getting it 'fully produced' as IMO this song is ripe to be taken to the next level.
I really, really enjoyed this one and can't wait until it is 'finished' to hear it but don't leave me hanging until then. Bang up another one of your songs when the time limit between posts expires!
Thank you so much for this. This is an amazing comment, and I really appreciate what you have said. :-)
Welcome!!
This is excellent, really really strong song. Great guitar, great production, great vocals, all very funky and cool
Your first recording? hmm, are you sure...?
Thanks for sharing.
Hi habiTat Thank you for the compliments that is very nice of you!!!
This is my first recording yes. I got a friend to help me out, who had a microphone and a computer programme to sort out the "production" of the song.

PS. I would like to thank everybody for their comments. I have not checked the site enough, but I will definitely be doing it more regularly since people are so nice. I am very overwhelmed by all this :-)
The lyrics are:
Help me up off the ground
Finally I have been found
But the tunes they still don’t make any sense
While words are running through my head
I don’t even have a penny to spend
How do I even make use of this guitar?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
You ask questions like how are you,
Isn’t the answer the clear to you
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Is it just this state of mind
I can’t seem to leave behind
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
But don’t you worry you tell me to,
And is that really the honest truth?
What’s the reason for our worrying
Nobody told us were hurrying
Running off from life, it’s just in front of our eyes
Jumping off that bridge you say,
Young boy you’ve got reasons to stay
Your mother loves you and your daddy’s ok
So listen to me when I say
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
You ask questions like how are you,
Isn’t the answer the clear to you
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Is it just this state of mind
I can’t seem to leave behind
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
But don’t you worry you tell me to,
And is that really the honest truth?
So give me a chance to feel what’s real again
I don’t wanna post pictures to my instagram
The searching is longer than I thought
When you ask questions like you do
Are they really true to you?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
You ask questions like how are you,
Isn’t the answer the clear to you
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Is it just this state of mind
I can’t seem to leave behind
(Uh, uh, uh, uh)
But don’t you worry you tell me to,
And is that really the honest truth?
The honest truth….
But don’t you worry you tell me to,
And is that really the honest truth?
