This blog spot is the home to my ramblings. I am a free lance writer. Most of my work goes on Associated Content. Sometimes I write what is on my mind, sometimes I plug some of my writing, and sometimes a combination of the two. So, sit back read, enjoy, and we will see where it goes.
Opening up my post with the song "A House is not a Motel" from Love. My daughter thought my parents lived in a hotel for the longest time when she was little.
My parents have a nice house five blocks from the ocean. When we were living farther away my parents like any Grandparents I have ever met, wanted to see their Grandchild. When they visited my parents would stay in a hotel. My daughter came to associate the hotel as the place my parents lived.
My parents were so glad when my daughter was able to visit them at their house so they could prove they don't live in a hotel.
Back to back shut outs on the Battle of the Bands for me. I went with John Sebastian back to back so I won't be going back to his songwriting well anytime soon. Only four votes this time. Of course this was the first time I've had a battle on the first in a long time. I am now doing the Battles twice a month.
The song I used was "Stories We Could Tell." The song was written by the shut out bringing John Sebastian. I pitted Jimmy Buffett against The Everly Brothers. The results were four to nil in favor of Jimmy.
The song fits Jimmy Buffett. He has the story telling down be it in the old tales he used to tell, the novels he has authored and in the songs that he sings.
I am going to celebrate with some stories in songs. Warning label there might be some adult language or topics in some of these songs..."God's Own Drunk"...
How about a "Semi-True Story"...
It waits behind "door number three"...
I hope you enjoyed and I will back with a new battle tomorrow! Come vote and no shut outs please!
