1017 . Paul Murphy - 'My Children' (take 11 - fingerpicked) - parental ode of love to children
Fourth cut from Session 2 on my new song, an ode/eulogy to my - and yours, should you sing it to them - amazing children. As with Take 10, pitched slightly too high (especially for early on a sub-zero winter morning), but this seems to be most people's favourite so far, I guess for the feeling, more than the technical aspect, of the performance.



Over the course of the 2 sessions, I changed the song around to see how it worked other ways - first-verse repeat in Take 1, adding a chorus on Take 3, slowing it right down on Take 4, swapping the top-strings riff to a bottom-strings riff, finger-picking on Take 11 here, and more; if you wish to follow the evolution of the song, the video numbers run 1009 to 1020.


As ever, the sessions are nice and loose - hence the 4-minute shaggy-dog story before I actually start playing! tune up before starting? Just sing and get out? Work the new arrangements out first? Sacriledge. You've given me your time, so I play 'em to you the same as I would if you were in my front room, or in my audience. You don't get this with Adele, you know!

Love and peace,

Paul M

Whilst here, if I may be so bold.... I have several several books available, including a series of my song lyric/prose anthologies (details below). Amazon let you view the first 10 pages free as a preview, which will give you an idea of the contents, especially helpful on my comedy books.

If you do, at any time, go to Amazon or elsewhere and purchase any of my comedy, children's titles, or poetry/lyric books, thank you with my extreme gratitude for that, because all royalties go into trust for my beautiful children, Dylan and Emily Jade.

Love and respect,
Paul
