New Song Added – There Will Never Be Another

You know.
I have been attempting to go back and create lots of music
just like how I used to.

I actually am starting to line up a bunch of songs for me to cover.
I even replaced my guitar strings and cleaned up my Music room.
But every time I set myself up to start with the arrangements, I get sick.
It’s like nature’s way of shutting me up.
It prevents me to cause auditory discomfort to all of you.

So, I went back and tried to scour my old music archives
and found this.

There Will Never Be Another
by Amy Grant

I covered this way back in 2007.
I think I was sick when I did this. You can hear it from my singing.
Or maybe not.
I just sound a little on the horrible side.

So here is,
There Will Never Be Another


Music by Amy Grant.
Voices and Guitars by – Ty Martell

Oh! And on the lyrics, it’s actually “A hundred and three.”
Not “A hundred and tree.”

I told you I was sick.

Lyrics start here:

Friday Five – Music Stuff

It’s actually Sunday, but I date posted this as a Friday,
Just to give the illusion that I did this on time.

Sometimes I don’t even know why I bother,
because you and I both know that I am going to mess up
the answers to these questions.

But then again, that’s just how I like it.

So here we go.

1.) What was the first CD/Record/Album/Artist you ever bought
and what format was it in? (Vinyl/Cassette/CD/MP3 Download)?

–On Vinyl,
My Sharona. (The Knack)
I discovered a bit of Guitar Rock way back then.

On Casette,
Seven And The Ragged Tiger. (Duran Duran)
I discovered that these guys were actually pretty good musicians,
even though they were overplayed.

On CD,
The Best of Air Supply. (Air Supply)
Because I discovered that listening to Air Supply does not make you gay.
It actually makes you look like a one bad-ass mother(shutyourmouth)

2.) How do you usually listen to music? (iPod/Walkman/Stereo/Radio)
–Usually with my eyes closed.
But just for the sake of this question.
While driving.
(Eyes not closed)

3.) What is your favorite genre of music and why?
–I can go all the way from Jazz, to Ballads, to Country, to Classical.
But is there anything better than playing and listening to ROCK?

4.) What is your opinion on music video shows and music television?
–You know, in the old days, (and by old, I mean the 80’s)
Music Videos are like movies.
They tell stories and even have pretty good plots.
Not to mention good music.
Just don’t ask me for an example because I can not think of any.

5.) Do you usually agree with who the winners of the Grammy Awards are?
–You know in the old days, (and by old, I mean when artists used to have talent)
Awards were given to those who actually deserved it.
Nowadays it is given to the most popular.

That’s why I never win any awards.
I am both unpopular and have no talent.

Unless if you consider my excellent love making skills a talent.
Then I am a GOD.

Ladies.
Call me.

Just not right now.
Family Guy is on in 5 minutes.

A funny thing happened on the way to the backyard.

Enter scene:

Father and 3 year old son,
walking towards the backyard.

Father, holding his coffee cup,
sat by the patio chairs.

3 year old son,
with toy cars in hand,
also sat by the chairs,
putting his toys on the table.

As Father takes a sip of his coffee,
3 year old son, adjusts his chair to get situated,
accidentally hits his leg under the table.

BAM!

3 Year old son shouts,

“Ouch!”

(Silence)

“Damn it!”

Exit scene:

Father, wiping his mouth,
after spitting coffee.

He must have picked that up from either Blues Clues,
or Dora the Explorer.
Or his Mother.

Because “Father”, still swears in Filipino.
Well.
He tries, at least.
