Hello Everyone :)
Well here it goes. My name is Andre Longtin and im just your average joe. (joe being my middle name;) I started writing not more so than 4 years ago. I'm a one stop kinda guy when it comes to writing music lol. Ill have a whole song down in one sitting for it's like a mouth full of puke, out and done.
I grew up around music all my life. My father would play old country tunes on the reel to reel back in the early 80's and to this day i can still remember and sing most of those songs lol. My mother a piano teacher, and her whole side is music, music, music. Easter everyone gets together and plays what ever they can, and as drunk as we can lol.
I, like you, NEED music to survive. Every waking moment theres a song playing almost like on repeat in my head. What ever best suits me for the day. When im upset i play either my guitar or uke cause it's soooo calming and better for me then booze or weed ;) lol.
Just want to say thanks everyone for listening. I can write and keep playing them to myself but the feeling disipates. Showing you just makes them real again!
PEACE!@ dre
so if you got some time left check out my new tune. I did it today with lots of Lucy in the Sky with Diamomds. Wish you a very happy and succesful new year. Leave me something bout how you like it. Greetings from bavaria
Writing allows us to express pain, love, spirit of gold, hot molten hate and sorrow for those gone too soon. Script permits jaunts of treasures bold and spiral stories rhythmically told. Eyed New Year resolutions of old, scold me when in forget of you. …two thousand and ten will bring you, with all hope and so until then, love life and time spent in both leavened mind and big steaming bread. Manna surprises us all in years to come, because breath takes time to reveal such luck. Smile my friend and rejoice in this time of life. Thank you for the replies, thank you for the time to say hi.
Yoooo, I'm sorry if I already commented you, I'm just trying to get the word out!
We just put up a new song! Its called "With Ears To See, And Eyes To Hear" If you didn't hear it yet, let us know what you think! We'd really appreciate it!
May Peace be your gift at Christmas and your blessing all year through!
A diamond shines no brighter than that lovely Christmas star. It shines in all its brilliance; it's seen from near or far. A symbol of the Christ child as He lay upon the hay, It tell to all the waiting world a King was born that day. O Bethlehem Star keep shining - give us faith and hope and love. Keep our thoughts forever turning to the Savior up above. Give us strength and hope and courage to do our best by far And never falter in our faith as we watch that Christmas star..
As you well know, we are getting closer to my birthday. Every year there is a celebration in my honor and I think that this year the celebration will be repeated. During this time there are many people shopping for gifts, there are many radio announcements, TV commercials, and in every part of the world everyone is talking that my birthday is getting closer and closer.
It is really very nice to know, that at least once a year, some people think of me. As you know, the celebration of my birthday began many years ago. At first people seemed to understand and be thankful of all that I did for them, but in these times, no one seems to know the reason for the celebration. Family and friends get together and have a lot of fun, but they don't know the meaning of the celebration.
I remember that last year there was a great feast in my honor. The dinner table was full of delicious foods, pastries, fruits, assorted nuts and chocolates. The decorations were exquisite and there were many, many beautifully wrapped gifts. But, do you want to know something? I wasn't invited. I was the guest of honor and they didn't remember to send me an invitation.
The party was for me, but when that great day came, I was left outside, they closed the door in my face...and I wanted to be with them and share their table. In truth, that didn't surprise me because in the last few years all close their doors to me.
Since I was not invited, I decided to enter the party without making any noise. I went in and stood in a corner. They were all drinking; there were some who were drunk and telling jokes and laughing at everything. They were having a great time. To top it all, this big fat man all dressed in red wearing a long white beard entered the room yelling Ho-Ho-Ho! He seemed drunk. He sat on the sofa and all the children ran to him, saying : "Santa Claus, Santa Claus".... as if the party were in his honor !
At 12 midnight all the people began to hug each other ; I extended my
