For those of you on here who didn’t know me when I was only on Facebook. This was one of my early Christmas songs. Drums sound dated but this was 3 years ago and my friend from Scotland, Paula, helped me. This was the day 3 years ago we got told Christmas was cancelled by another lockdown.
Coming tomorrow……… JET!
No cover song this week, work has been so busy and I’m working on routes hundreds of miles from home. However, did get to go out last night with the band and perform for a sell out audience 👍
See you next week 👍
Guess who turned up in the latest Beatles video? It’s a scene from hard days night they’ve reused again. Mum told me she was in the movie in a couple of crowd scenes and you can see her 16 year old self in it. As soon as it came on the screen I knew it was that shot of her cause she used to pause the vhs and point herself out in her final years alive 😍 30 years after she died she shows up on the screen in her fave bands final single. Crying tears of joy.
Playing about with AI image creation 🤣😂
Sorry I’ve been a bit quiet over the last few days. I’ve been at We Have Ways fest. Having the time of my life and also helping to raise well over £5k for charity with our Hawaiian shirt night. Next year we go bigger and include music 👍. Now time for sleep 😂🤣
My Dad passed away this afternoon, he was my best friend as well as my Dad.
He will be sorely missed. I’ve been caring for him on a much more one to one basic since the start of March so his passing has created a huge hole in my life. It’s one of the reasons I’ve not posted as much recently. I will need to organise his funeral and then I’ll be back asap here.
I miss him already; he was such an awesome chap ❤️😍
Hold those close to you a little closer that night and see you soon 😍🙏
After yesterdays Ultravox cover I wanted to show this early cover I did over 2 years ago of their Hit ‘Vienna’ - take a look 👍
A month ago I was told my father may have just hours or days to live after his heart failure had some nasty complications. Over the last 2 weeks he’s made a remarkable comeback and is now out of danger. He’s a changed man, won’t be as mobile as he once was and will need more help from me and the family going forward. Now things have settled into a routine I should hopefully be back to releasing my cover songs and the odd original tune soon.
Some wonderful friends have been messaging me and keeping my spirits up thanks Tim, Pygmees and Claudio. You are all wonderful chaps and your messages really helped.
Hopefully I’ll see you all Sunday with my first video in a month.
I’ll try to catch up with all the videos I’ve missed over that time 😘
Unfortunately there will be no Sunday love song today due to family emergency. I hope to be back on Wednesday.
Hi, I’m Karl. I’m a singer and multi instrumentalist from Kent, England.
The idea behind these songs was originally started as a little bit of fun during the Coronavirus lockdown in the U.K. I played one song on my Facebook feed and then my friends started bombarding me with requests.
I acknowledge that I’m not a great musician, and many mistakes happen. The whole point is that these songs don’t need to be perfect.
I did 100 consecutive days where I released a different cover every night and since then a couple of songs a week. Some incl my son & Mates.
At first just me and a guitar then progressively getting more and more complicated. As long as it entertains my friends and I have fun that’s all I care about. So thought I might share them here. To either entertain you or enrage all those musos who like to rip other people who they think aren’t as good as them lol.
