Born and raised in California, moved to Germany many moons ago. I love music. Started playing guitar when I was 14 and quit when I was 17. Started again when I was 32 and have been going at it ever since. I just started writing and singing my own stuff and it's still pretty basic music, but getting it right is one of the best feelings ever. http://TomFool.bandamp.com/ admin@bandamp.com http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/3631.html Recorded this last year (2005). Wrote it for my son. It needs to be remixed and could do wth a bass line, but let me know what you all think anyways.

After a few attempts I decided against a solo. I have been messing with it for long enough. I hope you enjoy it. City Of Angels when I was a young man, I lived in the city The city of angels my home by the sea Warm skys and sunshine and the Ladies so pretty I never realised what it meant to me I was born in the city of Angels, blue skys and sunshine my home by the sea so many memories they'll last me a lifetime That's right where I am supposed to be yea that's where I am supposed to be I crossed the ocean, Left my sweet homeland I made decisions that can't be undone I'd love to go back to my home by the ocean and live a sweet life in that warm Angel's sun I'd love to return to that city of Angels The breeze in my hair and the wind off the sea so many memories they'll last me a lifetime That's right where I am supposed to be yea that's where I am supposed to be Gone is the sunshine, gone are the blue skys Gone are those times don't I know it's the truth I'll never get back to my city so lovely I'm payin' the price for the days of my youth and I'll never get back to my city of Angels I'll Never go home to my place by the sea It'll always just be a dream in my memory That's all it can ever be for me That's all it can ever be for me Sat, 27 Jan 2007 17:28:15 -0500 http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/3632.html Did the guitar and vocals together then added the piano track later. Another upbeat ballad. Mon, 13 Nov 2006 17:56:49 -0500 http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/4379.html I posted the lyrics to this a while back.

(all 1 min 15 seconds) Please let me know what you think. Thanks! Wishes Wasted stars on all the wishes That never could come true Wasted dreams on all the things That never could hope to Wasted tears one all the times You never should have cried Wasted things they say Wasted life away But you smile as you stand Wasting wishes at your well Tossing pennies in and Over thinking silly things Childish Hopes and dreams They say your life was wasted still They say your life was wasted But it was wasted well - Text by J.C.
