Loved the bouncy energy, Danny, and admire the way you play with fingers, blending the strumming and the note walks. Video thumb nail is also cool.

Remember that the title should be the title of the song and embed a normal YouTube… URL in the topic body. And if you can, create in the Originals sub-category rather than AVOYP.

No big deal, I fixed these for you.

Just for interest sake where do these youtu.be URLs come from?

please have a listen to the fun little song I call “My Movie”

My Movie #3 by Danny Bertges

Intro

Verse 1

I’m not in your movie, but you’re in mine

She’s such a beauty, starring in my movie

But I’m not in her movie, she’s in mine

Verse 2

In my movie, it’s you and me, in romantic comedy

The plot it turns in a twist, until it ends…with a kiss

Chorus

I’m not in your movie, but you’re in mine

Come be in my move, come be mine

Come be in my move…come be mine

Verse 3

In my movie, I say the lines, but when I’m with you I’m tongue-tied Em/C/D/G

In my movie, I take your hand, why don’t you know I’m you leading man

(why don’t you know?)

Chorus

Bridge

Come to my movie, star with me

I see you and me upon the marquis

You can act yourself naturally

Take off your makeup, you’re pretty as can be

You can act yourself beside me

I’ll love you more than make believe G/D

I’ll love you more than make believe G/D

I’ll love you more than you can believe

The plot it turns in a twist, until it ends…with a kiss

Added the URL to the post and appended to the Super For You topic. Remember our ‘One Topic per Month’ guideline.

Another fine original. You have a flair for the lyrics and enjoy your playing

Hi Danny,

From the title I wasn’t expecting that kind of energy: works well.
Sort of a Buddy Holly/50s vibe - and that’s no bad thing at all.

Digger

Thanks for listening Digger72. I’d been messing with different ways to play it and settled on this style. Heard a cat Steven’s song with G/Em/C/D and recalled another song from the early 60s. So that’s probably why it ended up like this.

geeze i get confused and do that every time

when i upload to YouTube they have a choice to copy the URL so i just did that

have ta remember to name the song and put in the right location

thanks for the correction

danny

Hi Danny,
I agree with Colin- catchy tune, well-played and sung.
The concept of starring in each others’ movies (or not) works well :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:
If you’re looking for critique, the verses, chorus and bridge sound a bit too similar for my taste. Don’t ask for concrete suggestions, as that’s not my forte :roll_eyes:]
I would change the second and third lines to make the song consistent in speaking directly to the ‘object of your desire’ in the second person, as opposed to the third.
I like your stuff!

Good point I struggled w using you vs she and split the difference which now doesn’t work.
I think using you is better throughout.
I’ll change that thanks.

Yeah verse and chorus w similar chords. Only the Em sets aside the verse. I’ll have the refresh on that one to find a better way.

Well done Danny :+1:

Thank you so much for listening

Nice, Danny! This song and your style made me think of Cat Stevens. Have you heard of him?

Nice job - Open Mic vibes for sure!

thanks so much for the listen
tried to keep it fun

@docdanguitarman Danny, did you miss my previous comment about a single topic in a month in Community Recordings?

I’ve again appended My Movie into the first topic with Super For You.

Super for you is way cool! You just picked up a like and a subby on youtube. I’m guilty of super hero overload, but you put an original, interesting and tasty twist on the genre.
