I did a Valintine day serenade for my lovely wife who I have been with now for 30 years. We were just getting started in life when we met. She pretended that she didnt like me, but I knew what was up.
I took the song driving on 9 by The Breeders which a remake of a song by Ed’s redeeming qualities. I changed the words to represent us falling on love In Reno and Carson City and the Mountains surroundings the area. It meant a lot to me to make her smile with this as we have had such a hard year especially her. But she is tough and togeather we can get through anything.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did creating it, learning to sing and performing it for her. It is very special.
Jason, that was great - organic and straight from the heart.
Really special knowing you were singing/playing to your wife who was sitting just across from you.
Thanks for including her response in the video and for sharing that special moment with us.
Thanks, I am humbled coming from a bluesmen, such as your self. it is a bit rainy today in AZ so perfect.
She was very happy, teary-eyed even. It was tough to keep going near the end, she was bouncy.
I actually tried to practice that song when she wasn’t around. Because she totally knows it, she loves the breeders and that album, so I did good hiding it.
There is even a whole extended version where briefly expain about name badge on the guitar. Its her moms from a starting a job 9 days after my wife was born there in Carson City, Nevada and part of the song.
Thank you sir
I love to sing to my wife. I am a regular dork like that.
Hey Thank you Eddie, I appreciate that compliment from you.
Hi Jason
That is very sweet from you do do that for here (Especially because Valentine’s Day is actually meant to be completely different, but commerce has taken a toll on almost everyone )
Another 2 and a half years before we have been together for 30 years (I’ve known her for 30 years now), so she has to wait a little longer for a song from me
Wow what a touching tribute to your wonderful wife on Valentine’s Day how romantic- can see you have been through a whole life together as you say 30 years, that’s amazing all those wonderful times shared are always very beautiful well done to both of you
I actually did entered after if found out about it perfect timing. I appreciate the thought. I did not win. I would have gotten a new acoustic. But its ok but its ok, will have to fix thia or one ofnthe other broken ones i have picked up. Another contest. These hash tag things never work for me either. I did see the the guy who won was very good, very sweet also and it was very clever video as well.
I do need to do something about a better acoustic guitar though, its a bit frustrating. But things are already getting better.
My true gift was my wifes smile
Its hard to believe, probobly the longest I have done anything. Hey the 28 years is amazing as well and you can sing to her any time.
We have done a lot, but we still have so much more to do as well.
It is, there was something wrong with the hash tags thing I guess. But they announced the winners yesterday. I dont usually enter contests or ask for help ever. In this case tho, my acoustice is on its last legs. Also too big, hurts me to play. I could surf this sucker.
Oh Man!!! I absolutely LOVE this song - Kim Deal and the Breeders etc - you have made this absolutely your own - so great, I really love this. What an amazing thing to do. I like your voice - and am in awe of your chord changes too.
You are so kind. Thank you. So much

well done to both of you
