Default Daylight Again / Find the Cost of Freedom - CSN cover

this is my very favorite CSN song, I started working on this one a little while back but have just now felt comfortable recording it. The tuning is D A D G B D............

Daylight again
Following me to bed
I think about a hundred years ago
How my Fathers bled

I think I see a valley
Covered with bones in blue
All the brave soldiers
that cannot get older
Been asking after you

Hear the past a' calling
From Armageddon's side
When everyone's talking
and no one Is listening
How can we decide

Do we find the cost of freedom
Buried in the ground
Mother Earth will swallow you
Lay your body down.

Good stuff, Louie! On headphones, it sounds like the guitar overtakes the vocals, but that might not happen over loud speakers (it's strange how that works). Anyway, I enjoyed it!

thanks Bob, yea, I tend to get a little excited and strum harder in some spots, also I'm only using a Flip camera so there is only the one mic built in to the camera ......

Louie,

look at you! Taking in consideration camcorder mikes stink (I hate the one in my Sony) I think you did a pretty nice job. Would love to hear it through better gear, you can sky on some of those notes!

Well done you old hippie (with love)!
