@VIOLA703 E saluti dal New Jersey a mia splendida principessa italiana Viola. :)) Grazie così tanto! Wow le tue parole mi fanno sentire così bene e mi rendono felice. Sei davvero prezioso, come un dolce Angelo splendido. :) Sono contento che ti piace la mia canzone qui, il mio messaggio è amore è la risposta per noi attraverso qualsiasi problema. Qui i miei capelli erano così Crespi, avevo bisogno di raddrizzarla. haha, che cerco di essere felice nella mia vids, grazie a voi, siete meravigliosi!
@salgiron Haha I take it you couldn't get past the intro. Don't know how all that started,I wanted to come up with some lighthearted fun to set up my songs and a few people told me to keep doing the intros like that and that is was the best part of the vid. lol Well it goes to show you that you can't please everyone,not with 6 billion people in the world.
@Lichtfee004 Haha you're so cute Ann! Your comment has me smiling so much. :))) Thank you precious,we should take our songs in space with us & spread love everywhere. :) Major Rick can hear you loud & clear sweetheart. ;) I'm so glad you like this song,it's from a few years ago when I orginally wrote it. I always thought love is the answer to a lot of problems & the song just came to me as I sat outside looking at the cloudy almost stormy sky and birds. You rock my dear! :))
@orgelnam08 Aww how sweet of you Vicky/Betty! Thank you once again. The answer is love,right? ;)) That's what we need,more love from everyone. You're so cute and fun and adorable. The Lord is the real answer but also love is the answer too while we're here on Earth. and even if we fly to Neptune love s still the answer. lol ;) You alwys brighten up my day sweetheart! Love hugs and kisses for you Vicky! xoxoxoxo :))) Ok where's my helmut? ahhh there it is,see you in space! ;)
Great job Rick. Man, those intros just crack me up. Your humor and music bring a smile to my face. First video of the morning for me here in Alaska, and it was great way to start the day!
@BlackSpruceMusic Hey you're back,lol glad you like that little silly stuff I sometimes throw in. I like to keep things lighthearted while I set up the song just in case people wanna throw tomatoes at me for not digging the tune. lol I'm kidding. That was cool what you said,thank you my buddy! :))) First vid of the day? I'm glad it made you smile. I wrote this tune a few years ago sitting outside under a cloudy sky,the words started to come to me. All the best for you in Alaska my friend! :)))

You are romantic ! ?....your sound is so wonderful....love it :-)) !.....oh, who is commander " z " and major "tom" ?...also never heard from the sombrero galaxy.....has it to do something with ...a tango ? A spanish or mexican part of the galaxy ?... Anyway....a Sombrero Cordobés is a special "hat" in Spain and is different to the mexican one...
@karenmuenchen , ....to many words,,,,well, has no meaning....just want to "talk" to you! very nice song, rick ! bye, bye....one of your space girls:-))

Hey Rick- nice mircrophone- I take it that that is a cordless mic you are using. - maybe one of those Hanna Mantana flashlight mics- lol- Next time let your (pirate) back up singer hum a few bars- lol
but seriously- Beautiful upbeat song- had my toes tapping and my flashlight blinking to the beat. - got another hit there- 5 stars for one of my best musician friends on the tube- God Bless
Haha it's the ol'chordless mic trick again. Now how'd you guess it was a Hanna Montana? lol You're right about the old pirate,I should have used him for some harmonies. ;) Thanks so much my buddy Frankie! I dig your cool comment and great compliment! I so appreciate it! I'm glad you like the upbeat feel of the song. I should do that more often. Thanks for the 5 * too and that's cool that your flashlight blinked in tune. lol You got a cool flashlight. ;) God Bless you too and your family. :))

Hey Rick my man I had to wait 35mins for your video to buffer but I am so glad I waited. I live in the middle of nowwhere so my internet speed is like a snails pace. I love the way your song connects with the earth and is kind of dreamy like. Very 60s Bro. I want to go sit cross legged in a meadow and make daisy chains now lol . Your videos are always very entertaining man, I really dig what you do. Peace to my buddy across the pond.
Wow Dave I sure appeciate you hanging around and waiting. That is a long time! Haha in the middle of nowhere? But sometimes those are the coolest most peaceful places. No wonder you write some of the best songs,now I know. ;)) Wow that's an awesome comment my brother! This really felt so good to hear from a true awesome artist. :) I love that you mention 60's,that's what I try for. lol I love your description! I appreciate you buddy no matter if we're across the big pond,we're soul buddies! :))
Oh Rick it is always a pleasure to listen to you. Another beautful song with that lightness that make the spirit fly. You are such a talented musician, love your voice also. And yes you are a bit crazy, but in such a loveable way! *****
Wow You know how much this means to me getting such a wonderful cool awesome compliment from you Barbette!! :)) You are such an incredible artist my dear,so unique and fresh and exciting and I love your talents and you! ;)) Thank you sweetheart for those words!!

hey Rick, it's so great to see you again! a really sweet song, the lead guitar steps high, sounds really sweet. and I'm glad you didn't omit the voice track, haha!! ;) very simple but deep lyrics, they're just sort of kindred with that 60's spirit, which spread the message of love and peace! it'so easy going and nice to listen to! (the bird first made me think of Devendra's little sparrow). This is a sweet and encouraging message!! all my stars to you! ;o)
Hey Andreas my good buddy! Thanks so much for you awesome comment and compliment!!

You made me laugh and smile with your cool comment! Thanks so much,I love how you keep saying summery on my songs! I so appreciate that and you! Big Love and Big Hugs for you! xoxoxoxo :)))
Yes Love is the answer. You'll find out one day sweetheart! You're so adorable! :)) I wrote this song sitting outside and saw high flying birds in a cloudy sky,it looked like it would storm and that's when the song started. I sit out there with my guitar and a portable recorder in the warmer months. lol ;)
Love you my dear! And take care,just watch out for those goblins and ghosts and haunted castles. lol ;)
Sweet Maria you're so right! Love is the answer and yes God is love. :)) We should have no worries or fears as long as we trust in The Lord. I just need to build faith,sometimes my faith is so weak and at the time when I wrote this song. I had my share of worries and fears and tried to calm myself by writing these lyrics. Thank you so much my dear!! So glad you like the melody and lyrics. I would love to hear you sing sweetie! Make a vid for us one day! ;)) Big Hugs and Love!! xoxoxoxo :)))

Hi Hilda sweetie,thanks so much for your sweet compliment!! I sure appreciate it!! I'm glad you enjoyed it and loved the words.

hey Rick, it's so great to see you again! a really sweet song, the lead guitar steps high, sounds really sweet. and I'm glad you didn't omit the voice track, haha!! ;) very simple but deep lyrics, they're just sort of kindred with that 60's spirit, which spread the message of love and peace! it'so easy going and nice to listen to! (the bird first made me think of Devendra's little sparrow). This is a sweet and encouraging message!! all my stars to you! ;o)

Yes Love is the answer. You'll find out one day sweetheart! You're so adorable! :)) I wrote this song sitting outside and saw high flying birds in a cloudy sky,it looked like it would storm and that's when the song started. I sit out there with my guitar and a portable recorder in the warmer months. lol ;)
Love you my dear! And take care,just watch out for those goblins and ghosts and haunted castles. lol ;)

Sweet Maria you're so right! Love is the answer and yes God is love. :)) We should have no worries or fears as long as we trust in The Lord. I just need to build faith,sometimes my faith is so weak and at the time when I wrote this song. I had my share of worries and fears and tried to calm myself by writing these lyrics. Thank you so much my dear!! So glad you like the melody and lyrics. I would love to hear you sing sweetie! Make a vid for us one day! ;)) Big Hugs and Love!! xoxoxoxo :)))

RICK! hahaha! Your introductions always make my day. You are like a musician/comedian. It's very funny! So glad you came out with this video. The music was rockin' and you nailed the vocals. Love is indeed the answer! To quote Jack Johnson... "Love is the answer, At least for most of the questions in my heart. Like why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard?" FANTASTIC lyric again. You are a poet my friend. Keep the music coming!
