WIN NOTHING AGAIN by TomV

[MrECLECTICIAN]

Sounds good... was ift difficult to learn to play the harmonica at the same time as the guitar? I've always wondered about this.

[tomvband]

@MrECLECTICIAN For what I'm doing in this video, it ain't so difficult. If you were blowing a complicated lead I think it could be significantly more difficult. Just a matter of time and determination.

[freeman2545]

@freeman2545 Thank you Paul.

[KimmoMusic]

Great original, Tom. Good to hear you again. -Kimmo

[tomvband]

@KimmoMusic Hey Kimmo,....good to see you as well. I appreciate the drive by. You're one of those people I admire to the max. You do such a great job on everything. I struggle along and live on the crumbs. Happy Holidays brother!

[Michelvolkmann]

Hey Tom ,thanks a lot for your comment and respect for your music ...i am jalous about your voice ...love it.

[Sanctuary1952]

Powerful message..powerful song.. the laid back style works so well. Nice..very nice..and the harp... it's all good man. Peace

[tomvband]

@Sanctuary1952 Thank you David. I appreciate the comment man.  This harmonica playing is a lot more difficult that one might think. I find that less is more, which is good because I definitely have less,....hahahaha.

[teteroom]

[tomvband]

@teteroom I don't know Tete,....better than excellent is foreign territory for me,...hahahaha....thanks so much man! I appreciate your support.

[tomvband]

@onewomanandsomesongs What key is your harmonica Ms. Janet?

[onewomanandsomesongs]

@tomvband

Hey, Tom, I'm not sure what key the harmonica is in. I'll have to find it. I know it's in a pile of stuff somewhere, hehe. :) Janet

[TexasNewsReport]

[1958wvpicker]

Howdy Tom

great new song my friend

nice harp work

stay cool

Rich

[tomvband]

@1958wvpicker Thank you Rich man. Now I have one song I can kinda play the harp. For an instrument with few moving parts, it sure ain't all that easy.

[onewomanandsomesongs]

Tom, I mean this seriously, this is a masterpiece! I love your anti-war song, but most of all, I love the way you take the topic of war and give it a fresh twist. Love the line, 'why take another man's life in another man's war.' That says it all. And you performed it so well! My Gawd, this is great. I'm featuring this one on my channel page too, hehe. :) Janet

[tomvband]

@onewomanandsomesongs Jeez Janet. Thank you. [I don't know what else to say.]

[Tsutsomu]

Well done Tom,

You're great !

Steph.

[tomvband]

@Tsutsomu Thank you so much Mr. Steph!

[igoy1958]

hi tom,your a man of many talents and i would love to see you with a tamborine strapped to your ass then you'd be known as tomvband the one man band,i love your smooth style tom very cool.

regards shane.

[tomvband]

@igoy1958 Thanks Shane. I'm still pushing words around on the Horseman. Waiting for inspiration or perspiration or whatever. I wish I had control over that process. Things come to me at the strangest moments. And I've found I have to write them down that instant or they are gone.

[bigbrotherblues]

You are expanding (muscially that is) with the harp and a few jazz chords thrown in there. Very nice Tom. I like the overall message here too.

[tomvband]

@bigbrotherblues Hahaha....thanks John. Although after Thanksgiving I may have expanded a little physically as well. Noticed the old slacks are alittle 'snug' on the waist this morning,....,hahaha

[yogifromoz]

gday Tom yer old swamp dog love this groove the harp is a touch of fair dinkum

it just floats in the back ground while yer on yer magic carpet taking it all in man

a classic mate great work as always take some more time of hell yeah peace &smiles man .

[tomvband]

@yogifromoz G'day Old Swamp Rat Buddy of mine. How be ya? Fair Dinkum? I'm gonna have to look that one up brother. As always, I appreciate your support man. We really do have to all get together somewhere at some time and have a play, eh? That would be too much fun! How much is a ticket to Australia anyway? A year's pay? "Jeez.

[PatrickGMoran]

Great writing you o'l blues master.....damn brother you can do anything. Great production and audio quality. You are a gifted song writer Tom. I am loving the groove of this one buddy...

[tomvband]

@PatrickGMoran Patrick,...I'm just fooling around. I've given up the 'gotta be perfect' shit, because, I know I'm not. So I'm putting time into the writing and letting whatever happens, happen. I do a songwriting interaction once a month and hope it improves the quality of the 'song' even though the delivery might be, and admittedly is, less than stellar. I'm in this for the experience and growth. It's just too much fun. Funny that you say that stuff because you're one of my heroes. True.

[kathmandau]

Thank you for shaing.

many blessings and peace to you, my friend,

CG

[tomvband]

@kathmandau Thank you for the comment. I enjoy your videos by the way.

[profwaldo]

Yeah, there really ain't no winners is there ?

Love the addition of the harp Tom, sounds great !

I don't know about the tambourine tho', the visuals in my head are kinda' creepin' me out man, even tho' it does make me laugh. hahaha Thanks Tom !

[tomvband]

@profwaldo A vivid imagination can be a bad thing. I've always said that. And I'm right. I saw this woman the other day and,.......hahahaha

[helmet19]

Great Tom ! Dig it ! Now I'll be waiting for that broomstick bass exposition !

[MrRobbp]

nice tom----strap a tambourine on and every time you--well(....) it will sound like wind chimes--lol---nice job--the harp is something I could never play--tried and my cats started crying.......you truly are a gifted musician--god bless

[tomvband]

@MrRobbp Is that why those cats are hanging around outside suddenly,.....hahahah....Thank­s Robb.

[weeyin1155]

I love this and I'm glad you had time off work. As for the tambourine.....it depends on how fast you can wiggle your ass. LOL Thanks for the great upload. ☺♥

[tomvband]

@weeyin1155 Hahahaha.....The tambourine is probably beyond my skill set. Probably throw out my back and collapse. Although Nessyvt did offer money to see that act. Hahaha

[weeyin1155]

hahaha....you COULD take some belly-dancing classes? It all depends on how keen you are. haha

[tomvband]

@weeyin1155 I can just imagine me in a grass skirt. ...hahaha...swish.

[nessyvt]

what a pleasant surprise! Saw this and figured it was an update of yesterday's tune. I like the sentiment here and some great lines,"look through the scope and you might find","freedom's just a word they're hangin' on." The harp adds a nice layer to the mix though I have to say, a tambourine strapped to your ass could posssibly give the added benefit of an excerise workout and likely some extra views..hahaha.hell I'd pay to see that.. lmao..Seriously, I admire you're dedication trying new things

[tomvband]

@nessyvt How much would you pay? ;-)

[nessyvt]

@tomvband well now that we've established what you are..I guess it's negotiable.HAHAHA btw bought a new camera..much like the last so maybe not much better quality but a least a new post relatively soon. ;-D

[tomvband]

@nessyvt Are you saying that 'Ho' ain't necessarily part of a holiday saying?

[nessyvt]

@tomvband HAHAHAHAHA!!!

[janwalsh1000]

No insult intended, but you must be an old hippie?LOL!!! Nice song....Jan

[tomvband]

@janwalsh1000 No offense taken,.....I'm definitely old,.....not much of a hippie, but definitely, old.  Hahaha

[janwalsh1000]

@tomvband Tom, Don't worry about it, so am I.
