[justplainfred]

I really dig them blues with a feelin' that are drawn from real life - excellent song and elegant in it's simplicity!!! - keep it goin' man - Fred

[kickingmule]

@justplainfred Fred, "Keep It Stupid Simple" is my Trademark.*smile*

I use to play along with you, I use my harp. Works fine !

Thanks for the comment and listening.

Keep on Drilling the Blues !

Peace Bro !

[peteholm]

Good subject for a blues of today, drill and oilspill blues.

[kickingmule]

@peteholm Thanks Peter, I do my best to keep the old spirit alive. In the Delta in the old days, you know where the Mississippi river meets the Yatzoo river, the banks sometimes broke down, so the Bluesmen sang about that. *smile*

I do it my way.

I always do !

Thanks for the comment and listening.

Peace Brother !

I like it, it's zeitgiest blues, like leadbelly did back in the day you know.

[kickingmule]

@busessuck1 Thanks, I just do what the old Bluesmen did. Sing about Life !

Peace Brother !

[suuzzee5]

AWESOME blues number, Urban! You took an unholy mess of an oil spill and got a great tune going from it. That's what the blues is all about/talking about life. All the best always, Suze

[kickingmule]

@suuzzee5 Yes Suze, I did an old Delta Blues, just like the old Bluesmen did, when something was going on wrong. For example, the levees broke down in the Delta, etc.

You are absolutely Right. The Blues is about Life, Feelings !

Hugs over the Pond, filled with oil. Hope they don't drill. Oh, I forgot, Norway, does. Sweden's neighbor.

You can't trust anyone these days ?

Howevever, I always trust You Suze !

Take Care !

[StewFairweather]

Right on man. Good blues.

[kickingmule]

@StewFairweather Thanks Stew ! I've been listening to you and your cool Delta sound. I thought : Why not a Blues about a disaster ? So, a Delta sound and some lyrics about it, just like the old Delta-Men were singing, when the levees broke down, time to time in the Delta in the past.

Thanks my friend for the inspiration to this short song/blues !

Peace Bro !

Urban

[tenorbanjo4]

Well done !

P.S. I did'nt know that a little delta was also in Sweden. *****

[kickingmule]

@tenorbanjo4 The Delta, wherever it is, engage you when its NOT properly handled, so why not show my sympathy to all who suffers.

BP Drill & Kill !

I'm NOT !

Thanks for the comment and listening !

Peace Brother !

Urban

[tenorbanjo4]

Hi Brother! I was only meaning that you are a real bluesman, playing and singing in the right delta spirit.

What can I say about BP and other Nature polluters? Only that's terrible for everyone.

Peace

Marco

[kickingmule]

@tenorbanjo4 Thanks Marco !

You are kind, but BP isn't !

So, why not a Blues about the mess they do.

I agree, its terrible for all of us !

BUT,

as long as we have the Blues ( Music ), we survive, in one way or another !

Thanks for the comment and listening !

Peace Brother !

Urban

[uwebde]

Great Performance !

[kickingmule]

@uwebde Thanks Uwe ! A protest song ! I can't do Nothing about it, but express my feelings !

Take Care of yourself and our World !

Peace !

Urban

[blindtcjohnson]

Wow Urban, I appreciate your song and sentiment and also the intelligent comments stated here....this is why blues people are COOL.

If I may make one humble recommendation for all who love the worlds oceans......read "The Unnatural History Of The Sea" by Callum Roberts. 5*!

[kickingmule]

@blindtcjohnson Hi TC ! You are very much welcome to express, whatever you want on my channel. I do, in this "one moment" Blues !

Stay Cool, perhaps you can fish in the Mexican Golf some day, in the future, BUT God knows what you are supposed to catch by then ???

Thanks for the comment and listening.

Take Care !

Urban

[rotagen5]

PS, they're covering up oil on beaches with more sand. There are lots of vids and first hand reports showing up to prove this.  Total scumbags.

[rotagen5]

Hate BP, love kickingmules vids. Don't buy Arco , AMPM Castrol or other bp brands, Their gas is really low grade anyways, full of water and contaminants, go to boycott bp to see their companies. Castrol oil or any other pennsylvania crude will gum up your engine anyways, heard from a mechanic. Use only mineral based oils in your engine.

[kickingmule]

@rotagen5 Thanks for a very good comment and info ! You see, as a Swede, I'm a long way from the disaster, but I thought, I just have to do something, so I composed this little protest song.

BP is no more for me !!!

I love BB, which stands for Blue Bird, an old American recordcompany. On my git !

Together we are strong !

Peace Bro !

Urban

[fendermac]

Unbridled capitalism is the American dream made manifest...and Thatcher's dream.There must be 1000s of happy companies glad that BP are taking the heat while they continue to do whatever the hell they do

[kickingmule]

@fendermac You are so right in what you are saying, so I have nothing to add, BUT it was some 40 years since I sang a protest song. It happened in Tooting, just outside London, when I was hitch-hiking in UK in the sixties.

You know, I just wanna show, my point of view !

Thanks Paul !

Our World is for sure something to take care of.

[fendermac]

@kickingmule ...Haha.Tooting was pretty wild 40 years ago.

[kickingmule]

@fendermac Ya, me too ! Haha..haa !!!!

[Yeractualpatience]

Hej Urban, It's a real tragedy. God knows what the future holds out there for so many people. Seems like one catastrophe after another for Louisiana! Mercy! Lucky it wasn't Statoil or Preem, kanske!!

Best.

[kickingmule]

@Yeractualpatience lain, I don't care who Drilled & Killed, but as you say, our World is worth protection against profit-makers and "killers" !

This is just a simple protest song, in a moment of anger.

I can't do nothing about the disaster, but protest and show my point of view.

Take care !

Urban

[jtls8]

Thank you Urban! Well done!!!

[kickingmule]

@jtls8 Thanks JT, this is a protrest song and I just wanted to show my point of view. The song is nothing special, but the BP drilling is for sure.

Take care !

Urban

[gonefishingwithfredo]

It's all cleaned up,ain't you heard ?

Can't find anymore to clean...just disappeared like a fart in the wind

King Obama even said so......well,he sent his minions out to tell that lie

BP is now off the hook,the King is an ass-kicking hero,& his family is spending 100's of k's of US taxpayers' dollars on their vacation.

I wonder if BP works the strings or the controller....I bet that Big Pharma probably works the strings,since that is the more technically difficult aspect of puppetry

[kickingmule]

@gonefishingwithfredo Are you sure ? Is it all cleaned up ? Ha...haaaa !

I don't belive it and my little protest song will never change anything, but I wanted to show my sympathy to the people/animals/enviroment of yours !

BP is no more for me ! Dead and gone !

So, are all oil-companies !

Thanks for a very good comment and information !

Peace !

Urban

[sfdog1369]

Well Urban I Guess Ya Said It All Here Bro BP Drill & Kill Thx Fer Sharin Peace My Brother!!!!

[kickingmule]

@sfdog1369 Thanks Dog ! I thought I wanna do something about the drilling and killing, so the song just came into my mind ! Don't ask me how, please !

Peace Bro !

We don't drill or kill !!!
