Is There Something I Can Do

My first effort using Final Cut Express editing software. I still have a lot to learn, but it was fun.

Is there something I can do....lyric & melody by Thomas King © 2011
Is there something I can do
To melt away those wicked blues
Is there something I might say
That would brighten up your day
I'm shining my love light on you
To see the world a different way
Some see birth some see decay
So this is life from day to day
I jump right in to the fray
Searching for that universal truth
Life is hard and then you die
So say some but I ask why...
Not give a little smile a try
And make the day of someones child
It's real not so very hard to do
I see possibility
Connecting life and you and me
As Mother Nature sows her seeds
Then loving care is all they need
She's shining her love light so true
Can you hear a melody
That we might live in harmony
Together we will sow the seeds
That nurture shared humanity
I'm living in this love light with you

Thanks for sharing your wonderful music. Will this be forthcoming?

@ecoheart1 Thank you for your kind words. I always strive to do my best. I'm learning to thrive.

Hi Thomas -Thank you for stopping by.

Love your music and your Aloha spirit..

I have been to the Islands many times-

Paradise on earth...Thank you for bringing

a little bit of Hawaii into my day ...Alooooooha - Polly

[kiaweking]

@luvperu1 Hi Polly...I had not seen this comment earlier. I love the song about friendship on your channel page. I think of Aloha as a way to live. Amazing how I didn't see you when you were here (laughs). Next time come and visit Honuapo. It's one of Hawaii's special places.

A hui hou,

Thomas

[Twirretwarre]

Kindness, what a great song you did, dear Thomas. This is you my friend, and this is my friend I am thankful for that I met!

Big muah from Roeleke

@Twirretwarre I'm so happy that you like this one Roeleke. Your irrepressible joy and spirit are the highlight of my YouTube experience. You are a friend worth celebrating (I think that makes you a celebrity?)

Aloha from Hawaii,

Thomas

@moomay1949

There is a time and a place for everything. Glad you found me though, I love your sense of humor.

Aloha from Hawaii,

Thomas

@RonIrelandmusic

Mahalo Nui Loa Ron, I do consider this to be a gift. The story is still unfolding every day, and it will be told. Pleased am I to make your acquaintance and friendship.

Aloha,

Thomas

[RonIrelandmusic]

Dream songs are gifts. This is a delightful one. I look forward to hearing the story.

warm regards from virginia,

ron

@MsGREGORIAN Mahalo Raffi. I'm glad you like it. I'm just beginning to learn mandolin and I'm loving it. Did you ever see the movie "August Rush"? All music has a magic sound. And if we listen carefully we can hear music in everything. Music is a phenomenon that connects us all.

Aloha,

Thomas

[MsGREGORIAN]

THIS INSTRUMENT HAS A MAGIC SOUND....VERY WELL DONE.....RAFFI

@pianogirl98 Well actually I was at a story telling workshop in California last month and out of the huge crowd of 10 an old school mate was the only person I knew well. I edited out the story part but it needs to be told eventually to give the song more depth. Thanks for watching.

Aloha,

Thomas

[pianogirl98]

Very nice performance! Your audience must be a group of friends..

[kiaweking]

@Cameragirl803 So glad that you enjoyed this Jane. It is one more example of a song that came to me in a dream. I don't always understand it but I'm so glad when it happens. Thanks for your kind words.

bless,

Thomas

[Cameragirl803]

This was terrific Thomas!! So nice to hear you playing and singing this morning! Great writing and performing my friend!! Bravo!! *****

[kiaweking]

@AnaJilK Ačiu, Lijana. I'm glad you like this one.

Tavo draugas,

Thomas

@sguitar Hi Sarah, Thanks for watching. Life is fun, what else can I say. I wanted to respond to your comment earlier but I've been up in the mountains of Northern California helping my dad celebrate his 90th birthday. The Internet up there is.....Hmmm.....shall I say....extremely slow.

Peace,

Thomas

@rich2rock I wish I could help you find Tim Rich. To the best of my knowledge he's moved to the other side of the river, staying at Donna's I think. He does have a few videos up under the alias "Wobbly Sims". You would recognize the guitar he's playing in "Tar Ball Fishin" for sure. Thanks for watching. Glad you like it.

Peace,

Thomas

@dmio2 Aloha Dan,

I'm glad you found something in the song that you can use. This song is about crating a shift in my own life. Like the guy who wakes up one day and refuses to pick any more bricks. You know the story. I've always loved Peanuts. Even if there is no character named peanuts most of us can relate to Charlie Brown. Thanks for having a listen.

Peace,

Thomas

[AnaJilK]

Nice to see that you didn't forget singing and to hear your new creation. You changed style of your singing... It became slower, I would say - more "mature"... I think it's even better. Lovely song, congratulations! 5*****

[sguitar]

Very nice... It is pleasure to listen!!! You look like you have much fun!!! Sarah :-)

[rich2rock]

Nice writing and play here . Hey what ever happened with Tim? Never hear back from him. Hope he got his recording done better than I could do for him anyway.
