Season 360 - Celebrating a Year of Music

"wishing (if i had a photograph of you)" by a flock of seagulls

bari uke and new toy - no what am i saying - new super-serious musical instrument :uhoh: a casio keyboard :rock:

 
One of the early ones from Steve's marathon project, he must have a very understanding wife :)

 
Here's a Webb Pierce classic that's one of country music's most famous drinking songs. It's always a fun challenge to try stuff in Webb Pierce' key.

 
Despite the fact it is exam week and I have a translation to finish, glancing through Steve's incredible achievement I knew right away which song I wanted to do for this Season. And now, perusing the Playlist, I was so relieved to see no one has yet attempted it. It is "Vertigo" by Antje Duvekot - who I raved about, and encouraged covers of, on one of the last times I hosted (must do that again sometime soon. From March onward I will have more time on my hands).

Steve was as impressed as I am by the lovely Antje. If this world cared for quality over commercialism then Antje would be a household name.

I notice Steve also did one of my songs, "Outside" (about male aggro) wonderfully well, too... Hint, hint. ;)

Anyway, here is:

 
I had to give this one a try. This was Steve's personal favorite from his incredible musical journey of the past year.

 
Melissa and I wanted to sing you a cheerful song about peddling heroin and going to jail for it. Not sure which day this one was...I just know it was on the list
 
Steve's effort was truly amazing, and I'm sure it changed his life.

As for me, I'm on holiday in Halong Bay, Vietnam. I just bought a new uke at a market here, and so here's another me-on-holiday vid with snippets of the place I'm at.




That's my Mom at 0:52!

More strange goings on with this forum. Is anyone else getting a clock error message? I am typing this from my phone, as my PC is refusing to connect with UU , the error message saying my clock is ahead, so a connection cannot be established. But my clock is right...

Yes, my devices' clocks are correct, but I notice that when I post on UU, the posting times listed are sometimes way off, once by a whole day behind.
 
Tried to post yesterday but don't see it here. In any event, have watched many SOTU videos, never posted before. Loved what Steve did last year and did a quick one on "Dancing in the Dark" (don't think it was done yet)

 
No clock errors for me, but I did have an expired certificate message this morning.

Welcome William! I’m glad you decided to finally take the plunge. I did see your post in the general thread. It’s a great place for questions about recording/mic set up, editing software, and general shenanigans, but typically videos for a season are posted in that seasons thread.

There may also be occasions where a host might feel a song doesn’t quite fit the theme, or that was submitted after time. Those go in the Island of Misfits thread.

Anyway. The playlist is current to here. Thanks everyone!

Yes, I have just a message saying that the UU website security certificate expired 143 days ago. Probably why my PC/Chrome is not connecting.
