Hi Everyone,
Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live.
Since I mentioned that And Winter Glows is more of a vocal-type song than guitar specific, I figured we might as well open it up to a collaborative project.
In this video I separate the melody and accompaniment so you can get a clear idea of the melody. The challenge then is to tap into your creative well and come up with a story or mood that you see fit. Post your lyrics in the Forum thread announcing the project or even just here on the lesson page.
Enjoy this level 1 lesson collaborative challenge!

>>New Target and Pay Per Lesson release - Lyric Collaboration Project – And Winter Glows
I thought of this as an interesting "challenge" rather than a collaboration. So I thought I'd try my hand at some lyrics. I didn't know where it would take me. But I ended up writing about a friend of mine who just recently lost his wife after sixty years of marriage. Just start Neil's video at 10:17 and sing along.....
And Winter Grows
----------------------
So here's where I sit
With thoughts of you
Running through my old mind in the dark
And now I don't know
How I can live with (just)
Mem-or-ies of you and me
Lost in a summer's breeze
And here's where I live
Alone with you
In my mind lost in time and I cry
And now all I have
Of you and me are (those)
Mem-or-ies of long ago
Lost in a summer's breeze with you
Bridge:
And winter grows so long
Without you around
And I don’t smile any more
And winter grows so cold
Without you around
And I won’t love again
So here's where I sit
With thoughts of you
Running through my old mind in the dark
And now all I have
Of you and me are (those)
Mem-or-ies of long ago
Lost in a summer's breeze with you
In love with you
In love with you
And Winter Grows

I don't understand. Are you saying that in order for you to write lyrics you need loads of chocolate? Does chocolate help you think?This will require a serious amount of chocolate!
