I wrote 'You And Me' some time ago (couple of years I think).
I've performed it many times in different places and it always gets a reaction.
Usually questioning the gender perspective.
"It's not really a 'man' song is it?"
Why not I wonder?
Aren't men supposed to have the kind of sentiments expressed in the song?
At face value it describes that awkward period in a relationship where both parties know it's all over but neither can bring themselves to admit it.
I have a different take on what the song's actually about.
The Girl On A Wire asked if she could have a go at singing it and, in my opinion, she's made it her own.
This is a recording of the first time we've played it as an ensemble which accounts for Prof Dogsbody's somewhat tentative concertina. If I was a fair man I'd have let him know what the key and chords were before I turned on the recording equipment:
You And Me. by Outa_Spaceman
So, what key was it?
ReplyDeletePlease remind me.
A?

ReplyDeleteI have it!
(Well, almost.)
It's nearly there on the psaltery too.
ReplyDeleteI will supply an atracious recording once I have tuned that B-string.
Your choice.
