Leadfoot 131 Posted May 13, 2019 Hey guys! As some of you know, my dad passed away in February. Many of you were very supportive during that difficult time, and I thank you all so much. I wrote a song for him that wanted to share with you all. I posted it on the songs forum too, but I didn't know how many of you visited the songs forum, and I wanted you all to hear it. Please let me know what you think. And again, thank you all so much for your support back in February. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
57Gregy 233 Posted May 13, 2019 I love a good sentimental ballad. 😁 It's cool that you got AC/DC to record it for you, too. It rocks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My dad loved AC/DC, even at 77 years old, so I wanted to make a song that he would have liked. Glad you liked it, and thanks for checking it out! 8 hours ago, Amicus717 said: Great song.

craigb 2,896 Posted May 16, 2019 It never seems fair that guys like your Dad are gone while so many useless wsates of flesh remain... This song just screams 80's (and I think that's a good thing!). 😀 A definite AC/DC vibe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leadfoot 131 Posted May 16, 2019 Hey Craig, Thank you so much for the kind words about my Dad. And I agree, it's hard to understand why some dirtbags get to be healthy, while some good people end up with issues. Glad you like the song man! My Dad was a rocker, and brought me up on Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Elvis, etc. Then when he discovered AC/DC, he loved them because they had that same straight forward style bluesy rock sound, just harder. I knew if I was gonna write a song for him that he would not want some sad, sappy song. So I wrote him an AC/DC song!😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
