out of sight SAW 2021 by niki s published on 2021-11-14T10:01:55Z songaweek2021 this is just a little beginning of something I want to write to the memory of my Grandparents -they were the sweetest. :) I once caught a bus to the ocean I sat with my sister and nan From Randwick to Coogee it’s not very far We went by bus coz my nan had no car She’d married a man Jack the Barber Who always had time for a chat Their love was my standard they rarely did fight A marriage like theirs shone more brightly than bright Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter Comment by Claes A sweet gem, this one, Niki. Definitely a keeper. 2021-11-22T14:59:02Z Comment by Bernard Dady Love ‘we went on the bus ‘cos my nan had no car’. Such a great listen this one. Partly because of the narrative and imagery but also as your voice sounds great. An engaging song throughout. 2021-11-21T23:30:30Z Comment by Evan McDoniels great way to paint the picture of these stories of your grandparents! great work! 2021-11-20T21:15:32Z Comment by Charlatan, PE This is sweet.

I love the inspiration of your grandparents' marriage - I know what you mean about the sweet relationships sticking out :) 2021-11-16T09:35:50Z Comment by JTR It's a gift to hear a sketch of yours, especially this one so built on love and memory. It's really got that subtle rolling boil thing happening, always warm and with movement but never spilling over. 2021-11-16T00:47:37Z Comment by Erin Wolf That opening really had me thinking of "November". ;) This is such a sweet memory to share of your grandparents. Really enjoying it, Niki. :) 2021-11-15T20:56:16Z Comment by Music Box This is a really sweet one, Niki. Really lovely lyrics and melody. 2021-11-14T16:38:01Z
