Taking Requests

Tomorrow I might play around with my guitar a little bit. It's a very silly request, but I may do a little compilation like one I shared a while back here... Sometimes I don't always know what songs I like to play. So I thought I'd ask if there are any songs you might suggest that I could play? Just curious, and even there may be a new song in there somewhere I have not tried before. Any song suggestions? Even if I don't ultimately share.
Just a compilation of some raw files playing around with some songs. Recorded April 28, 2018. All are played with my Christmas present Martin guitar. Hardest Part by Coldplay, Behind Blue Eyes, 3Am

You reminded me of my boyfriend in high school. He loved to play the guitar and the one song he did really well was Teach Your Children. Nice playing.

Great song idea. Love the song. Might add that one to the list. I actually did not pick up the guitar today although I had planned to. Might add that to the list for compilation #2. Once I do it, I will surely post it...the compilation that is. Whatever that winds up being.

@RasmaSandra I have not had time to pick up my guitar since I posted this. But I am definitely taking notes.

@JimBo452020 The ONLY thing that's changed is that I have to play with it longer to get it "right." lol

I will look at the video as I love music. You can always play some of your favorite songs. Since your wife is not there, you could play Are You Lonesome Tonight and Crying.

@1hopefulman I did do one Elvis song once, but I don't have it posted anywhere. Maybe one of these days I will post it.

@porwest I also love Jesse Winchester's songs, but I don't have voice like his.Did you see my lullaby? It's my first "kid song." Not an original. It was a part of the "folk scare" of the '50s.
"The Riddle Song" - A Traditional lullaby Colin H. Sacks - vocals, guitars, bass, mandolin Recorded by - Michael Stenberg Thanks to A.A. Milne, E.H. Shepard,...

Have not heard that song, nor heard of John Prine, although I did look him up. Might have to consider it. I will add it to the list of possibles.

Can you play 'Further Up The Street? Or 'Tenor' (ten or twelve miles away)? I'm joking of course. I'm so out of touch with modern music but I'm sure you'll get some good suggestions.
