No Guarantees - (Fake It Challenge)

by @kosch

Liner Notes

Welp....I was innocently going along thinking today would not be focused on getting #14 up, but maybe listen a bit - and practice some of what I've written (I've got a songwriter showcase coming uo in March, and I thought I might play this year's FAWM songs exclusively 😳 - so I guess I better "learn" them...)

But I came upon a russkeys tune I was about to hit play on, and saw it was tagged #fakeit , and I wasn't sure what that was, so I used the handy FAWM search bar, and found metalfoot's forum post where it was explained..and my morning changed direction a bit (and I learned about Fake Books, and stuff, too)

Well, it sounded kind of fun - so I gave it a go - looking at it as "How would it have sounded, had I written it" So, I probably should have gone though it a few more times before I hit record... but, well, I didn't 😆 (I think it's a pretty fair representation of what I was aiming at though) Now, I'm looking forward to finding some other versions. ...and yes, I am aware of the irony of "winning" FAWM on this particular challenge... #acousticonetake #challenge

Great groove to this version! I am glad that I was able to contribute to your FAWM in a small way.

This is one of the better versions of this challenge imo. You bring character to the song. Nicely done.

Well done on hitting 14 and nice chord progression on this tune! Good lyrics too and strong chorus too, I’d love to do a cover of this at some point before the end of February if that’s alright with you?
