“On The Edge” in Huntingdon
Live Looping with Home Made Diddley Bow - PLAY LOUD !!

I took my Diddley Bow with me busking yesterday. SO therapeutic to play

Lyrics

If you’re standing on the edge
and you feel too scared to move.
If you’re standing on the edge yeah
and you’re way too tired to move.
Sit down on the ground,
close your eyes
and let the world come to you.

I don’t know where you’re going
and I don’t know where you’ve been.
I don’t care where you’re going,
don’t wanna know where you’ve been.
The world that’s inside my head
is the only thing I see.

You and me are changing,
we’ll never be the same.
Well everything is changing,
yeah nothing stays the same.
Don’t even try to hold on
but don’t push it away.

So if you’re standing on the edge
and you feel too scared to move.
If you’re standing on the edge yeah
and you’re way too tired to move.
Sit down on the ground,
close your eyes
and let the world come to you.

ha, glad to make you smile Poorness :-)

Everything about this video made me smile. From the diddley getting played in public to the pink converse on your feet to the teenagers who seemed to be confused by the "old" (their sentiment not mine) lady rocking out on that 1-stringer. Such a fun video. I appreciate that you don't just build and play these instruments but you get out there and play them on the street. So great!

Thanks Brian, t-belly and Doug :-)

You have an edgier tone than normal and it goes well with the theme your song Belinda! It’s always fun to watch you busk.

thanks A.D.EKER, yes it's a pretty good spot to busk. There's a cafe with outdoor seating just out of shot...
