Clifton invited me to interpret his Vietnam song so I did. It is only 2 tracks. https://soundcloud.com/davidsfilmmusic/1969-songI loved this song when I heard it the first time. Wish we had had this for that SongTradr Vietnam War listing man. Well, maybe next time. 1969 By Clifton and David Performed by David Dylan V1 We fought the Nam for Nixon, Kept the pain inside watched the hippies spit at us, when we got stateside They sent the body bags home like a dog was inside and everything changed in '69 Everything changed in 1969 V2 Protesters burned draft cards in a great big pile Radical students ran to college and hid out for a while The weathermen exploded, the devil showed up right on time Everything changed in '69 Everything changed in 1969 CH: And I don't remember who was left alive and I don't remember what was left inside and I don't remember if we even survived but everything changed in 1969 everything changed in 1969 V3 It was a world that could only happen back then and I pray to God we will never see it again We tried to light a bonfire tried to let it shine but then then devil he showed up just in time and everything changed in '69 everything changed in 1969 CH: And I don't remember who was left alive and I don't remember what was left inside and I don't remember if we even survived but everything changed in 1969 everything changed in 1969 A song by Clifton and David. Performed by David Dylan. More data to come. David Snyder, acoustic guitar and vocals.

Wow, so good!
First of all, outstanding writing, just about as good as it gets IMHO.
And the performance shows that less is often more, particularly for this type of material. Just a man and his guitar, anything else would get in the way and take away from the song.
Nice one guys!

Hey Clifton, I will set up a drop box some time this weekend and send you the .wav. Am out of pocket all day and most of tomorrow but I will get 'er done somehow. Yeah, maybe the start of many. I really felt this song man. I basically propped your lyrics up in front of me on the music stand under the mic, plugged in with the acoustic and did it. I played and sang at the same time to get that 60s coffee house vibe going on. It felt good man. Great material.  I guess we need to exchange some ASCAP info and stuff over the next few days.

What a tune! I thoroughly enjoyed this one  The Bob Dylan vibes are strong with this one. I would love to hear the original this was based off. The mix on this is on point too. I think this might be one of my favourites I've heard from you thus far. Great work, and thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Clifton, getting ready to send a .wav via drop box. In case you or your peeps wanna play it live here is what I am doing: I am capo 4 but in D formation so key of F#. Pretend we are in D. It starts on D (moves slowly) to D/C then to Em7 (walk down to the B, finger stays on D second string but no A, open G) then move finger down to Bb bass with the D holding steady on second string. Repeat. Chorus is G, A2 with a G on top (G6 add9??) then to D. Repeat. Have fun.

This song is so true. I lost 7 friends in that war and for what?
This is one fantastic song. Everything is top shelf, great vocal and lyrics!
You should be very proud of this one.
This is a keeper.

A terrific co-write, boys. Well done. The addition of the chorus gave it a nice structure and pulled it together.
Nice performance, David.

Such a cool song David. During the time I only lived about 60 miles from the US border. Had allot of mix emotions over that war. Had a friend slip across the border to join the US Marines. He didn't last long over there and was shipped home in a coffin. Also met a few people who slipped across the border to escape the draft. Very troubling times.
Loved the lyric and way you delivered them. Such a cool song.....

Well done y'all...lots of reminders there for a guy who went to HS and college in the 60's and then drew a "safe" number in the draft lotto for your life.

Great job, Mr. Dylan! As has been said, really fits the era. A lot of truth in this one. Nice collab! Really enjoyed it!

Loved it. Not to minimize the message or the emotion here, but this is a classic period piece in so many good ways. Kudos!
