Hi, friends !

I felt I had to write this
tune to my friend Aleck Rand,
who is recuperating after
severe surgery ! We´ve been
good friends ever since we met
on this site a couple of years
ago ! In fact I consider him
kind of a Blood Brother and that
was the inspiration for this tune !
Aleck, I hope you´ll recover soon !

http://soundcloud.com/dani-lindroos/blood-brother


http://app.box.com/s/s89ebyik1ssf45fgtxrnym7oui8njpbw

The tune is a bluegrass style but for some reason
I could not download the drumtrack so I left it out !

BLOOD BROTHER

Brother,
you´re feelin ´blue
yes, I know that it is true
´cause you´ve been suff´ring for a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, time
may it be over
may you recover ! Fully!
You´ve been my friend
ever since
we met each other on this site
and you sent me down that drive to make my life so much more light
oh yes together
we´ll fight for ever
till the end
Mind no earthly wealth
much more worth is health
yes, my friend, is your health

Brother,
For you I´ll pray
and I hope there´ll come that day
when you don´t need to feel so blue, albeit so gray, go clouds away
and may the sun shine
along the line
down your way
Mind no earthly wealth
much more worth is health
yes, my friend, is your health



Cheers
Dani

Nice of you to do this Dani. There is little
worth more than a true friend.

Touching lyrics and a nice arrangement round
out the package.

We most enjoyed it!
