@Folkenbluzer’s “Level The Playing Field”. This is the video that brought me to this wonderful community of fantastic people. I fell in love with this amazing song immediately! I left a simple comment of: “Nicely Done” … then dove into Al’s catalogue of well written, heart felt & honest songs. This songwriting genius was someone I wanted to know. I am so honored & thankful that you welcomed me right in, Al. My life has been forever changed from the moment you said “come hang out with us…these are good people here”! 😉🙏 I listen to this often & just wanted to let you know how much I love it & how big a fan I am of yours! 🎶❤️🎶
Dude, I'm on my first cup of coffee reading this and it made me feel like you had your hand wrapped around my heart giving it a hug. I'm truly touched and so impressed with how quickly and hard you've worked to get your music heard all over this community!!!! Thank you for this Michael ❤️
@@folkenbluzer you are the reason I am here. I’m going to spend the rest of this month sharing some of my favorite songs (or most impactful to me at least) from some of the artists that have been key to me being more seen & heard here. And that inspired me to do more. I wanted to start with you, as you were the one that brought me in & continue to inspire me. Thank you brother! 🎶❤️🎶
Hello Folkenbluzer!!! So lovely sun and spring and we all hope to be without jackets out soon! Lovely play and singing....for sure the birds listen to you too....even its kind of problem song :-)
Well done Folkenbluzer, Al, I really do love folk music and you have a voice for it and a talent to perform, Hope you did good Brother and my Music-In-Law 🤘🎸🤠
Excellent quality and well done content.! ❤ A most interesting video that I really appreciate!! 😊 Very big like posed and all my support for your great and fabulous share my dear friend !👍 Take care of yourself and your loved ones!! 🙏 Your good friend, Bekaa🌹 Like ! 80
Good luck, Folkenbluser with this entry.....the song is excellent! Your music has an Old Crow Medicine vibe, one of my fave bands, Great musicianship too...this was a wonderful story telling song as well. :) Janet
Thank you so much Janet! Speaking of old crow med show, I do a pretty good wagon wheel but I'm afraid my covers cause people to miss out on my originals. I took a lot of covers and put them in unlisted because the other people in the contest have been coming to my channel and I so want them original songs heard. I don't use this phrase often and only for those who would appreciate it. Bless You!
Thanks man! Enough about me, Dude 🤩 you are an awesome songwriter and the songs that i have heard of yours so far are all inspired by either a kind message for all and a heart that has compassion what is actually meaningful in life. Great great stuff man!!!
@@folkenbluzer wow that's extremely kind of you my talented friend I appreciate that I've never really stopped to think about it It just comes out of me that way but thank you for that beautiful insight & such kind words I really like the way you sing & play I have subscribed to your channel I think you are extremely talented and I really enjoy listening to you so nice to have a new friend thank you so much for sharing sincerely DOM 🙏🎶🎤🎹🎸🥁🎧✌️😎
@@folkenbluzer Winning is not the important part, having fun and expressing yourself is the important part. I felt your emotion in your song and to me that is what music is about, conveying our emotions. Keep on rocking brother.👍
I got up to get to work and your upload was the first to watch, Folkenbluzer! Needless to say that it was a superb day! What vibes, what an amazing voice and, man, the composing abilities..... Respect! 1000 bravos for you, my dear friend!
Another excellent song as well as a magnificent and exciting interpretation, congratulations and thanks for sharing these moments-Greetings from Madrid and see you soon, like 146
My English is not great, but I understand most of what you sing, dear Folkenbluzer, and I understand the meaning! Level the borders between people, level the field. I love also your playing. Most of all I love the energy and the feeling coming from you, it takes me with you!
You have this special flame Al..I told before & telling you here again I love your musicality & universe mon ami! Big like192! Just hope World can hear your soul as we do..much success in this journey Al..peace & love to you & FF.
Your writing is surely excellent... it did not take you long to call me in and keep me listening to you... this sinks in on the spot and one instantly wants to listen to more ...thank you for the many emotions 🙏🌹
That was just one good day in winter I took advantage of. I really like those deeply emotionally incitefull songs you write! I'm always happy to know your still listening. This is the song I'm still most proud of writing. I still remember needing to find the original writter and performer of dirty boots. Just one of the many beautiful song of yours I enjoy!
Awesome Folkenbluzer! Good Ole Folk Rock done so well. Sounds like your entering a contest of some sort, good luck with it Brother as I think this is great Songwriting and an excellent performance. Well done!!!
Fantastic Folkenbluzer this is my kind of song with a message, wonderful singing and playing my friend and lyrics for all the decent common folk, this song is in the same powerful social commentary stylings as the likes of Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger and early Dylan, very well done a big thumbs up from me 👍🏼👏👏🎸🎤🙏🏻✊
You are such a GREAT songwriter!!!! ❤🌟💜🌟❤ Wow! Chills-really powerful deep lyrics, love your originals 🌟🌟🌟 Good luck in the contest!! You're amazing! 😻
Dam...Folkenbluzer, it was once said to me..."If you can't write songs that matter....just send them to a radio station" This is so well written and performed brother
Hello my friend. What a great song you did. Bravo, very good lyrics: if I close my eyes the melody reminds me a Dylan song .....and actually I feel like you got kind of his spirit here. Well done, just great. Like 56.
United Workers of the World was actually an ideal in the early 1900's that the old folk singers tried to help give voice to that never made it sadly . No matter where you are in the world the working class is kept from being too prosperous and some places are severely worse than others. We all just want to put in a good days work and get a good living out of it without having every aspect of that controlled by the nation's rulers. Like communism I guess would be the controlling every aspect thing I'm thinking about. Thanks Leela! I like the song with Kim and Gortium too!
Brother man Al, I thought this was great the first time I heard it and nothing has changed, I think you really pinned a winner here. Keep plugging, brother man 👍🏻
This is *really impressive* Folkenbluzer!!! Gosh what is so very cool is the meaning in your songs. You do have a special talent for that. Oh, and *Thank You!🎸🎸🎸*
Love your song mate !! You always tell us a full story !! Sure you know how too write a good song and perform it live super well !! Never heard of this contest . Sure it's an awsome entry !!! You're awsome !!!
