Default Could I write you a song about Harleys?

Hi Folks,

I'm a songwriter and write all kinds of stuff.
For a laugh, if you wanted me to try, I'm reasonably confidant thatI could write one which you'd hopefully like about Harley Davidson bikes.[sm=trust_me.gif]

Along with a great friend/biker/DJ/musician in the US, I wrote one about Kawasaki bikes called "On my Kawasaki Dream" and at the moment it's at 18 out of 15,995 songs in the Guitar Rock chart at Soundclick.com (the story behind the words is quite funny and is posted at Soundclick) www.soundclick.com/caroldouglas

Someone giving a review at another music site suggested we change the words to reflect Harley Davidson instead, thenre-record. I've already amended the words and I'm sure RS Cain would re-record if anyone thought it was a good idea.

Because you'rereal HD fans, (and many I'm sure are music fans or musicians yourselves)
I'd love yourcomments.
Happy Christmas to all,
Take care,
Carol. x

PSYou can hear more bikers songslike "Choke your motor" at RS Cain's own page

Retool a Kawasaki song to make it a Harley song??? Sounds like something the Japanese would do.

Nope sorry. If you want to get it right you need to go ride Harley for a while then start from scratch.

Carol: You had me nodding in agreement until your suggestion to re-cycle (a pun) a Kawasaki song into a Harley-Davidson song. What? H-Ds are only worth you plagiarizing yourself? I don't think so............ As suggested; buy and ride a H-D for a few years and then come back with an ORIGINAL song. ............... BC

You could do a seasonal tune to that old Burl Ives classic. "Have a Gnarly Harley Christmas"
