Description : Last week I was at an open mic where a poet did a couple poems. I bought her book, and when I read it at home, one poem jumped out at me and practically begged me to make it into a song.

Kirsty kindly gave me permission to do so, so... here it is (or at least a first draft).

If you're interested, you can get the book from her site at kindredorange.co.uk.

And people... Let's stand up against AI and make our own creations. You don't need a giant data centre to make music.

Ehbadya 12th Aug 2026 23:24 - 2 months ago

Beautiful intro, lyrics, voice, and melody overall! Great work!

Mindway 11th Aug 2026 21:22 - 2 months ago

Pretty much everything you usually do gives me live jam out beach vibes in some way, and i always enjoy what you bring to the table. But this is a bit different, it is a really good track, great expression and emotion. I loved my listen

sounders 11th Aug 2026 20:44 - 2 months ago

Hey great stuff. I'm in West Norwood. Most likely try to see you at the Yurt on the 20th or on the 26th (is this when you will be doing original material). Where's the gig? What covers do you do in the band. Will DM if I need more det's in the meanwhile take care and catch up soon.

sounders 11th Aug 2026 11:17 - 2 months ago

Wow! Great song and playing, first it's good to hear of other writer's and Artist's out there creating and sharing their talent. it makes me feel good. Also Re:AI how can you claim to be doing the thing that your doing when none of what your doing is related to the thing that your doing in my opinion. It's a hot potato and one thing not considered is the peripheral pain and conflict created. I do hope to catch your live performances so keep me posted about up and coming gigs and jams. Best wishes and be well

BaoBou replied 11th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago

Hello mate! I'll definitely be 20/8 at The Yurt (Limehouse) but that's a gig with my coverband this time. I might play Saturday 15/8 in Walthamstow (open mic) and 26/8 in Camden, but not sure yet :) I also occasionally play in South London (Bekc=enham, Penge, Bromley) with the cover band.

Which part of London are you based?

Im just waiting for the day they invent a device I can tap on my skull that instantly downloads the kind of instrumental skills some of you guys have here on looperman. You guys play so damn well! And I absolutely love your vocals too, BaoBou. Solid stuff!

BaoBou replied 11th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago

Thanks a lot Richard! You know the secret sauce... practice practice practice :)

Geia sou file mou !! Hello Baobou ! I have the strong feeling that this specific track is mainly a product of inspiration and not so much of the habit of writing music !!! This is an amazing top quality artistic work .... an excellent track overall !!! Cheersssssssssssss !!

BaoBou replied 11th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago

Geia sou Fani mou! Well, it's always a combination of inspiration and experience, right? The more you do it, the richer and broader your inspiration becomes, I think.
Thank you very much for listening!

Zootman 7th Aug 2026 21:29 - 2 months ago

Hi Baobou, an excellent song. The keys, your voice and your guitar are evocative and emotive. The mood you create suit the words perfectly. Well done indeed. Gonna listen to the live version now. Cheers Chris.

Thanks Chris, always much appreciated to see your visit!

sayamrajsagar 7th Aug 2026 10:44 - 2 months ago

BaoBou replied 7th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago

Dhanyavahd my friend! I left it all a bit raw; I wanted the emption to come out, and I think that worked!

Yes, it is a sweet track. I especially enjoyed the piano playing and the lyrics in this one. It is poetry, rich with thoughts and meaning. Well done, BaoBou.
Best regards, Anthony

StarTravels 6th Aug 2026 03:12 - 3 months ago

Hey BaoBou, This is a wonderful rendition, with the instruments played superbly. Your guitar work, in particular, is impressive once again. You always approach your music with such genuine feelingits a breath of fresh air amidst all the fakery these days. Best regards.

BaoBou replied 7th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago

Thank you so much! wonderful words!

adamms 5th Aug 2026 22:05 - 3 months ago

Cool idea on how you got the lyrics, great song!

BaoBou replied 7th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago

I enjoy writing my own lyrics, but I've made at least half a dozen songs now after poems I read or heard; from an ancient Japanese poem to one that my daughter wrote to 2 different ones now by people I heard on open mic nights. Sometimes it just inspires you :)

Kayos2 5th Aug 2026 15:08 - 3 months ago

Kirsty Opal has beautiful l poetry and you delivered it in to beautiful lyrics from the heart. V Sweet track.

BaoBou replied 7th Aug 2026 - 2 months ago
