67 songs on my repertoire so far. Remembering all these lyrics (I don't use a prompter and won't ever) and arrangements imply playing a 12-14 songs set every single day, all year long.

Double Wow! I can't even contemplate being able to play and sing all of those songs. Olivier is my hero! |

Impressive list! And I see a few originals in there as well. Have you shared those here? I guess I will have to go back and have a look. Many of these songs were very popular in America, but I didn't realize there was such an international appeal. Do many folks recognize them in the places you play? I guess they go over well, since you spend time working on them. I am curious how you choose a song to add to your repertoire? I didn't intend to ask so many questions when I began this. Sorry. I have really enjoyed each video you have shared with us. Mike |

Oh yes, quite a lot of them are very popular over here. mike kemp wrote: I am curious how you choose a song to add to your repertoire? First of all, it has to be a song I like, which means mainly lyrics I can relate to in one way or another. It also has to be more or less popular. Then I download a tab and begin playing it in a very simple way. When I'm familiar with the chords, I begin to twist the arrangement in order to make the song more "mine" but still recognizable. Since I'm not a very good instrumentist, it would be a mistake trying to emulate the original version. |
