Kate thank you much for your kind words and positive review of my song. You know I haven't heard of a New Wave Rock song either until i saw the word in your review. I have always struggled to find the right genre for that song. I think you brought me a step closer. Thx Ante

Hey Kate, Thank you so much for the kind review of my song, "The Love I Wanna Show"! I am glad you "Got the song". It was a wedding song I wrote several years back....also it is kind of an Anniversary Song, too. You heard the solo vocal-guitar version. I do have a BAND version, too. Oddly enough, it was not on the Broadjam site, so I am re-posting it. Several years ago, it won the "Best Philosophical Song" contest at Broadjam, back when they had a broad-based monthly song contests. I think you will like the band version. Simple, sweet almost Beatles-like...with those thumpy Ringo drums.

I also noticed you compare yourself to Peter, Paul and Mary. Interesting. I once toured for Mary Travers as her opening act. She did NOT like me, as she felt I put on a better show than her. I told her, "I am being paid to give the audience a nice experience and set them up for you!" She wanted Steve Goodman to be her opening act. I loved opening for her, though. She had a nice crowd who came to her shows. They paid me well, too. My last show was at THE club in Georgetown in Washington. They loved me there and let loose with a great series of shows. After my last show, MAry came over and said, "Thank you, you do fabulous shows. Dylan told me about you. He was jealous of you." Then she had me an envelope and whispered, "Here's something extra for you, but you will never open for me, again". At that point, I realized she had been abused by people....but not me. Best to you. Chester. PS Check out the band version!

Nothing Over Me

I went to school and I saw all of you talking , I know you were talking about me
You think I'm really dumb ,but I got news for you,Im smarter, Then all of you

I'm smarter then all of you
I'm smarter I'm stronger I'm louder, you're weaker then me
Smarter, Stronger can't pull nothing over me
Nothing over me

So I went home, I was walking by myself, thinking of how of all you treated me
And If ruled the world, I'd put all of you on an Island..... All by yourselves.

I'm smarter I'm stronger I'm louder, you're weaker then me
Smarter, Stronger can't pull nothing over me
Nothing over me

Its okay I'm better I'll forget all o you
Its no wonder your a lonely bunch with all the things that you do

I thought that I knew, I knew all of you but I didn't, you were all just fooling me
And If I were a queen, I send all of you to slay a dragon without a sword

I'm smarter I'm stronger I'm louder, you're weaker then me
Smarter, Stronger can't pull nothing over me

outro
