This is a bluesy tune with a little country in it, and it is a lot of fun to sing. The idea came up in a chat with @yidneth on my last open mic post, Time to Fade, and I went and wrote a song that was sparked from that comment thread.
Thanks for the inspiration, Pris!
I put on my sexy-new-rock-n-roll shirt and some shades for this one. Fun, fun, fun!
Thick Walled Tender Heart

Congratulations! In my opinion you're very talented. This music is not really my style but your voice is special, I think no matter what you sing, your voice is that will always be remembered. It happens to me sometimes that can't remember the lyrics of the song but the voice stuck in my head. Your voice is like that. Keep up the good work!

They may look like cuts but they are like the heart-chain of life. Loving aint always easy and its the loving that counts, I wouldn't lose a single crack or cut, to have an untarnished heart.

@katrina-ariel Congratulations on your beautiful and tender voice. You sing with a great passion. I also like your shirt with the cute model on the front. What a great job for this contest with this song interpreted in a great and magical way. Good luck in this contest. A big greeting. Your hat has a very beautiful color and suits you very well. Great shot.

Thank you for sharing your song with us @katrina-ariel. I love how your voice moves into falsetto, back and forth throughout the song and the strumming definitely gave it a country feel :) I can relate to this, my thick-walled of tender heart is probably thin-walled and has many cracks, some got patched up and healed, some still there but am learning to patch them quickly when it starts to crack. It takes quite an effort but when there is a will, there is a way? :) Love your top and hat (both the video with the feather and the purple/pink furry one) :)

This is splendid and beautiful as well it's definitely a little bit like Country because you sounded like it and looked like it, dark shades and a lovely hat to match.
sometimes we don't know where inspirations comes from but we embrace it lovingly and pour our heart out.
I love the song really, that acoustic guitar did justice to your voice, and this is totally splendid. Cheers I love this.

Hey @katrina-ariel, thank you for sharing your song, it is an unique talent to compose and be able to sing and also to accompany with guitar, one man performance that is a feature of a talented person. It is a fun how you came up with the idea of text from the comments simple but creative too. Great that you have such good friends supporting you too, wish you success and hope to hear from you soon,
Cheers, from art-supporting blog @art-venture

I like how you present yourself. You look so cool. Sunglasses, cowboy hat and a guitar. You have a lovely voice do you know that? If i want to pick something to comment, is only the sound system not good. How long it took you to composed this song? I love the lyrics and how you present it with guitar. and the lyrics was so meaningful. All the best in your contest.

Thank you very much! heh... I think part of it is cemented, part of it is stone, and a lot of it is patched together with whatever else I can find. Spiderwebs of memories n' stuff. ;)
