Many thanks, Mike! A few more coming, over time. Hope I will maintain the folk feel; some folks previously set Housman's poems to more classical or orchestral style music and I don't think they worked as well...
Hey, Paul--thanks for listening (or trying to...). I noticed when I posted the song that it seemed to be too loud. Maybe too much guitar and not enough vocal? I'll go back and listen to it, and see if I can do better in the future.
If he were alive, I think A.E. Housman would be paying you for converting his poems to song. A song
entitled "God Will Save the Queen" should have a traditional English folk melody, and you found it.
I think you made listening to his poem, fun. Nice job!

Hi Chuck,
No big problem
P:)
A fine tune, but barely could hear the lyrics.
