Description Ok, so in theme with the 10 Song Challenge that's going on with
and and

I had these words by Little Richard stuck in my head.....

Keep a Knockin'

keep a knockin' but you can't come in....
keep a knockin' but you can't come in....
keep a knockin' but you can't come in....
come back tomorrow night and try it again....



It's a really simple song, and a really simple manip, but I'm of a simple mind today so... Now I only have 8 more to go!!!

When I saw this it made me think of this song.

Rolling Stones
Can't You Hear Me Knocking lyrics

Songwriters: Jagger, Mick; Richards, Keith

(m. jagger/k. richards)

Yeah, you got satin shoes
Yeah, you got plastic boots
Yall got cocaine eyes
Yeah, you got speed-freak jive

Cant you hear me knockin on your window
Cant you hear me knockin on your door
Cant you hear me knockin down your dirty street, yeah

Help me baby, aint no stranger
Help me baby, aint no stranger
Help me baby, aint no stranger

Cant you hear me knockin, ahh, are you safe asleep?
Cant you hear me knockin, yeah, down the gas light street, now
Cant you hear me knockin, yeah, throw me down the keys
Alright now

Hear me ringing big bell tolls
Hear me singing soft and low
Ive been begging on my knees
Ive been kickin, help me please
Hear me prowlin
Im gonna take you down
Hear me growlin
Yeah, Ive got flatted feet now, now, now, now
Hear me howlin
And all, all around your street now
Hear me knockin
And all, all around your town


Another really nice work. I love the muted tones you use. You should submit this to manip-your music.

Hi! Thank you! I know the Stones but not that well, I don't know this song. Very cool that you would think of it! I did this piece thinking of Little Richard's song of the same title, "Keep a'knockin'" [link]


I am a contributor to #MANIP-YOUR-MUSIC . I'm pretty sure this piece is buried in there somewhere...I think?

Hi!!! I'm so glad to hear from you! I was just reading a note from and he was assuring me you didn't mind the butting in. I've got some folks who are asking about the challenge so now I know what to tell them.

And thank you so much. I'm glad you like it. I think you had a great idea to do this, a non-competitive challenge is perfect. Just for fun works for me!!

Hi!!! I'm always happy to see you, late or otherwise.

Thanks, Christian. It's all fault. He posted some really great pieces and mentioned the challenge and I had to ask and now I'm hooked.

My music taste is VERY eclectic. There's not much I don't like.

You went away and left me long time ago
And now you're knocking on my door
I hear you knocking
But you can't come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where you've been
