I wish busking was a thing in my country..
People will just walk buy and ask you to get a job ...lol.
But I love the feeling, mostly seen in movies. I have my hat and my guitar tho.

And a beautiful song like yours.

Its a pity you cant busk in your country.

I guess one day if you have enough money to travel you could come to the UK and travel around with your hat and guitar and busk here.

You dont need a license or anything like that , you can just travel and sing in the streets.You would probably make back the money you spend to travel here.

Yesterday I watch a couple of films about busking.

This first one is from 2007 ,its called once and its set in Dublin , Ireland ,you can find it here.

This song called Falling Slowly is the main song of the film.I love the melody of it ,you should try and use it for a song,its beautiful.

Here is a good tutorial for it...

The other one is a short film I found on youtube ,its called Buskers.The song the kid is signing at the start is called "Dirty Old Town" Im going to learn it today and make a video later.

Oh wow..
Lol..I do hope to soon get enough money to travel the world busking..

I ll go through these links.

I think its just not a formal tradition here, most people have commercialized music, no one does music for free like that except in churches or upcoming artiste who have to pay to get a song done.

What country are you in?

I m in Nigeria

I'm in Scotland in the UK ,I'm part of a nice little community of musicians / buskers here. If you ever come here I can help you find places to play and introduce you to other musicians.
