Hi all wrote this a little while back.

Get Me Back To You

I went out late last night to see were you had gone.
Searched every bar and honk tonk for you.
Been searching high and low till my tear drops start to
flow.
Please find a way to get me back to you.

Chorus
I'm going down heart break road again.
Your coming back but I don't know when.

Bridge

Chorus
I'm going down heart break road again.
Your coming back but I don't know when.

Verse

Then I saw you walking bye mascara stained your eyes.
You covered up your face not let me see.
Though there's no need to cry wont be fooled by your lies.
Honey wont you come on back to me.

Bridge

Chorus
I'm going down heart break road again.
Your coming back but I don't know when.

I went out late last night to see were you had gone.
Searched every bar and honky tonk for you.
Been searching high and low till my tear drops
start to flow.
Please find a way to get me back to you.

Chorus
I'm going down heart break road again.
Your coming back but I don't know when.

Chorus
I'm going down heart break road again.
Your coming back but I don't know when.
Your coming back but I don't know when.

A fast rockabilly folk style that features a classic rockabilly electric guitar
playing blues and rock 'n' roll licks.
Two acoustic guitars strum similar patterns
but one has six strings and the other has twelve.
The acoustic bass plays "in 2", often alternating between the root and fifth.
RockabillySwing^ RealDrums play in their first variation,
which includes simple toms in the A section and tom 8ths in the B section.
This song is in the key of A and uses pop and dominant chords that change every 2 to 8 beats.

Great voice. So rich and full. I like this song. It's very Country circa 1970's, which is to say the best era, in my opinion. Nice work.

Nicely done - love the groove on this one, and it's a great throwback to 70's era country. Got my toe tapping from the get go, and your vocals work perfectly over the instrumentation.

Thanks for sharing smile

Best I've heard from you, I like the way the vocals build up in the first line of your chorus, reminds me of Buck Owens, very effective. Good singing as usual.

Hi Rob,

I don't know much about Country, but this one seems to be a very classic one to me. It got a real good flowing rhythm, you sing it authentically (which means VERY WELL) and I do like the soloing guitar - well chosen.

You know what? My advice: Forget about her or you'll end up in Heartbreak Hotel... smile

Regards,

Stefan

Rob,
very well made and written.
Your rich voice is Cocky's Joy on damper.
I did feel the solo guitar wasn't quite up to the song's standard.


Cheers

Hello, 'Rob4580'...

Seems to me I haven't heard a post from you in a long while. Regardless, this song, Get Me Back to You, has a convincingly lonesome sound, even as it as swings like a jukebox selection heard in a roadside diner.

All of the Real Track instruments have a clear, clean presence that, with addition of the reverb FX you applied, make the song sound like something that walked through a door out of the past, and into the present. The bass thumps in time like an expectant heart. The cymbal crash that ends the song was theatrical enough to get a round of applause from an imaginary audience showing their appreciation for the bands' musicianship smile.

Your lyrics evoke a time and a place that still lives in our hearts, and the way you sang them would have girls rushing up to the stage to have you blow kisses at them laugh !!!

Enjoyably,

LOREN (a.k.a. 'bluage')

Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
