Hello All. This is another style from 2020 Band in a Box. All comments welcome. Rob4580 I Lay Beneath Snow The barman is closing he said you must get going he wore a wry smile in his face. One more for the road to ease my heavy load and I'll be out of this place. I think of my sweetheart who broke this old heart and I've missed her love all these years. So I keep on going her memories keep following so hard to fight back the tears. Now I will sleep sound in bed on the ground and lay beneath fresh mountain snow. I dream of her charms when she lay my arms held tight and not let me go. Bridge Now dream on sweat dreams and mend tattered seems and bring back the good times I've known. How we danced in the dark when you stole my heart now I sleep beneath fresh mountain snow. You'll find me in spring as I lay beneath sweet pine don't take me to some other place. You'll know I slept sound in my bed on the ground and I died with a smile on my face. The barman is closing he said you must get going he wore a wry smile in his face. One more for the road to ease my heavy load and I'll be out of this place. ****** Song Summary ************* Title:Lay Beneath Snow File:I Lay Beneath Snow.SGU Key=G , Tempo 40, Length (m:s)=3:18 1 bar intro, 28 bar chorus, from bar 2 to bar 29.

Love that slow 3/4. All the internal rhyme is great to hear and the story is straight-up country. I really enjoyed the western sliding-around of the melody. Don't take this wrong, but it so well fits the boozy story. Well put-together song and enjoyable listening.

Wow - I thought the groove was fantastic, and the story-telling on this is captivating and heart-felt. Very vivid, and despite being somewhat bleak, it felt necessary.
I'm a big fan of this one - thanks so much for sharing!
Cheers,

Great job! A little Johnny Cash vibe in this one. Can't go wrong with that.

The baritone tracks in BIAB are excellent - they don't seem to fit my tempos but they're cool and you've used them well.
Nice dynamic mix Rob.
You do the back woods melancholy oh, so well.
Cheers

This is a small masterpiece and no mistake. The lyrics are superb and the music is the perfect foil. I love the structure of the verse lines - and, though it gets bleaker as the song goes on, it is subtly and beautifully done ... the realisation that the person in the song actually dies creeps up on one before one knows it and strikes powerfully at one's awareness. In short: a genuinely excellent job - I loved it.

Rod,
A classic Country Folk sounding song. Good vocal, as always.
I did not much care for the snare sound. I though it was too loud (and a little odd) for this song.

Hi Rob
Really enjoyed this one.
Particularly the cadence of the lyrics and the sad tale.
A bit Johnny Cash and a bit Leonard Cohen.
Cheers.

Definitely got a Cash thing going here.
Lyrically and vocally it reminds us of some of his best...and we are fans.
The baritone guitars nailed it...good job.
We like it!!!

Rob,
Johnny Cash cool—love your vocal on this—sweet melody that keeps the ears listening. The drums do need to come down just a little bit—a bit harsh in spots. But that’s a minor nit, easily corrected if you agree. Killer throwback tune! Enjoyed it.
All my best,
Deej

A good country song, sound, smooth vocal, & delivery...
You have thematic shades similar to Lefty's "Long Back Veil" (Compliment)...
And I always enjoy hearing your new songs!

Nice work with the musicality of the lyrics--as mentioned earlier, skillful use of internal rhyme.
The BIAB style fits your song nicely.

Rob,
These Americana styles are a great fit for your voice and you matched the feel of the music with that sad story!
Very old west and enjoyable.
