Hi All, This is called Let Go Blues. You think it’s easy living with our dreams If you do give me the secret to your scheme I’d be happy just to walk these city streets Together or alone or up a creek I guess I’ve made up my mind don’t you know We should drift like the cold wind blows the snow But, you don’t have the nerve to let me go I don’t have the speed so I go slow You don’t have the spark you don't have the glow But, I don’t have the nerve to let you go You give a city skyline time and it will rise If you look away it will fall before your eyes I’m lost without the words you can’t speak Together or apart or in defeat I guess it’s complicated I don’t know We should count our time that flies like the crow But, you don’t have the nerve to let me go I don’t have the speed so I go slow You don’t have the spark you don't have the glow But, I don’t have the nerve to let you go You think it’s easy work to stay the course If we converse we’ll only up hoarse I’d be lying just to tell you something neat Together or between or week to week I guess the thread unraveled don’t you know We should let city lights show what they show But, you don’t have the nerve to let me go I don’t have the speed so I go slow You don’t have the spark you don't have the glow But, I don’t have the nerve to let you go All BIAB Tracks: 366: Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065 362: Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 085 362: Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 085 2446: Guitar, Baritone Electric, Background Ev 065 RealDrums: NashvilleEven16 Sidestick HiHat Thanks for listening!

Love that baritone guitar. Nice mix.
"You don’t have the spark you don't have the glow
But, I don’t have the nerve to let you go"
That's a good lyric!

The baritone is ace.
A lovely collection of contradictions.
I must admit to being partial to perfect rhymes.
Good, good song.
Cheers

Hi Bob,
This is what blues is made for; misery, but told in an attractive way!
and that is what you did in this song. A bariton guitar is also perfect in it, and so it fits very nice in your song.
But its your voice that underlines that misery. You almost feel as if it is happening to yourself when hearing you sing like this (consider this as a compliment ;-))
About the lyrics: I would have left her. Can't live like that...
Hans

Nicely done - loved the guitar work here. I'm a sucker for blues, and this definitely scratched that itch. Some good lyrics too, and the mix is concise and professional sounding. Thanks for sharing
Cheers,

Oh, so nicely done, Bob. Great choice of band, and, yes, that baritone really makes it. [AND, YES, I THINK DAVE SHOULD BUY ONE.] Wonderful vocal with a lot of feel.

Another good one, Bob.
Excellent vocal delivery. Good mix.
That baritone solo sounds like you hired someone to do that specifically for the song.
Enjoyed.

Love the imagery. Especially love "We should drift like the cold wind blows the snow" "We should count our time that flies like the crow" "We should let city lights show what they show", as a lover of lyrics you always come up with some great lines. Glad to see you're still on top of your game.

Bob,
A very good write- the chorus says so much about the relationship with a few words - and your delivery carries the sadness.
As always that baritone sounds made for your music.
Another fine song; you are on a roll!

"But, you don’t have the nerve to let me go
...But, I don’t have the nerve to let you go"
An excellent and creative way of stating the conundrum.
A different take all the way through on the we both don't know
how to get out theme.
Your plaintive vocal carries the melody well and your
signature baritone guitar is very nice. The background
style is all you need for something a bit more than
just rhythm.
Oh, and, of course a fine mix!
Enjoyed it.
J&B

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
