Chris did a video for our latest song and had some fun using some random clips of Marty and myself that we had shot for previous videos.

I think by using the forum media tag for the video instead of a straight link, it will bypass all the YouTube commercials?

You Always Meet Twice (2023, Chris Spruit)

Someone said if you carry on trying to break the rules
you might think that you get away with this poor behavior
Breaking the rules of some ones life
without blinking
But It ain't cool
to spill your fuel
of this cruel cool heart

Take your time
and choose well wise
what you have in mind
you are so convinced that you are right
a mastermind

But life has a rule
you always meet twice
and bring that to mind
in the hour you die
Then we will be wise

Chorus:
Cause The best you can
does not cut it for them
They yell the privileged lie
cause they are blind to that eye

No this ain't cool
Don't spill your fuel
into a burning heart
of this cruel, cool, heart

Hi BlueAttitude, Chris and Marty,

I like orchestration. Guitar solo and bass playing. The singer's voice is very captivating. It's sweet, it's nice and everything is super well done with this video. nice collaboration.

Kindly regard

Bravi. Top notch vocals from Chris, brilliant in every way from everyone else. Modern, sleek and "cool" sounding :-) One that I want to hear again. Well done.

Well...everything about that was cool! my first thought is how remarkable Chris's voice is...man that girl can sing!! Dave your solo work is crazy good and the tone you're getting is as smooth as butter...Marty is Mr. Consistent and the roundness and body of the bass tone is spot-on for the song...the skill level at which you guys perform and record is pro-level IMO...the video is the icing on the cake and seems to indicate that you guys are having great fun doing what you love! another super song and super performance!!

Good Blues Song... nice balanced production, sounds great. Nice guitar licks and vocals.

You three did a great job, and even though I didn't get the video, it was fun to see the outtakes from you.
Good song, good vocals, good guitar noodling and even the white bearded guy with that weird looking 4-string guitar did a good job

And, I think I've never mentioned this, your mixes sound really good, Dave.

Dave, Chris & Marty,

Besides the great music, the video was awesome! You guys have some great collaborations.

Enjoyed every minute!

Bob

Howdy Blue....

Very smooooooth track.
Some great playing by you and Marty.
Vox performed well and a good mix from my ears.
It's cool to put some names to faces also.

I dig it....well done!

LOVE that stinging guitar.
Marty's bass is an ace foundation as always & Chris's vocals are on point.
Well done one & all...a cool, cool thing.

Hi Guys,

Goodness! - you sure knocked the spots off this puppy.

Excellent vocal, terrific guitar and bass.

I enjoyed it a great deal.

Best Regards
Nigel

Thanks for the listen and comments, appreciate it!



Cheers, James.

Hello together
Cool song
Sounds great
Good idea to add your own little clips to the video ;-)
Great collaboration
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Dave, Chris & Marty,

I have only two words to describe your song and video,

loved it.

I like the opening drum bit.

Vocal is absolutely fabulous. I am assuming Chris wrote the music. The melody is mesmerizing.

The guitar solo is simply awesome, and that bass line drive the song.

I like the video. I was good to see you two codgers in action

Hi Dan,

Yes, it's all about having fun really, we have a blast putting these songs together.

Thanks very much for your kind words, very much appreciated!

Swinging blues!

This song really grooves with the bass and drums driving it, and the vocals and smoldering guitar lead stay in the groove.

This was a whole lot of fun to listen to.

Thanks for checking out the song!



Really appreciate that, Brian!

Dave, I've said this before (and I've said it many times to peeps you don't know) that you and Chris are incredible songwriters. Listening to you guys with your back-and-forth suggestions while you're building the song is almost as rewarding as playing on them and listening to them. Cool video too. Reminds me of some of the fun we had making songs. More to come...

Dave Marty and Chris'

I enjoyed this fine video Chris did! It was great to so see you all in a music production setting! It makes the music much more entertaining and reveals a little more of your personality!(That Marty must be quite a character to be around lol!) The tune is great with killer performances by all 3! Thanks, TB

Hi, Dave, Chris and Marty !


I´m late I know and do
apologize for that because
I could involuntarily have
missed this gem of yours
and I feel lucky I didn't !

Instead you treated me with
an absolutely superb tune
so delicately played and sung -
nothing short of a masterpiece
that is !

Great !

Cheers
Dani

Appreciate that, Bob!

I see you have a new one up, I'll be along shortly to give it a spin

Thanks to everyone for checking out the song/video, very much appreciated!

Ezekiel's Storm Scott, to answer your question, Chris wrote the lyrics, I wrote the music. (codgers eh?! )

Killer.

Everything about this sounds like a "major release".
The write, the vocals! the guitars! the Bass! - stellar.
The Production. The Mix. - stellar.

Tight. As. It. Gets.

If you had to pick a single from your album, it would be quite difficult because all your songs are so strong contenders, this sounds like the lead single in my ears. All your best trademarks are here, one of the best guitar soloing on Earth, smoothly riding bass and enjoyable vocals. And the lyric has a wise message.

Enjoyed the video very much. Nice to see your faces on the video, shows how you are a real band, and how much you have fun and personality, nothing too serious.

Janne

Blue Attitude team,
Superb addition to your collection! Excellent drive from everybody, but Dave outdid himself on this one One of the coolest blues guitar solos!
Nice to see musicians behind their art. No complaints & clear mix. Enjoyed it and thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Y’all are certainly “in the pocket” on this song and video!

It is soooo good to have the laughter of seeing your playful selves along side the serious lyric, and what a good lyric it is too.

Blue Attitude has a golden tone with the awesome vocal always from Chris, the smoky, rich guitar from Dave and the smooth, rock solid bass from Marty. And wrapped in an excellent mix.

Can you tell that we really like this?!

Awesome!

J&B

Loved this tune. Chris video was excellent. Very cool groove. I think Marty's bass lines made this a real toe tapper. Super vocal and guitar was excellent Dave. Well done

Great song guys!!!! AND What a rockin' solo!!! Mix and production are outstanding!!! Take care. Greg

BlueAttitude,

You’ve done it again . . . terrific rockin’ blues tune. Sick guitar playing and Chris’s vocals are just outstanding. Excellent work by all—

Best regards,

Deej

I've had a bit of a forced hiatus from the forum over the last couple of weeks.

Normally I wouldn't go back and comment on a song after it's been off the front page for so long, but I wanted to thank floyd, Janne, Misha, Janice and Bud, Scott, Greg, and Deej for taking the time to listen to and comment on the song while I was away, very much appreciated!

There will be no more comments on this thread from me. Time to see what everyone's been up to while I've been away!
