Get Go To The Get Out (If you have any SC problems there is another link at the bottom of the lyric.) For the first time ever on this forum regarding one of our songs I will say “turn this one up!” Our last three posts (Hard Times, WTG and Joey) were all pretty mellow country/folk/blues. Janice and I listen to a lot of Lucinda Williams, old and new, and we thought we’d try something in that neck of the woods. Meaning? A gritty girl song with some serious attitude. So I tried to write something for her express this. For sure no profundity in the lyric just, hopefully, some get the heck outa here attitude for Janice to vocally riff with. Tom (tommyad) played rhythm guitar and a solo that clearly established that this girl is POed! Floyd jane joined in with some harmony and this is the result. Thanks guys!! A little different for us but BiaB made us do it  Comments are always welcome. Thanks for your listening time. Oh, for you folks around the world “get go” is USA slang for the “beginning.” But then y’all may have started it! J&B Tommy: Rhythm and lead guitar Janice: Vocal lead and harmony (Rodes NT mic/Blue Icicle interface) floyd: Vocal harmony Bass: RT1843 Ctry Swing Rhythm guitar: RT 1013 Blues Rock (rendered Direct Input from BiaB with a Logic Pro X distortion amp sim added) Drums: RD N’ville Swing 8ths All track and mastering effects via Nectar 2 and/or Ozone 6 Get Go To The Get Out V1 You had my last call, burned your last bridge Pack it up, move on, take all your baggage Don’t wanna hear from you or your friends I'm closing up, it’s too late to think about amends Refrain You may not care, I know what you’re about Cause I've made it from the get go to the get out V2 It took a while for me to outrun all your rules I’m a survivor, not like your string of fools You only love those (that) you can control And grab all you can before things get old Refrain You may not care, I know what you’re about Cause I've made it from the get go to the get out V3 There are two mountains you’re gonna have to climb Straighten yourself out, that'll take some time I’ll help you with the other one, it’ll be easy All you gotta do is stay away from me Refrain You may not care, I know what you’re about Cause I've made it from the get go to the get out I made it through the get go to the get out Get out get out get out, etc. copyright 2015 Janice and Bud Merritt Alternate Link To Listen: Get Go To The Get Out

Ooh yes!!
Very, very nice, such a fine groove.
Everything works in this one, top-notch vocals from Janice, Tommy is in perfect shape and Floyd's backing vocal also gives that extra harmonic touch.
One of your best we think!

Hi there Janice & Bud + Tom & Floyd.
Great song.
Super performance from Janice, as usual.
I liked the way you managed to work in some rock and blues and yet still retain a country feel to this one.
Very professional all round. Well done team.
ROG.

Hi Janice, Bud, Tommy, floyd! Yep! It worked for me all the way from the intro to the outro. This is definitely showcase collaboration material at its absolute best. If this song was a colour, it would have to be 'sparkling gold'; no question about it. Also, congratulations on coming up with such a great hook! My favourite rhyme was bridge/baggage. After I heard it, I sat here thinking, "I wonder why can't I think of rhymes like that. That's really good." Immediately after that thought swept through my head, I found myself wondering how bridge/garbage would have worked in the same place. I didn't ponder that for too long, though, because then I refocused on the song  It's such an excellent musical journey that you've all created. And so very well presented in every way - Janice's and floyd's vocals, Tommy's guitar work, and Buds arranging and mixing. "BIAB made me do it"!!!! LOL. Ain't that the truth. So many genres of composing possibilities and so few hours in a day. OK ... I'm heading back for my fifth listen now! All the best to everyone, Noel

Thanks to everyone who commented on the wild guitar lead. I was having trouble with the fact that it was so unconventional, but Janice straightened me out by explaining that it mirrored the singers emotions. I also would like to bring attention to the arrangement where Bud used snare in the verses and side stick in the choruses which is very unconventional but worked perfectly. Great job on the lead and background vocals and thanks for the opportunity to participate. Tom
