Those Eyes Here is an old one brought up to date with one of the new styles. A little rough round the edges but the new style gave it quite a lift. Leon lyric & vocal. I played intro harmonics, and acoustic guitar along with the Fingerpicking real track. Once the band starts I played the additional dobro and guitar solo at the end. Style is _SMBRERO.STY (Sombrero Dreamy Tex Mex Country) RealTracks in style: 1293:Bass, Electric, TexMexCountry Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 693:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming AcRockBright Ev 120 (B:eighths) RealTracks in style: ~522:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 120 RealTracks in style: ~543:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Dreamy Ev 120 RealDrums in style: TexMexCountryEv8^1-a:Groove, Shaker & Scrapper , b:Ride, Shaker & Scrapper Those eyes Who could resist the lure of those eyes The way they sparkle the way they hypnotise surely I can’t be blamed for falling in love with you it seems to me to be the only possible thing to do oh those eyes will be the death of me clear as the sky deep as the sea oh those eyes the things they see brim full of life and complexity who could resist the lure of those lips when she smiles the men run for the ships surely it’s not my fault that I’m head over heels for you it seems to me to be the only acceptable thing to do oh those lips they’ll be the death of me soft as a breeze sweet as honey from the bee oh those lips all the things they do weaken my knees whisper a fond adieu who could resist the power of her mind delicate, funny insightful and refined surely I’ll be forgiven for loosing my heart to you it seems to me to be the only sensible thing to do Who could resist the lure of those eyes The way they sparkle the way they hypnotise surely I can’t be blamed for falling in love with you it seems to me to be the only possible thing to do oh those eyes etc

I loved the opening intro. Very nice chord progression that matched the Xtra style quite well.
Enjoyed my listen.

I also really liked the intro and the style fits very well- it sounds relaxed so no need to smooth the edges... and capped with a tasty guitar solo at the end. love the lines:

Peter, I really like the interesting intro and the build.
Great effort.
The style sits perfectly. Nice job with the vocal doubling.

Hi Peter and Leon,
Wow, really like this one! I was waiting while listening to the verse, what the chorus would sound like, well: that was no disappointment. Leon, very good vocals on this one too. Your best to date I think.
