Hi all this is a new one I just put together.
All comments welcome.
Rob

My reckless heart

Weep like a willow - alone.
Fly like a sparrow - back home
I long to see you-again
Please dont deceive me like Ive been
........................................................
Now one seems to understand,
Why I have to go home.
I just need you in my arms and you know

when the clouds begin to part.
And before the stars have shone.
Its time to take my reckless heart and go home.
.....................................................................

bridge


You cause me grieving - you do
Alone in the evening - so true
Oh dont push me under again.
My heart beats like thunder -and then

Jeez what a cool song. The intro was very neat. Super fast pace and loved the way you delivered the vocal. Harmonies were excellent

Rob,

This had me bopping in a ride-em-cowboy way. That`s a perfect style you picked for the song and your vocals are just right.
Very good!

Right off the bat, the groove on this is infectious! It is wonderfully catchy, and gets you moving to it right away. Those harmonies too - they are absolutely on point!

Thanks so much for sharing smile

Hi Rob,

Somehow I missed this one a little earlier.

What an attention-getter! That intro was terrific and the rest of the song is equally excellent. And like Tom said, that baritone guitar is like magic in this sound. Totally loved this... my leg is still thumping! Really, really nice! And the vocal is fabulous! This is some great high-octane music!

Have a terrific weekend.

!!!ELVIS!!! Why you tricky, 'ol devil, you! I just knowed you wusn't daid! laugh

Frankie Lane, too, would've loved to take a crack at your song -- whiplashes an' all! It would make a fantastic main title song for a Western. Had me addin' my own vocal bass part -- bom, bam, bom, bam / bom, bam, bom, bam / bom, bam, bom, bam / bom, bam, bom-bom-bom-bam-BOOM!

"Rob4580", your song, "My Reckless Heart" was just a whole mess o' fun to listen to. I listened to it five consecutive times.

Brushin' off trail dust,

LOREN

Rob,

Excellent work! I love it. Especially the simple but attractive melody, the nice vocal with beautiful harmony, the bridging baritone guitar play, and the train beat. I enjoyed it very much.

Really love this whole thing man. Great band, great lyrics, great mix, great singing.

What else can you ask for?

Does have a slightly Elvis vibe, in a really good way though!!

OK, we definitely see the resemblance with Elvis here. And that is a compliment of course.
Very wise use of the baritone guitar.
