Here's an upbeat island-style bouncy reminder that sometimes a break-up is what's best for everyone. I hope you enjoy it.

https://soundcloud.com/sam-buttrey/sheleftme

Style is _POPCALP.STY (Pop Calypso Even 16ths )
RealTracks in style: 1174:Bass, Electric, PopCalypso Ev 100
RealTracks in style: 1422:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm PopCalypso Ev 100
RealTracks in style: 1175:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm PopCalypso Ev 100
RealTracks in style: 1177:Guitar, High-Strung Acoustic, Rhythm PopCalypso Ev 100
RealDrums in style: PopCalypso^1-a:Snare, Closed HiHat , b:Snare, Ride

Steel drums came in as audio from my Yamaha WX-7500. Eq and Reverb from Reaper.

"She Left Me"
===============
I met my baby on a Saturday night,
And we talked for hours in the cool moonlight,
You know we saw the world in such similar ways,
I said "she's the one for the rest of my days."

(Chorus 1)
She met me, she met me,
I can still remember that smile,
She met me, she met me,
Oh, it's love that makes our time here worthwhile.
Yes, it's love that makes our time here worthwhile. (Hey!)

Through the laughter and through the tears,
I thought we'd be together for a million years,
But my baby left me, she's gone away,
You know, all that's human must decay.

(Chorus 2)
She left me, she left me,
And it came as quite a surprise,
She left me, she left me,
But it helped me see myself through her eyes.
Now I see the world through other folks' eyes. (Hey!)

Took me ages to understand,
But now I've made myself into a better man
It's a lesson I won't have to learn twice,
Those were times of sadness, well worth the price.

(Chorus 3)
She left me, she left me,
But now I've learned to seize the day,
She left me, she left me,
You know, all of us, we must pass away.
You know, all that lives, it must pass away. (Hey!)

I really enjoyed this one smile It reminds me a lot of Jimmy Buffet. I'm loving how you incorporated the steel drums here. The summery, upbeat vibe sounds authentic and the harmonies on the hook came out really nice.

It's a lovely little tune you got here - thanks so much for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

When I read the thread title, I was definitely not expecting an island vibe for the song! A nice surprise. Thanks for sharing!
