Sweet Devilish Style

While perusing some new styles in Band in a Box I came across _DEVLSH.STY and thought it was sweet, so I wrote this song. I was thrilled when Blue Attitude (Dave Bell & Christiane Spruit) decided to include it in their (our) repertoire. My 1st thought was to rewrite the lyrics to accommodate Chris's beautiful voice. She insisted I sing it, and I reluctantly agreed to comply. Chris did add a wonderfully devilish piano, and you all know Dave would lay down some outstanding guitar, and he did.

Then it came time for the video. Again they figured I should do it. Well, after looking all over the Internet for some free video clips to use, I give up. Chris brilliantly suggested I use metaphor instead of sexy, devilish women. Perfect! The song is not really about women; it's about avoiding temptation.

SWEET DEVILISH STYLE
I'm sittin' still on my window sill and I'm watching you walking by.
There you go with your smooth and slow catching every passing eye.
I can see it in your eyes you're the devil in disguise as you're strollin' with that sinister smile.
I can feel it in your feet as you're burnin' down the street with such a sweet devilish style.

I'm out at night just to watch the light that you shine around this lonesome old town.
You walk in and you flash that grin that says your smile will be the loudest sound.
I can see it on each face in the whole entire place that they dream to be with you awhile.
All I know is what I know, and I know you're here to show such a sweet devilish style.

You must remember how your child inside once warned of putting good looks first.
If you don't see how that story ends, you're bound to bare your very worst. SOLO

Still peakin' (thrilled) from my window (chilled), when I spy you slowly sauntering by.
There you go with your... I don't know... What's that fire there between your eyes?
I can see it in your walk. You're a stoned, cold bitter rock, and a vile vixen. Versatile.
So I'll stay right here inside. It's the safest place to hide from such a sweet devilish style.
I said I'll stay right here inside. It's the perfect place to hide from such a sweet devilish style. Sweet. Devilish. Style.

Your comments and suggestions are SO VERY HELPFUL, and I'm so very grateful for your time


Enjoy whatever happens!

Marty (and crew!),

The first thing that struck me (after the cool opening) was how amazing the mix is. The vocals are perfectly settled into the mix (in a good "Rock way") and crystal clear.

And what a terrific vocal it is!

Then that bass goes right to the heart. Sweeeet. And, oh, that amazing guitar - great tone and playing (of course). There were times I thought the piano could have been slightly louder. I was expecting some Chris BGVs towards the end...

A good write. Much enjoyed.

Wow, great collaboration! I'm glad you sang yourself, very strong and vivid singing. Cool blues band, great bass and piano playing, and Dave's guitar is sweet and devilish, perfectly expressing that sinister smile.

Love the inspiration found in just a style-name. smile

"There you go with your... I don't know..." Just why this outstanding line stands out in a stand of stand-out lines, I don't know. But I like it.

Sweet devilish vocals and melody. Band is strong and the mix sounds good to me. Guitar and bass are working well together. That little bass run at the end is cool.

Now if y'all can just get Dave to sing one...

Hugely enjoyed here.

Love this song, Marty. Your vocal is great - just the right amount of devil grin
The production, as expected, is first class and Dave's guitar just sings.
After a bit of a break from the forum, the first artists I listened to today were Janice and Bud, Steve Young, Tommy Adams and you.
I also submitted a song this week but I have to admit the production standards from you guys are a little intimidating.
Great work everyone.
Cheers,
Mike

Marty (& band)

Great intro.

Excellent vocal, bass (nice ending) & piano and I agree with floyd an amazing mix and sound.

Love Dave's melodic playing on this - some really nice note choices.

Wonderful work and a great collaboration.

Thanks so much, Floyd. Video... well, I haven't gotten to it yet. The vids that Chris does for Blue Attitude are so much better (and relevant to the song) than mine with just my pix and lyrics. Here's one I did my way, but BA's is not ready yet. http://martystraub.com/BabuMusic/videos/sweetdave.mp4

Hi Marty,

I liked your singing a lot in this very cool song! I think you sang with great pleasure, didn't you?
The leadguitar is brilliant. I agree it is better you did the singing on this one. Chris can't sing about herself ;-)
But she compensates a bit on the piano.

I liked it on soundCloud but saw I was the only one there. Didn't expect that given the quality of the song!

Devilishly good. Nice idea, outstanding production, really good vocal (I was also hoping for Chris to chime in at some point) and reliably wonderful guitar work by Dave.

Marty, way to "go with" the style and make something really fine. I liked the entire thing--esp your vocal "tricks" to give it personality. Nice lyric, great mix, all-around top-notch!

HI Marty (those other super folks) ..

what a really fabulous song. As Floyd said ... the vocal is so dang good. The mix shines ... pro all the way. Great lyric and Dave's guitar is always smooth as warm butter. Everything fits so nicely in its place. This is a great song and delivery of it.

I also agree with the comment that the piano could have been more up front. But, as I said ... really sweet as is. Glad you found that style and went with it.

best to ... all three of you. Be safe ...

Alan

Hi Marty + team,

Well, I know by now that you're a great bass player, but now I realise
you're a great vocalist as well. What a super, powerful, confident delivery.
Very impressive!

And a great band too. Dave's excellent guitar work in all the right places and
some beautiful piano from Chris.

All wrapped-up in a great mix.

Loved it.

ROG.

Thanks so much, Mike! I'd say I'm glad you're back, but I wasn't here when last you were, so... I'm happy you're here! I thoroughly enjoyed Are We There Yet, and can't wait for more.

Thanks, Peter. That intro reminded me of Here Comes Peter Cotton Tail, and it seemed to fit the idea of the song.

Thanks, Hans. I always enjoy reading your comments here and in others' posts. Yes, it was a pleasure to sing --especially since I had no bass in hand. AND, because I wrote it, no one can say I sang it all wrong! Keep up the good word.

Thanks, Leon. I was willing to rewrite the whole tune for Chris to sing when her and Dave wanted to do it as a Blue Attitude song. I felt like Ringo wrote a song and didn't ask John or Paul to sing it --not even George.

I like how the magic happens when you stumble into a new style that just speaks to you.

It's obvious that this one did the trick. I like how you used the name of the style in the song. cool.

Nice work on the bass, piano and guitar.

Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library. You'll get new country-rhythm guitar styles from PG Music favorites Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason, along with modern-pop grooves that capture today’s radio-ready sound! There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
