Hi, Bob !


What a superb tune Bob !
IMO it is your best
(at least of those I have
heard)! I was harmonizing to
it (automatically) how nice a tune
really !

Cheers
Dani

A lot of the TV shows we watch these days have current "alt" type music playing during some scenes and at the end when the credits roll....
This could EASILY be used for that.

I totally agree with Floyd.

This is your best to date.

Bob,
Those strong rhymes and simple lyrics lets the listener float away on your catchy melody.
No one does upfront vocals as well as you,and the arrangement is beautifully done.
Loved this!

The melody and instruments support your vocal and lyric so perfectly. Janice was swaying back and forth while listening. smile

The steel is a wonderful addition.

We love these lines:

“You know I need the rain today
Gonna cleanse my blues away”

We've been on a bit of an Americana binge of late and as we always look forward to your new songs this was very special.

Excellent!

Bob,

Love this one--nice 70's vibe going on with this. Great opening two lines, and the rest that follows is equally impressive. Cool vocal, crisp production. Like that pedal steel as well. Bravo!

All my. best to you--

Nice to hear an upbeat song from you for a change smile Catchy melody, I could imagine singing this on the backseat of a car during a long journey home, sad that it is over, but happy how it was. Nice modern sounding arrangement. Great vocals. Beautiful drawing on the Soundcloud page.
