You sing the heck out of this, Marty and your bass is, as always, buttery smooth. Dave’s solo and fills capture the emotion within the lyric.

We enjoyed the video and noticed something new each time we watched. Also both of us had a chuckle when we saw that “tempting” apple.

And yea for the happy ending for the couple!

Hi, Janice & Bud. Thanks so much. Yeah, I'm with ya on the Dave filling out the emotion so well. Ah, don't give into the temptaion. That apple was probably painted and some oil was applied to it just to look good.

Cool, slower blues. Loved lower/deeper vocals. Ace bass playing and it's mixed in very well (I always have issue with that) Dave's signature playing & sound fits perfectly. Good listen and thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Thanks, Misha. Yeah, my comfort zone only goes to about an E(2), so that low stuff is more relaxed. You're right about Dave. He has many hats and they all fit like gloves. Are you saying you usually have an issue with MY bass in the mix, or in general? Yeah, being the bass guy I often think it'd be better to have someone else mix my songs. Of course, no one wants that job. I try to be vigilant, yet always want to hear the bass better.

Anyway, very fruitful story and your singing is very natural and convincing with many nice details that support the message. Too bad that I din't even notice the BIAB instruments, because RealDave and RealMarty are so goood smile

A happy ending and no mention of stuffing my things into a matchbox at a quarter to three in the morning. laugh There's plenty of excitement and drama at home. Thanks for saying that about not noticing the BiaB guys. I love that about them. They play perfectly, and you don't notice them unless you mute them. Then you notice the song really needs them.

Enjoy whatever happens!
