Ah - classic Blue Attitude returns! What a great song. I've missed hearing Chris' fabulous voice. Can't go wrong with Marty on bass. And your guitar playing is always so good. With that combination, how can you go wrong?

This is good in so many ways. Reallly good music!

Hi Dave.

You, Chris and Marty have done a superb job.
This is top-shelf music in every possible way.
As always, the production screams "professional" for all the right reasons... writing, performing, arranging, mixing.
I love what you've done and how you've done it.
The three of you really have the knack for creating an amazing listening experience.

--Noel

Very cool and energetic tune. A+ performance by all, but Chris is a star of this show. Crazy good progression. Mix is very professional. One of your best tunes for sure. Enjoyed it and thank you for sharing.

We love the lyric and this resonated with us about our home town:
“The air feels heavy, but no thunder breaks
I’m stuck in this place”

Excellent vocals by Chris (great to hear her) and the harmonies by y’all.

Great driving bass that keeps the feeling of moving on.

Cool arrangement and all is wrapped in a stellar mix.

The video is cool and we especially like the opening street level scene of people and dogs walking.
AND the crowded scene of people with the nightmare reference in the lyric.
AND the changing clouds during your excellent solo.
AND the falling heart shaped leaf too.
Think that about covers it. smile

Enjoyed it!

PS Bud also likes using DI RT’s guitar tracks. Logic Pro has around a zillion amps. smile

What a tremendous trio you three are! All the elements are there . . . and off the charts: The lyrics, the vocals (including the BGVs), the music, the lead guitar and mix. All first rate! Another killer tune!

Very nice to hear Chris back in the business. Closer to fast pop rock reminding me of Moonlight Shadow and Dire Straits, but the blues is still present in the lyrics and Dave's guitar stretching. "The sky is dark, but the sun won’t set" and "The air feels heavy, but no thunder breaks" create a strong, oppressive atmosphere. The energetic tempo expresses nicely the hectic town life, but also the endless creativity flow of Blue Attitude. Chris's voice, Dave's playing and Marty's bass sound like you have all been drinking from the fountain of youth, nothing can stop you now.

I'm a huge Dire Straits fan, Janne, first few albums especially, love that laid back groove!

Thanks for the great review, very much appreciated!

The trio is back. That is one heck of a rocking bassline. Excellent vocal--Chris is sounding 80s here. Guitar solo accentuates the song without hijacking the song--brilliant!
