This song is the story of a love/hate relationship that went on for over fifteen years. They were both very good friends of mine and no one can say they didn’t try, but in the end they couldn’t make it work. I have lost contact over the years, but I sure hope they found some happiness in their lives. Everyone deserves some of that. https://soundcloud.com/tommyad/tom-adams-little-voiceshttp://tommyadamsmusic.com/musichttp://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13408576 RealTracks in style: ~388:Bass, Electric, Metal Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 629:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopAmericanDirty Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 632:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopAmericanMuted Ev 120 RealTracks in style: ~405:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 120 Royalty Free Loops, Multitrack Instrument and Song Files and Multitrack Drums from Drums on Demand Vocals, Electric Guitars, Tom Adams Little Voices That first cool breath of winter feels like something's off this year Could it be a warning sign or just the fact I came back here Maybe this was a bad idea to try this one more time A normal man would have walked away saying we can't make this right I've been praying for a week now and it's gettin hard to see If I can count on your forgiveness for the man I used to be Guess it's just the ugly truth you can't out run the past I hear those little voices saying we will never last Times were tough and all that stuff in the baggage weighed me down There ain’t no way on God’s green earth we can stay here in this town Everybody looks at us They know the places that we’ve been I hear the passing whispers saying here they go again I've been praying for a week now and it's gettin hard to see If I can count on your forgiveness for the man I used to be Guess it's just the ugly truth you can't out run the past I hear those little voices saying we will never last ©2015 Thomas Adams

INCREDIBLE!!! That guitar groove just sets it up from the first moment, and it never comes down! The energy just carries it along. Great chorus-really pays off. Guitar/Vocals/Mix all over the top. Great one Tom!! Take care. Greg

Hi Tom.
A superb track with a wonderful driving guitar sound and spot-on vocals.
A great mix mix with excellent stereo effects and loud without sounding over-compressed.
Got to be one of your best yet.
ROG.

Greg beat me to it,, all I wanted to say, but he says it so eloquently and spot on.
You can be very proud of this one.

Hi Tommy,
top notch again. Good write, self-evidently great vocals and harmonies and great playing.
Can't say it's my favourite because they are all outstanding.

Enjoyed this one from start to finish.

Tommy this is probably your best to date. Everything about this is pro all the way. Of course I have always been in envy of your guitar chops, your vocals and writing abilities and on this one you took them all over the top!
This is a keeper.

Man... who hasn't lived that song at least a couple of times?
I like everything about this.
Great perspective on a common issue everyone has been through. Loved those guitars since that really took this to a different level. Just the right level of verb to make them sound liquid. Sweet solo and fills.
Nice lyric writing and superb vocal work. Harmonies are great and at the correct levels.
Very satisfying song to listen to.
My only nits... the opening drums were a bit wimpy. And.... yeah, I know you were pushing the 4 minute mark... BUT....I would have busted that 4 minute point wide open..... it really needed one more instrumental tag with a slowdown (rit) to that last chord.... but hey.... just nits and personal opinions.

Tom,
Another winner.
Nice opening guitar lick. Nice, tasty little licks throughout. Great tone.
A good write. A whole bunch of good phrases, giving "good moments" over and over.
A good "singing" melody. Strong chorus.
Strong vocal. Strong mix.
An excellent listen (bunch of 'em...). Infectious. "Pop-y"...cool.

Notation Enhancements in Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Windows!
There are Notation Enhancements in the NEW Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Windows! These include:
•A new button in the Print Options dialog which lets you quickly print a "chords only" fake sheet. You can also access this from the right-click menu on the chord sheet.
•A new track type (Drums) is now available for The Melody and Soloist tracks.
•Clicking close to a stave line will put a note on the stave line instead of between stave lines. (Previously, you had to click extremely close to a stave line to insert a note on The line.)
•Double-clicking on the Standard mode Notation window (or on the time line in Editable or Staff Roll mode) plays the song from the current time location. Previously, it played the song from the beginning of the current bar.
•Holding down the [Ctrl] key and pressing the zoom in/out buttons results in finest possible incremental adjustment in size.
•In The Notation Windows Options dialog, The clefs split point asterisk indicates that C5* is middle C.
•Pressing The space bar plays the song from the current time location, not the current bar.
•The clefs split point can be set by the spin controls.
•The right-click menu in the Editable or Staff Roll mode Notation window has an option to change the current beat resolution. Previously, the only way to do this was to right-click on the time line.
•There's a keystroke entry notation mode - the 'N' mode, which lets you enter a melody entirely using keystrokes. The keystrokes are N to enter a note, up/down cursor to change its pitch, and left/right cursor to move the time line.
•You can now edit any track in the Event List Editor. When The dialog opens, it will show you the MIDI data in the current Notation track.
•You can quickly enter forced accidentals from the right-click menu.
We talk about these new features within our Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Windows®! New Features, RealTracks, and other content! video:
