Latest song from Chris Spruit and myself, something a little different than we normally do: Lift me up The band: Style used: cookin.sty Guitar: Fender Tele LIFT ME UP (by Chris Spruit) Monday is not kind and I get up in a haze Much too late to get things straight what shall I wear running up and downstairs Oh come on, what is wrong with my hair But You lift me up my darling you lift me up you lift me up my darling like the sweet black coffee in my morning cup Won’t catch the bus, oh what a mess, what a fuss The world is in such a bad state America has got a monkey typing twitter to hell my ear is ringing a bell But You lift me up my darling you lift me up you lift me up my darling like the sweet black coffee in my morning cup Morning is not kind and I woke up in a maze tell me please, so where are the keys The car broke down I've got no shoes on my feet look at this, I'm down on the street But You lift me up my darling you lift me up you lift me up my darling like the sweet black coffee in my morning cup sweet sugar sweet sweet sugar lift me up like the sweet black coffee in my morning cup Song is also up on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/blue-attitude/lift-me-up-featuring-chris-spruit All comments pro and con are welcome!

Dave & Chris,
Cool song. Catchy! - especially the chorus.
Nice work on the tracks. Good opening. The guitar work is nice - tasty solos... The organ sounds great - stands out nicely without getting in the way. The drum touches are nice.
Well sung. Nice harmonies.
Well done all 'round. Several listens.

Dave and Chris,
A very nice and clean blues/jazz rock song. Very nice vocals and that organ does wonders.

Hello BlueAttitude, Nice work on this! - Excellent quality in the vocals and sound. Can't wait to hear more. Keep it up! Thanks very much, Joe! If you want to hear more we have done 15 so far, all up on soundcloud. Very cool. Excellent backtrack. Tele was excellent and very cool tone. Vocal and lyric was excellent as well.. Thanks, Scott! Yeah, I just love the tele. Only had it a few months, I've always been mostly a strat guy. Makes me wish I bought one 20 years ago! I'm playing through the S-Gear amp simulator BTW.

Dave & Chris, Enjoying a few listens - a very upbeat way to get a grey day going. I liked the topical humour in the lyrics and the way the guitar cuts through the backing. All good!

Dave and Chris,
This is really happy and feelgood from the first bar onwards. I loved it. The backing is mixed to perfection and Chris's singing is an excellent fit.
You've both done a great job creating this. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Regards, Noel

Rob Thanks, Rob! Yes, can't beat having a B3 in the mix. I've used one in most of our songs, such a great sound. Dave & Chris, Enjoying a few listens - a very upbeat way to get a grey day going. I liked the topical humour in the lyrics and the way the guitar cuts through the backing. All good!
Robert
Thanks, Robert! Yes, more upbeat than what we normally do. It's nice to switch things up every so often

Most cool! Love the way the Booker T sounding intro morphed into the fusion feel Bob mentioned.
The vocals, guitar and the entire groove are hittin' the note!
This is one of the more inventive and unique sounding posts we've heard in a long time.
