Hi All, I kicked this one off with a rhythm bed and first verse before getting stuck and sending the SEQ file over to Eddie. He upped the tempo a shade, wrote a further two verses and added a bridge. It was obvious that Eddie was gonna do the lead vocal better than I would, so we changed the key a few times and I re-recorded the backing. Somewhere along the line, this resulted in the guitars getting heavier and the track losing it's Pop feel. So, the lead vox is Eddie and I put in the harmony and BVs. There are two rhythm guitar Realtracks - RT362 and RT500 The other guitars and bass are live and the drums are sampled midi. The whole thing, from start to finish, was in Realband. TOO LITTLE TOO LATEYou're running round town with a new guy every day You're spending all my money, this time you're gonna have to pay Something's gotta give, something's gotta change Love is gonna have to wait Sorry won't do this time, 'cos it's too little too late You had a good run playing me for a fool I had about enough, now you're gonna learn my rules I can only bend so far before I break You've really got to get this straight Sorry won't do this time 'cos it's too little too late I'm only gonna say this just one more time So you'd really better concentrate I'm not gonna stand for these cheating games You know you're really tempting fate If I'm gonna be your man, you're gonna quit running around Your little game is over, there's a new sheriff in town Something's gonna give, something's gonna change Love is gonna have to wait Sorry won't do this time, 'cos it's too little too late Always grateful to those who have time to listen. Cheers, ROG

ROG & Eddie, Well, this guy is a real glutton for punishment!! I like the groove. The combination of guitars drives the rhythm nicely. The bass comes through very well. (I thought the drums could be louder ). Enjoyed the listen. fj

Yeah the Meatloaf comparison is very good.
This is just good old classic rock--great hook too.
Great job guys! Tons of fun!

What a tune! I thoroughly enjoyed this one. A great throwback to classic rock. Someone else mentioned Meatloaf, and I can definitely see where they are coming from. I love the progressions, I love the vocals, and it is perfectly catchy too. I wouldn't bat an eyelash if I heard this on a classic rock station. You guys should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

ROG & Eddie, That woke me up! I really enjoy the dirty guitars and energy of the backing... the live instruments sound great. Good catchy chorus too - well done.

Nice rocker. Like the hook a lot. Good job on this one. I do agree with Floyd, the drums could come up just a tad.
Really enjoyed this.

So great rocking groove, that I don't mind losing pop feel. Reminds me of Status Quo. Great effect on vocals.

This is a song which neither Eddie or I would have written on our own, but that's what a collaboration is all about. It all helps the learning process. Thanks for the listen and for kicking off the reviews. Cheers, ROG.

Eddie just followed my lead when I got blocked. Glad you liked it. I'll look again at the drums. Many thanks, ROG.

I like the treatment on the main vocal though it's a little too up front for my taste. Lift the drums a little please. Nice collab gents. Very enjoyable.
