Wow - I really connected with this one. It has a very somber tonality to it. Dark and genuine. There's some truly standout lyrics on this, and your vocal delivery of them is emotion. Top notch stuff. Definitely getting an early-mid 90's vibe on this one.
Great work and thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Robert,
"Closer Than A Tattoo" - One of the most intriguing titles I've ever heard!! Awesome.
And a very interesting write. Very original.
"said we`re never going back with our bodies and with ink we`d stitch our fate make it fact an indelible link"
Strong.
The BAND on this is really nice. A good mix, And your vocal is "confident". One of your best, I think.
I like it.

Floyd, I appreciate the positive review! Nicely done Robert!! Pretty song, and some beautiful lyrical images...reminds me a little of Leonard Cohen! Vocal is very emotive and beautiful. Like Floyd said, great title. You should listen to This Tattoo (great song by David Wilcox). Great stuff here!! Take care. Greg Greg, Listening to David Wilcox now - sounds good,thanks for the tip...and your kind thoughts on the song. I always enjoy the listen and know that I'll like what you write
I'm a fan
you are a creative and great writer
I don't always love the phrasing but it makes it uniquely you
this is a fine write, storytelling is what we're supposed to be about
love it,
Kenny
Kenny, I would trade a few of my lyrics for some of your great phrasing! Seriously though, I find the first way I sing a song gets stuck- I`m not flexible enough to hear alternatives unless someone points out something sounds off ( by then its already in the can). Have to work on that. Your very positive comments mean a great deal... I have no other audience. Robert

Cool the way you weaved in those longer lines.
The write is very nice and chock full of great imagery. It would make a terrific contemplative video.
"clearer than a picture closer than a tattoo"
That is, amongst many, a very strong statement!
The above plus a fine vocal and mix makes for a most enjoyable listen(s)!

Great work and thanks for sharing! Deryk, Glad you connected with this,thanks for your comments. 90`s though? I think I missed that decade in music, so will take your word for it. Robert

J&B J&B, Thanks for those listens and your comments! Looks like videos will have to wait `til the songwriting dries up, but I like the idea. Robert

Robert, IMHO this is one of your best and most commercially appealing tunes! Awesome lyrics, melody and chord construction. I really liked your use of that steel for the solo! Thanks, Torrey

Robert,
This is absolutely terrific! Your lyrics paint very vivid pictures and they are supported by an excellent musical backing. You vocals also shine brilliantly on this one. From creation to production, what I'm hearing through my headphones right at this minute is quality.
All the best, Noel

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
