Hi guys, I'm posting a new track. I may have a few odds and ends to do before I leave it alone, but sometimes it is better to back away for a few days and let it stew. I'm always interested in any feedback from the many experts on this forum. I was listening to some old classic country tracks a few weeks ago and came across Faron Young's "Hello Walls". I decided to do something similar, but with emotions instead of structural features. Same old "wife gone, I'm brokenhearted" tale that is so common to country music. Just a new take, or is it? I hope you like it.

Hello Trouble

Hello Trouble.
I haven't seen you in some time
seems the only time we meet is when
I'm out of my mind
well hello Mr. Teardrop,
I see you've brought along all your friends
The minute she walked out my door
I knew that you'd be coming in

chorus

I didn't want to love her,
but my heart got in the way
and I don't want to miss her,
but I guess I will any way
and Hello Mr. Loneliness.
I see you waiting out around the bend
I tried my best to hold you back
but you might as well come on in

Hell Heartache. I've been expecting you.
I've got me a brand new broken heart
so I might be needing you
I've got a whole new kind of loneliness
the kind you don't ever lose
I guess I'll have to buy me a cheap guitar
learn ow to sing the blues

repeat chorus

Another good song Gary...
I always like your writes...
Good job....

This tune reminded me of an old George Jones song...
So I looked it up & was surprised to see who was singing harmony with him...

Loved this tune Gay. What a cool vocal. Do I hear a hint of George J in there. Very cool indeed. Well done...

Good song.
Good arrangement and vocal performance too.
I think the intro was too sudden and too loud.
A bit of gentle biuld around the steel would be cool.
The drums are far too loud and the rim shot really bangs through the mix.
It's a common rock staple to have the snare and kick as loud as the vocal & solo but it;s less so in country - even honky tonkin' songs.
Cool though.


Cheers

Nicely done - it gives off those classic, old school country vibes. The groove is solid, and there's some spectacular progressions here. Loved your vocals too!

Thanks for sharing smile

good old country..... back when country was country music.

Every now and then I need to get a fix, or a slap in the face to come back to my senses with this stuff they call country these days......

Nice job. I used to play in a band that played tunes like this and the crowd just loved it.

Oh yea, super good old country, and I love it!

I also could hear George Jones sing this one and in fact when you started singing I thought it was him!

We need more country like this on the radio up here!

If I heard this at a record store I would have purchased it, its that good!

You should so an CD of songs like this.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Gary,
So darn authentic with some zingers in the lyrics.
The highlight is your vocal- you`ve got the heartache right up front.
RayC makes a good point about tweaking drum volume, but its a keeper song & performance.
