I Still Do - RePostI originally posted this almost 4 years ago. I've not had much time to create a lot of new music, so I hope this one sounds okay and everyone is okay with me reposting an older song. Any and all comments appreciated. My time here has been limited but trying to do a little catching up as I can. I Still Do © 2017 Alan D. David, BMI (v1) The sky gets gloomy, as the clouds roll in That’s when I know, you’re back in town in again The thunder rattles, and the leaves begin to shake The wind starts swirling, and frost begins to form Then lightning crackles, you’re the perfect storm The ground starts trembling, just like an earthquake CHORUS And when you left, I thought that was goodbye But now I know, I told myself a lie You made me hurt, and you treated me like dirt Oh I wish I didn’t love you But baby I still do (v2) Don’t know the reason, I can’t explain Why I still love you, when you caused me all that pain God only knows, why I wish you’d never gone I hear my heart, then I listen to my head They say forget you, find another love instead But I just can’t find a way, a way for moving on INSTRUMENTAL VERSE CHORUS And when you left, I thought that was goodbye But now I know, I told myself a lie You made me hurt, and you treated me like dirt Oh I wish I didn’t love you But baby I still do TAG Baby I still do File:I Still Do Key=F , Tempo 105, Length (m:s)=3:16 Style is _DRVCBAL.STY (Slow Driving Country Ballad ) RealTracks in style: 366:Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065 RealTracks in style: ~~703:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Spirited Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 803:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm DrivingCountryBalladClean Ev 065 RealTracks in style: 806:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm DrivingCountryBalladDirty Ev 065 RealTracks in song: ~669:Guitar, Slide, Background EasySouthern Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 1669:Pedal Steel, Soloist CountryPaul Ev 120 RealDrums in style: NashvilleEven16^5-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride

Four years? Heck, four weeks is more than enough time to pass for me to forget that I'd ever heard a given song.  Nice song, glad to hear it (again?).

Never heard the original but, this is a great song.
I like the writing on this and the catchy hook.
Band sounds good vocal has a unique cutting quality that makes it sit nicely in the mix.
Well done!

Alan,
A good song with a good, basic get-the-song-across backing.
Always nice to hear a pedal steel solo.
A good mix. Enjoyed the listen.
Hope y'all are doing well.

It's new to me. Sounds good. Reminds me of a Dylan formatted song. Cool. Nice use of the band too.

Hi Alan,
I don't mind if you remake older songs, as they are good it's good!
And your song has a nice melody, tempo, band, vocals and lyrics. I enjoyed listening!
I had to smile on the last lines of the chorus. Nicely said, but is also gives mixed feelings...
While typing my lines your song still plays in my head.
That is the feeling songs must give!
Send my greetings to Di,
Hans

Hi Alan,
I'm glad you re-posted this one. I haven't heard many songs of yours with you as a cocalist, and I remember that each time you posted one you mentioned that you were not happy with your vocals.
Hearing this one I think that you should consider to come up with a non-instrumental far more often - I definitely like your singing style. In it's fragileness it sounds so ... ah .. true and honest, no frills, just transporting the emotion of these (very well written!) lyrics perfectly.
When I listened to it, Maha incidentally crossed the room, suopped and listened, too, without saying a word. Then she said, 'Look here, goosebumps...'
Musically, I think, this song is somehow perfect - everything's in the pocket, that PSG solo is grand. radio stuff !
Really, really good !
All the best to Di and you,
Stefan
