Uh Oh Oh No She’s Gone Woke up at six AM still dark outside Make my way from our bed to the kitchen while I rub my eyes Turn to see if she’e still there And then I see her empty chair She said that she’d be leaving one day I’d be on my own Now every time I start to say us I remember I’m alone When I roll on down the road It seems like she’s riding along Then It hits me Uh oh Oh no She’s gone Looking down two cups in the sink I may never be the same I had my chances to make things right But they slipped right down the drain Turn to see if she’e still there And then I see her empty chair ©2022 Thomas Adams

Super song
Great backing track and guitar chops
I think your vocal should be a little louder but again that is just my opinion.

Tom,
Killer sound. Every instrument stands loud and proud. I'm always blown away by the acoustic guitar sound you get. Your electric sounds perfect. Drums and Bass are superb. I think the vocals are at just the right level.
A nice "she's gone" write. (the sink/drain thing is clever)
Gorgeous mix.
Great to have ya back!

Balance sounds good to me, Tom. I like the guitar riff too. My only sugg is that it's crying out for a short chorus after the second verse. Just a simple repeat of "Uh Oh Oh No ..." would do it.

An enjoyable listen man. Great vocals, strong lyrics, great band.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Hey Mario, Thanks for checking in. You are 100% spot on on the vocal volume. I kicked it up quite a bit. I got in a hurry and didn't give it time to settle in. Now I hear a few things I could have done better. Oh well, next time I will slow down. Thanks for your nice comments, Tom

Tom,
A very pleasant song to listen to, regardless of the subject of the lyrics. Your vocals are very good here, like the band. I liked how the bass cuts through the song. Did Marty helped you on this one?
I enjoyed it very much. I played it again 2 more times. Now it stays in my head for a long time!

Wow, very luscious sound, great arrangement and mix. Very pleasant vocals, I especially like the "Then it hits me..." part. Maybe bit too upbeat for a love lost song, but that is just my melancholy mood wanting to hear the song end with a minor chord Janne

I assume that's you on the guitar for the fills n trills. They really make the song complete,(though may be a little loud in the chorus). The harmonies are ace. There's a bit of a brittle build around 3.5kHz particularly when the sustained chords are behind the vocal. Terrific song, terrific performances too.

Hi Tom ...
What a cool country sound!
Even though your voice is much different from Richie McDonald's, I get somewhat of a Lone Star vibe from this. David Lee Murphy also comes to mind. I love the full, robust bass line. For me, everything about this says 1995 country at its best. Some contemporary nasmes could also push thisd yup the charts. But, no matter the other namnes, I doubt it would sound as good this.
Good to hear from ya!

fj I’m sure I mentioned this before. Logic has a built in effect that spreads acoustic guitar really wide. I add a little eq and use it on every song. You know I love those signature licks. Copy and paste is your friend. You only got to get it right one time! Same goes with repeating choruses and harmonies. Thanks for all your words of support. They mean a lot, Tom

Yep, you were missed, Tom. Man, this software is gold in your hands. Your guitars really top the bill, and the story lyrics are just perfect. Harmonies are so good.
