Hi All, Here's another new song - this is called The Ricochet. Let the wind keep blowing Let’s see what it leaves behind Long days long nights without you as my compass In the world of my dreams, in the sounds of the city In the sun when it gleams, in the shame and the pity I believe what I believe but I bounce like a ricochet Give the morning it’s due Give it space to just wake up Stars like diamonds stars in your eyes all fade out Like a day full of hours, like a night getting gritty A box full of flowers, like the words once so witty I recoil from the force and I deflect like a ricochet Let the radio play Let’s wait to hear some Dylan From the vinyl and the plastic I hear your voice In the words of regret, in the notes and the chords In the ways we forget, in the love we can’t afford I get stuck in the groove then I skip like a ricochet Like a ricochet In your direction In your direction BIAB Tracks: 1592: Bass, Electric, Pop16ths Ev 065 1599: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Ev 065 3184: Guitar, Acoustic Rhythm GrungeSlow Ev 060 1597: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm, Ev 065 843: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm, Ev 065 2534: Piano, Electric, HeldChords Ev 060 3528: Vocal On Break, CoolHigh2, Britt Savage SW16 075 RealDrums: RockHardLA^1-a:Snare, HiHat,b:Snare As always - thanks for listening!

Raining here today so I'm spending time here in the User Showcase. Really enjoyed "Ricochet". Good band and super performance.
Edit: band not bad.... old fingers....

Read the lyrics first without music because I really like how you write, Bob. They only got better when I pushed play. Great band choice, and your vocal is always perfect. There is a dirge-like quality to this one that is more nostalgic than sad. Much enjoyed!

Bob,
You are one heck of a songwriter! I am impressed every time I listen and can't believe how fast you come back with another winner like this! Love the arrangement and chosen instrumentation! It all works beautifully!
Thanks, TB

I like the way you build up the song, especially the way the drums start is really cool. The only thing I miss is a chorus, I think your song should have one. But I guess you wanted it this way, so it's all good. I like it even without chorus

Hey Bob, This is great! You are really on a roll man! Hey, this song title seems familiar, and I can almost swear I have heard it before, unless I am trippin'. Was there ever an original version of this, or I have stayed too long at Woodstock??

David, Thanks so much. Appreciate the kind words. Some years back I had an all acoustic song with a "ricochet" theme in it. This is a completely new song, but you have an outstanding memory! And you can never stay in Woodstock too long... Bob

Great write, excellent vocal. Love the ping-pong guitar between the speakers, echoing the lyrical idea. In the words of regret, in the notes and the chords
In the ways we forget, in the love we can’t affordNice!
