Every Conversation

Every conversation that I hear in my commute
seems to say we've all gone mad.
Seems that no one wants to listen. They're careless with the truth.
There's no surprise they look so sad.

Everybody's saying there's no way to avoid
the chaos that's about to come.
They're all stubbornly insisting they'd rather all's destroyed.
Their hearts it seems have all gone numb.

Every conversation has got to have two sides.
Some give and take from both applies.
To have communication the meaning never hides.
Or else you'll walk away with lies.

Solomon was clever when they asked him to be judge.
He wisely took the baby's side.
So then what we need is wisdom to give both sides a nudge.
Then we'll close our vast divide.

We're seeking out advice from someone who is wise
--a voice to lift this Babel cloud.
One without clear ties, removing all the lies.
A quiet voice that's heard so loud.
TAG: And then the conversation dies.

Hi Marty,

Do you sleep now and then?
Man, another great song from your hand.
Very good lyrics, to start with.
You said it all very well, even picked up Solomon :-)
I enjoyed that, but it has to be an important message for us all too.
And for me you succeded on that level.

The music is kind of happy, while the message isn't. In a way two extremes.
And the band is good, that solo with a slide guitar (I presume?) was lovely.
You let me think of Captain Beefhard, Yellow brick road, but only in the verses...

Anyway, I enjoyed it and hope our conversation never dies,

Hans

Hi Marty.
I like the simple tracks, allowing the lyrics to be heard and the resonator instrumental break was refreshing.

Hey Marty ...

Love it! It reminds me somewhat of "Those Were Days" from back in the early sixties. I think it's the bouncy mandolin that gives it that vibe.

What bothers me the most about conversations these days is the two sides attack each other personally rather than attacking the opinion of the other side. There's nothing wrong with vigorously disagreeing with the opinion of the other side, but there's no reason to attack the person. Enough said about that, I guess. I could elaborate much more, as it's one of the things that bothers me the most about our current society and political structure. So, I'll digress.

The backing tracks are so crisp and solid. They compliment each other so nicely, as well as supporting the vocal. Everything is exactly as it should be in this composition.

Best to you ...

Alan

Marty,

This is an excellent message / protest song about the times we live in.

Great vocal and overall production. You are in top form!

Well, Hans. we're in bed 9 hours a night. Not saying how much of that involves actual sleep, and I don't mean that like I did when we were in our 20s. Thanks, Hans! Even gave Solomon's story a different perspective. I like the New Orleans approach to music: Even the funeral dirges can have happy music. The solo was the resonator.

Thanks, Vic! I like your take about the lyrics being heard by keeping the music simple.

Ah, the 60s. Those were the days. Still, glad they're in the rearview. Yeah, feeling the need to vigorously disagree tends to close the ears on the brain side much like being yelled at turns off all that on the listener's side. Thanks so much, Alan. I see I have some new old stuff in my email this morning and can't wait to get there. Thanks.


Enjoy whatever happens!

The bouncy mandolin is very cool and drives this song in a way that a Marty bass would.
I quite like the RT bass but...
A really good band and no clutter of the melody or narrative.
It's weird how folk seem so resigned yet still go on their commute...
Really bright, clear song with a ominously clear message.
COOL bananas.

Thanks, Ray! Much appreciated. Each of the BiaB bassists are far better than I am. This guy was saying what I wanted to say, so... My mom-in-law eats a lot of frozen bananas.

Marty, we were just saying a while back (and have a song in the works) that it is too bad that the “middle ground” has almost disappeared these days.

Fine write and supporting video indeed.

Great band and your vocals sit in most nicely on our monitor soundstage.

The dobro was an excellent choice.
Hey, Bud said he oughta ship you his upright since he so rarely plays it smile

Marty...what a great message for a song and a great delivery of that message...I love this! and that resonator solo is killer...the best track I've heard in a while...the minor key and the mandolin gives it a gypsy flavor which is pretty tasty to my buds...just another stellar tune and performance (with a great video too!)

You got to love those minor blues progressions, especially in G minor, you have the entire neck to use. Good work modulating the half step for a bar or two. Like I have told you before, love your voice, very clear, on key and just a touch of verb. Good job on the recording work to.

Thanks, Dave. When writing this I was thinking of us playing on it, but... well, I needed it to fil out the last album. Still would like to hear our version.

Sorry, guys, I have no idea what you're talking about.

--Okay, I'm back. Just kidding. Your comments always make me feel better. Bud, thanks for the offer, but... I used to have an upright, but it was either sell it or buy a bigger car. I play sitting down now. I've seen a couple acoustic players play on stools, but I know I'd get lost in the music and fall off.

Thanks, Dan. I like that pun metaphor "tasty to my buds." Yes, you get the message. Unfortunately the only ones to likely get it are those who already understand it.

The lyrics are just so good that they scare me!
Great vocal and backing band.
IMHO this is your best to date.

Loved it.

Thank you, Donny! I was never a singer because I couldn't really play and sing at the same time. hehe My best quality now is knowing how and when to punch-in. smile

Awesome tune Marty. What a cool groove. I was just chatting with Robert the other day. I was telling him how amazed how he cool it was to be able to come up with so many excellent lyrics. Cool talent to have. This applies to you and allot of members in the forum. Loved the dobro. Cool add to the song.

Good message, sad but true, too much talking and too little thinking, the loudest voice wins. I wish that one day people could ask AI the third opinion and the logic would be something we couldn't argue against, but we are not there yet.
Enjoyed the band which has nice old European folky feel. The solo guitar is a good selection. And your voice fits also this style. Nice chord progresssion especially in the bridge.
