Quite a while back this thread was posted here,and gave me an idea for a song. I said I would demo it and post it here.Here is the thread LINK

Here is a link to the song LINK

It's Country,so If you don't care for Country Music,you may not care to listen,hell you might not care,anyway. Hope y'all like it.

Not bad for 4 chords and the truth.

Thanx! I think it actually uses 6 chords though.

You can play it with 5 to be honest

Glad you do! I think it is actually a better song for a female. Gonna re-do the vocals soon with a female singer. Only have to change the last line.

Not going to lie. It's not me.
It's a friend of mine,he actually sounds a lot like me though.
I liked the way he did the bridge better than my way.
I was trying to do a Roy Orbison/Ronnie Dunn type thing,and it didn't work as well as I wanted.

I don't want to put his name out here,but he's a good singer,he just has other irons in the fire.

Also,that's what's great about doing demos.
I write songs so I can hear other people do them,and it's great hearing their interpretations.
I have never wanted to be a performer,I just like writing and using the studio.

Whew. If I thought everybody here could just sing like that on demand I’d give up. Really liked the song . Very well done .

My version of your song has a cello , a brief violin, a bit more crescendo on the chorus and a female background singer, lol.

Great damn song . Very poignant.

Thank you man,really.
Of Course I hope someone with a big budget records it one day,and pretty much records it exactly as you said. I love a cello,but it's hard to find great players in these parts. Some mandolin would work well too,but scheduling prevented that.

I also need to add,that song really fell out of the sky,and I was lucky enough that it landed on me. It really wrote itself.
It 100% hit me while reading that thread,and was like a completed song. I aint sharing no credit though

Thank you man, I love using up those minor chords.it just works so well for interesting vocal parts.

and if you are in the 615,maybe you can catch me around some of the dives where I go pick sometimes.

Dude, I have that song,almost finished in the studio right now. It also has a riot and the po-po tear gasses everybody,but the guy gets the girl.

It also has some rocking guitar work,somewhere between CCR and ZZ Top,Ozark Mountain Daredevils,Bo Diddley and some bass straight outta Hell.

It's just a song demo though probably just going to go with programmed drums.

and it's so over the top,that I hope it can end that genre for good ,and we can get back to real Country Music.
