This is one of the many songs going round my head from when I was young. No idea whose version I heard and used to sing along to back then, but it was written by Larry Collins and Alex Harvey.
(EDIT: Done some research. It was Dottie West's…
Nice version of a great old song...
Alex Harvey is regarded as the writer around here. Saw him at the Rubaiyat in Dallas back in 1975. More recently , at the Blue Bird in Nashville. He just came in unannounced with his buddies and sort of took over the place. Tanya Tucker was 13 when she recorded this song and it was what made her famous until she got too into her Elvis thing. Then Married Glen Campbell and that went real bad.

I like the Tanya Tucker version. I have to tell you this is pretty professional and all, but I sort of wish you guys had traded verses to sing rather than just lines. I wanted to hear the particular singer go on a little longer. But it is great cover of a great old song.

OK, I'm hooked. I just hit the replay button again.
Great vocal synergy between the two of you, and the resonator guitar . . . well . . . it just brings it over the top.

Ah! Tanya Tucker - that was the name!!
And, er, DAW? What DAW?! No DAWs in use here! lol
I usually synch vocals by singing them again until they're right... We didn't really have that luxury, though - in the end I've got quite fond of the "rough and ready" vibe on it (it did bug me at first!)

This is one of my favourite songs of Helen Reddy's (although that's already a cover of the Tanya Tucker version)!
Nice, bluesy rendition. :) The vocals are heavily out of sync though - you should fix that in your DAW.

So come down, and fade away,
The lights are still hanging from last holidays.
And the place in the dark, we'd occupy,
Is leaving my heart, feeling nullified.
So slow down, and walk with me,
Dark empty lanes, under heavy leafless trees…
Wow, apparently I've listened to this before, but I don't remember... (many thanks to galinka's recent favourites for finding it again :) )
Good song and vocals and all... but on this listen, it's striking me that those guitars are amazing.
Every 3 years, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA) asks teens from across the country to meet up in a city to worship, fellowship, learn, and serve. This year, it was New Orleans. 33000 youth gathered together to demonstrate God…
Superb - love the chorus.
I'm actually one of the ones who heard but decided not to listen. But I can hear that this song and performance express the message almost perfectly.
Beautiful song :)
I wrote this music and realised that what I had created sounded like Air on the G String (BWV 1068) by J S Bach. It's not finished (I will re-record it).
I hadn't read the about while I was listening, and I was thinking the title must be a pun...
Love it (the track and the title). Looking forward to hearing the finished version.
Wow.
I was listening to your stuff the other day. Completely unlike anything I'm exploring, but something was grabbing me.
Hearing this new one made me click "Follow" :)
This song's about why sometimes you have to live your life, even if other people don't like it. Yeah, and I like Shakespeare too.
LYRICS:
I don't know why you won't speak to me
I could use a little sympathy
I don't know why there must be…
So, I'll drink up, beautiful,
I'll leave bottles, up and down the coast,
When I get to that light house,
I'll burn it down, and laugh.
Skeletons rise up to meet me,
In a place where the waves touch the beach,
And hollowed bones, broken…
Dug up another old one. Still trying to some new songs sorted, can't seem to get into gear. Old age ???? Oh by the way, just a piece of fiction, me & the old gal is on 38yrs of marriage !!!! You less for murder !!!!!!!!!
Might be a piece a fiction, but I've got one of those pieces of paper somewhere ("it says right here we're not married anymore"), and this kind of sums up some of the emotions that such a piece of paper evokes... lol
Nice song :)
Woah Yeah :)
Love this.
On this one it sounds like you need to find a bassist who thinks/plays like you guys do... I'm too busy unfortunately... and I live too far away... (and I'm not good enough neither) lol
Backing track for Coz I love you by Slade, this was my first attempt at doing a cover version. It's a lot different from the original.
this is the new version with a few added instruments and the vocals ...
The Inappropriate Question
G C/Gbass
She said, “I can see that you’re hurting.
And I can see that you are wearing a ring.
Perhaps an inappropriate question,
but I’d like to ask you something.
Soon I will be a grand mother
I have a husband…
So, I'll drink up, beautiful,
I'll leave bottles, up and down the coast,
When I get to that light house,
I'll burn it down, and laugh.
Skeletons rise up to meet me,
In a place where the waves touch the beach,
And hollowed bones, broken…
Outside this motel room, there is a world gone man. Mortals eating the flesh off the face of other mortals. Mad shooters mass murdering strangers for no apparent reason. Well, baby, I say we just stay here, you and me, make love, and forget about…

A couple of pros. Nice track ya'll.
Sneaking some collab action in. Nice , oh so very nice! Makes me happy to hear this. ;)
Nice job, wonderful harmony.....
Spectacular vocals & harmonies , just so good - a wonderful pairing guys
I like the Tanya Tucker version. I have to tell you this is pretty professional and all, but I sort of wish you guys had traded verses to sing rather than just lines. I wanted to hear the particular singer go on a little longer. But it is great cover of a great old song.
Great sound :)
i dig you man!
cool raw rock an roll bro!
Nailed it.
Very nice production :)
Nice one guys,like it!
OK, I'm hooked. I just hit the replay button again. Great vocal synergy between the two of you, and the resonator guitar . . . well . . . it just brings it over the top.
Fab' vocals and a spotless production make a great song!

Your original songs are the best ones. Great stuff, Andy!

Nice one :)
Wow!! Utterly wonderful
Yep. Mighty fine.
Oooh yeah. Like it.
I'm loving this accordian playing
Wow, apparently I've listened to this before, but I don't remember... (many thanks to galinka's recent favourites for finding it again :) ) Good song and vocals and all... but on this listen, it's striking me that those guitars are amazing.
And I LOVE this one.
So the gypsies dance to Deep Purple then? Like this one a lot.

Yep, back for another listen. Fabulous, stark, and beautiful.
Might be a piece a fiction, but I've got one of those pieces of paper somewhere ("it says right here we're not married anymore"), and this kind of sums up some of the emotions that such a piece of paper evokes... lol Nice song :)
Woah Yeah :) Love this. On this one it sounds like you need to find a bassist who thinks/plays like you guys do... I'm too busy unfortunately... and I live too far away... (and I'm not good enough neither) lol
Yeah :)
Wow (big Slade fan here), this is REALLY interesting. I like it a lot. Can't wait to hear the vocals on it.
Brilliant. "How do we know that a promise is anything more than a wish..." Woo This lonely little song needs a lot more attention.
I think this is so good I can't figure out anything sensible to say. I LOVE this song and how you've recorded it.
Oh yeah... love it, my sentiments entirely :)
