Description:
Everybody knows it.

Everybody's probably been there.

My turn.

Lyrics:
Stayed up all night now on the telephone,
callin' all your friends wonderin' where you have gone.

You finally came in 'bout 7 AM.
Looking pretty worn out, you were smellin' of gin.

Gave me 27 reasons why you did me wrong,
but I'm tired of your lying and I got to be movin' on,
Yah, I'm tired of your lyin' going to be on my way.

Take good care of yourself
and I'll be on my way.

Standin' at the bus stop
sun is on my face; everything I own, a six string
and suitcase.
Just waitin' for the man now he's gonna take me away.

Then in pulls in your sister
in her brand new Chervolett.

She through my suitcase in the back
looked at me and said,
"Give you 27 reasons why you should stay.
Hop into my car now and we can start today."

"I'll give you 27 reasons (baby) and we can start
today."

nice playing. definitely a nice blues sound. the vocal style fits nicely, but they feel like they are missing a little something. they have the right style to them just feels like the emotion of the song could come out a little more. other than that a nice track.

Gets right down... &mdash 04/28/08 - 04:21:58 PM
...to the nitty gritty! "What a BIG SOUND you have" cried the Papa Bear! Ha ha...

Great recording. Great sounding guitars. Really good job on the vocals. Persuasive delivery. Upfront where they belong. KUDOS man.

Be well!

Cool &mdash 05/03/08 - 06:00:03 AM
I really like your guitar sound here.

I would've liked to hear a little variation in the drums every once in a while - if not but a crash cymbal here and there - but that's a VERY minor nit.

A slightly larger one (still nothing critical) is the ending - I think you should either have a complete ending or fade it out a little slower. This was a tad too abrupt for my taste.

But all in all a good performance and a nice song.

All of this is new to me,recording and stuff.I think about the guitars and singing to much and other aspects of the song are forgotten. Thanks for your advice and for listening.

you done gave this mississippi boy the blues mowman &mdash 05/05/08 - 10:59:59 AM
yeah this is real solid. "i'll give you 27 reasons you should stay "at the end man thats a classic kind of blues line good job. the musicianship and production is really top notch, but i have to admit i would have loved to have heard some really gritty electric guitar come in and saw us all down,or maybe some harmonica instead.

[ Reply to This ]
Thanks &mdash 05/13/08 - 03:58:12 PM
Ya I put some electric growl guitar in there. Not happy with sounds I was getting. Kinda new at this recording stuff so I just keep tryin.
