Title: Baby Please Don't Go Away by Oldrottenhead
Post by: Oldrottenhead on September 07, 2017, 10:38:11 AM
I had intended this one to be a wee short one for the under 2 minute fest but got carried away.

It is what it is.

I would climb a mountain if you asked me to
I'd do anything for you
I would take a bullet that was meant for you
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Away
I will dedicate my life to you
I'd never let you in harms way
If you don't feel safe I will rescue you
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Away
There ain't no one else like you
No one can touch you
And when you're standing by my side
It fills my heart
With pride
I'd dance with you until I dropped
And pray the music never stopped
So save the last waltz for me
Baby please don't go
Baby please don't go
Away
Baby Please Don't Go Away

Sounds great James,
Love the acoustic guitar.
Well done.
Reminds me of Jimmy Nail, style.

Nice one James!

I like the well recorded acoustic rhythm guitar.

Very good lyrics, tells a story.

Yes well worth working this one up a bit. That's my worry if I try an under 2min song, think i am bound to keep going till i fell its done!!

This is great, lovely vibe kinda carries you along gently, sounds like you got great value for money for that Woolies strat.

Yep, first thought was Paolo Nutini would like to do this song, both the rthymn guitar and in some parts the vocals, gave me the Nutini vibe.

I'm loving the sound of the strummed acoustic, I can never strum right, which hit home to me when I tried to cover "Candy"

You've got it down to a T.

Great work

Cheers
Ronnie
