Title: Lancelot Lies Bleeding
Post by: Ron D Bowes on December 28, 2023, 11:40:10 AM
Wrote this one just before Christmas. Riff came first. Originally going to be a western theme, but I decided I had done a whole batch of them. "Romeo is bleeding" sprang into my head, but i knew that was a film title. From that I thought about what character I could insert instead and I rested upon Lancelot.
So, hope everyone had a great Christmas (mine was crap btw) and this will definetly be my last track before the new year LOL. Promise!

Lena Olin was trying to reach you. She had a somekind of inside job for you...

Crappy Christmas? Ain't they all. If you're young enough you're crapping in your pants, if you're older you're running around like a headless chicken doing all kinds of Christmas chores... Then if you get further in the game it's back to the diapers again :/

Just can't win. But this song sure is a winner.

That guitar riffing in this one is especially inspired.

You have this killer rhythm thing going that sis akin to the guitars in Heart's "Even it Up." Great tune, strong vocals, always love your background vocals. My only niggle would be the slapback in that middle-eight, only because I suddenly couldn't understand you.
